Bottega

  • Restaurant
  • Fine dining

Bottega has been a favourite among theatre-goers, wine-lovers and long-lunchers since 2002. A cosy restaurant with stylish leather booths giving it a New York feel, it's perfect for a romantic evening, a quick pre-theatre dinner, a long lunch or late supper.

Bottega’s reputation is based on its seasonal menu and extensive wine list. Dusty Treweek, formerly of Comme and Stokehouse, leads the kitchen team, using the highest quality ingredients across the entire menu. Sommelier Ben Knight’s quirky wine list has an emphasis on regional Australian wines and an extensive selection of imported wines, specialising in Italian varieties.

Situated in the heart of Melbourne’s entertainment district and catering for every diner – from business lunches, group celebrations or intimate dinners for two, Bottega also takes functions seriously with dedicated menus and private rooms catering for intimate dinners, or parties up to 60 guests.
