"I really want to be as attentive and thorough with this review as possible. We've been looking forward to trying Prezzo for some time. We admired this plaza on many weekends that the Spanish guitarist plays outside. We hired a babysitter and made it a point to come specifically to dine in Prezzo. On arrival at the time for our reservation 7:15 a.m. to 11/26 (Saturday) we went to a very loud and indeed quite terrible (high school) sounding band playing very loud and out of tune music outside. The Spanish guitarist must have been free for the weekend. Apparently during the night the guests asked the band to turn the music.. I knew that because the band always said. Sorry guys we play as low as we can go?. the drummer was pouncing on drums. not the best choice at dinner. My wife and I have made the wise choice to feed inside. What we didn't hope, but we were there.. We actually noticed many empty tables outside.. We sat in a very unromantic table right behind the Hostess stand that stood against the server cleaning station where they held table bags, spray etc. David P. Who was our server was friendly, took our drink order, I ordered a diet coke, everything I drink... He quickly brought the drink. I took a sip. When David came back, I said I had to give this drink back because I ordered a diet coke and you gave me Pepsi. His answer was ?oh I can usually get away from it?. Why draw this with the customer? Be ahead, communicate that you serve Pepsi products. Don?t play a game and disregard the customer order. so after I sent it back, I ordered a ginger-ale, the mostly glittering water with little to no syrup, but I was beyond the care of the drink at this place. On the back of my head I felt that David might have messed with me at this point. We ordered a few bites for the table. Caprese Stack my wife enjoyed. The pear and Nuss Nuss Pasta app was drown in the sauce and maybe 1.5 slices of pear in it. We don't care. My strawberry salad would have been better if they wouldn't drown the salad in so much dressing. It was hard to eat. We ordered a Margarita pizza for 18 dollars and I must say that this was undoubtedly one of the worst and most dry pizzas I had in a long time. I have to say that I almost felt torn off. David fired the food immediately and I did not kidnap you, within 7 minutes of the order, everything was at our table. Almost felt like the whole food came so fast. We were from the restaurant in 25 minutes. It wasn't a night out. You literally robbed me a romantic night I rarely get with my wife. I feel so light with our experience. I didn't expect that. Very disappointed. I didn't want to send anything back because I didn't want to ruin a night. I just wanted to finish in peace and out. We came home within 45 minutes"

"Bravo is a dependable choice for great Italian food. We've been coming here for decades, and have preferred many of the dishes to those we have had in Italy. One major winner is the LASAGNA, which, if you can get over the basicness of ordering lasagna in an Italian restaurant is amazing. You can easily split it or bring some home to eat later, although I have been known to down the whole thing in one sitting. Another must try is the PASTA FRA DIAVOLO, which consists of delicious fresh shrimp in a lightly spicy tomato cream sauce. New on their menu is SPAGHETTI CON CACIO E PEPE, which unfortunately doesn't measure up to the deceptively simple but delicious Italian pasta that is its namesake. It SHOULD have a creamy sauce made from pasta water and finely grated pecorino cheese, but instead it is just sitting in olive oil with somehow barely any pepper or cheese. The name of this dish literally means spaghetti with pepper and cheese, but it was woefully lacking in both. Fortunately, they come around with finely grated Parmigiano and pepper, so if you order this just have them add lots of both to take this dish where it needs to go. I like a mild, peppery pasta, so i enjoyed it and would order it again as long as I can doctor it up. Most people, however, will probably feel ripped off. The INSALATA DELLA CASA side salad is great and refreshing, if you want to add it to your meal. One thing you won't be sorry you ordered is the excellent TIRAMISU, which is the best I've had anywhere, and ranks right at the top of our favorite desserts of all time. It's the coffee sauce they drench it in that takes it to the next level. You'll lick the plate happily. One of our top spots to eat,because we always are happy with the quality of the food and excellent service."

"Where do I begin? I'm married to a Sicilian chef, who was born and raised in Sicily. He owned a pizzeria and later an Italian restaurant, so he knows his food! No one makes better Italian food than my husband except my deceased mother-in-law. God rest her soul.How did this place get a 4 star rating? HOW?If you don't know what good food is, then I can understand the high ratings.The bruschetta tasted like hot, chunky salsa on top of garlic bread. Not even close to what bruschetta is or should be!The calamari is frozen. It lacked any flavor! Waste of money. Get in some fresh calamari, bread it with a mixture of Panko, Romano cheese and a bit of salt, then deep fry till golden. It's just that simple!What did you do to that poor eggplant parmesan? Does that soggy mess come in frozen from the food purveyor? I've never witnessed an eggplant destroyed to the point of a wet, wimpy, tasteless pile of mush. No wonder eggplant has such a bad rap in America. Take it off your menu or learn how to peel, slice, flour, egg bath, bread and saute one of nature's most delicious vegetables!Now to the chicken alfredo. Alfredo sauce is simple. Heavy cream, parmesan cheese, a bit of fresh chopped garlic and a touch of flour to thicken. Again, it is that simple.Your sauce was thin and tasteless.The chicken was a pre-cooked, frozen chicken breast that you mercilessly drown in that white, watery sauce! My son ate one bite and was done.Now, the pasta reviews. Don't keep pasta in water before serving. Cook it to a true aldente, rinse under cold water and keep refrigerated. Once you have an order, grab your serving size, stick it in a strainer, submerge in boiling water to bring it up to temp and then plate it. Nobody likes bloated pasta. Yours was as bloated as a body under water for three days. As for your red sauce ..just use a number 10 can. You'll be better off. Any true Italian knows oregano doesn't belong in a red sauce. It's too bitter. It is for pizza sauce.The pizza was so oily. Cheap cheese does that!I should have listened to my husband when he asked, Why are there only 3 cars in the parking lot on a Sunday at 5:30 Listen to your instincts folks."
