Bota is a new addition to Staten Island. I love the intent of the location. However, this location still has some evolving. There is nothing in the area to do afterward. But if you're looking for a chill vibe and descent food this could be it. Prices were a bit steep where you're paying $50 for pork chops. The lollipop chicken was done in a buffalo sauce. I just think with these prices their food should stand out. But it really didn't. Not many options for kids. The decor is beautiful and the intent is great. But it's on a residential block, it's not park avenue or the village. That's just my take. All I can say is I told you so. read more

I finally give try them. Met a friend for lunch. The ambiance, the service, the food, as full vibe is top notch. I have a sals with salmon and it was awesome. The servings at very generous. The waiter was a class act. He surprised us with a nice grapefruit mocktail that was out of this world. I'm not a drinker and only do mocktails so I'm sold. I now have this in my Staten Island rotation. Bringing my hubby date night. Check them out y'all, it lives up to the hype!! read more

Visited on Valentine's Day and enjoyed their 4-course fixed menu. I've never spent much time in Staten Island, but passing through from a preview event in Brooklyn, I decided to give it a try--and I'm glad I did. The restaurant has a cozy yet upscale vibe, perfect for an intimate evening. The food was excellent, our server Sergio was pleasant, attentive, and offered great menu recommendations, and they even had a DJ playing music, which added a really nice touch to the atmosphere. read more

This is a Grown & Sexy hole in the wall ! I loved the decor & aesthetic. There's valet parking but we did street. The upstairs is kinda small , Downstairs is a bit more spacious. My lychee martini was good it was just spritzier than normal. My entree (pasta ) was tasteless. I mostly enjoyed the chicken appetizer & bread. Service was great, & they made my pre birthday dinner feel special read more

Where to begin? First time here. Valet is available and there is a bouncer it is 21 and over. They had a dJ playing freestyle music. Food was good. Small menu. Service was good. The only reason I am not giving them a 5, they only have wine and sangria. I wanted a Martini. Nope. I believe our server said they are waiting on liquor license? How do you not tell anyone there is no hard liquor served? Very weird. Food was good I will come back when they have liquor. It is right on st marks place. Also there is a unisex bathroom. read more

Had reservations for a Sat night for 7:30. We arrived around 7:15/20ish. Hostess told us they were full downstairs, but we were able to be seated on the main level which was fine. Very intimate, it def gave the aesthetics, I believe one restroom as I saw people coming from downstairs to use the bathroom in the main floor. Many cute spots for pictures. DJ i believe is downstairs and had a good mix going. Service: was ok. I only saw maybe 2 servers and they both looked like they were also working downstairs and the main floor. So they were busy which meant a lot longer time to get to our table. It took a long time for water refills. Took a while for food to come out as well. Idk if it's cause it's only 2 servers from what I saw. Food: apps we ordered were delish! The chef even came out to give us some complimentary apps which I thought was so nice. Short rib buns--a must order. Sooo good. I tried the octopus as well--the char on that bad boy was amazing! Now for the entrees--not what I expected. I ordered the mussels as my entree. The bread was burnt that was served with it. The broth was bland. No flavor which was so disappointing. At least throw some salt and pepper, but tasted like nothing. A good amount of mussels were served, but in a flavorless sauce. Ugh so disappointing. My friend ordered the Spicy Rigatoni which i thought the pasta would be Rigatoni, but they must of gotten the order wrong and they brought out the pappardelle ragu. We didn't realize it since we were so hungry and the food took a while to come out. She wasn't a fan of it. I tried a piece and also not a fan. Nothing stood out for it. They were nice enough to do a birthday thing for my friend. It was chocolate mousse, again nothing to it. I will say if you come here be prepared to stay more than 2+ hrs. We didn't leave till about 10:30 as we were waiting for the food and the check. I will say, that I'd come back to try more of the menu since this establishment is new and those short rib buns sold me! read more

I came for restaurant week with a friend. We sat on the first floor. Low lighting, airline could since it's by the door, and the dj was great. I ordered the burrata and tomatoes app, chicken picatta entree and churri dessert. My friend got the meatball app, steak frites entree, and tiramisu dessert. They come out with little fried cheese balls and focaccia bread. They were both so good. The meatball app is amazing. The meatballs were well seasoned. They burrata and tomatoes were good. The portion was big enough for two people. Now here's where everything goes down hill. The chicken picatta comes on the bone. I would've rathered cutlets. The chicken just tasted like oil. I could barely get the meat off the bone. The mashed potatoes asparagus and gravy were the best part of the dish. My friend ordered his steak medium well. It came out burnt and extremely well done. So well done it was dry and tough. A good portion of it was fatty too. By this time the place is getting busy. They have one waitress working the bar, the first floor and the basement. Way too much for one person. Now we've been in for awhile so we wanted to take our dessert and get the check. We hadn't seen her in awhile and then she comes out with the desserts. So we say ok we'll eat them real quick. The churros were not good at all. Just fried dough. My friend was saying his tiramisu was wet. He pressed down on the cake and water came out. It was disgusting and the coffee was overbearing. read more

