The restaurant featured Italian staples to-go, as well as fast-casual dine-in service, including popular lunch specials.

The business still operates its other locations, including one in Plano and the original, long-standing Prego Pasta House on Greenville, which opened in 1982 by the Barraco family, using their matriarch’s own recipes.
