As I have said before, I normally don't like to review after only a first visit, but I was so pleased with our spur of the moment lunch at Presto, that I believe it deserves the great review it's earned. First off, I live down the street and I've seen this place for the longest but have never tried it. My girlfriends and I wanted to grab a filling but healthy type lunch and I couldn't help but think of pictures on yelp looking so delicious and appetizing that I was salivating from just the photos.
We walk in around 1pm and it's not busy at all, but there was just something so simple and quaint about this cafe. And definitely a healthy choice with several salad options to pick from, A?ai bowls, and gluten free options! Super friendly family oriented staffing and you just sorta coulda feel you were gonna get a home cooked quality Mediterranean type healthy meal.
They have water available for self refill, that's mixed with mint, cucumber and I believe watermelon! I thought that was a pretty cool free drinking option instead of just plain water. My sister and I ordered the turkey sandwich and our gf ordered hanger steak on top on couscous.
The turkey sandwich was on cranberry raisin panini bread, perfectly grilled with American cheese, avocado, and spring mix greens. The turkey was perfect, not dry at all and the sandwich was not wet or dripping in sauce or cheese it was just perfect. And it came accompanied with a small side salad with strawberries and apple slices.
The hanger steak on the couscous with pesto sauce was fabulous and looked just like the picture presented on the menu!!! The steak tender and juicy and marinated just perfect and the couscous with pesto cooked just right!! Mixed in with mushrooms!!
This definitely a place I can see coming back to for lunch dinner or even study snacking! They have free wifi too so always a plus. Portion sizing is equal to the pricing. So way to go local business!! You totally have my support!!