This place is a hidden gem. Upon arriving, Maria made our family feel more than welcomed with her engaging personality. From the appetizers to the main course and sangria they truly knocked it out of the park. We would describe Bota as having character, kudos to the owner for her wonderful taste in decor, we loved it!!! It was our first but definitely won't be our last time at your place, continue your great work!!! read more

Place is really nice, comfortable, chic decor. Everyone that assisted us was friendly and professional. Food was very pricey but pretty good. We shared the short rib steamed buns and the charcuterie potato croquettes. The short rib buns were delicious. Best thing we tried. Charcuterie croquettes were nothing special. We expected something along the lines of charcuterie ingredients but it was basically potato croquettes n pastosa's are better. Also we were given an app which I can't remember the name of, 2 little fried balls which were tasty. We shared chocolate lava cake which was good. Both of us only had water and w tip it was $33 each. Expensive for 2 apps n a pice of cake at lunch time. read more

I was being taken out for my belated birthday, and I asked to be surprised, as long as it was on Staten Island. It was a week night, work night so, didn't want to venture out too far. I was given the address without the name of the place to meet up there. I was a bit confused because I work in that area, and had no knowledge of a restaurant around there. It was down the block from where you go to pay your summons on St. Marks Place. While driving there, I approached some decorative lights, if I would have blink, would have missed it. There was plenty of parking in front. The restaurant is not that visible from the street. It is like a hidden gem on Staten Island. When walking in, you are in awe of the beautiful decor. I have seen nothing like it on Staten Island. Very trendy and edgy looking first floor lounge. We descended to the bottom floor where the main dining area is situated. It is a very serene atmosphere. It reminded me of Lisa Vanderpump's restaurant SUR in Los Angeles. I have not seen anything of this caliber on Staten Island. I was very impressed. Loved the name, as well, which means World in Albanian. The menu is very diverse, Bota is the perfect name for this restaurant because the menu is a fusion of different flavors. We ordered the calamari and short rib steam buns as appetizers. Both were excellent. My favorite entre to have usually involves shrimp, BUT, not on the menu. I ordered the next best thing, the lobster risotto. I can tell you, I was not disappointed. It was outstanding. My dinner partner was full from the appetizers, so she ordered the tuna tartare as a dinner option. She was very satisfied with her dish. The executive chef, Carlos, was out in the dining room and part of the food presentation. Have never met a chef so passionate about his creations. He does an excellent job. Our server, Gonzalo, was very personable and attentive throughout our entire dining experience. Excellent service at this restaurant. I was so pleased our first impression of this restaurant, that I am proud to say it has become my favorite on the Island. I highly recommend everyone to try it. You will be highly impressed. Welcome to Staten Island, BOTA. This type of venue is long overdue on this island. Thank you for an excellent dining experience. I will surely be back!! Parking: Ample parking on the street.

Food: 5/5 absolutely blown away from the apps. Calamari was fresh and the marinara was the best I've ever had (a tad sweet and super fresh. Nice attention to detail with the cover on the lemon so the seeds don't spread over the calamari. The crispy tuna rice was amazing as well, well balanced and super fresh. I would order both of them again. I ordered the lobster risotto and it didn't disappointment the creaminess was to die for and the lobster was super fresh. The quality of ingredients used over all was just stunning. My guy had penne vodka , the sauce was outrageously delicious. I thought it was odd that there was no protein option to go with it so basically we paid 30$ for a box of penne but the sauce and way it was prepared made it so worth it. It's their 2nd day open and they were so kind as to offer the best carrot cake I've ever ate in my life and my partners chocolate mousse was smooth and luscious. We also got complimentary prosecco which was a sweet touch. To note: for now it seems they have no liquor license but their mock tails were also top notch. I had the spicy mockarita and my guy got the blueberry mule. Bota has a gorgeous wine selection so that is a good pairing to the exquisite food. Service: 5/5 Adrian the floor manager kept checking in which was nice. Our waitress was on point. It felt like fine dining but not stuffy or pretentious. The attention to detail was really nice. Bathroom: 5/5 very clean. Above and beyond is the offering of mouthwash, floss, and other small pleasantries. Ambience: walking in , it feels similar to the Coupe (I would have to research if the same owner). Lounge feel, portraits of vintage models/actresses like Kate Moss and Marilyn Monroe. The bar is cute and off to the right when you walk in. I could see it getting crowded when they get packed and have people waiting for resy but the lounge must be for the overflow or those who only want to grab a drink. Everyone was super nice and very interested in making sure we were happy. I would definitely return for the food quality as a nice date night treat. read more

