"This branch of Prezzo is part of the Pipeworks area in Swadlincote, that also includes an Odeon cinema, and a well frequented branch of Costa Coffee. Quite a sizeable restaurant with tables on two floors, very spacious, no table being too close, so even when it is very busy, the dining experience is a relaxed one. The best tables are probably to the rear of the restaurant, in a semi-circular room, which offers great views of the local area. In the main part of the restaurant is the food preparation area so you can see your dishes being made.Menu wise, there is a lot of choice from grills to salads, pizzas to pasta, and lots of constantly changing specials. The pizzas, come in three variants light (for smaller appetites), classic and VIP (extra toppings). The Vesuvio is particularly good, but with the red roquito chilli peppers, and double pepperoni, it is on the spicy side though!. Pasta also comes in two variants: light (smaller portion, more salad) and classic; you can even have two of the pastas, in slightly smaller portions if you are indecisive. The lobster and crab tortelli, with red chilli and spinach, in a saffron sauce, is fantastic dish, packed with flavour.Of course dessert is almost compulsory, and the variety of offer at Prezzo is impressive, if a little expensive, the Honeycomb Smash Cheescake is a favourite, but last time we dined here I chose one of the specials: the Salted Caramel Arctic Slice, the saltiness of the caramel, the perfect compliment to the ice cream and sponge. If you're a little full after the main, you can have a small dessert, with a hot drink; the profiterole with chocolate and a cappucino is my wife's favourite. Overall, great food, a relaxed ambience and helpful, efficient staff; which makes it a popular venue in Swadlincote"
