   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 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!!

   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

   Hello Megan! I'm so glad your dinner with us on Christmas Eve was fantastic! I will definitely let Eric know about your kind words regarding his service. He's wonderful! I apologize that your filet was a little overcooked. Please let us know if we made a mistake or you're not happy with the temperature on your filet for the future! We always want to know when we fall short, so that we can fix it and ensure that you loved every bite the 2nd time around! Have a great rest of the year, and we hope you visit us again soon! -Alex Klein, General Manager

   We had a festive and cozy Christmas Eve day lunch. The food was delicious, we had a festive cocktail and ended with delicious dessert. Service was cheery and attentive. What a great spot!

    Otto’s is nice. The staff is gracious and attentive. The food is just really good! We got a piece of cheesecake to go. When I opened the box, I just laughed. If I’m being generous, the piece was an inch across. Sad, pitiful little $10 cheesecake slice.
    

    Otto'sResponded 5 days ago

    Hello Scott! Thank you for your great review! I apologize that the cheesecake you received was small. We are expanding out dessert menu for the new year! Stop by in 2025 and check them out. I promise you won't be disappointed this time!! Have a great new year! -Alex Klein, General Manager
