Back in Newport, a multiculteral city I am falling in love with. How would I describe Prezzo Newport in Newport City. Simple. Think of an oyster covered in scale,barnicles and salty sea waste. Scrub it off, Open it up and you reveal a succulent mussel sat on a mother of pearl shell-bed and if your lucky, a pearl! "Prezzo Newport"!
My host/waitress Sophie was helpfull,interactive and attentitive. She made me feel welcome unrushed and at home.
Front of house allowed the restauraunt to flow and run itself and more importantly let the staff do their thing and was confident in her staff and abuility. "Very confident and very compitent".
I always like to speak and thank the chef's, "its the reason its an open Kitchen" I am a foodie and love cooks and chef's. Thank you.
One picture/phote and my reason for Visiting Newport and Prezzo restauraunt "Lemon Meringue pie". I love Lemons!!
"Oh yes" The "mint" on the plate was slightly crushed/bruised allowing the aroma, the essence of the mint to rise up off the plate exciting the Pallet before you actually taste. Very classy and very skillfully executed. Thank you!!!! I will be...
Read moreI dined in with my friend and we had an awful experience. First thing is that the waiter we had was very rude when i asked her questions about what some things meant, i’m not originally from the UK so i am not expected to know everything. Second our food took so long to arrive,and there was barely anybody there. Third, once our food arrived it was awful. I ordered the carbonara and i asked for it to not have chicken but they added loads of it, way too much parmesan. tastes like a mouthful of strong cheese rather than a creamy carbonara. burger arrived sweaty/soggy and the ketchup was spicy and horrid. the burger buns were wet with grease also, fourth the prices are ridiculous. i understand £15 for some pasta but 7.00 for a tiny slice of cake is absurd. and i mean TINY. 4.50 for a bottle of pepsi max also, can get this in shops for 1.25. They also charge £20 for a salad which i think is ridiculous. Although this review sounds very over dramatic it’s the truth and i wouldn’t come here again. Me and my friend even joke about warning people before...
Read morePopped in here today around 1:30 for a light lunch....tucked away on Friars Walk, inside it's certainly a fine looking restaurant and bar....an understated contemporary feel maybe....a little minimalist.... perhaps with a hint of creamy art deco(!)....I ordered the chicken pizza followed by the chocolate gelato....both were very good....I washed them down with a couple of continental lager beers and a glass of trebbiano....the pizza was certainly a man sized portion....it was a fine lunch....however it was the service that really stood out for me....the two young ladies serving and doubling as maitre d were excellent.... professional courteous friendly and helpful....it certainly seems to come as a surprise sometimes when one comes across good service in the UK.... particularly outside of the capital perhaps imao....they really looked and acted the part!....Sofiia especially was delightful!....anyways....from this experience I certainly intend to return and would unreservedly...
