Yay everything looked awesome. You and Roberto are so sweet and down to earth. I hate that you said YT isn’t paying the bills lately so now I’m commenting on everything you do! Ante up yt lol

[@bodegacatx]

I really appreciate you ❤️❤️

[@presleecarson532]

You the best

[@luisestevez9547]

Berto sipping the tiny white cup with his pinky up 🤣 it looks so small in his hand lol

[@joannabrown9577]

Y'all are so darn cute together, God bless you both. ♥️♥️♥️

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you ❤️❤️

[@presleecarson532]

Yes I’m jealous

[@margarett_b]

I am subscribed to quite a few YT channels but honestly, your content always makes me so much more excited than anything else. I not only enjoy seeing some great spots and wonderful people behind them (like the founder of Coletta!) but I simply adore your personality - and when you take Berto with you, the energy is even better! . Anyways, sending you lots and lots of love! Stay safe and have a great end of this week!

[@bodegacatx]

Awww thank you so much. You’re so sweet

[@VeganTwosome]

Fair. We are more excited about her content than ours too. LOL

[@foreverdancing26]

Yay for going back to the numbers scale! Nothing against the other scale, numbers just make more sense for me 😂 Amazing content as always 💗

[@alainadacosta1222]

This all looks so good! Looks like a nice balance between indulgent and also fresh & high quality. The moment when you caught Berto talking to us without you was adorable. I've been craving tiramisu lately and this made that craving even stronger lol ~ will look for a recipe

[@bodegacatx]

Yes! Also, for fancy Italian, it’s not as expensive as I thought it would be. The 6 dishes were about 77 dollars.

[@alainadacosta1222]

@@bodegacatx Ooh that's awesome, not bad at all for a fancy restaurant!

[@presleecarson532]

You’re awesome

I love videos with both you and berto!!! You guys are a beautiful couple and I love the dynamic between you two

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you ❤️❤️ I love when we have time to shoot together

[@Djlove737]

Looks perfect for a nicer dinner date ! Can’t wait to check it out

[@bodegacatx]

Yes! Great date spot

[@sashameditates]

Two things, 1- love to see you guys together, beautiful and 2- Tiramisu was my favorite dessert before going vegan and all the vegan ones I've tried have been grosssss. This WHOLE dinner looked DIVINE but giiiirrrlll, I am going there just for that tiramisu lol

[@bodegacatx]

I hope you go and enjoy it!

[@Bella-tw9sq]

best couple!! ♡

[@bodegacatx]

Aww thank you

[@rickyandreou]

Nice to see Berto back. I was worried for a minute there that he might have gotten himself lost in South America.

[@bodegacatx]

Haha nooo he’s been back for a while

[@Ceecee123]

everything looks so so delicious

[@essargee14]

really excited to try this place!!

[@bodegacatx]

As you should be!!

[@Ceecee123]

the tiramisu looks amazeeeeeing

[@amyp5388]

Omg everything looked so good 🤤

[@ponnamy]

Nice to see Berto in your video again.

[@bodegacatx]

Always nice to shoot with him

[@deecohen1383]

YAaas KITE HIL RICOTTAAAAAAA! I demolished an entire container tonight when I was only supposed to eat half. I paired it with mandarin orange slices cracked black pepper some almond yogurt plain and tahini and had my sweet and savory fruit salad I swear that almond kite Hill ricotta is everything!

[@GS-lq2is]

Ooh, can't wait to try it! I love Beyond Sushi. Obviously, I need to check out Willow too!

[@GS-lq2is]

I really want to try that tuna! And lots of other things :)

[@yvonnay8904]

[@manmos5539]

Yum!!! This food looks amazing. You two are individually so fun to watch so together is even better! Love your videos like this :)

[@essteekay5695]

My favorite is your "uh ohs" whenever you take a too big of a bite 😊

[@thisisyourfinalwarning]

I missed Berto & Rebecca date nights, y'all looked so good.

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you!

[@margarett_b]

What an AMAZING experience! Coletta seems to be a perfect combination of comforting, home-style flavours and fine-dining which simply makes you feel special. Also, I am definitely jealous: the creamy pasta dish and the desserts you chose are something I used to *looove* and have not found any vegan versions which would truly be on par with the original texture or flavour wise

[@strawberrysoymilkshake]

Ooohh that pasta looks right up my alley. And tiramisu?! I need to go to these places 😭

[@nerisah_xo]

Ohmagoodness the menu 😍

[@meganngeorge]

Holy Crap!! That all looks delicious!!!

[@andreawalker7138]

Everything looked so delicious that I now have to go cry 'cause I'm too far away to try it 😭😁

[@ericryanyawl9401]

Love your date nights!

[@SaveMe1smile]

You are my go to instantly when I need to know if I should splurge on a Spot, I am on budget and eating out has to be worth the price and good too. Thank you for helping all of us experience great food and not waste our money and time.

