What the community has to say about Bottega Restaurant & Cafe

Information about this business (4)

Open since 1988 in the historic Bottega Favorita building, Bottega dining room presents a warm, sophisticated atmosphere with a classical limestone façade, arched portico, leather banquettes to sink into, lofted seventeen foot ceilings, elegant white marble and a grand staircase leading to a mezzanine level. Italy inspires the cuisine, carefully crafted by linking ingredients from the American...

From OpenTable:

Bottega Restaurant is housed in a historic building on the Southside of Birmingham. We offer diverse regional Italian food in two different settings--the more casual side(with no reservations)is the
Café, where we serve pizza, roast meats and fish from a wood-burning oven along with pasta, sandwiches and salads. The main dining room (reservations recommended) features a more...

Bottega has a multi-faceted personality. The slightly dressy main dining room is balanced by the slightly raucous café, the other half of the building, with its Pompeii red walls, huge brick wood-fired oven, long bar, and communal table, open from 11:00 A.M. to 10:30 P.M., it is hard not to feel festive here. The café's patio is the destination for an aperitivo on a pretty day or evening....

Bottega Cafe Restaurant Review

Bottega Café offers a casual dining option next to the more formal Bottega Restaurant. Turn right through the gate and in good weather, you’ll see one of Birmingham’s favorite outdoor spaces in which to enjoy fine fare. In any weather, diners will take pleasure in the warm terra-cotta-colored room and watching pizzas emerge from the wood-fired oven. Or try the piadine---thin pizzas topped with...

On historic Highland Avenue sits one of Birmingham's favorite places to relax with food and drink. A heavy black iron gate guides the way in front of soaring arched windows at the circa-1926 Bottega Favorita building that houses both…

Housed in the same 1926 Beaux Arts building as Bottega Restaurant, Bottega Café is the less formal of the two, but offers food that is equally tantalizing. Pizzas emerge from a wood-fired oven at the back of the warm terra-cotta-colored room. Or try the piadine---thin pizza topped with a choice of salads then folded over and cut in half so it can be eaten like a sandwich. Menus change daily,...

Editorial Review

Seafood, meat and pastas, including signature three-cheese mac and cheese, are cooked with traditions and ingredients from Italy and North Africa.

We dined last night in the Dining Room, or the formal side, of Bottega last night. We have enjoyed the Cafe side many times and the food there is quite good; however we wanted to finally try the other side. Let me tell you we...

Bottega is always superb in every way - from the ambiance to the service to the food. Frank Stitt would not have it any other way. :-))) Do have their Parmesan souffle to start with - a signature dish. The steak is so tender, the...

This is the Hidden Jewel of Five Points. Hard to find at First, but worth the search. The place is high speed, a little loud in the Cafe side, but the service is excellente! The hostess and server were very helpful and professional. The food...

I have eaten over twenty times at Bottega even before I moved to Birmingham to live. The entire menu is simply a culinary delight. My wife and I once had the chef simply set us up and it was one of the extraordinary culinary experiences...

Refined Italian and Mediterranean fine dining.
Located right next door to Bottega Cafe.

Take Out, Best Value, Italian: More laid-back and casual than big sister Bottega, this café serves contemporary Italian dishes and cuisine from the wood-fired oven and rotisserie grill, with an emphasis on pizzas (either gourmet or traditional), chicken, and beef. Al fresco dining is also available.

Located on Highland Avenue near Five Points South, Café Bottega offers an eclectic menu of mostly Italian dishes, including pizza, in a very stylish setting. The building itself resembles a Roman civic building with faux arch and a decorative concrete facade. It's an Art-Deco style and the furnishings are elegant and tasteful. As the little brother of Bottega Restaurant, the café offers a...
