I was looking for an Italian restaurant for lunch and La Bottega kept popping up in my search. The space is small for dining, four or five tables. People seem to do more takeout. The staff is friendly. I had a (greek) salad it was a nice size for lunch. The bread wasn't italian it was sliced ciabatta toasted by the panini press, it was different.... Italian bread is still #1 in my book. It was a pleasant experience.
