Bottega Caruso

The 21 Best Restaurants In Margate

"A meal at Bottega Caruso feels like the manifestation of all your Italian holiday home dreams, in Margate. This tiny Campanian spot is a flickering living room of a restaurant from Thursday to Sunday evenings (it’s lunch-only on Wednesdays). Books and jars of tomato sauce sit on the shelves beside you, and bowls of hearty pesto-clad gnocchi in front. Its changing menu is as irresistible as the homely, amiable atmosphere—and polpette di pane al sugo (bread balls in sauce) or light-as-a-feather slabs of tiramisu will live long in the memory. Bear in mind this place only has just over half a dozen tables, so booking is essential." - jake missing, daisy meager, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
