Prego’s Seafood Season

September 23, 2019

If you love Italian food and seafood you can experience something special at Prego Mediterranean at The District at Tustin Legacy for a limited time only. Prego Mediterranean celebrates the best in Seafood Season, Italian style, with a special menu available through October 6.

Inspired by Chef Ugo Allesina’s Italian roots and his love for its coastal cuisine, Prego created a an Italian seafood-centric menu with favorites such as the Zuppa di Pesce with Manila clams, mussels, scallops; and Cozze Del Marinaio, Black Santa Barbara Mussels with white wine, garlic, clam juice, dash of chili flakes, served with crisp Tuscan bread. Paired with white Sangra.

Chef Ugo’s gnocchi is the best I’ve ever had: Gnocchi Portofino, a potato dumpling, mixed with shrimp sautéed in white wine, tossed with sun-dried tomatoes and creamy pesto. Paired with Pinot Grigio, Abbazi. And the Misto Griglia with mixed grilled assortment of tuna, salmon, jumbo fresh water prawns, fillet of white pacific fish, topped with lemon, garlic, and herbs, served with roasted potatoes and vegetables. Paired with Chardonnay, Chateau St. Jean.

Another must is the Lasagna di Pesce, with layers of spinach pasta, béchamel, ragout of crustaceans and fresh seafood, baked and finished with fresh mozzarella. Paired with Greco di Tufo, Terre d’Aione.

The wine pairings and special flights are available only during the Seafood Season at Prego.

Open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday to Thursday; 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.

2409 Park Ave, Tustin. 949.553.1333.
