Description: La Bottega Bistroteka is a modern Italian bistro in the heart of Prague, on the busy Dlouhá Street. Chef Riccardo Lucque opened it with Ondřej Rákosník in 2014, and it has settled nicely into the neighborhood. It is an ideal place for a long, relaxing breakfast, or a quick lunch chosen from the daily specials prepared by chef Martin Dvořák and his team. Afternoons are perfect for a visit to enjoy a traditional Italian aperitivo, consisting of a plate of Italian delicacies and wine. You can also enjoy a great evening with friends, with a menu featuring fresh fish and seafood, aged meats, and a variety of selections from the à la carte menu.

When staying in big cities, I opt to try every possible option, but for this restaurant I had to come twice in a row because it was really good.
I had breakfast both times, the waiter was very friendly, the place was very cozy, there were so many options in the menu including healthy ones.
I highly Recommend this place to anyone who is visiting Prague.

We chose this restaurant because it was very close to our hotel and popped up on the TripAdvisor "near us" feature as highly rated. It is deserving of the high rating. We ate there twice and enjoyed both meals. The wines were pleasant; the choices on the rather limited menu were diverse and well prepared. I tried their grilled octopus, not a commonplace item for me, and was delighted.
The servers, different on the two occasions, were very pleasant and attentive; spoke great English...and about died laughing when we tried to say thank you in Czech. I guess they don't get that often.

Dear Wmay,

I laughed too when I read about your efforts of speaking Czech! This is so nice! I am Italian and I share the same feeling that you experienced... I try but Czech language is not very easy!
I am very happy to read that you visited al Bottega Bistroteka twice and that you enjoyed both meals. We keep our menu short to have the chance to offer daily special that change with the season and the offer of the market. We only cook using fresh ingredients and we mostly import them directly from Italy or other European fish markets. We also select and distribute only the best organic wines from small cellars that pour only wine and love into their bottles.

We hope to have the pleasure to welcome you for the third time soon and we wish you a wonderful stay in Prague!

Arrivederci!

Looked for a good place to eat and found this place close to our hotel. From the outside it looks like a cafe but the food is very well done. We had swordfish ceviche for an app - excellent. Our dinner dishes were varied from pasta carbonara, green pea risotto to grilled octopus. Everyone enjoyed them. Prices were reasonable and the ambiance is quite nice inside. Can't go wrong here.

Great service, quality food, quality steaks perfectly cooked! Great selection of wine! Amazing food!! A little pricey but that depends on your choices. I would definitely go there again to try the pasta. Everything was perfect!!! For a restaurant of this quality the deserts should be made the same day.
