Bottega Restaurant is a noted fine restaurant located in the Bottega Favorita building at 2240 Highland Avenue in Birmingham's Highland Park neighborhood. It is the second restaurant opened by nationally-renowned chef Frank Stitt, who opened his flagship Highlands Bar and Grill in 1982. Bottega's menu, which is updated daily, features Italian-inspired dishes made with fresh, regionally-sourced and imported Italian ingredients.
In 1990 the formal restaurant was joined by a more casual Bottega Café in the same building.
Bottega's dining room was closed in March 2020 at the onset of the COVID pandemic, and gradually reopened at a reduced capacity, supplemented with outdoor tables sheltered by tents, and by greater reliance on take-out meals.
In March 2022 the restaurant closed again for an interior renovation. A large banquette divider was removed to open up the space, a glass railing was replaced with wrought iron, and the finishes brightened. Overall seating capacity was reduced slightly. A new menu was introduced when the dining room reopened in December.
