MADE ME FEEL ILL!!! Not worth the money. £9 for a tiny portion of pre frozen calamari. The chicken salad was awful, brown lettuce topped with a revolting chemical tasting so-called "Caesar" dressing, which was obviously pre-made in a factory, slimy, no flavour and no doubt squirted out of a bottle. No parmesan in the salad, nothing. My main came before my starter had been cleared, and my fork was taken away with no replacement. Was seated next to a dirty table left uncleared for a long time. The restaurant wasn't even busy, only 3 or 4 other tables were occupied...I now know why! Didn't bother to complain as I guessed that any response would be lacklustre and end up annoying me further. Won't be returning. Extra note added: Have felt really sick for remainder of my evening, no doubt due to the disgusting gloopy dressing, luke warm chicken and limp brown salad...not impressed at all!!

We booked a 1 pm slot and just as well as the town and this place was crammed! Tried to order my usual NZ Sauvignon Blanc only to be told that they only do an Italian Sauvignon Blanc. What! The Italians are not known for SV. We ordered the Merlot which was very nice and served at spot on temperature. Had spaghetti with prawns and it was served hot on a nice warm plate. I think they overdid the chilli just a tad though. Partner had a very acceptable pizza. He had sticky toffee pud which was very good. I had the strawberry sundae which was fine but very scarce on the cream. Kings Lyn serve the best sundaes. Although the restaurant was full if you get organised your food and drink comes quickly. When you are shown to your table order your drinks straight away. When they bring the drinks give your food order. Worked a treat. No waiting. The team worked hard and everyone seemed to be enjoying the food as did we. I asked for a sample of the Italian SV and we both agreed that yes, the Italians cannot do SV. At £31 a bottle don’t waste your money ,it’s like nothing I have ever tasted before and nothing I ever want to try again. Can’t fault the staff here just bring back the NZ SV.

Food served Luke warm. Dangerous served fish and meat temperatures can lead to various ailments from bacteria caused serving food which has an ambient temperature. Starters and mains lacked seasoning and flavour. We left most of our main and feel sick. These are a national chain with clearly no quality control and the just don’t care what they dish up. Everything is just cheap. Staff were loverly. Last time for us.

The food was lovely and staff as well apart of manager. She was rude..I ask her a few times about 1 scoop of ice cream for my son dessert..I told her we are in rush(our parking time was almost run out),we had to wait 30 minutes for this. At the end she was lying that we waited 5 minutes..no apology and definitely not good attention to customers.

I had high hopes for a nice lunch when I saw Italian sausages with a lentil ragu. In my head I pictured fat juicy sausages sat on a bed of lentil ragu. Unfortunately my dream was dashed, I received three sausage’s in a bowl with a starter bowl of ragu, yes, a starter bowl a six year old could have eaten. The ragu was really nice but the sausages were so overcooked they were inedible and I sent them back. The next lot turned up which were equally as tough and inedible but this time the waiter said there wouldn’t be any charge for these which is great as I would not have paid £19.99 for something as bad as that. We’re talking about a sausage here, how can a “chef” not be able to cook a sausage? (Top tip - grill at medium heat and use a food thermometer until a temperature of 74c is reached, that way you will have an “edible sausage” ) … simple. I do wonder if Prezzo has become a Wetherspoons where the food is shipped in and microwaved to within a millimetre of its life or a meter over in this case. The other thing that concerned me was the communal chunk of parmesan that was on the bar in a plastic container. If you wanted parmesan it was a free for all for the staff to pick this cheesy hunk up and grind it over your dinner, no wrapper or anything, just the same hands that are touching everything else from money to cleaning tables, then every staff member is pawing over this poor hunk of cheese then back it goes over and over again. Needless to say i declined. Choose wisely is my advice and avoid the sausages. Have fun. I will say that the staff were nice though and all very polite On a positive

Had a few meals here now over the years and each time the decor has changed ever so slightly. It's probably the best it's ever looked currently and feels very modern. Staff were fantastic, though our last visit was extremely busy and they could have arguably done with one or two extra hands. Despite one too many tables to manage, our service was fantastic and very welcoming. Not easy to remain calm and attentive when you've got lots of orders to manage, so the waiters deserve a lot of credit here. Food has always been great here. Never had a problem. Would highly recommend a visit if you're in the area. It's a lovely place to enjoy a meal.

