CIAO! WE’RE A FAMILY-RUN ITALIAN RESTAURANT & SHOP IN THE HEART OF MARGATE.

Bottega Caruso shares the foods, recipes and wines from Simona’s village Foglianise, a small village an hour away from Naples in Benevento Province, Campania.

We import artisanal produce such as preserved tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, natural wines and heritage grain flour from our friends & family, and together with the wonderful fresh produce we have here and around Margate, hope to share a little of the Italian south.

“Bottega Caruso serves possibly some of the best Italian food in modern Britain”
