Reviews
My friends and I had such a lovely time at Botte. The bartender made us some drinks off of his upcoming menu, and they were phenomenal. The carrot martini was super yummy; it was the highlight of my meal. My friend had a smoky boulevardier that impressed everyone at the table, as well. The gnocchi and branzino were super delicious. All of the staff were very attentive and helpful, and the restaurant itself had a nice atmosphere. Would definitely come back here again, especially to try whatever new drinks the bartender has in store.
This place is incredible! The happy hour menu was excellent and runs until 7pm. The Cacio e Pepe Gnocchi was to die for! Servers were very friendly as well! Don’t skip the desserts either!
I wanted to give a shout-out to the bartender Anthony and the manager Davide!! Anthony explained the crab cake special to me in such an eloquent way that I just needed to order it and it was unbelievably amazing and it paired so well with the heatwave cocktail. UGH chefs kiss. I will absolutely be coming back here as a local spot!!
We love this place. We come for happy hour all the time and occasionally branch out for the chicken parm with vodka sauce. The salads are tasty and the staff are so friendly, this is our neighborhood spot! We even got our engagement photos taken here!