Ok it’s a Prezzo - hardly a Michelin-starred restaurant. But we found it to be a pleasant experience, with helpful servers who seemed to enjoy doing their job, a convivial atmosphere, and decent food. The only disappointment was the garlic bread, which was quite dry. Price-wise, we ended up with £90 for two, including a bottle of modest vino, a dessert, and a tip. Not exactly cheap, but not too bad these days.

I was really disappointed when after paying my delivery time changed from 45 mins to 90 mins!! Bit for a good meal I was willing to wait. However, when the stone cold cardboard pizza turned up I was so disappointed.. I paid extra for chicken on one of the pieces which was barely evident. Absolutely shocking. Prezzo used to be brilliant but we'd have been better off at the kebab shop and saved £30 too!! Shocking

I ordered 2 pizzas through Just Eat and was initially a bit disappointed when after paying the delivery time changed from 45 mins to 90 mins (1.5hrs) But I was happy to accept that for a good meal. However, when the pizzas arrived they were stone cold and like cardboard.. I also paid extra for chicken but it had barely a couple of pieces chucked on! This is totally unacceptable and really disappointing. I called the restaurant to see how they could rectify this and was left on hold for 15 mins..

Eating food in the kitchen but not coming to the table to check us. Had to go up to ask for dessert menu. 20 minutes later in a restaurant with only 2 other tables they were still laughing joking and drinking at the bar. Paid and left. Very unprofessional.

Haven’t been for a while, very different to what it used to be. Currently the staff don’t wear a prezzos uniform, just jeans, t-shirt and trainers! The food came out quickly but it’s not as I remember. I had the spaghetti bolognese which actually tasted very similar to what comes out of a Heinz can! The rest of our party were equally unexcited by their meals, including our children who were unimpressed with their hot cucumber and pepper veggie sticks that had been left under the heat lamp! A real shame.

Hadn’t been to Prezzo for a number of years ,wish we hadn’t bothered. Expensive bland food, chicken carbonara £19 two to three pieces of chicken no flavour to it dry , Tesco’s microwaveable carbonara had more flavour. Pesto dish with chicken was salty, inedible. Small portion of lasagne no side salad or anything to go with it. Then they slap 10% service charge on top. Did get money back on my meal , my daughter had her meal changed . Overpriced for what it is certainly will not be going back , far better restaurants around. Surprised they are still going to be honest.

Have visited Prezzo with my friend in a number of occasions as she has a discount card. We had booked a table and the restaurant was rather full when we arrived. We were greeted by staff but were kept waiting for over 5 minutes before we were shown to our table. We ordered our drinks and I ordered a ‘Porn Star Martini’ as my friend had another voucher for buy for cocktail get another one free. Ten minutes later we were told the hadn’t got any cocktail mix so I couldn’t have the cocktail I ordered. So I ordered a wine instead. That took another 10 minutes to arrive. We had our order taken after I advised Mackenzie our waiter that we were read to ordered our meals. When they arrived my friend’s chicken was undercooked. I called a female waitress over and spoke to her quietly and told her that the chicken was still raw in the middle. She took is away and offered my friend another meal. This was accepted by my friend. How ordered something else. However, we did. It appreciate the manager coming over to us afterwards with the chicken all shredded on the plate stating that it was cooked and that my friend would not get ill from what she had eaten. This was clearly a lie. The uncooked chicken had been removed and just the remaining chicken around the edges was shown in the plate and threaded into pieces and my friend stated that that wasn’t all the chicken from her meal. She did received another meal and we weren’t charged for her meal. Slow service, poor food and a rude manageress. The restaurant was clearly understaffed and the other two waiters/waitresses were working very hard. Prezzos sort your act out. You have good staff working there but need more if you are going to entertain large numbers.

