Who needs just 1 waiter/waitress? Why not have 3 plus a manager! Outstanding service, flavours to die for and really reasonable prices. Best place for a sneaky mid-week dinner.
Excellent food and even better whiskey!
Great staff too, owner runs a tight ship... 🥃
Ordered the Oysters, Calamari to start. The Oysters came with a delicious stand out Salsa and were delicious. Mains were really tasty despite being served and charged for the wrong Veal. All in all would go back again and hope for slightly better service.
Such an amazing little place. Has a great area outside so your dog can join you for lunch. Their Italian salad and pasta was just incredible. Staff very friendly. Love this cafe!
Bottega is always a favorite. i decided to go with my partner and i wish i had taken more photos. We had Springbok Carpaccio and Mussels for starters. We really enjoyed our starters so much so that my partner used the same sauce for his King Prawns. Lovely restaurant overall and amazing service
Had an amazing dinner here last night. We had the crab pasta, and prawn pasta- both divine! Great vibe, awesome food, great service - will be back - not just for the food ... but to try out some of the whiskeys- have never seen such a wide selection.
Great service... Great menu... Great Food!!!
What more do you want?
The food is absolute quality and quantity for what you pay.
But I don’t think they understand what poached eggs really are.
What an amazing experience. Fantastic food, a good wine list and the most unbelievable waitress I have ever had. I highly recommend this restaurant
Perfect experience. Unsure on what to eat, I eventually chose Tortellini with peas, ham and asparagus in a creamy sauce. Exceptionally tasty and the service was fantastic.
Bottega Cafe is a very quaint, little family owned and run restaurant located in the heart of Parkhurst with a fantastic ambience and a massive whiskey collection.
We had delicious fresh Knysna Oysters to start, followed by their Lamb Chops and Scottish Salmon. The chops are prepared in a tasty herb sauce, while the Salmon is coated in a sesame seed crust. You have a choice of either chips, grilled vegetables, salad or mash as a side dish to accompany your main. The food is outstanding, and so is the services.
Ambience is buzzing, but in a good way. Love the layout and decor as well.
Staff and service was well in sync.
Food was excellent. In short a pleasant experience and I will definitely visit again.
Cosy and authentic. Fantastic food - can’t ask for anything better to warm your soul on a cold winters night out. Service is fabulous. Wonderful wine and whiskey selection.
My favourite pasta in the world in the most authentic café in all of South Africa. The wine and Whiskey selection is outstanding. Service is casual yet efficient. Highly recommend this place. (Please don’t go tonight… I need a table).
Amazing pasta. Best seafood pasta ever had. Zucchini fries also a treat.small cozy restaurant. Massive whiskey selection for sale too.
Awesome little spot in Parkhurst. Food was absolutely delicious! Service was impeccable. Manager and owner checked on us without intruding. And table service overall was excellent from explanation of the specials to the clearing.
Amazing whisky collection, with even better food. Owner is very knowledgeable. Was a great experience.
We had our whisky tasting night there as they hosted. I was pleasantly surprised by their whisky collection. I also enjoyed my pasta there so will definitely go again!
A very excellent burger for lunch. Good sized portion and perfectly cooked. Staff were friendly, and the place has a relaxed neighbourhood feel about it. Various good choices on the menu also.
Fantastic cocktails and great local place in Parkhurst. They have a great pasta menu and if you feel like veal this is the place to have it. I also love their ribs as an option.
Wonderful , cozy spot , the owner Sav is a gracious host , very knowledgeable on whisky, service and food are top notch always a favourite of the whiskybarrel gents
Great food and lots of whisky 😀
My absolute favourite restaurant for pasta and steak. The restaurant is small lending itself to a cosy atmosphere. The staff are long term staff who know their customers well, the service is excellent and they are just incredibly lovely people. If you're a whisky drinker it is a must because of the incredible whisky selection. Love this place!
