Took a group of friends while in Arlington to lunch and this great Italian has vegetarian items. Robbie was our server and kept our glasses full. The food was delicious. Yeast rolls came to the table after sitting. Large salads, non acidic red sauce. I had the eggplant parmigiana sooo good. Everyone's food look good and all plates cleaned. read more

I think they are consistently one of the best go to or take out Italian restaurants in our area. Great pasta, great pizza , great entree choices and pricing I go back again and again!! read more

Went here today for lunch. Got angel hair spaghetti. The sauce was very very bland. The bread was hot/fresh and the pasta was cooked well, but the sauce ruined it. I picked this up to go and the young girl manning the front was getting help from the cook with cutting tomatoes. Once he showed her, they both looked up and saw me, but she went back to cutting the tomatoes-- no acknowledgement of me standing there. She only stopped because the phone rang. She answered the phone and still did not acknowledge me. She put the person on hold then asked my name. Beyond the fact that I wasn't greeted, she did not have gloves--so she went from cutting tomatoes, answered the phone, scratch her head several times while on the phone, touched all of the surfaces--all gloveless. As I was leaving she turned to go back to cutting tomatoes and I can only assume she did not wash her hands before continuing. Due to these issues, I will not be returning. I really don't care about not being greeted; it's the taste of the food and the unsanitary actions that did it for me! read more

Food is wonderful, however service is too busy to be good. I feel bad for the staff, one which looked like she was about to cry. After waiting in line for 10 minutes, I ended up paying for 2 cannolis and only received one with my takeout order. Double check your take out orders. read more

Prespa's Italian Restaurant - Cannoli - Italian Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I've been to this Italian restaurant three times in three months! It is located off of West Sublett, and on the east side of Hwy 287 in South Arlington. The cooks are great, and make so many delicious Italian meals, with hot bread and garlic or plain butter! Drinks you purchase are sodas and iced tea. Water is free. Customers can bring their own bottle(s) of wine, and your food is served by cute and attentive waitresses! What else could you want? read more

Prespa's Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Prespa's is a family favorite. My parents stumbled upon it a few years ago and it's not our go to family celebration spot. The stuffed mushrooms and Jerusalem Chicken are my favorite, but we have tried everything from pizza and stomboli to lasagna. Everything we try is good. The bread is always soft and warm. Staff is friendly and accommodating which is nice. The restaurant is small but cozy. Feels like a hole in the wall place and it's definitely a "local" spot. read more

Prespa's Italian Restaurant - After we ate - Italian Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Very good, family run business that has been operating for some twenty years. Fast and friendly I highly recommend ,

Absolutely incredible dinner! Came here with my family and everything we ordered was so full of flavor. Plenty of seating as well and service is spectacular. The restaurant has a family feel for sure which is something I really love about a space. Spaghetti with meatballs, chicken alfredo, and chicken marsala were all excellent choices. Our meal was served with fresh bread and butter/olive oil followed by an absolutely flavorful side salad. Highly recommend the house vinaigrette for your side salad. Limoncello was the dessert offered tonight and I obviously had to get a slice for home. Very, very good! We will definitely be back soon. read more

This is our goto place for great Italian food. We have been going there every Saturday for more years then I can remember. Great menu, but my favorite dish is the Linguini in white clam sauce best I ever had. Service is awesome, You will have bread on the table 1 minute after you sit down. Entire staff is very friendly. The inside is nicely decorated. read more

Best pizza around. Great customer service! Can take your own drinks. Alcoholic. Great take out also. read more

I'd recommend this place for the pizza. Always good. Pasta was always hit or miss. Quick service. Good for takeout.

Great lasagna and great service and the people were friendly, clean restaurant & restrooms.

Their web site was easy to order our food and it was all ready when we picked it up. Delicious food.

Got takeout from here and It was delicious. The linguine with clams was perfect and we got the Margherita pizza too which was great. Would absolutely recommend! read more

This place was a small Italian shop and the food was okay. Feels like it lacked seasoning. I tried a new dish (not sure of what it's called) bc their chicken parm was with grilled chicken instead of fried. read more

Has dinner here the other night! We enjoyed our meal of Chicken Parmesan and pasta sampler. We also shared a piece of limoncello cake. We like our sauce on the sweeter side and this fit the bill! Was also very reasonably priced! We will be going back. Our server was very nice and attentive also! Win win! read more

Had the Valentine's Day Special- Lobster Ravioli & it was good. Very filling- at first I thought it wasn't a lot of food but it was plenty and well priced. The spaghetti was delicious as well. Server was nice as well. Great dine in experience. read more