We went for dinner last night arrived at 7. Recieved our starters at 8:15 and continued to be slow from there. Unfortunately a table of 16 arrived and somebody from the staff forgot to get a preorder for that table so everyone else had to wait whilst they dealt with them 2 tables behind us left without receiving their orders. No-one came back to check on us or see if we needed more drinks. The food was tasty, the staff were trying there best Unfortunately they just didn't have enough staff on. 3 1/2 hours for food is just unacceptable.

We came here as a group of nine, after many years of not going, but hoped it would be as good as we remembered. Sadly not. The food took over an hour to arrive and when it did, many of our dishes were luke warm and adult portions looked the same size as child portions. The taste was nothing special - I could have made better bolognese and carbonara sauce at home to be honest. So disappointing as this used to be one of our favourite restaurants many years ago.

Greeted when arrived and seated promptly. Waitresses were friendly and took food and drinks orders promptly. I ordered the Devonshire crab linguine (gluten free version with fusilli) and this was very disappointing. It was dry and bland and for £17.95 there were only a couple of flakes of crab in the whole dish which seemed a rip off. I ate a bit but then spoke to the manager to complain. He tried to explain away the lack of crab and blamed the gluten free pasta for it being bland! He did offer to take it off the bill but did not offer for me to order anything else. We were made to feel like we had to pay and leave so we promptly left (still hungry). Prezzo used to so lovely and welcoming but this was very disappointing and I won’t be going back anytime soon.

It’s difficult to comment on the food because we waited over ten minutes after being seated and no one even acknowledged us let alone asked if we would like a drink. We were one of only three tables seated in the entire restaurant so it is unclear why no one was able to serve us. We decided to leave and even as we got up to go no one bothered to approach us to ask why or to apologise for the poor service. On the plus side, it meant we went and had a nice meal somewhere else.

Just cheap offers with small tiny portions and cheap wine all probably made in a central production unit and transported here in a chill truck. Came here first years ago when it was great and before the menu changed to one which is now cheap stodgy food and not much of it. The staff are nice. I didn’t complain, what’s the point? Are they going to change the culture of the entire menu for me? Of course not. It’s now just a sad reflection of what it used to be. I don’t know but it’s probably just another chain Restaurant owned by private finance where those in charge are money grabbing accountants rather that professional restauranteurs

He apologised and took it away. A few minutes later returned with the same dish which had obviously been microwaved, food had no sauce and was dry. Very poor, I did complain and it was removed from the total bill but that’s not really the point. How about cooking fresh.

Summary: Dreadful poor food for a high price with exaggerated menu descriptions that don’t match what we were served. If you are looking for a good restaurant in Bury St Edmunds then visit one of the many others in the town. --- Date of visit: 31st December 2023. Evening meal with family. Having booked a table for my family and invited my elderly parents to join us we were looking forward to a nice meal out at Prezzo in Bury St Edmunds. However, the evening turned into an embarrassment due the woefully poor and expensive meal my father received, together with the substandard and again expensive meals that my wife chose for herself and my 3 year old daughter. Please see the images attached. Described as “generously filled with crab and lobster” the ‘Crab & Lobster Ravioli’, costing £17.95 arrived on a cold plate with just 12 pieces of ravioli on (meaning each ravioli piece cost £1.50) that were bordering on cold and had very little filling in. Surprised by how little was on his plate but not wanting to cause a fuss and potentially ruin the evening my father decided to tried some, but soon stop describing it as “disgusting” and “the worst ravioli meal he has ever had”. Upon trying some for ourselves, we too were surprised and disappointed with just how poor the ravioli was, being rubbery, cold with no detectable taste of any crab or lobster in. Disappointed we called the Manager over who apologised and removed the meal from the bill. However, my wife’s meal ‘Spaghetti with Devon Crab & Chilli’ again for £17.95 was not much better and certainly not worth the money we paid, but again not wanting to cause a fuss decided to leave it. Having visited several Prezzo restaurants many years ago in London I was looking forward to a meal out with my family, but if this is a representation of how Prezzo restaurants are today then they have gone noticeably downhill and are certainly not worth visiting.

