Welcome to La Bottega
of Garden City South

"Home Of The Perfect Panini"

Established in 2003, by Giuseppe & Marisa Ruta, this location is the original La Bottega.  They have since been popping up all over Long Island and now branching out to Queens and beyond. 

You may have heard of panini before, but you have not truly experienced a panino until you had one at La Bottega.  Here at Garden City South we serve a large variety of panini, salads and a weekly changing menu.  In addition to a few other locations, our La Bottega also offers Gluten Free menu items.  Our sister restaurant Caffe Barocco, located next door to
La Bottega, specializes in gourmet breakfast, sweet & savory crepês, tapas and the art of dessert and gelato making.  

La Bottega & Caffe Barocco also have the best accompaniments to complete your dining experience.  Our wine menu exibits an extensive collection of imported wines from various countries and regions.  The newest addition is a special section featuring a wide variety of micro handcrafted beer from around the world.  

We hope to see you soon! Grazie!
