Review Summary

Ottavio is widely praised for a warm, cozy ambiance and attentive service, with generous portions of delicious Italian fare that range from lasagna and seafood pasta to mussels and pizza, and a strong emphasis on accommodating dietary needs, including a gluten-free menu and separate gluten-free dishes that appeal to celiac diners and families. The menu is described as extensive and versatile, with lunch specials and options for kids, vegan choices, and the option to bring your own wine (BYOW) adding value. Several reviewers highlight consistent service quality, friendly and professional staff, and a welcoming atmosphere suitable for gatherings, birthdays, or casual dinners. Pricing is noted as sometimes high or rising, while a few comments mention noise and occasional inconsistencies in food execution, and a minority note cleanliness concerns or dim lighting; nevertheless the overall sentiment remains favorable with many stating they would return and that Ottavio remains a standout Italian option in the area.

L'entrée était bonne, tout avait bon goût. Mon repas principal manquait de goût par contre. La sauce était très (trop) liquide. Belle décoration & belle ambiance. Un peu dispendieux par contre. Beaucoup de choix sur le menu.

Pour le prix payé, on s'attend à une meilleure qualité surtout pour établissement de cette envergure..

Food is above average. Will not disappoint. Big room accommodates larger groups yet it does not seem cavernous. Service was spot on.

Plusieurs points à soulignés suite à notre visite. Travaillant dans l'industrie, le service était mauvais. Manque d'attention énorme à la table. Aucun débarassage, manque d'ustensiles. Ça a pris trois personnes & au moins 20 minutes afin de débarasser l'entiereté de la table à la fin de nos repas. On a dû faire signe pour avoir du service à plusieurs reprises (par exemple, personne ne nous a proposé pour les boissons au début & personne est venu nous voir pour les desserts/cafés à la fin). Notre commande avait plusieurs erreurs (mauvais tartare, mauvais accompagnements avec certains plats, moules arrivées complètement froides à table).
Les suiteurs parlaient en arrière au lieu de venir nettoyer. La serveuse ne venait pas nous voir.
Nos plats étaient décevants. Le veau de lait avait l'air d'un plat en sauce avec des spaghetti avec sauce tomate en canne. Les cubes du tartare de thon étaient immenses.
Personne de méchant, mais très décevant.

Il manque juste beaucoup de détails au niveau du service & de la nourriture pour que ce soit simplement agréable de manger à ce restaurant. Je déconseille fortement.

Food mediocre, everything we tried was not what was expected
Tried the octopus, even though it was tender had no flavour & was masked under the hummus it was served with
Cesar salad was generous, either lacking or very little bacon
The big disappointment was the Saumon tartare which was recommended by our waitress that had no taste , however the fries were good
We skipped dessert
Service was pleasant

It's a safe environment for those who are celiac. & there are enough gf options to feel like you can enjoy your dinner without being stuck eating a green salad. The service is always great.

Delicious clams in lobster bisque! Attentive service & bring your own wine. What more can you ask for!

La meilleure lasagne ever à mon avis. Un goût très doux sur la langue. Un délice! Les desserts sont très bons. Certains en petite portion, parfait quand on est déjà plein mais qu'on a une dent sucrée! Excellent service également!
