Review Summary

Bar OTTO comes across in reviews as a lively yet intimate spot with standout cocktails and a sushi and sashimi program that many describe as fresh, inventive and beautifully presented. The ambience and service are repeatedly praised, with guests noting attentive, friendly staff, a welcoming bar area, and a warm vibe that suits dates, celebrations or casual nights with friends. The menu is praised for variety and quality, including daikon and burrata, crab bao, cod cheek skewers, wagyu and toro, a ramen with duck leg and truffle oil, and a yuzu cheesecake for dessert, with many savoring the tasting menu and strong wine or sake pairings. While some express that portions can be small for the price and a few service hiccups occur, the overall consensus highlights consistent excellence in food and atmosphere, a willingness to return for omakase or seasonal changes, and Bar OTTO as one of the city’s notable Japanese inspired options.

Bar Otto delivered an incredible dining experience. The service was attentive & warm, & the ambiance set the perfect tone for the evening. The food was exceptional the ramen with duck leg & truffle oil was rich & flavorful, while the cod cheek skewers were buttery & perfectly prepared. The sashimi was fresh & delicate, & we paired it all with a great bottle of Japanese natural wine, Anfora Rossa 2021, which was just perfect. A refined & memorable experience highly recommend.

Love Bar OTTO! It has an awesome chill & intimate vibe great for a few drinks & a meal with close friends, a date, or a special occasion, but what really sets it apart is the staff.
I have only gone a handful of times but the staff recognized me really quickly & make sure to so hi when I pop in. It's the little things but it really made us feel welcomed when we first moved into the neighborhood. I love a local personal experience that feels small village in a big city & that's exactly what they provide.
The food also happens to be delicious & unique & they have a really solid Japanese whiskey listing which is what initially drew me in.
Thanks all! Don't change, you're the best!

Good Japanese eats. The uni pasta & the torched salmon were great.

Solid place to have good Japanese food. The store is designed as a very welcoming & beautiful environment to sit, talk, & eat. The food is very tasty & the service is quick. The walls are decorated with various Japanese references.

Really good food (Japanese/Asian/a bit of Western fusion food)! I love it so much. The sashimi was fresh & delicious (only one kind of fish was okay). We ordered five different dishes, & they were all well-made, fresh, & tasty. The servers were super friendly. However, the price was quite high. I feel the presentation of Nirigi can still be improved. But will be back again!

Was looking forward to this meal since last week due to the good reviews. Not sure how they got them or maybe it was just a bad day for me at the restaurant. Totally overhyped. My duck confit mazemen was bland, super tasteless like they had forgotten the salt? A friend had the otto ramen, & it was the same -bland soup. Only saving grace was the truffle mazemen due to the truffle taste. All three were lacking flavours. Quite disappointing. 2 stars saving grace for the duck. Was alright. Had better. Try this place if you're in for a non authentic japanese mazemen experience.

Great option for Japanese food in the area, with a creative menu.

One of my favorite Japanese restaurants with both fresh sushi/sashimi as well as mazemen noddles. It also accommodates for vegeteiran options as well. They also have a great drinks & sake. Last but definitely not least, their staff is incredibly kind & even accommodates children & infants. For budget friendly options, they have an omasake (chef's choice) from Monday to Wednesay 3 course meal for 45$ which is incredible value (we had lobster & octopus included)

Amazing Japanese food selection, fresh sashimi, chirashi options & crab bao. Absolutely love the Grape Republic wine selection. Wish more people new about this place so they would get the traffic they deserve ❤️
