Prego Restaurant is right the heart of Ponsonby Rd where for over 20 years it has become known for its slick friendly bistro service in a buzzy atmosphere.

Since 1986, Prego’s unpretentious approach to Italian cuisine has entrenched Prego as an enduring and much loved ‘local’ that is highly regarded by critcs and diners alike.

The extensive Prego menu features traditional Italian cuisine, along with a regularly revised specials menu to satiate the appetites of diners interested in a more modern skew.

Prego incorporates courtyard dining and is fully licenced, offering a rewarding range of wine to accompany the cuisine.

Absolutely delightful!

I went to Prego for lunch with my boyfriend yesterday and took the only free table for two in the courtyard. The waitresses were all very efficient and friendly. We could tell that they were properly trained from the way they handled the dishes.

We had garlic bread, seafood pizza and calamari, which were all very delicious. The garlic bread and seafood pizza had a nice crisp, while the calamari was very tender with a beautiful light golden yellow finish. The calamari was the best that I have ever had!

The bill for our lunch was of great value considering the high quality of food that we had and their fantastic service.

I would have loved to order dessert but was very full. I will just have to go back!

Was lucky enough to go to Prego on Saturday night, enjoyed every minute from the funny bartender to every last drop of the Grasshopper Rock Pinot Noir. The food was excellent also, I could have shared the mussels for the entree, but still had room for the crispy skinned snapper on a lovely risotto – even though I was about to pop I couldn’t miss out on the ice-cream for dessert. Can’t wait to go back next time we’re in Auckland.

Prego is about as old as my wife’s car and still continues to achieve a level of excellence day after day.

Having eaten there at least 4 times in the past year usually going for the pasta or stone oven pizza which are always great. I have to tell you about the beetroot carpaccio I had there last year – one of the best first course of the year for me! And I am fortunate enough to eat out a lot and in different countries. So big pat on the back for being so good at what you do and thank you!

After more than 20 years most of Auckland will have already been at least once, but if you haven’t then give it try. Service, price and great energy will work their magic and make you even happier.
