Review of Bottega

Went here a few weeks back in a big group and had a great experience.

Service was decent, the place is laid out in a refreshing, modern style, and of course, the food was great!
Beautiful chewy, charred Neapolitan style crusts on the pizza is what made the deal for me - you can only get that kind of crust from the heat of a wood fired oven. The crust was the best of any pizza I've had in Beijing. The topping was nicely seasoned, fresh and generous. The Arancini was also lovely and rich, but I only tried these two so I can't comment as to the other dishes. If I had one criticism it would be that the pizza menu is a little conservative - there's no white pizzas on the menu (though I seem to be in the minority of people who actually like them...) and most choices are pizza classics. From a place producing pizza of this quality it would be nice to try something a bit more unusual.

It's a little on the expensive side (around 90-110 for a pizza), but if you're looking for genuinely decent, Neapolitan style Pizzas, this would be my go-to recommendation.
