I absolutely love Cotto Wine Bar & Kitchen and I keep coming back with friends. Cotto is the perfect place for stunning food, amazing wine and ambience. One of my absolute favourite places in Bristol. Highly recommended. Perfect.

Cotto Wine Bar & Kitchen is the latest addition to the already impressive ‘Bianchis Group’ (which includes Pasta Loco/ Repina etc). The restaurant is like a dinky hole in the wall with a few tables outside and the lunch menu restricted to 3 options per course and a few specials. It may be a small offering but the focus here is on quality not quantity. The food was sublime; rich, full of seasoning and the pasta had the perfect density and bite to it, just how they serve it in Italy. And there are a lot of decent bakeries in Bristol who honestly don’t come close to the sourdough they serve at Cotto. They need to start selling loaves of that stuff immediately - easily the greatest sourdough bread and olives I’ve ever eaten. I had the scallop special, bucatini with anchovy and panzanella salad. Each dish was perfect, with service to match and the price is more than affordable with main courses costing as little as £10. I will be returning here regularly (and I aim to leave with a loaf of their sourdough each time).
Today’s special drink list is 10 out of 10. White wine is very flowery but not sweet. Orange wine is crispy and fresh, kinda like Prosecco. Red one is full of flavors and has a amazing finishing! Food is so good too. The scallops starter almost the best one I had in Bristol. The source on the top is incredible. We even reordered one plate sourdough bread to enjoy every drop of it. Pastas are great as well. A fly in the ointment is dessert. The lavender pana cotta is not smooth and there is a very strong almond flavor in pistachio gelato. But I think the texture is good. You’ll like it if you enjoy almond.
