I would rave about Presto when it first opened but the past two times I’ve ordered from here the portions are extremely disappointing that I can’t see myself spending the money here again or ever recommend it to a friend (and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t eat a whole lot to begin with). Spent $70+ for my family and every one of us was still hungry when we finished eating. Both adult sizes were barely bigger than my daughter’s buttered noodles - in fact, hers had more chunks of chicken than my partners adult size. I always get 3 veggies and bolognese sauce and there was barely any sauce…barely any veggies and even the veggies that were in there were slivers and nothing like the nice chunks of veggie you used to get. Half my partners salad was brown and not edible. We also ordered two “giant” garlic breads and I was shocked at what we received. Two kids each got a sliver and my partner was left with what looked like two little corner pieces. The takeout containers used to be PACKED full, now they’re barely half full for an adult size. Extremely disappointing to say the least and only wish I had taken photos to further prove my point.

Food was not good at all. Pasta was undercooked and dry. Barely any sauce at all which makes it even more dry than it already is. Very very disappointed I don’t think I’ll spend money here again.

Food was OK taste wise. Portion size was awfully small cost for noodles, some veggies and sauce(no meat, bread or salad) was $10. Way overpriced. Not going back. You can do much better at Olive Garden!

The girl who took our order did a very good job of giving us all the options this place has as we have never been here before. The pasta was al dente and the vegetables tasted fresh, Parmesan cheese on top of the Alfredo sauce and some crushed red pepper was really good. Just over thirty bucks because of the shrimp.

If it were possible to give a less than zero stars rating, I would.Presto on Carlisle Rd is ALWAYS out of food of one kind or another.I mean. ..DAMN.... FOOD is your business. Half the time they're closed. I'm guessing that they are currently closed for good since the power is turned off (most likely for non payment) and the dumpster(s) were removed by Waste Management (there's only 1 reason for that...non payment)Someone REALLY needs to grow up and take running a business seriously.I wonder if corporate knows yet?

Over priced and skimpy on the veggies. One add on is included but if you want more than one the price skyrockets. Not worth the price for what you get.

I don't know what happened today. Over all bad experience and now I have to clean my car seat due to leakage of the sauce.

The foods good but it's very little for the price. Well period it's just very little! Like a small box of white rice from a Chinese restaurant! No other size.Then there's the service. It seems more that they only hire YOUNG adults which is fine! It's just as if someone made them work there. I know everyone isn't happy go lucky like "OOOOH WOW!! I'M GOING TO WORK AT PREEEESTOOOOO!!!!) ???????? but dang! They made a mistake on my order and didn't add the shrimp then lied and said if you wants some you can come back and order some! Yet he read back my order.....with the shrimp added!! I replied what! "Ok so, I live in the other side of town. I'm hoping to drive aaaall the way back there to buy ( I'm sure like 3 little shrimp) for a price I'm sure I can buy a bag at SAVE A NOT NOW?? to pay for something you boo-boo'd on?.....What the mess!So where do they do that at?..... PRESTO! On Carlisle road! smhPh and on the photos, the plate pics..... someone bought extra?? also you see how low the food is in the carton? There's isn't a picture from the side right? ????There's an echo of food in the little carton!It was a snack!! An expensive snack!!Done with Pesto. I'll just make it myself when craving such!

We took too long to pick up so they drew a turtle 10/10
Excellent food!! Nice portion size. Pasta and veggies were cooked to perfection and the bolognese sauce did not disappoint! The only thing that would have completely knocked this meal out of the park would be a piece of rustic Italian bread!

Food and service is amazing. Fresh pasta within minutes. Also, priced right. My family of 5 with a picky eater and another kid that eats like a full blown adult. Everyone was very happy with their meals! Also, a small business.

We went to their S. Queen St. location recently. I would love to give this place a five, but two of our three orders weren't correct. And they combined two of our checks, when we wanted separate checks. I ordered my pasta with meatballs. When I got it home, there were no meatballs. To be fair, I wasn't charged for a protein. The sauce that is a mixture of marinara and Alfredo was delicious. My brother requested chicken as his protein. He was charged for a protein, but there was no chicken in his! If I go there again, I will stand close by and watch as they prepare my food.

Bummed - I’ve tried this spot 3 times and every single time my order was wrong. Regular noodles when I asked for zoodles, wrong sauce, wrong toppings. 3rd times a charm, not returning!

We usually order twice a month here since they've opened. The service has always been amazing, and the food matches it! We can't get enough of the pesto/alfredo blend!!
