Via Bottaccio, 1 – 54038 Montignoso (MS) Toscana
Restaurant Il Bottaccio
The Restaurant
Il Bottaccio Restaurant is the precursor of a formula which originates from the marriage of intuition with fine cuisine. A haven for the gourmet traveller, the table at Il Bottaccio is an altar around which the four elements – air, earth, water and fire – celebrate the rites of the senses.
For the fortunate guests of this antique olive oil mill, it is impossible to distinguish where the restaurant ends and the art gallery begins.
Its refined collection of sculptures, paintings, antique and modern furnishings, and careful blending of styles create the canvas for an unforgettable dining experience. Here the food is made of a finer substance, where perceptions, sensations and emotions combine to nourish both body and soul. Here cuisine is exalted through the subtle infusion of beauty, rhythm, and poetry adding the unique quality that demarcates the establishment’s passage from Profession to Art.

Chef Nino Mosca
In Nino, Chef and General Manager of Il Bottaccio for more than 35 years, there is the precious gift of equilibrium, acquired from years of dedication, experience and introspection, which permits him to blend a luminous creativity with the most profound roots of Italian tradition.
The cuisine of Il Bottaccio is made not only of a physical, material food, but also of a much more subtle one – an invisible plankton made of perceptions, sensations, and emotions generated by the atmosphere and environment itself.
This beauty, rhythm and poetry give the cuisine of Il Bottaccio that unique quality that transports it from being a simple trade to an art gourmet encounter to an unforgettable personal experience.

Sala della Piscina
Our unique “Sala della Piscina” – heart of Il Bottaccio, houses the main body of the restaurant in a perfect symphony of elements played between the pool lying at the room’s center, the giant wooden trusses flying high above, and the oversized glass and wooden portals marching down both sides.