We chose Bota Supper Club to celebrate our anniversary based on the beautiful photos and videos online. The ambience itself is nice, and the décor is thoughtfully done, but the space is much smaller in person than it appears on Instagram. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to expectations. We ordered calamari as an appetizer, two entrées, and four cocktails, and everything was surprisingly bland and lacking flavor. The cocktails were especially disappointing, priced around $17-$19 each for the ones we ordered, yet they didn't taste like they contained real alcohol and seemed to be made primarily with very cheap prosecco. Had we known this beforehand, we would not have chosen to spend our money here. Nothing about the dining experience stood out or felt memorable, and to make matters worse, we both ended up with upset stomachs after getting home. For a bill totaling over $250, the experience felt extremely mediocre and not worth the price. Overall, while the ambiance is pleasant, the food, drinks, and value did not justify the cost, and we would not return. read more

Un lugar visualmente mágico, con música de Dj que hizo un ambiente genial las luces tenues y lámparas doradas en las mesas le da un toque de lujo que impacta! Su decoración floral en el techo te lleva a un mundo mágico así que es ideal para compartir La comida sin duda una de las mejores que he probado! Comimos langosta y estaba perfectamente preparada y un corte de carne de primera que sin duda alguna volveré por el... La atención de su personal y el servicio exclusivo del Chef a la mesa es excepcional todos fueron realmente amables, atentos y muy educados El servicio de valet parking es un plus.. apenas llegamos salieron a recoger mi carro y nos dirigieron a la puerta con sombrillas ya que ese día llovía muy fuerte de verdad que fue muy atento! 100% recomendado!

Bota Supper Club - Menú especial de fin de año - Supper Clubs Near Me - Staten Island, New York

After reading all these 5 Star reviews I wonder if I was in the same restaurant last night? I'll start on a positive note! There is nothing at all wrong with the location,the atmosphere or the service. They gave us a choice of sitting upstairs or downstairs and we chose downstairs. At first quiet but cold...really cold. Then the music kicked in very LOUD. As we were the only ones there at 6:30 we asked them to lower it...which they did...for about five minutes.‍. They had a list of cocktails that all sounded interesting...but no liquor was mentioned. When I was asked which liquors were in the cocktails, I was told by one of our THREE waiters that spirits were forbidden due to the restaurant's proximity to a Mosque...what??? We should have left right then and there. They then brought us three tiny tasteless cheese balls and three bite sized pieces of bread with a Harissa dipping sauce. Two appetizers...charred octopus and spicy tuna on crispy rice...were flavorful but scarce for the price. Then three entrees...lobster risotto,spicy rigatoni with shrimp (which was an extra charge) and chicken piccata. These were not cheap...$39,$42 and $36 respectively. Well, the risotto barely had any lobster in it, the rigatoni was bland and I don't even know where to begin with the piccata? There was a quarter of a roast chicken...bone in...with a dollop of mashed potatoes and four thin asparagus stalks and a wedge of grilled lemon. No capers...no nice lemon juice,no flavor. I'm sorry...there are NO BONES in chicken piccata!!! But it was too late in the evening to complain and we were hungry. Then a DJ appeared and really pumped up the volume...thank God we were leaving! Oh, did I mention...$250 for a bland meal with no drinks! Never again! read more

I was at Bota for two and they didn't disappoint. The food every time was excellent. I got the chicken parm and spaghetti and pork chops the last visit. The service was very good and attentive to my needs. The place is very trendy which I loved. Oh I forgot to mention there was a DJ and the music wasn't too loud. Definitely be back! read more

