Seguimos la recomendación de la señorita del front y ordenamos la lasagna y de tomar limonada de fresa. Adicional pedimos chips de garlic con jalapeño para acompañar. La ensalada de entrada, está buena, nada del otro mundo. La lasagna me esperaba algo extremadamente rico pero no, estaba pasable y muy ácida (creo que era por la salsa verde); hasta frijoles tenía, cosa que nunca había probado. El lugar limpio si, ambiente bueno con su música. Muy caro, refiriéndome al precio, no se si regresaría.

I think they are by far the best pasta spot in the city! The first time I was here, I was blown…read moreaway by the flavor of gnocchi with pesto even though it was served in paper plates. The interior feels like Italy and you can even see the dishes getting prepared live due to open setup! This time we were a big bunch of 12 adults (most of us being vegetarians) and a few kids but they accommodated all of our chaotic ordering and dietary preferences! Notably they have gluten free pasta on the menu and a ton of vegetarian friendly options!! All of us loved the quality of the food! This is going to be my go to pasta spot!

Went with the lunch special since I was planning on trying a pasta anyway and was eyeing the cookie and salads. So glad I did, the arugula salad was simple but delicious and fresh, helped break up the heavier sandwich and pasta, and the cookie was an excellent dessert! Calabrian fried chicken sandwich - excellent juicy and crispy chicken, with a little slaw and pepperoncini, and a great Rize Up sesame hoagie roll that really holds it together without getting soggy. Not at all spicy so don't be nervous. Agnolotti dal plin - maybe not my favorite pasta but beautifully made, very flavorful in a savory roast sauce. Glad we tried it. They have quite a beverage selection. This time we shared a tasty yuzu beer. Would probably explore their wines next time. Think bottles are half off before 3:30 which is pretty incredible.

The ambiance is nice, the plants and the slightly upscale feel make it a nice place to sit and eat. I stopped in for lunch on a Wednesday and I had my pick of tables. You order at the counter in the pasta shop and seat yourself. They bring out your food but the water and clean up is all self-serve. I got the Salumi sandwich and it was delicious. It was stacked with Italian cold cuts, lettuce, red wine vinegar and pepper relish on a sesame hoagie roll. Very filling and very satisfying! I want to try their other sandwiches but hard to try something else when I know this one is so good.

So far, I've had the Lasagna Bolognese, Fettuccine Alfredo, Chicken Parmigiana, Ribeye, and Brussels Sprouts. I've also tried several of the desserts. Everything has been outstanding! They've also been incredibly accommodating of my dietary preferences, which I really appreciate. A special shoutout to Giovanni, the General Manager, for helping create such a great dining experience. It's clear that a lot of care goes into both the food and the service. I highly recommend Bottega if you're looking for great Italian food in a beautiful setting!

She got Ravioli with meat and we got authentic Italian sodas - all delivered to our table by a very kind waitress. The staff here is very friendly and all take their jobs with passion. The vibes here are very chill yet reminiscent of a homely restaurant set in 1940s New York. You will be transported in time and culture with every bite you take.
