Small and popular place. Very good food. They don't serve beer, wine, or liquor. Very popular with locals so you know you can't go wrong.

disappointed by my carbonara - it was very heavy and cream-based, which was unexpected. amazing atmosphere and great prices. I've had better experiences here in the past, so might give it another shot.

Chicken piccata, which was the special that day, was not very good. It was very salty and the chicken appeared to be clumps of chicken, unbreaded. It was not visually appealing either. Chicken Parmesan was amazing! Chicken breaded and sauce delicious. Disappointed that an Italian Restaurant does not offer wine.

We ordered angel hair & shrimp and this was a mistake. The pasta was in a pool of oil and the bread was stale. We suspect the great reviews are based on the sandwiches.

This is such a little gem in a random neighborhood that serves actually delicious Italian.
You will notice that they are always busy there, which is a good sign.
The friday special: Parmigiana Di Melanzane, is probably one of the best eggplant dish I've ever had. Crispy skin, with very tender fresh and yet the layers stick together, with smoky mildly sweet and slightly bitter taste that somehow just worked. This eggplant is not a dish you can make on the spot. Probably it was slow cooked and prepared over a long time to get all those elements together.
The service was excellent, charming older guys taking your order and very knowledgeable about the menu.
The prices are extremely reasonable, in fact I think they're undercharging.
The place itself is small and somewhat cramped, which is a double edged sword. On one hand it gives you that rustic mom-and-pop old school Italian restaurant feel, on the other hand... Well it's cramped. And can be difficult to get a table during peak hours.
There is a pay-parking lot a couple of blocks away for those who drive.
Great Italian dining place in Brookline. The small but tidy dining room exsude a true Trattoria atmosphere. The pasta are delicious with a large variety of sauces. One might deplore that the bruscetta is not the best ever, although the tiramisu more than makes up for it. Price range is truly reasonable.

Amazing Italian food!!! The fettuccine was divine, and the spaghetti was to die for! Mind you, this is someone from Texas, so my bar isn't as high as maybe someone from New York, but this place was amazing! The staff were so friendly and the service was so fast! A small place offering a variety of italian dishes and deserts! Also recommend the turkey club sandwich!

Bottega di Capri was well worth the price. I got the pesto Alfredo and the sauce was creamy and portion sizes were plentiful. My friend got spaghetti and meatballs and the meatballs had an authentic flavor and weren’t just mystery meat blended together. Especially for the price I feel like u can’t beat that for pasta. Overall great spot to just hang out and amazing service to come with it!

Ummm I ordered lobster scampi and it came with ravioli in it??? I don’t know if someone working here has no idea what scampi is or if their description of the dish is a lie but I expected NOODLES! I hate ravioli, the sauce is delicious but there’s only 4 ravioli in here so the ratio of sauce to pasta is way off and I was looking forward to twirling noodles with my fork but instead I am cutting up ravioli I don’t even like. Disappointing

It was the most delicious salad and pasta I had in the US. The quantity of food, quality of seafood, price, and service are all excellent.
