Prego's Restaurant

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pregos at Beach Rotana, and it was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish. The chef personally came to our table, which added a very special and personal touch to the evening. He was extremely kind and attentive, taking the time to recommend several dishes, all of which exceeded our expectations. The food was absolutely delicious—authentic Italian cuisine, rich in flavor and beautifully prepared. Every dish reflected a genuine commitment to quality and tradition. In addition to the excellent food and service, the restaurant offers a beautiful view, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that enhances the overall dining experience. I would highly recommend Pregos to anyone looking for a true taste of Italy in Abu Dhabi. I will definitely be coming back!

A fantastic choice for family dinners or casual gatherings with friends! The lively ambience and welcoming staff make every visit special. The outdoor terrace with views of the beach and gardens adds a beautiful touch to the dining experience. Service is attentive and friendly, and the menu offers something for everyone — from flavorful pastas and pizzas to fresh salads and seafood. A must-visit for true Italian food lovers

We went to Pregos Italian again last night for my birthday 🎂 was absolutely stunning sitting outside on their terrace overlooking the small lake around the restaurant-(full of fish and ducks) - service was excellent by our usual waiter from Nepal (Shanam or similar name sorry I didn’t remember it well enough) Pizza was great but the highlight is always the crunchy loaf of bread they bring - it’s 🤩 They arranged a small birthday chocolate mousse cake as a surprise We love all of the restaurants at Beach Rotana, but Pregos is a leading favorite for easy dinner and very chill atmosphere.

Prego’s at Beach Rotana is a true slice of Italy in the heart of Abu Dhabi. From the moment you step in, the warm ambiance sets the perfect tone for a relaxed meal. The pastas are rich, creamy and aromatic while the wood-fired pizzas are crisp and flavorful. Cooked perfectly al dente, they were among the most delicious pastas I’ve tried. The starters and salads are comforting and fresh, while desserts like the tiramisu are a perfect mix of sweetness and creaminess. Service is attentive and genuinely welcoming, which can make both your casual dinners or special occasions feel effortless.

Prego at Beach Rotana Abu Dhabi is always one of my favorite places. The ambience is lovely and creates a great dining experience. The food tastes authentically Italian and is consistently delicious. The service is excellent, especially from Geeta, who was attentive and welcoming throughout our visit. Chef Yash also suggested some great dishes, and his recommendations were spot on. Overall, a wonderful experience, and I look forward to visiting again. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Migliore Ristorante Italiano a Abu Dhabi Antonino lo Chef una persona bravissima e molto gentile mangiare sensationale e Paulo e una persona bravissima e dolccisima si puo parlare e scerzare con loro lo staffa e adorabille cosa dire tutto 1000% il TOP

We celebrated International Women’s Day at Prego’s, and everything was fantastic! The food was delicious, the service from Kyaw was superb, and the staff was incredibly friendly. The atmosphere made for an enjoyable experience, and we truly had a great time together. Loved it—highly recommended! 😋😋😋

I’d recommend visiting this place if you’re looking to enjoy a warm, cozy ambiance. However, I do have several comments about the food itself. It’s quite expensive and, in my opinion, not worth the price. I ordered the beef fillet, and the quality of the meat was fairly average. The cannoli for dessert was overly sweet and a bit tough. The appetizers were good, but overall, I believe you can find better-quality food at a much more reasonable price elsewhere.

Our experience was so nice - the food and the service are the top quality, thank you very much! Everyone was so caring, appreciate this so much! Highly recommend the special dishes from the Chef - worths it.

Delicious food, but the service needs improvement, we received our order but some items were missed, so we had to wait again. In general we had great time but they should work hard on their service!

The food was delicious and full of authentic Italian flavor! We especially enjoyed the bread and the tiramisu . The service was excellent, friendly, attentive, and professional. A big thanks for Mark! this is a nice spot for a relaxed yet refined dining experience at Rotana Beach Hotel.

I recently had dinner at Prego’s, the Italian restaurant located at Beach Rotana Abu Dhabi, and it turned out to be a genuinely enjoyable experience. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with both indoor and outdoor seating that gives you the option of a cozy meal or dining with a view. It has a classic, relaxed vibe that makes it ideal for anything from a casual meal to a more special evening out. I ordered both pizza and pasta, and both dishes were excellent. The pizza had a perfectly thin, crisp crust with just the right amount of chew — baked in a proper oven and topped with fresh ingredients. The flavors were balanced and authentic, reminding me of traditional Italian-style pizza. The pasta was also a highlight: freshly made, cooked al dente, and coated in a rich, flavorful sauce. Whether you’re into creamy sauces or tomato-based ones, the pasta dishes here really deliver in terms of both portion and taste. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, and the food arrived in good time. If you’re looking for quality Italian food in Abu Dhabi, Prego’s at Beach Rotana is definitely worth a visit — especially for pizza and pasta lovers.

You can choose between an indoor and outdoor environment for the table, and the Smoke Aria part is separate, which is excellent. The staff were friendly and were extremely helpful in making our decision. The homemade spinach pasta was amazing, and the other main courses were good too, but the drinks were very sweet, and they had plenty of syrup.

Amazing atmosphere and experience, Food was authentic Italian and the service was perfect. I was there with friends and we had the Pleasure to meet the Restaurant’s manager, Mr. Paolo, who is absolutely professional and very easy-going with proper composure on his side. Overall, I would give 10 out of 10 on everything. It is worth a visit for lunch or dinner at least once a week.

Endroit sympathique, belle terrasse, qualité du repas très bonne sauf les bruschettas qui pourraient être meilleures et un plus plus grosses. Le vin est cher comme partout aux UAE. Le personnel est gentil. Le point négatif c’est que les deux personnes assises derrière nous fumaient le cigare pendant longtemps et toute la fumée venait à notre table et cette odeur qui est déjà d’habitude très désagréable l’est encore plus quand on mange surtout que ma fille de sept ans était derrière ces deux monsieurs.

Special thanks to rebecca the manager, great service, and thanks to her team, food amazing especially the bucatini with anchovies! Sure come back

I had an amazing experience yesterday at Prego's in Beach Rotana. The atmosphere was beautiful and welcoming, and the food was absolutely delicious. It was my girlfriend’s birthday, and the team surprised her with a lovely birthday setup, which made our evening extra special and unforgettable. A big thank you to all the staff, especially the gentleman who organized the surprise (sorry I couldn’t remember your name). Truly outstanding service — highly recommended! 🌟

Food taste is great! Authentic Italian flavors fresh ingredients and generous servings! Burrata raviolli highly revommended. Thank you Shankar for your excellent service and attention to ensure a very pleasant dining experience .
