Bottega Louie anchors downtown’s Grand Avenue corridor with a sprawling Italian restaurant, gourmet market, and patisserie under one roof. Guests come for wood-fired pizzas, pastas, and brunch plates backed by a constantly humming open kitchen and bar. The bright, high-ceilinged space feels more like a bustling European food hall than a quiet neighborhood trattoria.
Must-Try Dishes:
Margherita pizza, House-made pastas (ask for daily standouts), Macarons and pastries from the patisserie counter
What makes it special: A Downtown Italian powerhouse with a full patisserie that keeps families happy.
