   We really enjoyed the food and the service was attentive but not overwhelming. This small restaurant was a great place to celebrate our anniversary. Order the halibut. You won’t be disappointed.

   An amazing meal with great service. Our tradition is to do Otto's for New Year's Eve and they don't disappoint.

   Granted it was New Year’s Eve. We are avid out to eaters and have worked at the #1 restaurant I Cincinnati so we are critics. Otto’s kicked us out after an hour and 30 minutes of dining. It took them 15 minutes to deliver our first drink. We didn’t even order an appetizer. Diner was adequate no desert. We didn’t sit and asked to leave. Seriously

   Hello Lisa! Thank you so much for your feedback. I'm so sorry that this happened to you on NYE. That is not our standard at all. I emailed you with some follow up questions, if you'd be so kind as to respond back. Again, I appreciate that you brought this to my attention, and I apologize about your experience with us. -Alex Klein, General Manager

   Great food and service . The room does get loud , but definitely will go again . The Brussels sprouts are amazing

   Hello Melanie! Thank you so much for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed the food and service. Unfortunately, our restaurant does get loud. We've tried installing noise panels on the ceiling, but that hasn't made as much of an improvement as we expected. We're still trying to tackle this issue. I hope you can come back soon! -Alex Klein, General Manager

   LOVE Otto's!! Been coming here for years and they never disappoint. The fried green tomatoes, Brussels sprouts and the short ribs are outstanding!! With so many amazing options, they "force" you to come repeatedly to try them all!!
   

   Otto'sResponded 5 days ago

   Hello Leo! Wow, thank you so much for the glowing review! The short ribs are my go-to when it's cold. They're delicious! I'm so glad you enjoyed everything. I'm forcing you to come back and try something else. :) -Alex Klein, General Manager

   Otto's is always excellent. We're not local and often schedule around brunch or lunch as we travel through the area

    Had a party of 7 that was seated upstairs in the middle room. Service was slow at the start due to 3 other tables in the next room getting their food as we were seated. We hadn’t even ordered apps 30 minutes after our reservation. But once those tables were served, we were able to order and the service picked up. Stars of the show were the mussels, flat bread, tomato dill soup, filet with king crab, scallops, short ribs and the bread pudding. I would pass on the Cajun Cream pasta.

    Hello Nick! Thank you so much for your feedback. I apologize that the service started out slow in the beginning, but I'm glad it picked up! Thank you for being patient with us. It's so awesome to hear all of the appetizers and entrees that you enjoyed. The Filet Oscar was our special over the weekend. I'm working on having a weekend special every week for 2025. I hope you can come back again, and we can provide you with better service and an amazing dinner special! Have a Happy New Year! -Alex Klein, General Manager