No anchovies for my pizza. Yes, they are on the menu! No Tiramizu, suppose to be part of the Christmas deal. Not told until after we had been left to make our choice. NO COFFEE! the machine was broken, only told on ordering, no offer of an instant coffee. Ain't got none! The waitress was sweet and pleasant but desperately needed customer service training. The meal was very expensive , the food straight out of Icelands. This is not typical of other Prezzos we have been to, but spoilt our family reunion, and it will be a while before we return.

We booked a table for 2 on Sunday afternoon at 1pm . Nice little table was offered in the middle of the place so all was going well ....then it came to ordering!!! Our first 2 choices were unavailable, this being lasagne and spag bol .... we got a couple of drinks then perused the menu again. The waiter came back after a while to take our order and guess what ???? They didn't have that either... with that we said don't bother drank our drinks ( which the manageress kindly gave us ) and went to McDonald's. It's frustrating when these damn chain restaurants who were bleating during lock down about this and that can't organise a pxxs up in a brewery.

Visited for a family lunch before Christmas, honestly i don't think i would return nor who I was with. When arriving we were only given the standard menu even though they had a 2/3 course festive menu available ad also a bottomless brunch menu, both which we ad to ask for. There was minimal staff serving considering is was a Saturday lunch time in December so being served by one server was quite long winded and she could of been quite new as she had to go back to other staff behind bar and ask various questions we had asked. She only took half our drinks order before leaving the table. She was ok with our food order and to be fair we were quite indecisive and it did take a little while hence why we gave her a lovely tip ! The food itself was mixed reviews by our party of 7 The Goats cheese and Aubergine Bruschetta was too overloaded with cheese and underwhelmed with aubergine and honey drizzle. The mains was a consensus, everyone who had the chicken remarked how dry it was we even let the waitress know but there was no feedback from the kitchen, we had to ask for additional white wine sauce becasue it was so dry but by time it finally arrived most of us had tried best we could to get through the chicken meal before it went cold and what I will say when the sauce did arrive the wine content was still so strong the alcohol content of it had obviously not been cooked off. The desserts although nice were very measly in portion size and if i had brought this nt in the festive offer I would of expected a bigger portion. Overall a little let down by the lunch but catching up with family was lovely and the waitress did a marvelous job.

Highly recommended for big groups! We booked a large group event with 30 people plus another 10! The staff were absolutely perfect from the start, helping us preorder, catering personally for a member of the party with allergies, helping us make the bill as easy as possible. Every course came out with the names on the list so people knew what food they'd ordered, the staff were smiley and helpful the whole evening :) Couldn't ask for more.

We had a large group of 30 + 10 on another table and the team were epic! I can't praise them enough how well they dealt with everything and kept smiling all night. So impressed. We'll be booking Christmas next year too!! Xxx

Food was good quality, staff are friendly and helpful, prices are a little expensive. Not many at my time of eating so atmosphere was a little subdued.

It is really sad to have to write this review, Prezzo BSE was one of my go to restaurants for an evening meal, but since Kevin sadly died a few years back the restaurant has declined rapidly. It was often almost impossible to book a table if you left it too late, at 8.30pm there were under ten tables occupied, which was significantly different from the other restaurants we passed on the way there. My friend ended up with her FOURTH choice, so basically having something that she did not really want, which was surprising as the restaurant was virtually empty. When the two meals arrived I was actually shocked with the quality and presentation of the food. I immediately asked to see the manager. A young girl duly arrived at our table to whom I expressed my displeasure at the apparent lack of choice and the quality and presentation of the food. To be fair, she did accept my criticism and we were offered a free drink. We also passed comment on the empty tables still laden with empty glasses and plates of uneaten food, despite the fact that there were plenty of staff with obviously very little to do. So all in all a very poor experience and I do not see us going back there in the foreseeable future.

