About Botte Bar

Botte Bar in Astoria is a lively and social place, perfect for drinks and mingling. The restaurant offers a warm and welcoming service, creating a bustling and joyful atmosphere. It is especially popular with Italian food lovers, serving dishes like red peppers bruschetta, truffle ravioli, and cod fish cooked in parchment paper. The food is often praised for its quality, with lasagna described as "on the next level," and cocktails complementing the meals very well, including a "Made you blush" drink with raspberry jolly rancher flavor. The bar is known for its authentic Italian vibe, thanks to the owner and bartender, both from Italy, who craft everything with care. Customers have described the food as always great, the bartenders and staff as friendly, and the cocktail menu as wonderful and creative. The outdoor seating is chic, and the restaurant often has a fun movie playing on the small screen, adding to the cozy, old-school Italian feel. The atmosphere remains intimate and sophisticated, with a quirky touch like a 13-inch tube TV playing Star Wars on VHS. Visitors also enjoy the pasta, especially the tagliatelle bolognese, which is excellent with a sauce that reminds some of homemade recipes. The happy hour offers great selections, including oysters, meatballs, Cacio & Pepe fries, and gluten-free margarita pizza, all at reasonable prices. The bartenders are attentive, making the experience even better. The restaurant is small, so reservations or arriving early is recommended to fully enjoy the charming ambiance.
