   It was our very first time visiting Botega and I’m glad that we picked the right place to celebrate my fiancée birthday, they really took care of us and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. They also had one of the best birthday celebration. I couldn’t ask more. Will definitely come back for date night m.

   Came here for our last night in Napa for my birthday and Bottega did not disappoint. This restaurant was highly recommended to me by multiple people who had visited Napa prior. Our server was attentive, the food was delicious, and I appreciated that the staff took notice that it was my birthday and went above and beyond for me. We can't stop raving about our experience! Definitely a must-try if you're in the Napa area.

   Amazing from start to finish, as always. Been ordering the calamari for many years and it’s the only restaurant that makes fried/breaded calamari with rice flour, making it a GF option, but also the best crunch/crispiness of any calamari you’ve ever had. I hope they don’t ever take this off the menu. Pasta is outstanding. Service is elegant, attentive, never intrusive into a conversation, and genuinely friendly. Still my favorite restaurant after all these years.

   The service was absolutely terrible. We waited for 30 minutes after our 8pm reservation to be seated. The waiter forgot one of our dishes and never came back to check on us throughout our meal. Overall the food was mid. There’s definitely other restaurants I would try or go back to before returning to Bottega.

   would have been more appropriate for the server to announce the price of the daily crudo, and at $35 for 4 pieces of machine thin-sliced hamachi, it was more than ridiculous. Why? Because they serve the four small pieces on a huge block of frozen salt, but fail to tell the guest that leaving the fish on the salt for more than 15 seconds makes for nearly an inedible appetizer. What makes it even more ridiculous, they do not even accompany the serving with a small plate upon which to place the salt-laden crudo.....I had to put it on the table cloth so the salt could be absorbed. And then the restaurant needs to instruct servers about over-pouring wine (unless it is restaurant policy to try to have customers order more wine than is necessary to accompany a meal). Our beautiful chardonnay had been presented and discussed with a sommelier, who then properly poured our portions. Within 60 seconds the server appeared with our bottle in hand and immediately overpoured my wife's glass which already had the sommelier's portion nearly untouched, pouring without even asking, and nearly ignoring my comment asking her to stop pouring. What an unprofessional move that was for a restaurant of this stature.

   Service was great wait staff and server was attentive and friendly. However it took some time for us to receive our dinner. The food was ok, very bland no original flavor. I had the seafood pasta with crab meat. The crabmeat didn’t seem too fresh taste like it came out of a can. The ambience was nice however there was a large group seated next Toni’s and they were very loud.
