“Casa e Bottega: un locale allegro e bellissimo, l’arredamento è un’incredibile fusione di meraviglie. La cucina è in prevalenza ligure, sapida e di classe. Ottime le materie prime, ottimi gli abbinamenti, ottime le cotture”
Giorgio R. – Milano
“...il sapore indimenticabile di una cucina semplice ma allo stesso tempo ricercata, il particolare che rende unica l’esperienza del gusto”

“…perché Dolceacqua e i suoi dintorni sono bellissimi in sé, ma avere come corollario un luogo speciale come Casa e Bottega la rende il top!”

Excellent Ligurian cuisine in a very warm setting (special mention for the chestnut honey ricotta ice cream)!Our server also gave us good advice on the rest of our trip, all in French. Really good experience
Excellent food, original presentation, very welcoming place and super friendly staff.. Thank you! We will definitely be back..
Fantastic Experience!Casa e Bottega in Dolceacqua is a gem! Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and incredible food. The Ligurian dishes are fresh and full of flavor—don’t miss the homemade pasta and local wines. Everything is beautifully presented, and you can feel the passion in every bite. A must-visit if you're in the area!
Lovely restaurant in a beautiful location. Having lunch with the castle reflected in the river is priceless. But the menu is even better. Spaghetti with clams with basil, a real "discovery", delicious!Friendly and helpful staff.The interior is unique, furnished with care and attention to detail, in a mix of modern and vintage that makes the environment warm and welcoming.
Excellent food, remarkable wine list, courtesy and empathy from all the staff.Compliments
Very good restaurant in DolceacquaA short visit to the village is essential before or after lunchThe dishes are delicious, sophisticated and plentiful with a quality choiceThe wine by the pitcher is good and not expensiveAffordable menusTo do without hesitation!!
The welcome was excellent and the location was really nice, with good service. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to expectations.I chose the fish menu: the brandacujun was good, but unfortunately it contained a large bone.The pasta with clams left us perplexed: for several minutes we wondered where the strong smell of rosemary was coming from, thinking it was the cut ordered by my friend. Only after asking the waitress, we discovered that rosemary is used in the sautéed pasta, and parsley is replaced with basil because the chef is Genoese. None of these ingredients were listed on the menu.We concluded with an eggnog ice cream accompanied by an incredibly savory cake. After comparing several recipes and asking the wait staff, we confirmed that this should not have been the case.Finally, in the bill we found the bottle of wine at a higher price than that shown on the card. When we pointed this out, the owner didn't apologize, simply saying, "You were right to point that out."A real shame, because the place has potential, but the attention to detail in food and management should be more.
A gem you absolutely must try if you are in Dolceacqua, everything is really excellent from the bread to the coffee, a truly refined presentation, a pleasure for the eyes. The place has attention to detail, with designer objects and antiques, very kind staff, well-trained and knowledgeable in languages. Prices more than fair for the quality and quantity, really excellent.
We discovered this restaurant before visiting the magnificent village of Dolceacqua, and what a nice surprise!The setting is charming, the food delicious, and the service impeccable.Special mention to the waiter, very attentive and friendly.
This restaurant is located in the enchanting Dolceacqua. The environment, service and food are excellent; Valeria the owner and her son Marco constitute and compose an excellent team. Their dishes are tasty and plentiful, go there! You won't regret it.
after spaghetti with clams here - you are ruined forever! 😉 We also come to eat here from Milan. highly recommended! 🤍
All 5 stars. The environment is very beautiful and particular: furnished in a refined, modern, welcoming way, and which aims to amaze without being heavy. Very pleasant!The menu offers meat and fish with refined proposals and high quality local products.The wine list is excellent.Attentive and kind staff.Quality, right price.
Very nice experience after visiting the castle.Excellent welcome, very professional staff.Refined cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere.Well done !
Such an amazing place. Great atmosphere and service by the fab service team. Food was exceptional. Best meat I have had ever.
Went again after a few years - and all was perfect - from reservation via warm welcome, wine and food.We came for the spaghetti vongole and enjoyed all other dishes.You cannot go wrong anything here, I would say.Looking forward to the next visit, hopefully soon.
