La Bottega
Situated inside the Maritime Hotel in NYC's fashionable Chelsea district, La Bottega is a spunky Italian trattoria that plays off the hotel's whimsical, nautical theme. The crowd here is fun and lively, the food is fresh, and the cocktails delicious. The garden patio is open and spacious, complete with floating atmospheric lights, lots of tables and plenty of umbrellas to shade you on those sunnier days. Come here and enjoy some light antipasti, too many glasses of wine and maybe even make some new friends.
