Bottega Pizzeria

Bottega is a neighborhood Neapolitan pizzeria on Rue Saint-Zotique Est, where the expectation is that the food does the talking. It operates in the distinct Montreal tradition of Italian-adjacent, ingredient-focused restaurants, using an imported wood-fired oven to produce classic pizzas like the Margherita and Marinara. The room is warmly rustic, attracting a loyal local crowd for unhurried evening meals. This is cooking grounded in Italian technique, shaped by the city's broader French culinary discipline and a focus on Quebec's agricultural products.
