Botako
About
Botako is a vibrant pizzeria‑restaurant nestled in the heart of Belgrade, offering a genuine Italian dining experience with a distinctly local twist. From its bustling kitchen where freshly made pizzas rise to golden perfection, to its warm, rustic interior adorned with vintage brickwork and wrought‑iron beams, Botako invites guests to savor authentic flavors in a relaxed, family‑friendly setting. The restaurant’s garden patio, framed by a centuries‑old wall, provides a charming outdoor spot for leisurely meals and live music, especially enjoyable during the milder springs and autumns. Whether you’re a pizza connoisseur, a pet owner seeking a welcoming atmosphere, or simply looking for hearty Mediterranean fare, Botako delivers quality, creativity, and a welcoming smile. The menu blends classic Italian staples—such as Margherita, Quattro Formaggi, and Tuna Steak—with inventive offerings like the “Nljote” mezze and locally inspired pasta dishes. Beverage selections range from craft beers and fine wines to an array of specialty coffees and fresh juices. Locally sourced ingredients, meticulous preparation, and a generous free‑delivery option (minimum 990 dinars) further enhance the experience. Table reservations are available on the official site, where guests can book a spot for any day of the week, guaranteeing a smooth dining experience during peak hours.
