Prep Cook

Cotogna is a dynamic restaurant aspiring to be the best neighborhood restaurant in the country. Featuring regional Italian fare, Cotogna means ‘quince’ in Italian as a nod to its sister restaurant next door. Cotogna offers a seasonally and frequently changing menu of spit‑roasted or grilled meats and game birds, house‑made pastas, wood‑oven pizzas, local seafood, salads, salumi and cheese, in the warm atmosphere of the restaurant’s refined urban design.

A sophisticated yet playful cocktail program features innovative, ingredient‑driven cocktails, and its celebrated all‑Italian wine list is approachable yet eclectic.
