Extremely Loud Place & Extremely Slow/Rude Hostesses. This place was recommended to us by our hotel but with the heads-up that it was a little loud. We thought - that's ok, how loud can it be? This place is SO. LOUD. Once inside we went to put in our name for a reservation. I literally stood in front of the hostess stand, with 4 hostesses standing behind it, and went completely ignored for at LEAST 5 minutes. I eventually had to ask if I could add my name. I was looked at as though I were worthless and they indeed wrote down my name... and circled it. I went ahead and assumed that little circle meant that we would indeed by seated last, if ever. We left and had a wonderful experience elsewhere.

cool spot. I brought some friends here yesterday and we all became fans. The restaurant looks very good and the service is just amazing. My chicken milanese was above average but my red velvet cupcake was amazing. All my friends seemed to like what they ordered. I was taken aback at 1st because I got used to the fact that when I ordered something, starch usually comes with it like mashed or roasted potato, etc; so when we got our food, we all looked at each other wondering where the sides were since all we got was only our chicken. I guess I should have read the menu closer because it said nothing that the entrees came with anything. I'm giving them 5 stars because the service more than made up for my above average chicken.

I didn't try anything from the bar but my friend did and he said he said their white russian is on point and he's the type of guy that would throw his drink back to the bartender if it wasn't good enough.

Superb desserts. The berry creme tort is light, creamy, and perfect for a sweet but not heavy dessert.

Really good. I went to Bottega for dinner. The service is top notch without a flaw. But as for the food? I had the lamb, which was perfect in size (4oz) for $11. My daughter had the pizza. I also had the Caesar.

The atmosphere is high energy and mod. But the food was nothing impressive.