The pasta was perfect. Traditional cuisine. The service is friendly and good. I recommend ✌🏼😊
A Sunday dedicated to food experiences, a unique experience at Casa e Bottega. Enchanting location, everywhere you look you encounter modern objects alternating with vintage objects, the atmosphere is as familiar as the service but at the same time very professional and attentive. The food was very good, the presentation of the dishes was excellent, what can I say... a culinary experience worth trying. Excellent quality/price ratio. We will definitely be back.TOP Staff!!!!!Joanna
Great restaurant that masters its subject.Top service and very good food!I recommend.
Great discovery in Dolceaqua. You might expect to have a tourist restaurant, but think again, it's a very good Italian restaurant. The dishes are very generous. And it’s nice to eat outside as well as inside.Thank you for the welcome in French!
This is a restaurant where the food comes out hot and tastes even better. It was fun to see the spaghetti vongole served in a pot. Although the price is high, we ordered one vongole dish for lunch and two people ate it to their hearts' content. The service person is pleasant and speaks French and English well.
It might seem like a tourist restaurant but the quality is excellent. The staff also speaks French and they are all super friendly. Really very good dishes. Prices higher than average but the quality justifies it. Great variety of wines and even the cheaper wines are excellent.I recommend trying the local dessert, the stroscia with ice cream, as it is divine. You can take this delicacy home if you ask the staff. I will definitely be back
Everything was delicious and the guys were very well prepared. My wife and I had a small unexpected event during the evening and the owner found a solution for us and immediately put it right. Thank you guys from Casa e bottega, we will be sure to come back to visit you. You guys are cool
Very good restaurant on Dolceacqua. Very friendly and fast service, excellent food.
This place fully deserves the 5 stars in every respect. Let's start from the beautiful room, with the bathrooms that are created from the stone foundations of the historic houses above, to move on to the indoor area, elegant with furnishing objects that seem to be placed randomly but which in reality make the environment absolutely comfortable . The service of this place is perfect, here I found exactly what I'm looking for in a restaurant, with attentive service, with friendly but not intrusive staff, compliments to all the staff. Absolutely delicious food, above my expectations. The prices for all this are fair in my opinion. To conclude, I think this is an excellent restaurant for everything it offers. I really recommend it very much!
Excellent location with indoor and outdoor seating space. Delicious food and very friendly service. A wonderful selection of great wine at very fair value for money is listed on the wine menu. Guests need to park the car in one of the public parking lots with a limited number of parking space.
A place to always return to...excellent cuisine, very good and friendly service...in short, a big OK...for everything
Exceptional, recommended by the backpacker guide and approved.The best full breakfast to get in shape before a day of sightseeing walking.Cozy and rural atmosphere, excellent fresh, quality products.
Restaurant with a small menu, a guarantee of freshness and quality, as well as 3 menus for all budgets. We got it for less than €35 per person for an aperitif, main course and dessert. The products are local and it shows. All the staff are very welcoming and speak impeccable French or English for those who do not speak Italian. Not to spoil anything, the outdoor terrace has a beautiful view of the old town.Reservations recommended or arrive before midday for lunch.
I liked it a lot. The delicious food and the spectacular view: a medieval bridge, an old castle, churches... all together! I really enjoyed this day and this restaurant. I hope to return.
Informal service and always attentive to customer needs. Excellent food, I will definitely return. Excellent staff
The restaurant serves excellent Ligurian cuisine, including those from the hinterland. Exceptional red rabbit. Good value for money.
Refused at 1 p.m. when several customers were going to finish and vacate the table. We could have at least been offered to wait 15 minutes 😔
Simply wonderful, a point of reference for those looking for REAL Ligurian food. We'll see you again soon.
Warm welcome, succulent cuisine, pleasant decor, an unmissable address!
The best spaghetti with clams I've ever eatenBut the rest is no joke either.Top Service!
One of the best restaurants in the valley.High quality food, very kind staff, honest prices.Every year during the holidays it is now a fixed stop.Highly recommended!!!
