We enjoyed a very nice evening dining at Bottega in San Fran! They were over the top accommodating, the food was incredible & delicious & the atmosphere was romantic, clean and spacious. Our waiter was fabulous, giving great recommendations & excellent service

We enjoyed eating at Bottega Valencia. The food was great and tasted authentically Italian. Even the after dinner espresso was delicious. But the service was even better. Every employee in the restaurant was attentive and helpful. Our waiter was outstanding —he knew just when to be of service. On our way out, at least 5 employees thanked us for dining there. We felt appreciated and catered to. Hope to return soon.

Their soups are a hidden gem — rich and comforting.

Excellent choice of wines and homemade pastas! Wonderful atmosphere with windows open and a nice breeze coming in. The hospitality was top notch! Great restaurant for a date!

Only come here if you want to feel like you’re part of the most beautiful, Italian family who serves the best food. Service is wonderful, the menu is on-point, the quality…unmatched. Come for a drink, stay for dinner, leave as Family. I love everyone who works here, but if you’re lucky, Gianluca is your server. 💝

Bottega is a cozy Italian spot with a nice atmosphere. It wasn’t too crowded when we went, and the service was quick and friendly. We ordered the fried calamari, Margherita pizza, and fettuccine with chicken.
The food was good — you can tell they make everything in-house, including the pasta, which is always a plus. The calamari was especially good and came with some fried veggies, which was a nice touch. They also served fresh focaccia bread while we waited.
That said, the flavors were a bit on the bland side overall — not bad, just lacking a little punch. It’s not the most mind-blowing Italian food I’ve had, but it’s solid and not overly expensive. A good option if you’re in the area and craving Italian.

Gianluca is the best server. He’s always there when you need him. And the kindest of all. Everyone here is above standard! I’m always here when i come back into town. Thank you bottega team!!!

Had late dinner with a group of 5- food and service was excellent! The pizza was light and flavorful, spaghetti and homemade meatballs tasty with sauce, and spinach salad just the right touch of dressing. The server was kind enough to pull up an extra chair for our handbags. Highly recommend!

It’s a very cozy and cute atmosphere . I got fish dish. Probably wouldn’t comeback from it. very mediocre in terms of the taste.
Visiting family in SF from St. Louis and has some of the best authentic Italian food. We loved the calamari, burrata, shrimp scampi apps. And loved the pepperoni sausage pizza, various build your own pastas. The service and ambiance were also wonderful. I’ll be back in the future!
1. They were salty. Calamari should have no salt added -- ever. It ruins the squid flavor.
2. The "calamari" were actually zucchini and potatoes as much as squid. This is as surprising as it is disappointing. "Calamari" has a meaning; it doesn't include vegetables.
3. The rest was OK, very good in general.

It was great overall service was a little slow but I think it was just because it was so busy today, so I understand. The FOOD however was soooooo good. I had so muchhhhhh. I ordered a rigatoni with chicken Alfredo soooooo good. So glad I stopped by.

Best chicken parm with pink sauce I’ve ever had in my entire life. If this was my last meal I’d die happy
