Cafe Prego Restaurant - Little Rock

Cafe Prego has a great staff, a casual atmosphere that will work for business lunches or romantic nights out and a simple menu. It's a great place for a quick Italian lunch in the Heights.

Cafe Prego is a in the Heights area and the atmosphere reflects the atmosphere of the neighborhood. It's not overstated and snooty and it's not a BBQ shack. It has it's own unique personality and character. The decor is interesting (movie posters and such) but not overpowering. The wait staff is polite but not overbearing. It's a nice, relaxing place to dine.

Let's talk about the food. You're not going to get a lot of different choices here. They only have 3 kinds of pasta and six sauces (often they have specials too) and about a dozen different other entrees. Even though the selection is slim, they pretty much have something for every taste and you know they've perfected every item on the menu.

Cafe Prego is reasonably priced. A full order of pasta is about $8. Eggplant parmesan (my personal fave) is around $10 and some of the more pricey meats (veal & salmon) run up to $15. Not bad considering the Olive Garden charges about the same and the food at Cafe Prego is actually worth it!

Prego is still one of the best "buys" in Little Rock. Solid staff, good food, decent wines, reasonable prices. You can go "up-market," but you won't find anywhere as consistent, steady, and enjoyable on a day-to-day basis.If possible, take the time to get acquainted with Jacqueline and her son Louis who run the place. Good people who care about your business.

It looked nice from the outside. It used to be our favorite place to get Creme Brulee.We have been by several times lately at dinner time, but it was closed. I am not sure it is even open anymore.
