   I write this review with mixed emotions. My wife and I had a reservation and were placed in a high top. My wife was experiencing discomfort due to her recent knee replacement. I asked the hostess to seat us at a regular table. After a wait she offered to seat us at a table by the curb. Really? We declined and toughed it out. I asked about one of the two empty booths and was told they were not available. I understand why they were saving the booths for a larger party. Except there was one couple in a booth and there was at least one booth available the whole time we ate. We brought this to the attention of the manager. He apologized, said he would make note of it the next time we came in, but did nothing to reseat us. In the big scheme of things it is minor it but did mar a nice dinner. As for the dinner it was great. We ordered the meatballs as an appetizer. They tasted great and the serving size was not too much for two people. We shared three half size pasta dishes that were awesome. The Gnocchi was best but the other two were very good too. My wife had a glass of Pinot Grigio and I had two glasses of Barolo. Both wines were good. I especially enjoyed the Barolo. Our server was great. He suggested the pasta dishes which were spot on. The food and service was very good and it was better when I looked at our check. I would rate our experience as five stars but the seating really made a great experience a good experience. Management could learn that goodwill, hospitality and common sense is more profitable than an empty four top. Go and enjoy, be very specific in your reservation if you have a special seating requirement.

   Service and atmosphere were great but the food was surprisingly lackluster. We always have a great meal but that night wasn’t our night. Everyone has a bad night. Hopefully it was the exception and not a sign of things to come.

   I have been coming to Prato for a few years now. I currently live in South Florida now, but make it a point to go to Prato when I get the opportunity. I do have to say the past 3 times I have been the food has been incredibly salty. This past time we had to send back the calamari because it was fishy and too salty. It was removed from the bill. The caesar salad was way to lemony and again salty. The mustard spaghetti, which is my favorite was well done this time, but the past 2 times I have been was almost to salty to eat. The drinks and ambience as well as service is always fantastic. Although I have been disappointed the past 3 time of coming there are still the drinks and great service that keeps on wanting me to give it another try.

   The four of us all ate something different and we loved what we had. Busy place which means good food and good service.

   We had a great time at Prato. My friend from Houston came in to visit so we checked out the wine bar in Winter Park and then ended up at Prato's for dinner. It was delicious. They always have such a unique menu of pasta dishes i've never heard of but am willing to try. We definitely plan on coming back for the food!

    We had a reservation for 9:00pm and arrived early, hostess told us our table is being cleaned off and we will be seated shortly, 9:10pm I had to go back up to the hostess and tell her our reservation was at 9 and then she finally seated us. While checking in, a server came up to the front and started complaining about it being “ too busy” and she’s “too tired” to serve and saying “why are there so many reservations” in a whining voice. Like seriously, it’s a Friday night, if you don’t want to work in a restaurant and be a server you should not be there. It’s a shame because I’m sure I wasn’t the only one that heard her. At least the food was great.
