Comfort Food

Everyone has their comfort foods, whether it be chicken and potatoes, a dish of pasta, or a classic burger with a side of cheese fries. We all have that one type of food that we go to when we're, upset, angry, lazy, or just in the mood to just chew.

But what if you’re not in the mood to cook? How about an Italian restaurant with a menu that changes daily? At La Bottega of Farmingdale, we are dedicated to keeping a varied menu using only the freshest ingredients.

When it comes to guilty pleasures, what brings us more pleasure than a cheesy slice of pizza? And let's be honest, for most of us, pizza is the ultimate comfort food! All of our food is preservative-free and made fresh daily. Our menu offers a variety of hot dishes, salads, soups, classic paninis, and of course, pizza. It is our commitment at La Bottega of Farmingdale to serve you truly authentic Italian food.

Another great comfort food for when you’re feeling under the weather is a bowl of hot soup to help free us from the chills of our season colds. What brings more joy than soup and crackers when sick? Here are some of the soups that we found to be unforgettable ones: traditional Italian soups such as the Minestrone Lenticchia (which is made with lentils), Zuppa di Pollo, an Italian chicken soup with pasta and cheese, or tortellini in brodo, a stuffed pasta in broth. We also offer countless classics, such as crème of broccoli or vegetable chicken noodle soup, for those more choosy or less exotic.

Even if you are not sick, a cup of soup and a panini can only make you feel better! Paninis have always been a huge part of Italian cuisine and is a great comfort food due the many recipes incorporating different flavors and textures. La Bottega of Farmingdale has a variety of panini’s to choose from, and is just one of the many reasons to come on down and give our authentic Italian cuisine a shot!
