You would be hard pressed to find a better atmosphere, more delicious pasta, or a more well crafted cocktail anywhere else in Astoria. Combine that with the outstanding service everyone there provides, and you have yourself a hidden gem in Botte Bar. One of my wife and I favorite restaurants and one we come back to again and again. Now that they are opening a location on Ditmars even closer to us, we will most definitely be enjoying the intimate atmosphere even more frequently! We hope you will too!
We live in the neighborhood and had been meaning to try this place and unfortunately were disappointed. We sat at the bar and the bartender was super friendly. He was from a different location just helping out for the night but was so nice.
However, they were out of prosciutto which my boyfriend really wanted, the pasta 100% was not homemade (which is fine but don’t advertise that), my sparkling rose was flat (as was my boyfriends aperol spritz), the chocolate cake was cold on the middle, and the restaurant smelled kind of gross I couldn’t put my finger on it.
The atmosphere was really nice other than the smell.

I don’t usually write reviews but this was the worst experience I’ve had with food. We ordered this place for delivery and ahe Alfredo came with 0 sauce and questionably smelly chicken. I couldn’t bring myself to even try the chicken it smelled so bad. The cacio Pepe had pieces of plastic in it and mold as well
Ordered delivery. Came late. Never ordering from this place again. The portions are a rip-off. It’s way over priced. There are much better options in Astoria for the cost. And better taste as well. Adding photos of how outrageous it was. A To-go bowl of pasta that cost $30 and our garlic bread that was $8. Both were a joke.
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.
Went here for light dinner.
The service was great. very tentative and friendly. The drinks were good. The food was ok
Meatballs were dry, disappointing. Mussels was good
Fettuccine Pesto was ok, not memorable.
Chicken Parm was decent.
Would go back to try other dishes.

Came here on a Friday night with my friend to have dinner and a couple drinks, we sat at the bar and the food was delicious. The service was impeccable and the drinks were amazing, definitely my new fav place. We were served by the bartender David who prepared for us some of his special drinks, the espresso martini was the best I ever had in my entire life, Salvatore was the server who helped us through the entire night, both of them so nice and polite
Cute place with really friendly staff. The service is impeccable. My friend and I tried to limoncello spritzer which was a good but strong cocktail. One thing to note is that Suppli is similar to Arancini if that's what you're looking for as an appetizer. The pasta was portioned well and delicious, I definitely had a food baby after eating here.