We haven't dined in. We always order to go, and everything's been great. Love that it's local, always get the stuffed mushrooms, lasagna, and other pastas we've had have been wonderful. We ordered pizza recently for a family dinner and was not only delicious, but everyone agreed perfectly cripsy yet soft crust. I can't wait to dine in sometime! read more

Haven't been back since we all got sick from eating chicken fettuccine Alfredo. The Alfredo sauce was too sour. Don't mean to be a Karen but I think you understand if it happened to you. read more

Basically, if you're looking for a no thrills no thrills type of restaurant for Italian food, this is a great place to be, the team. There was very responsive and took care of our needs. As for the food, the food was really decent. I enjoyed my meal and if you asked me the question would I go back? I certainly would read more

Nice little hole in the wall Italian restaurant. Nice dinner crowd. Not over crowded for a midday girls lunch as they didn't rush us out. Good food and good service. read more

I like Prespa's the food is good so is the service. When I was there on Saturday July 6th one of the waitresses made a statement "I done want to wait on anymore old people." it was rude and said loud enough for this old person to hear. read more

I always order the chicken lasagna lunch special which continues to taste good but the salad just doesn't seem to improve at all. I stopped ordering the salad for quite a while and decided to try again today. As you can see, the majority of it is wilted. They need to use fresher lettuce. It ruined my appetite. read more

Prespa's is consistent with the quality of their food, their customer service, and the experience is a positive one. Highly recommend their delicious Italian fare! read more

2nd time my sister and I have been there (both times for my birthday). Place is next to a barber shop in a strip mall. Good parking and wait staff (all teen high school girls) are very knowledgeable and attentive towards the patrons. Now about the food - GREAT and very affordable on ur wallet. Yes I recommend and be advised it's BYOB - they supply openers & glasses. read more

This is a nice little Italian joint, locals in the area eat there a lot... And it's next to my school that I teach at. I will frequently run over for lunch, their pizza is delicious read more

Had the shrimp scampi and did not like the taste compared to other restaurants. Noticed restaurant employees serving regulars prior to serving new customers which could be a good thing if you are a regular customer. read more

Not a bad meal to be had! Their pizza is the best, and the meatballs are like my grandmother (an Italian immigrant) used to make: big, meaty, and moist! Their pasta is fabulous! Not to be forgotten the customer service is outstanding. Everyone from the person on the phone taking our order to the man at the pick up counter were VERY courteous! read more

Delightful little strip-mall type of restaurant, Prespa's is a great example of not judging a book by it's cover. Tonight was our first visit. We were greeted promptly & allowed to seat ourselves. They offer a selection of booths and tables, and they have a decent amount of seating. The decor is adequate for an Italian restaurant - they are not over-doing it. The restaurant is BYOB. I did not notice a corkage fee on the menu. They do provide bottle opener & glasses. The garlic rolls were fresh, warm, and garlicky (that IS a plus). A salad was $1.00 extra with my entree but not my companion's...as it appears is the case with the baked pasta dishes. The Pasta Trio ($7.95) came with Lasagna, Cannelloni, & Manicotti. It was hard to distinguish where the latter two began & ended, however, the sauce was extremely fresh and tangy, and the cheese was plentiful. The entree was served piping hot as well. The Chicken Parm dinner ($10.95) came with a substantial potion of spaghetti & red gravy. It was well-seasoned, but the chicken was the slightest bit over-cooked. Still, for $10.95, it's better than anything at that certain chain "Italian" joint...mainly because the sauce is so robust. The servers could easily be dressed in white dress shirts and black ties. They are not. Instead, they are dressed casually (t-shirts, shorts, etc). Service was prompt, not spectacular. Locally-owned restaurants are just too hard to find in this area, especially those who get it. If they could improve anything, a better selection of appetizers would be nice. Having said that, I would hate for them to over-complicate things. I am looking forward to ordering a lunch time pizza for pick up. They had a lot of to go business, even at dinner, and they advertise $5.95 lunch specials...so this gal is definitely going back for more. read more

Delicious Italian food. It is my favorite. They make it fresh and a local owned business.

Love this locally owned business! Love all their lunch specials, still a great deal! Strongly recommend this place!

Have only ordered pickup/delivery, but it hits the spot. Pizza is better than the entrees, which could benefit from more seasoning. Casual neighborhood restaurant that offers friendly service, BYOB for dine-in guests, and a large menu of Italian-American favorites. read more