[@aliabdi6094]

The food looks delicious 😋

[@meghansuslak8695]

Great video. This food looks amazing. One thing portland lacks is vegan italian food! Can't wait to try this place whenever I'm next in NYC.

[@bodegacatx]

We hope you get to try it!

[@Osiwan960]

it's so adorable how you feed your man omg i can't ❤❤❤

[@tammiepulley7167]

Roberto is sooo cute. This looks like such a great restaurant.

[@thedesolatescene3240]

thats some fancy shit damnnn

[@Ceecee123]

i can't wait to come to nYC to eat here some day soon

[@natalielebert1631]

You're both adorable and as for saying 'bruschetta' - the struggle is real! Looking forward to trying this place!

[@ajayvasisht4182]

[@bodegacatx]

Hope you enjoy as much as we did!

[@itscarolinemary]

this all looks amazing! I prepared to watch this with a snack.... shovelling grapes in my mouth and it doesn't compare lol

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome is it hype video Rebecca and great to see Roberto again thankfully he didn't get lost in South America😆 Yummy food. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕❤Rebecca & Roberto.

[@lizcarr6329]

[@gdaves5257]

that pizza alone seems to warrant a visit :)

[@lifesquixotic]

Thanks for this, it’ looks great! Where is your shirt from?!? I love it!

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you! It’s from urban outfitters maybe a year ago!

[@MaryRoseTV]

[@Sarah-eb9rz]

Everything looked so amazing!! And such beautiful food art too 😍😍😍 I want to one day experience eating there!

[@yazzerino]

Berto looks like a hipster artist lmao

[@YahairaLeePerez]

this made me jelly!! All looked soooo amazing!! I just “liked” all your videos for the past 6 months and I can’t stop saying “hey guys it’s Rebecca aka VeganBodegaCat welcome back to my channel” 🤣 it’s stuck in my head. (My fav channel and I watch once you post but I tend to forget to “like” the videos.)

[@bodegacatx]

Haha you are so sweet. Thank you!

[@sarahhh.o]

y'all saying bruschetta is sending me lol! Great vid can't wait to check this place out next time I'm in NYC!!

[@bodegacatx]

Haha I kept on getting bruschetta and prosciutto mixed up 😂

[@organicallyceline7836]

Everything looks soooo good 🤤🤤❤️❤️

[@bodegacatx]

It wassss

[@general.huttslayer.pirate]

Everything looks delicious. Hopefully I can try it when I'm back visiting the family in May!

[@AthynVixen]

Oh MAN you were not kidding . This place looks amazing.. certainly hope to visit next time I'm in NYC and I am not even Vegan,,

[@smguerrero6]

Putting this on the top of my food list for when I visit NYC!

[@bodegacatx]

It should be!!

[@sarahdee374]

I missed what the tuna was made of, anyone? I once made a poke bowl using marinated thinly sliced watermelon in place of tuna (or whatever fish might have been in a "real" poke bowl). It was goood! Oh wow, a great vegan tiramisu! I'm there. and pls let Berto talk, you can share us!

[@bodegacatx]

It’s all jokes! Of course he can talk! And i dont know the tuna ingredients but chef guy says the brand name! And I’m sure they have their ingredients on their website!

[@ashleys_sadness]

The food looked so good.

[@tinabeard582]

Adore you and your content.

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you!

[@TheCorrkyme]

It loooooooooks sooooooooo gooooooood!!!! I’m on the opposite coast. Hopefully I can take a trip to NY one day.

[@erikapauley7391]

Forever calling crackers “bread chips” from now on so thank you

[@shantaforney3038]

Looks delicious! I hate that I am not in New York!

Traveling to NYC next week - hoping to stop by here! 10/10 vegan desserts? Say less 😻

[@bodegacatx]

Oh yes. Enjoy!

[@tenillestewart5370]

Aww I was saying bruschetta so hard at u two lol ! 😩😂 u are adorable.

[@bodegacatx]

We were trying 😂😂

[@Dreamysunshine23]

Loved it... it looks like a wonderful spot🥰

[@InkCat44]

This looks incredible I’ve been craving vegan Italian food 😻 You and Berto are such a cute couple I hope you had a nice date 💜 It was so cool to meet the Chef as well.

[@presleecarson532]

Smile often.Think positively.Give thanks.Laugh Loudly.Love others.Dream Big.:)

[@Wooplot]

Girl quite giving me more reasons to spend my house deposit on a trip to NYC 😂😂

[@deecohen1383]

HEY GURL AND ROBERTO! Hope y’all had fun! I am upstate so no fun vegan places. But I did swing by the amazing health store near one of my jobs today and I picked up kite Hill almond ricotta and a new cashew-based vegan cheddar which I did not try it but I demolished the kite Hill ricotta and I only was supposed to have half I have to give them mad props for the texture because it is unlike any other vegan cheese I have tried so far

[@deecohen1383]

The kite hill ricotta is THE BEST VEGAN CHEESE EVERRRRRRRRRR

[@PinkRose0910]

Is there a reason you didn’t taste tests the appetizers first? It all looks tasty! Did your food get cold? Y’all are so cute in your couple look.

