    Bottaio is consistent and reliable. We tend to order our favorites as we don't go often. Service is impeccable.

    4 of us for Dinner. Service and wait staff was exceptional and attentive to our needs. Food was served hot, well prepared and visually appealing. I had the Veal Parmesan. This was the best I've had in a while. A big portion Veal Chop with bone. I would come again definitely. Price point for what you get was a great value.

    First they overbook or can’t keep up in kitchen. 7pm reservation. Seated at 7:45. Appetizer came out quick. Didn’t eat dinner till 8:45. Main courses were excellent. Caesar Yuck! Minestrone soup. Very average. Bruschetta good. Had 2 pasta dish’s. Family liked a lot. Veal Chop was excellent. Service was excellent. I will go back but will make 5:00 reservations so I can get out at reasonable time. Don’t like going to bed and still being full.

    Really good. However, the noise level is off putting. If measures are done to mitigate the noise, it would be a better experience.

    First time at this restaurant and the food was amazing. Our server and the rest of the staff was very attentive, the hostess was friendly and the ambiance welcoming. My only negative would be the noise level. It was incredibly loud. I plan to visit again, but am thinking maybe a little earlier might be a better option as there would be fewer customers and the noise level might not be as bad.

    Bottaio's is my parents' favorite restaurant, so naturally, we went for my mom's birthday lol. As always, great service, amazing warm bread, and delicious pasta. My mom always gets the linguini with mushrooms, and my dad gets linguine with calamari. I opted for the homemade raviolis in a creamy walnut sauce, and it was delicious! I also appreciate that our server sang happy birthday ☺️
