Beautiful open air patio, excellent service, unusual and traditional dishes that are phenomenal. Parents-in-law said octopus was the best they ever had. My son loved the lasagne. Freshly squeezed juices are always a treat and made from fresh whole fruit, and flan, cotton candy, and chocolate lava cake were hits. Beautifully constructed building with art on the walls. My favorite of the many restaurants we have tried on the biannual visits to this area. Highly recommend.

Ristorante Bottega Privee

Reviewed By 356kenj

My wife & I stopped in for a glass of wine...Amarone and valpolicella. both were good, the Alan was pleasantly chatting about the menu, so we opted for the meat and cheese plate. HOW COOL! Michael, rolls out this antique type specialty slicer; showed us each of the meats and cheeses, explained them and let us select the types we wanted. Really amazing detail and service!. We had more wine, and some puff pastry appetizer, the chef came out to introduce himself and check up on us. We were blown away by the service and the attention to detail. We will be back often :)

Absolutely wonderful tasting homemade pasta and sauces! My wife and I enjoyed the fettuccini alla bolognes and came back two nights later for it again. Daughter had spaguetti al pomodoro and loved it. We shared fresh baked focaccia bread and we had great desserts to end with. Service was spot on and friendly and we ate outside one night and inside the other - both we great! Highly recommend!

I ate here for lunch. We ordered drinks, sandwiches, and dessert. The meal was tasty, but it was more expensive than it should have been. The sandwiches are not very filling and they come with nothing but the sandwich. For three of us, we spent nearly $75. That's way more than a lunch like this should cost.

We took a group of our collaborators for lunch to the Market today. We had coordinated some details beforehand but definitely it was thanks to Priscilla's attention and amazing service that we had such a pleasant experience. The food was delicious, service was great, prompt, and super courteous. Even having a vegan person have her lunch BTO, everything was seamless. This has been a nightmare at other places but most certainly not here. Thanks Priscilla!Dear Adrian,We´re glad that you enjoyed the food and the service of The Market.

Cristian was our waiter and provide us with warm and pleasant set. The food was wonderful. The only request I have is to NOT microwave the bread as they did and to serve real butter in lieu of the artificial butter made with rapeseed oil.
