Master Critic Review

Bottino 7.7
Chelsea
A Tuscan-leaning West Chelsea staple with a garden patio that anchors the experience as much as the food. Pastas and grilled meats are the move, and while the room can feel scene-y, the cooking remains focused on rustic comfort.
Must-Try Dishes: Pappardelle bolognese, Grilled branzino, Ricotta-based crostini
