    This is a wonderful place for a bottle of women and a nice Italian meal. I ordered Ossobucco and my only issue was that for over $40 there was not very much veal in the dish. All else was bey good but I missed a good serving of veal.

    Bottaio consistently provides a quality experience including their welcoming attitude, professional and friendly servers, delicious food with generous portions and good drink choices. The value is outstanding. Besides being a great choice for a Saturday night out with friends, we also enjoy going for a weekday lunch or dinner. A gem in Libertyville!

    I was disappointed. Seats are uncomfortable. Dark and difficult to read menu. Soup came out room temperature. Pasta was not very flavorful. The mussels with spicy sause was not spicy. I have been here before but the last 2 times it has disappointed. I am hoping it's just 2 off nights.

    Had the whitefish margarita dish. Was awesome! It was a special but all the food was very well done. We eat here about twice a month.

    Great overall experience. Our waiter Kyle was exceptional per usual. The food was spot on. My only complaint is how much the prices have increased recently. Have been going there for over 10 years. Always a good meal but will definitely visit less frequently due to the cost. Over $200 for 2 is just a bit much. Other than that I’d highly recommend it.
