Bottega Montreal

When the moon hits your eye, like a big pizza pie that’s – Bottega. The fast paced up and coming world of Napoli has been brought to Montreal in the form of Napoli’s pride: pizza. At Bottega you won’t find any thick crusted, over topped pies. What you will find is pizza the way it was meant to taste – wood oven baked, thinly crusted, perfectly topped, and carefully constructed.

The recipe for success is simple. For one little slice of heaven take Chef Fabrizzio Covone, send him to Napoli to study pizza-making techniques for two years, throw in an imported stone oven, and choose a quiet street in Little Italy in order to concoct a perfectly blended creation. Although the pizzas are the main attraction at Bottega, don’t skimp on the appetizers. Eggplant cooked to perfection and warm, spicy, Italian olives are just the beginning. In addition, who can resist the “dolce” with a selection such as home made panna cotta, bite sized cannolli, and tiramisu done right? You won’t find any ingredients from a box inside of this restaurant so don’t expect any photos on the menu, or flip-top dessert cards resting on the table.
