Prego Della Piazza was a fine dining restaurant which was one of the oldest in Toronto. Following financial difficulties, it closed down on March 31, 2010.
History
[edit | edit source]Prego Della Piazza was opened in 1987 by Michael Carlevale, an Italian chef from Boston.[1] After the closure of Bemelmans in 1994, Prego increased in popularity, as its discreetness attracted celebrities.[2]
However Carlevale had made bad investments in other restaurants and the subsequent financial difficulties bankrupted him.[3][4] Following a slump in business caused by nearby construction, the company that managed the plaza where Prego Della Piazza was located chose not to extend the restaurant's lease in early 2010.[4]
