Prego

Prego has been a cornerstone of Auckland's Italian food scene since 1986, embodying the essence of Italian cuisine with its warm, friendly service and classic dishes. This vibrant spot is more than just a restaurant; it's a place where every visit feels like a special occasion, devoid of any pretension, and where the atmosphere buzzes with the palpable excitement of guests enjoying their time. The restaurant's ability to cater to all dining occasions, from quick lunches to hearty meals, alongside accommodating various dietary needs with options like halal meats, vegan, and gluten-free dishes, underscores its commitment to inclusivity and community​​​​​​.

Prego's menu is a hit list of Italian classics, from perfectly tender Calamari Fritti to the rich flavours of Linguine Marinara, alongside a celebrated array of pizzas honed to perfection over decades. Their commitment to quality ingredients and simple, yet profound flavours, where dishes like the Prego pie become a luxurious experience, reflects the essence of Italian cooking - uncluttered and full of flavour. The restaurant's enclosed courtyard offers an al fresco dining option, adding to the charm and ambiance that have secured Prego's status as a beloved local institution​​​​.

Their dedication extends beyond the menu, with Prego's team passionately sharing their love for food, wine, and people. The lively and welcoming atmosphere is complemented by efficient, personable service, making every dining experience memorable.

Prego is a testament to the timelessness of good Italian food and the power of a dining atmosphere that makes guests feel truly welcomed. It's a place where families, friends, and food lovers gather to share meals and moments, a tradition that Prego has proudly upheld in Auckland for over three decades​​​​​​.
