Our wedding at Bottino was everything we hoped for and more—truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish.
From our first meeting with Devon and through follow up planning with Devon, Sydney and Danny (all are amazing) we felt extremely taken care of. Communication throughout the process with all the staff and on the day of the wedding was fantastic and all our questions received prompt replies. No detail was too small for attention.
Our ceremony was at the venue as well in the beautiful outdoor space. We had about 60 guests and almost every single one complimented the venue. From the ambience to the service and overall flow. The food in particular was fine dining at its best and drew raves all around.
It was always a dream to have a New York City wedding and Bottino enabled us to do that in a way that was beyond our dreams.
We have been back to celebrate Valentine's Day and to reminisce about our wedding day. Bottino will always be a special place for us!
Absolutely loved my experience at Bottino! The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed, perfect for a modern Italian dining experience. The highlight of the night was the seared filet of branzino—it was cooked to perfection, incredibly fresh, and full of flavor. Every detail, from the presentation to the service, felt thoughtful and elevated. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable meal in NYC!

My experience was absolutely fabulous. I’m really glad I got try Bottino on a quiet night. I decided to sit in the window, treated myself to a modern Italian dining experience and people watching. Ambience and energy was very relaxed. The decor is FABULOUS! The staff was very friendly, shout out to Kade. Kade has that “IT” factor when it comes to customer service. I arrived starving and wanted to experience a “chelsea” neighborhood vibe and Bottino delivered! Basically I went with Kade’s recommendations, enjoyed the Prosciutto San Daniele to start… DELISH, Seared Salmon on point… and dessert 🍨 was super rich.
My favorite part about this experience was another local NY’er ended up sitting in the window beside me, we ended up chatting the entire time and will make a return visit for another experience.

Bottino is a true Chelsea gem! We’ve been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. The house made pastas were perfectly al dente, the fresh seafood dishes bursting with flavor, and the seasonal ingredients really shine. The year round garden patio is magical cozy, romantic, and feels like an escape from the city.
Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming, just like real Tuscan hospitality. Highly recommend for date night, celebrations, or just a delicious Italian meal. We’ll be back again soon! Mike.

Maybe due to sitting next to the bar, it is very noisy, the ambiance doesn’t match the price of the food. The plating is elegant and the taste is standard. It is very pricy considering the food and the setting.
