Bottega Angelina

My sweet mama-in-love and I love to come here for a quiet early week dinner. Sitting at the bar is so comfortable. The lighting and decor feels so uptown. Ocean view...lovely atmosphere. We had the prosciutto and melon, Cesar salad and Gluten reduced pasta with sea food. SO good. The crew in the open kitchen deciding to douse the place in some kind of cleaning chemicals almost ruined this visit. I asked the server to please ask them to stop immediately so that we could finish our meal. It was Monday around 8p. Other than this...I highly recommend this restaurant. They appear to have worked out the new restaurant kinks. Its not inexpensive but nothing is anymore.

Great view from outdoor patio. Gluten friendly pizza is excellent if you are only gluten intolerant vs celiac. Tastes close to the real deal. Good Caeser salad but not the best in SoCal...that honor goes to #Pizzana in WeHo. Octopus appetizer is excellent and filling so a great choice if you prefer a small plate to a full entree. It is delivered with a lovely presentation involving a smoke cloche and hot chili oil...So yummy! Best octopus I have had since Portugal.
