Bar OTTO is one of my new favorite places in the city for exceptionally good food & cocktails. The service was absolutely fantastic - our server was super friendly & made us feel very welcome. We sat at the bar - which made for great views of both the bartending & kitchen. We were really there for the drinks, & boy did they not disappoint. I had the best cocktail in the city here - the Spicy Marg!!! It was literal perfection - the bartender is incredibly talented & also very kind. We also got the crab boa & cod cheek skewers which were absolutely delicious. We will be coming back for a full meal & more Spicy Marg's very soon!

Tasting menu is a delicious scam. 50$ each for 4 people but enough food to feed 2.

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!

We had an amazing time at Bar Otto!
We went to celebrate my husband's 32nd birthday & chose the three-course tasting menu with wine pairing - which was the best decision we could've made, since it was our first time at the restaurant. Charlotte & Chloé took great care of us!
For dessert, I ordered the yuzu cheesecake, & they even added a candle, which was such a thoughtful touch! We were also treated to a plum liqueur to finish the night.
We'll definitely be going back!

Made a reservation, thinking that having ramen on a rainy night would do the trick.

But then, on a whim, threw caution to the wind, went for the chef's choice tasting menu & delighted over every dish served. I'm still thinking about how tasty the heirloom tomatoes starter, salmon oshizushi, truffle mazemen & matcha-chocolate layered cake were.

The service was great - just the right amount of attentiveness & warmth that set the tone for dinner with a dear friend & made for the perfect setting to catch up, dine & drink well.

Looking forward to an excuse to re-visit in the hopes that I remember to take photos -we were immediately intrigued by the visually stunning dishes & went for each one the second after we fawned over the plating.

Colour us pleasantly surprised!

My experience at Bar Otto was fabulous. Incredibly fresh ingredients & the service was phenomenal. I found the price to ratio for the Wagyu & Toro not fabulous compared to say Nozy but overall still incredibly tasty. The soft shell crab Bao & the salmon Oshizushi were clear winners. The duck Mazemen was bland.
