Prezzo Italian Restaurant Bournemouth West Central

Prezzo offers a modern and stylish setting, with a neutral palette of greys and earthy tones creating a calm and contemporary atmosphere. It’s an inviting space, but when it comes to the food, I expected a bit more. We ordered a gluten-free pasta and a Margherita pizza, both of which were decent but unremarkable—the kind of dishes you could find just about anywhere. For a brand like Prezzo, I anticipated a higher level of quality and flavour, but the execution felt standard rather than special. That said, the service was excellent. The staff were attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring a smooth and pleasant dining experience. While the food didn’t impress, the service certainly did.

The starter was good apart from the gluten free "bread" which was horrible. It looked more like a flat pancake or a very thin slice from a tree trunk. While lots of nice garlicky flavours had been added it certainly didn't comply with the description "bread". The texture was granular and soapy at the same time. Unfortunately I chose pizza 🍕...again same thin slice of wood instead of a pizza dough. Toppings and flavours amazing...please find a better recipe for gluten free. I would choose pasta next time
