    Excellent food. We went on a Thursday night and the place was jamming. The noise level made it very difficult to have a conversation, so I’d recommend going earlier in the week for dinner. Lunch is much quieter. But it’s worth going to for the quality of the meal, the good service and the lovely covered garden.

    This experience from start to finish was incredible. The hostess Ana was so professional and kind to kick off our dinner. The food was the best iv ever had in the city. My wife is Italian who just moved to New York 4 years ago and couldn’t stop talking about the pastas (get the Pici special) Meat board was sublime and it was the best arancini I have ever had. Thank you Bottino

    We ate in the garden area which is lovely. Our drinks and our food were delicious. The scallops were cooked perfectly. BUT everything took too long. By this I mean the wait time to order and then for the actual service of the beverages and food, including dessert. Also be prepared for a 3% service charge for using a credit card. I know this is getting popular in restaurants but it still feels like an unnecessary tax. The drinks and food are not inexpensive, so why the additional credit card charge?

    I haven’t been to this restaurant in over a decade. I remember when it opened. I was thrilled to see a vibrant dining room with friendly staff and good food. No attitude. Helpful som. Fresh bruschetta to start and delicious tagliatelle for main course. My partner had the broccolini to start and the branzino. All good. We will be back.

    Bottino restaurant is the best. There are so many reason why I love going there. The food is always fresh and so well prepared. Great menu. Great drinks. The waitstaff and everyone there is courteous. The space is so well laid out. The patio so lovely. I like that the tables are not on top of one another. Music is not blasting. It feels elegant yet without pretension. A perfect combination that is so rare to find in dining. Thank you Bottino!

    We have loved every meal at Bottino's from our first visit 7 years ago. The food is amazing - even if the ingredients don't appeal to you, the dish itself will be perfectly executed. The service is outstanding, from the welcoming front of house to the seamless ordering to wrapping up. If we lived nearby, it would be our "local," as we're don't, I make sure to savor the moments I'm there, so I can remember what a great restaurant feels like. Last night we started with the grilled peach & stracciatella appetizer w/heirloom tomatoes. This was a highly addictive combination and just right for the warm humid evening. We continued with a dinner of appetizers (& dessert) because they all sounded so tempting. The perfect fried artichokes with the batter flaking off in multiple sheets complimented by a light touch of mint, the arancini featuring local corn and marscapone, and thestuffed squash blossoms. All were delicious - I would recommend a spoon for the squash blossoms, as the stuffing is very runny. I would also suggest a bit more boquerones on the squash blossoms as I think the vinegary snap wasn't quite enough with the filets used (and more nduja spread would also be awesome). Dessert was the affogato -truly one of my favorite desserts, and Bottino's enhances theirs with just a touch of shaved dark chocolate. Despite these minor quibbles, this was a great night!!

    Wow. I can't say enough about the fantastic food and atmosphere at Bottino. We got together with extended family and shared some amazing food. The fried artichokes and stuffed squash blossoms were absolute stand outs. The diver scallops entree was delicious. My husband commented on the fragrance of it as the plate was delivered. He said he hadn't smelled scallops as fresh as that in a long time. The place is gorgeous, and the staff attentive and approachable. We will absolutely return.

    This is a superb restaurant with amazing food. The crispy artichoke appetizer is so delicious! The space is not big and the acoustics are poor, so it's one of those places where you have to shout at the person across from you to be heard. It's also popular, so quite crowded. The front check-in staff is a bit detached. I checked in quite early for my appointment and my guest checked in separately and told the woman at the front that he'd be waiting for me outside. The point is, she knew I was there (if she was paying attention) but never told me he was outside. When I tried to explain the issue to her, she literally ignored me. I think this restaurant is very busy, the staff works very hard, but they also tune you out.

    I would recommend for apps, wine and the outdoor dining (the outdoor seating should have background music... we had an early dinner and it was too quiet out there, beautiful, but quiet). We had the special, 40 oz, 100 day, dry aged steak and it was not great. The Artichoke and Arancini Apps and wine however, were spectacular.
