Local restaurant legend Burt Rapoport is welcoming back devotees to the 2.0 resurrection of his 1990s Italian mini chain in Park Place plaza, after short-lived attempts at New York-style delis. “Well over half of our guests were fans of one of the three previous Prezzos,” he says. “Most come in to get the roasted garlic and focaccia breadsticks, fusilli pasta ($24) and the wood-oven apple tart ($9). Many want to share their memories.”

James Beard Award-winning chef Mark Militello has created modern additions, such as tomato risotto croquettes ($9) and the mozzarella bar with up to six selections ($4-$10) plus charcuterie and accompaniments, and is continuing the tradition of thin-crust pizzas, such as shrimp scampi ($18), another throwback.
