About

Bottega specializes in authentic Neapolitan pizza crafted with high-quality ingredients imported directly from Italy. Each pie features a soft, blistered crust prepared in a traditional wood-fired oven designed to deliver an optimal charred finish. The menu highlights classic flavor combinations ranging from margherita to specialized regional recipes that respect time-honored artisanal techniques. Beyond the signature pizzas, the establishment offers a selection of small plates featuring premium cured meats, imported cheeses, and fresh seasonal vegetables. The dining space emphasizes a functional, industrial-inspired aesthetic that prioritizes the communal experience centered around the heat of the central hearth. Patrons engage with a menu that avoids excessive complexity, focusing instead on the precise execution of core Italian culinary staples within a robust, high-traffic environment designed for consistent performance and rapid service delivery.

Great service at Bottega last night from each individual person who helped serve our party. The pizza was terrific, though I guess I'd have hoped for a touch more variety on the menu. Perhaps more salad or pasta options. Then again it IS a pizzeria, so that's mostly my bad. The pizza is worthwhile for sure, & the fried calamari is super fresh!

This is not the fist time go to this restaurant. As usual, the food was awesome. we had two of the 4 starters of the day. both were perfect. The tuna & the mista salad were really good. I then had the pasta of the day & my wife a pizza. again, everything was perfect. refined & tasty. I know this place can be loud so I was not surprised. I just want people to know that on a weekend evening, there is great atmosphere so it can be bit loud. I really don't mind it because it such a great place. Thank you to the chef & my waitress who had impeccable service. i had a great evening.

I had an amazing dinner tonight at Bottega, renowned for its Italian cuisine, & it did not disappoint! The pasta with gamberetto was simply divine, perfectly cooked with rich, fresh flavors. The ambiance was warm & inviting, & the staff were attentive & friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. Whether you're craving authentic Italian dishes or looking for a cozy dinner spot, Bottega is a must-visit. Highly recommended!

We just ate here this evening. We took a chance they would have room without a reservation. We sat at the bar & we were not disappointed. The woman who seated us was very attentive. The pasta was amazing! I had gnocchi & my dinner companion ordered puttanesca. Everything was super. The pino grigio, the pasta , the focaccia (for the sauce of course), so fresh snd light. We ended up ordering a pizza to go for lunch tomorrow. Thank you again, can't wait to come back!

The service was really really good. However, the pasta was undercooked, not in a way Al dente, it was absolutely raw inside. We asked the server to return the dish. I think broiling pasta is really the basic

Delicious pizza & pasta dishes. The waiters are very kind & the overall environment of the restaurant is great; welcoming & cozy. Will definitely be coming back soon. Also, ask for the chili sauce if you get a pizza, it’s extremely flavourful & adds a ton of flavour to your dish.
