La Bottega by Carmen Trigueros

La Bottega by Carmen Trigueros is part of the Grove Garden Trilogy of restaurants, situated around a charming court-garden setting at 3540 Main Highway, 
Coconut Grove, including Calamari Italian Restaurant, and Taurus…Another Round, the Grove’s most legendary bar.

It is what the Italians call an enoteca sociale, a relaxing venue where one can experience instant gratification by shopping for, uncorking and enjoy extraordinary wines from boutique vineyards, together with fresh meats and cheeses and other culinary delights. The hallmark of the intimate setting is a state-of-the-industry open kitchen, right on premises, where guests can pull up a banquette to the counter and watch Chef Carmen Trigueros as she celebrates the tradition of well-being found in the Mediterranean lifestyle, combining the ingredients of Italy, Provence, and Spain’s Basque region together with a dash of Miami’s own Latin flair. The result is a versatile array of culinary offerings, from freshly concocted tapas to enjoy with wine, to elegant multi-course dinners served in the intimate private dining room at La Cava, the private membership wine club situated, literally in La Bottega’s exclusive wine cellar.

Every Month, Chef Carmen showcases culinary delights from a different county or region of the world, and the various culinary events that take place throughout the month are adapted to the theme:
• Wine Tastings with Wine Director Henry Barrow every Thursday at 6:30 pm
• Wine Wisdom, Henry Barrow’s Wine Appreciation Class every Wednesday
• Chef Carmen’s Cooking Class is every 1st and 3rd Tuesday
• Live Jazz Cabaret in La Cava’s intimate setting takes the last Friday of every month.
• Additionally, La Bottega regularly has a Guest Wine Maker series, inviting top winemakers to pour at special tastings.
• Every quarter, La Bottega features a multi-course Wine Pairing Dinner.

Open seven days a week for Tapas, Lunch and Dinner. Enjoy a variety of wines by the glass, by the bottle or tastings from our Enomatic custom-pour system!
