La Bottega was born from a deep love of Italian tradition and hospitality, meant to offer Waco a fresh and authentic experience—a place to gather, share fine goods, enjoy quality charcuterie, pizzas, sandwiches, and gelato, and take a piece of Italy home with you.
The original vision for La Bottega was meant to be led by my brother, Marco. It was to be Marco’s space, a chance for him to put his mark on the Waco community, bringing the same passion for Italian food and culture that our family holds so dear. However, due to unforeseen and deeply challenging immigration hurdles, Marco’s ability to return to the U.S. was revoked just before the opening of La Bottega.
Since that time, we have faced enormous obstacles in trying to reunite Marco with us, but our efforts have been unsuccessful. Without Marco at the helm, we have not been able to give La Bottega the attention and care it so richly deserves.
We understand that the Waco community deserves the very best, and while we have tried to develop La Bottega, we realize that our family cannot continue to do so without compromising the quality and spirit of what we originally intended. It is enormously important to us that we ensure our flagship restaurant remains the beloved place you have supported for years.
Know that this decision has not been made lightly. We are deeply saddened that we could not bring you the true La Bottega experience that we had imagined. However, we remain grateful for the love and support you have shown both La Bottega and Di Camplis. Your loyalty has meant the world to us, and we are honored to be a part of this incredible community.