Did a Friday night date night with my husband.. (we had reservations) first of the walk in this place is chic sexy it definitely gives grown and sexy vibes. They have a sitting area and then a dining area downstairs. Very nice . The service is great the waiters are very attentive! The food the short rib bun is a must !!!!! Lollipop chicken wings are really good the sriracha sauce definitely has a kick but an also has a honey taste. The decor in the dining area is very cozy and intimate. -New York strip steak was cooked to my husband liking the crust on the steak was absolutely delicious the flavor was delicious -harvest chicken was seasoned well vey juicy the potatoes underneath were delicious again the only issue I had was the temperature of the food was warm . Even the appetizers very good but just warm . So the cons are ...... -They do not serve hard alcohol only wine and champagne all their drinks have a wine base mixed with some kind of juice. -When you order sangria if you order a pitcher they don't have pitcher carafes (4 glasses = a pitcher) not to bad considering the size , I recommend getting a pitcher if you plan on having more than one it's just cost effective. -The food was definitely seasoned very well and very delicious BUT the temperature of the food was just like warm which either gives that food is premade and reheated or it's sitting in the window to long and is what they call "dying". Overall this is a really nice cozy spot for date night the price point is not too expensive. Dessert was churros with chocolate sauce and salted caramel sauce with ice cream . *CHEFS KISS* delicious. Again I would definitely come back !! Parking is not bad but if there's a show at the theater parking maybe limited they do offer valet. I also strongly recommend making a reservation as this has a small intimate dining area you definitely want to insure that you will be able to get a table. read more

Everything that we tried on the menu was fantastic & cooked to perfection. let me tell you we almost ordered everything!!!

What a wonderful find. Located on St. Marks Place, a little off of Bay Street, is Bota Supper Club. The space has a lovely & inviting decor with a top & lower level. It was Tuesday 5/6/2025 a latin night, so the air was filled with Spanish beats and a little of everything else, compliments of DJ Miss Patty. She did a great job of keeping us moving in our seats. The excellent service provided by Sergio was attentive & friendly. The octopus, bronzino, and shrimp risotto were delicious. We enjoyed everything about Bota and are so very happy that this little treasure is located in our backyard, Staten Island. read more

There's so much to be said but who wants to read a novel. To say the least, it far surpassed expectations. To say the most, the best restaurant in Staten Island to date! The Food was presented with an artistic display and culinary precision. Definitely portioned for sharing. The subtle not so subtle details in the decor and across the board were so elegant and tasteful. Kudos to the designers, chef and Staff! Octopus appetizer, Lobster risotto, NY strip and Pappardelle Ragu were INSANE! read more

This place needs to get over itself! Made a reservation 27 days in advance yet when we arrived, they had no record, we were only left standing at the doorway for a few minutes and were eventually seated so not such a big deal. we were seated downstairs, which is a great little room but, in our opinion, it was just way too cold and on the verge of being uncomfortable. The place was only half full upstairs and only 3 other couples' downstairs, yet it still took 15 minutes to have our drink order taken. Be advised that they are not yet serving alcohol so that left us with a wine or sangria choice. we opted for Sangria which was a small decanter filled 75% with ice which came along with 2 wine glasses that were 100% full of ice. There was so much ice that it was falling from the decanter while the sangria was poured, so much ice that you couldn't even get fruit into your glass as it was buried. you could barely taste any wine, so it was an ice filled decanter with glorified fruit juice, a serious rip off. it took 20 more minutes once ordered for it to arrive and finally be poured. They gave us 2 small pieces of bread that went to waste once we realized that it was wet from melting ice that fell on the dish. Then the Chef comes over with 2 tiny appetizers the size of a cherry tomato and uses a smoke gun to elicit some oohs and ahhs but we were not impressed and by now were starving and just wanted to eat and get moving. so we ordered two apps, some caviar croquette thing that was very tasty but the entire dish consisted of 3 pieces that were almost cherry tomato size as well, way too pricey for what was delivered. the second app was little pieces of fatty steak on a stick. the portion was better but the flavor was lacking. stay strong its almost over was the feeling at this point. finally we ordered main courses. Lobster Risotto and Filet Mignon wellington. The Risotto was under which was a shame because the flavor wasn't so bad. The filet had a real nice cook on it however i did not appreciate the inedible piece of fat that was attached to it and the Duxelles was straight nasty, the mashed potatoes were good, but the three pieces of asparagus were way passed their dates. if I was cooking at home i would have thrown them out instead of serving them discolored and wilted. So, 2 hours in at this point and they offer dessert, but we were out of time due to a nearby show that was about to start. The place is nice, the servers are friendly and i get the concept they are going for but the food was not up to the price point and the whole experience came off as pretentious read more

Amazing Place. Great Ambiance. Staff is Excellent. Owners are soo gracious and humble. Outstanding people!
