About Prego

Prego is an Italian restaurant on North View in Bristol, serving pizza, pasta and Italian mains in a modern dining room with dark wood furnishings. Starters draw on bruschetta, calamari fritti and truffle and mushroom arancini, while mains run through pasta such as rigatoni, linguine and conchiglioni. A 3-course set menu is offered, with a midweek set menu option for those looking to eat outside peak times. The bar list includes a Spritz, Negroni, Old Fashioned and Espresso Martini, alongside a Sardinian Vermentino by the glass. Waitstaff run table service across the 47-dish menu. The restaurant opens daily, and reservations are required. The combination of set menu pricing and a full cocktail list places Prego between a casual pasta stop and a fuller evening out, depending on how a table chooses to order.

Customer Review Summary

Diners repeatedly point to the bruschetta and calamari fritti as the starters to beat, with pasta mains like conchiglioni alla Norma, crab linguine, and rigatoni also drawing praise for being well-seasoned and generously portioned. The set lunch and midweek menus, three courses around £18 to £23, come up again and again as excellent value, and several mention returning regularly for date nights or birthdays thanks to consistent quality and friendly, attentive service. A few find the dessert selection unremarkable or the pasta slightly undercooked on one visit, and one reviewer felt the space did not capture an authentic Italian spirit despite being welcoming. One diner reports overhearing a server make disparaging comments about their table, leaving them upset after a costly meal and unwilling to return. Most others, however, describe staff going out of their way even during a full house, closing out visits with repeat bookings and birthday celebrations built around the food.

    “We look forward to our Prego date nights ever other week. It’s reliable and high quality, which is rare these days.”
  • James Davis
    “The most amazing lunch. Everything tasted great. Good menu. Good prices. Staff really friendly. Great atmosphere. But above all the food was excellent.”

    “I used to come to Prego all the time as it has always been one of my favourite restaurants in Bristol. Unfortunately I won’t be returning as last night I had a very bad experience with the service. We overheard the girl serving us loudly making horrible comments about us to the other staff and it made us feel very uncomfortable and unwelcome. I’ve never had an experience as bad as this, especially when we paid over £150 for the meal and drinks. I’m really upset about this and it completely ruined our meal. Won’t be returning.”
  • Laura Boutle
    “Wow! The best £18 I’ve ever spent on dining out. The bruschetta and rigatoni was to die for. Food heaven! Well done Prego Team - and especially our server, Scarlet, who was on a trisl this evening - and was soooii awesome!!!”
  • Mick Dickinson
    “First time at Prego—and what a delight. Unpretentious, relaxed service and extremely well-cooked and presented Italian food. Don't usually find myself in this part of Bristol but definitely would return! We started with Bruschetta with slow-cooked rabbit ragu with pancetta and peas, and Calamari fritti with aioli and lemon. The pasta mains were Conchiglioni alla Norma with roasted aubergine and red pepper, San Marzano tomato, crushed almonds, and parmesan and Wye Valley asparagus, Italian pea, mascarpone and pesto with lumaconi with parmesan. Treated ourselves with a carafe of the Grillo from Sicily. Top marks!”
