Review:

Bottega Louie is a perennial favorite restaurant and patisserie in Los Angeles' downtown district, opened in 2009 by David Cooley and Kevin McKellar. Diners can enjoy full menus of elegant Italian-style bistro fare throughout the day, including famed giant Neapolitan-style pizzas that are favorites among the tourist crowd. Pizza selections highlight classics like margherita, burrata, and Calabrese pizzas, prepared with fresh twists via ingredient infusions like fennel confit, pickled Fresno chiles, and black truffle mushroom pate. Comforting pasta entrees like tagliatelle Bolognese, clams linguine, and pork ragu lasagna are also on the menu, along with land and sea options like steak frites and chicken Milanese. An extensive European wine menu is available by the glass or by the bottle, complemented by a selection of draft beers, iced teas, and flavored Italian sodas.
