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.

First time here & we looooooved it. The pizza & the calzone were spectacular, we had the Margherita pizza & the calzone, & both were incredible. We also tried the arancinis, which were really good.

The only thing I wouldn't really recommend is the arugula salad. It's not bad at all, just nothing special, & I don't think it's worth the price.

But everything else was absolutely delicious. The service was amazing, the place is beautiful, the vibe is super cozy, & it all feels really authentic.

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.

We are in Montreal for Memorial Day weekend & after a long day of exploring had decided to visit Little Italy. Our first place was booked up so, we decided to take our chances & try Bottega. When we first arrived our hostess was not sure if they could seat us. However, she told me to hang on for 5 minutes & after that she was able to find us a table.
The food was amazing & fresh, we started with calamari, & a house made salad. Amazing! The owner was such a friendly person & spent some of his time talking to us. He & his staff are quite welcoming & the food is spot on. If in Montreal I highly recommend stopping here.

Impeccable service, nice atmosphere & quality ingredients. We had the best salad & the stuffed pizza of the day. The dough was crispy on the outside & soft on the inside, which just the right amount of wood fire toastiness. The flavor was well balanced & delicious. Good selection of wines & digestifs.
