Delicious lunch!
Service was excellent. Street parking.
The serving of clams were generous and tasty. Usually, appetizers are scant. This was more like an entree.
Loved the house dressing on the Caesar salad. I have seen other restaurants prepare it in front of me. Although they didn't, it did taste fresh. Which I appreciated.
We ordered a half order of the ravioli. Wished we ordered a full plate. It was THAT good. I knew the lasagna was going to be a big portion, so we held back on ordering the larger portion of the lasagna. Our attempt to control our portions.
The lasagna was good. My husband said I make better lasagna. But it's a lot of work. So I appreciated the lasagna more than he did. I love a lasagna with a lot of sauce. It held up well. Didn't fall apart. And the blend of spices, sauce, and cheese was lovely.
The tiramisu was good. I've had better. If you like a tiramisu that's mild. Not too sweet. And you can't taste the liqueur. Than this is the tiramisu for you.
The ambience was okay. Not romantic.
Overall, my husband and I enjoyed our meal.
In fact, I posted the pictures on my Facebook page, and my two daughters, and their mom-in-law (eldest daughter's) are going to dinner this week, at La Bottega. Of course I'm going!
I am curious to see if the transition of ownership will be seamless to customers. The previous owners sold this restaurant. However, the employees and menu will be retained.
Definitely try the appetizers, entrees, wine, and desserts at this restaurant.
CHEERS!