[@bodegacatx]

No it didn’t get cold! :) But there’s no reason we went out of order haha. We just tried things as we felt like it. And thank you ❤️❤️

[@EJAro]

The cipollini onions are pronounced like CHipollini. They are sweeter than the average onion. PS.. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. Your content is addicting! Never disappoints!

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you!

[@veganeatstreats25]

U two look so cute together esp in this atmosphere/ lighting. The food looks expensive for my budget BUT I so would treat myself to this one time. Esp that pizza !!! Speaking of kite Hill ricotta have you tried there Queso? Soooo good...taste like it has cream cheese in it!!!!! It's my favorite vegan queso

[@bodegacatx]

Aww thank you. And no I haven’t but I’ll look out for it!

[@melrox8809]

Everything looks amazing. I haven't had Alfredo in so many yrs bc I can't find a good vegan one.

[@ivanamurphy6917]

I’m gonna have to come here on a date too. Everything looked beautiful 😍

[@bodegacatx]

Yes! It’s great for dates

[@bodegacatx]

My friend just had his anniversary date there

[@zombiecow1909]

Fun video!

[@smmadgeneration1004]

So good....

[@simpking01]

i’m with berto when he said he only had tuna out the van

[@bdjnmrcp]

question, is it hard to fully enjoy date nights that you film??

[@bodegacatx]

Interesting question! Actually yes. These dates are fun but they’re about 80% work. We take “normal” dates other times to make up for it!

[@mgom7646]

🥰🥰

[@vietnamd0820]

I gotta check this place out!

[@jengmetzger]

Sweet!

[@ShaluAloo]

Ayeee

[@deecohen1383]

Get married! Luv you 2 cuties! I agree with you that kite Hill ricotta is the Shiz

[@aliabdi6094]

I think she has said that she doesn't believe in marriage.

[@bodegacatx]

It’s not that I don’t believe in it, I just don’t think I want it. Pretty neutral towards it.

[@deecohen1383]

@@bodegacatx I hear ya. I tried it. It didnt work. Whatev. Luv u 2 cuties! You make me miss my hometown NYC so much!

[@deecohen1383]

Bruchetta. It looked gooooooooood. Im gonna buy some kite hill today for sure!

[@mattmarshall2571]

👏👏👏

[@catbibby1940]

If you love vegan caviar, Ikea (i know lol) makes a really good one

[@UsagiMori]

Omg thank you for sharing! I saw this place on the map and wasn't sure if it was actually vegan but now I gotta go! On a side note idk if you have tried any vegan Jamaican patties in the city? I am struggling to find them but recently saw the Grace vegan vegetable patties in my local grocery that are frozen and you bake them. I was skeptical but they really did well on the seasoning for an all vegan patty! If you have suggestions for where I can find some awesome vegan patties, I would love to know!

[@bodegacatx]

Yes! I’ve had them frozen at the store but also at veggie castle! Super yum

[@amaberc27]

How does Coletta compare to other vegan Italian places in Manhattan?

[@bodegacatx]

I don’t think I’ve been to many but it’s my fave right now.

[@carl13579]

Hey - when you get the owner to talk to you like that, ask him why he decided to create vegan restaurants. Would love to hear their answers.

[@bodegacatx]

Its because he is vegan! :D And a chef.

[@carl13579]

@@bodegacatx :D Well, that's good to hear, but my point is that it would be nice to let them say it in their own words. I also strongly suspect you would make a really good interviewer.

[@savannahwang5388]

You’re dope

[@bodegacatx]

Thank you ❤️❤️

[@NoirHammer]

Ahh . . . one of those fancy places where one is underfed and the food is overpriced leaving the customer to eat when he or she gets home. Hard pass but thanks for the review.

[@bodegacatx]

Oh wow no haha. The entrees were so filling. Did you see the pizza and pasta?

[@NoirHammer]

@@bodegacatx LOL. That's a camera trick. 😁

[@Thesecondcoming222]

I know sometimes Channel changes. But I originally started watching this channel. Couple years ago when you were doing cheap vegan food. I remember that blow up I don't exactly remember when you change the content. Now you're more of a taste tester but you rarely give a bad review. So who can trust reviews by someone who never dislikes anything. I know sometimes channels change but I barely click on your videos these days. I could have just unsubscribed and kept it moving but then how would you get feedback. If a channel is started on cheap vegan eats why would you change the whole platform from what originally started people watching you. This is just my opinion my intentions are not malicious. I just thought you could use a little feedback have a good day

[@bodegacatx]

Hey! No biggie. I didn’t start out with cheap vegan eats although those were some of my fave vids to make! I started out with “is it hype?!” Which I still make all the time. Check out my “new foods” playlist if you want to see bad reviews as I try some weird things on there haha. But it’s also ok to outgrow a channel. I do it too! Thanks for all the support over the years.
