Botte - Astoria

I had a lovely time sitting at the counter bar at Botte. The bartender was very friendly and attentive. The cocktails were well made and the dinner was delicious! I recommend starting off with the bruschetta.

True Italian food, wonderful service charming atmosphere.

Came here on a Thursday night on a date. Food was great! Started with the Suppli which is similar to an arancini, it was crispy and tasty. I ordered the chicken parmigiana which was great. Tons of cheese and the fillet was thin and crispy (not to mention large) Not served with a ton of pasta, which I like and the sauce was flavorful. I also really enjoyed the blood orange Negroni. Prices were fairly reasonable (aside from their $18 seasonal drinks) ~20-25 per pasta dish. Came out to around $120 for appetizer, two mains and two drinks each. I wanted to try the tiramisu dessert, but I was informed it wasn’t available.

That bartender holds it down, as soon as you walk in you'll know what I'm talking about. Highly recommend.

The chicken parm is amazing. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
