About Prezzo Italian Restaurant Canterbury

Pizza options include Tuscan BBQ Pizza, The Spicy One, and a four cheese pizza, alongside pasta dishes such as spaghetti carbonara and the Spaghetti with King Prawns. A separate kids' menu runs alongside the main list. Staff seat guests and take orders at the table, and dessert is ordered after the main course, with a strawberry and vanilla shortbread sundae among the options.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often single out the friendly table service, with one waitress praised repeatedly as bubbly and full of smiles, and another server who checked ingredients and adapted meals around a diner's dietary requirements. Pizza follows close behind, with diners naming the four cheese, the Tuscan BBQ and The Spicy One, which one reviewer says comes with lots of chilli. The chicken pastachini, spaghetti carbonara and a big-portioned chicken escalope also earn praise, and desserts are called lovely. Complaints are fewer but specific. One reviewer found the chicken strip starter tasted like cardboard, and another found the strawberry and vanilla shortbread sundae too cold for sensitive teeth. A walk-in diner faced a long wait for food and received an apology from the server. On Mother's Day, one diner was confused to be greeted as Sir while her daughter was called Madam, and was unsure about returning. One birthday diner took home free cake, and another table was given complimentary chilli fries by the chefs.

    “We stopped here whilst in Canterbury without a reservation. We were told the wait for food would be 30-35 minutes. We expected to wait. I had the chicken strip starter with fries and my husband had spaghetti carbonara. We did wait a while for our food, but it arrived. I had strawberry/vanilla shortbread sundae, it was very nice, I did leave some it was very cold on my sensitive teeth. I wouldn't have the chicken strips again they tasted like cardboard. My husband enjoyed his spaghetti carbonara, although it was £18.50 for a standard size... Ffion apologised for our long wait, we thought this was nice of her, but we knew we had to wait. We left Ffion a tip.”

    “Tess, our waitress, was absolutely brilliant. She came with all smiles and brought a warm, uplifting atmosphere to our evening. The food was delicious and beautifully served. We were kindly given complimentary chilli fries from the lovely chefs. Everything was very, very nice, and I would love to return soon. Again, Tess was amazing and really brought a spark to our experience.”

    “We visited today for lunch and had a lovely experience. Tess looked after us and was absolutely brilliant—really friendly, bubbly and on it the whole time!! We were also seen to by Mr. X who made sure everything ran smoothly and we had some good conversations during our visit. On top of that the food was lovely. (We had Chicken Pastachini, Tuscan BBQ Pizza & The Spicy One Pizza (lots of chilli 🌶️ ❤️) Service like that makes all the difference! 🔥 Thank you! 🙏 We will be back again soon!”

    “The restaurant was quiet as it was over a bank holiday. I prefer it like that tbh. Place was clean & tidy. Served by a very pleasant, friendly lady, Lucia. Food was spot-on, had pizza (must admit for the first time in decades), really tasty. Dessert was equally lush. No problem using our taste card. An enjoyable evening.”
