Located in Hawthorne"s historic Degray house, Bottagra Restaurant opened its doors in early 2008. What was once used as an encampment for General Lafayette's troops during the Revolutionary War has been transformed into a modern, elegant restaurant with the feel and charm of a Tuscan villa. Chef-Owners Robert Vicari and Carlo Carbonaro have fused their extensive restaurant experience together to offer a variety of dishes hailing from both the northern and southern regions of Italy. Offering a full bar and extensive wine list, as well as private rooms, Bottagra
is a diners' dream for gatherings both large and small.

    The Christmas decor is over the top and worth going to see. The artichoke was the best.

    Food was so so - little flavor and bland and not very good for the expensive prices. Service was great, but just disappointed in the quality of the food.

    Love the restaurant ambiance and will definitely return but what we ordered for food was pretty good but not great. The clams were not as tasty as they were under baked. DRinks pretty good.