We went for my daughters birthday with the family. They had been told when we booked the table, but they seemed understaffed, and they just didn't do anything to make us feel special. I'm glad we used the taste card to get a discount as the price without it was far too high.

My only criticism was the temperature of my meal. It had cooled, I think, as it stood on the serving hatchback awaiting the completion of my wife's meal, otherwise all was very enjoyable.

Service was quick and clean place. Flat bread with starter was burnt, did mention it to the Waitresses but they just said chef needs to do better but did say sorry. Apart from that a lovely place to dine.

Bury isn't spoiled for good places to eat out, Prezzos is not bad. We had a very nice ravioli and ragu. Both tasty and served pretty quickly. Value isn't great, and I wouldn't buy too many pints there! Although it's a decent place to eat, it doesn't have much atmosphere but I'd be happy to go back.

I had a caesar salad with chicken. The chicken was fine an enough of it, however, there were no croutons or bacon buts, there was quite a bit if cucumber and not a lot if lettuce, didn't really notice any parmesan and there was barely any sauce. Not the best caesar salad by any means, but it was a salad!!! Staff were great and very patient and attentive

Saw that Bills was closing, which is a terrible shame as a favourite brunch spot of mine and my partners for the great gluten free options, so on Saturday 29th July we popped in for brunch. In the past we would always be warmly welcomed at the front. On this occasion we waited at the front for a few minuets with no sign of any staff. A few minutes later a young waitress walks down the steps, looks at us and then starts clearing a table, but putting items on a tray. She then looks at us again, then walks over to another table to ask how their food is, then returns to clearing the table. She looks at us again and finally decides to walk over after ignoring us for close to 5 minuets, it’s now been nearly ten minuets since we walked in! She walks over “table for two?” - I reply “Yes please” and I continue to say “one gluten allergy” but she interrupted me and said “just a second” before picking up two menus and walking off without us. My partner and I looked at each other and both said “nope” and we walked out. Service at Bills in the past was always superb. Always asked for allergies at the door and seated quickly. Which given service charge is included you’d expect. On this occasion is was severely lacking, I assume in part due to staff being aware the store is closing and there no longer being a reason to care about standards. We walked to Edmundos instead, we were greeted within seconds of walking in and as soon as we said a table for two the following question was “any allergies?” For me as someone with Coeliac this immediately settles me. The food was also great. Shame to lose bills, but thankfully Edmundos is there and doing a great job.

I recently visited Rustico’s with my fiancé for what was meant to be a lovely final meal before heading home, but unfortunately, it was far from that. The customer service was virtually non-existent. We felt like we were an inconvenience rather than valued guests. The food was equally disappointing. We was told that there was no pizza available so I ordered pasta, and it was overly cheesy to the point of being inedible. Beyond that, the flavor was bland and uninspired—definitely not what you’d expect from an Italian restaurant. It was a frustrating way to end our trip, but at least one silver lining is that we won’t be returning to Rustico’s. I cannot recommend this place to anyone looking for quality food or service.

If you want warm white wine and lots on the menu that’s unavailable, then this is the place for you. We arrived at 6pm and the restaurant was empty but the girl pointed at a table we could have, when we could have sat anywhere! We were served white wine un-chilled / limited menu/ no chilli oil/ had to ask for cutlery and pepper, and this looked to be a hassle. The girl behind the bar seemed fed up and I asked for chilli oil 3 times and eventually she said they did not have any without telling me this. Felt bad for the boy waiter as he was apologising for all the failures that had occurred. We were also told the restaurant was busy dealing with the tables outside (there were only two covers). Can’t believe the pizzeria doesn't open until 5pm and they don’t have basic ingredients to fill the menu and the wine is not chilled. Call me old fashioned, but the customer is the customer and we are all paying a bill at the end of the night and expect good service and a smile. Food was actually nice but not an enjoyable experience. Lucy did not make us feel welcome. :-(
