About the Business

Located in the small, bustling area of Houston known as Rice Village, Prego is much like the popular neighborhood trattorias of Italy.

Together with partner Tracy Vaught, executive chef John Watt has fine-tuned the casual, Italian-style trattoria into a sharply focused restaurant in contention for the city's top culinary honors.

Prego's menu is full of complex and rich flavors that utilize the indigenous ingredients of Italy. Red ripe tomatoes, fresh herbs, exotic mushrooms and polenta, the Italian staple grain, are found in abundance on the bill of fare, which changes seasonally. The menu runs the gamut from classic dishes with a modern twist to contemporary Italian dishes created by Chef Watt. The proof of any Italian restaurant is in the pasta and, at Prego, the pastas and their fillings/toppings are custom made to Watt's specifications.