Excellent value for money, the vegetarian menu was a revelation, really good dishes never tried! Fast and courteous staff and then in the background the village of dolceacqua... a real gem😊
Restaurant in the square of Dolceacqua. The inside is really cute. The dehor allows you to enjoy the view of the "old" part of the village ... a show. But let's get to the food. There were three of us and we had spaghetti alla chitarra with Ligurian pesto (simple but delicious), brandacujun or a typical dish based on stockfish (excellent) and tonnarelli with anchovies and lemon scent (superlatives). My husband had the rabbit with Dolceacqua rossese sauce, which was also excellent. Honest prices because really excellent quality. Friendly staff and quick to serve. Highly recommended
Great restaurant, we ate very well! Quick, polite and well trained staff. We took a seafood tasting menu consisting of an appetizer (brandacujun), first course and dessert.Everything was excellent! I venture to say that I ate here the best pasta with clams ever. Note on the dessert: banana and chilli ice cream with salted caramel ... a crazy balance of flavors. I will definitely be back! Well done!
Excellent Ligurian cuisine and very kind service. A lovely place for lunch in Dolceacqua when we're picking up our favorite rossese
My tip is, AVOID THIS PLACE. It is simply NOT WORTH THE STRESS.Never have I been so mistreated and humiliated - for absolutely no reason - like I did in this horrid place.My ZERO STAR review isn’t related to the food, as no complaints there, but the service and treatment of the manager/owner Marco was so bad it has left me and my friend speechless for days.
Avoid at all costs!!I have travelled across all continents, visited many cities and countless restaurants, foodie as I am.Never have I been so mistreated and humiliated - for absolutely no reason - like I did in this horrid place.My ZERO STAR review isn’t related to the food, as no complaints there, but the service and treatment of the manager/owner Marco was so bad it has left me and my friend speechless for days.Long story short: as soon as we sat down bread was put on our table, as usual. We asked for a little bit of olive oil, as anyone would, as we browsed the menu. We were told only after we ordered, and also told the restaurant would close in +/- 15 min, so we opted for a quick main and ordered.Again, asked for the olive oil. We were given two drops each, which naturally were soaked up with the first bite. Uncomfortably, we asked for a bit more, as they were clearly being stingy with it and not leaving at the table.We were then met by the most unreal rudeness I’ve ever witnessed in a restaurant. We were told by the son of the owner that we’d been trying to eat bread for free, that we should order a starter if we’re hungry. He went on and on, trying to - for whatever reason- humiliate us, saying we had asked for olive oil six times, etc etc. Excuse me, but why do you serve your customers bread if you’re so unhappy for the customers to eat it? Just bizarre.The rudeness did not stop there and completely spoilt our lunch and day. We could turn to no one, as this place is clearly owned & managed by brutes.Judging by MANY other reviews with similar issues, I’m sure I’ll get a nasty answer from someone in that place. Which I shall not read to not further stress myself.My tip is, AVOID THIS PLACE. It is simply NOT WORTH THE STRESS.Owners: please take a class in customer service.
Had a nice lunch. I had the veal and potatoes stack as in photo. The meat was cooked to perfection and the potatoes too. The staff was engaged and welcoming. Service was quick. But again the quality of the dishes ( there was 6 of us) was excellent
Fabulous food and service. Incredible lunch on the terrace in November!
Best view ever. Amazing service, awesome food, especailly the pasta that were so fresh! Loved every bit of it.
Great food, great view over the river and the village, great service. The ice cream with chestnut honey and the strawberry 🍓 sorbet is to die for. Don't miss to order the potatoes baked in the oven as a side dish! I visited the restaurant after the lockdown and it is even better! Loved every bite!💖👌
An extraordinary dinner at Casa e Bottega, made up of fine cuisine and lovely service in the romantic village of DolceAcqua.
Really great meal at Casa Bottega... All the food was excellent, the portion sizes large(!) and the service was very friendly and helpful. Will be returning again and agai , I foresee.
Love the vibes, very nice cozy arty deco, amazing attentive staff (talking English, Italian, French…) and delicious food. We will definitely come back!
