Review Summary

Ottavio garners broad praise for its flavorful Italian fare and especially for a gluten-free program that feels safe and well managed, with separate utensils, dedicated dishware, and clear attention to avoiding cross contamination that keeps celiacs confident. The food is frequently described as fresh and delicious, with pizza crust highlighted as excellent, arancini and Caesar salad among favorites, and desserts like mini donuts; the option to bring your own wine is a welcome bonus. The ambiance is pleasant and the staff praised for friendliness and knowledge, though some visits mention slow service, uneven attentiveness, or moments of poor coordination, and a few diners found the place loud or the portions not always aligned with the price. For events or groups, the restaurant is viewed as a strong and flexible choice, with thoughtful gluten-free accommodations and menus ranging from simple to refined; overall it is seen as a reliable option for gluten-free diners and pizza lovers, even if experiences can vary.

Ça fait des années que l'ont vient manger dans ce restaurant qui a toujours été délicieux mais hier le pain n'était pas frais, froid, nous avons commandé 2 entrées un tartare de saumon (on aurait dit une salade puisqu'il n'y avait pas trop de saumon) & deux plats de linguini aux fruits de mer dont 1 que nous avions demandé de remplacer les linguini pas des penne. Finalement ils n'ont pas été remplacé par des penne & les plats n'était vraiment pas bon les pétoncles n'étaient pas cuits & les crevettes avaient un arrière goût pas bon & une couleur bizarre & nous avons été chargé pour les penne. Il n'y a eu aucun geste pour ces deux erreurs ont nous a juste redonner le 1$ chargé pour les penne +taxes donc 2$ LOL bref cest bien dommage un si bon restaurant qui se dégrade comme cela.

I was here simply because they are a gluten free option for one of our guests. The room belies what is to come, its contemporary well divided & pleasing to the eye. No overcrowded areas, the noise level is fun but non intrusive as many other BYOB places.

For the rest its a BYOB chain so what can you say about the food. The appetizers were given a thumbs up by some of the guests. I had a few of the calamari which were actually better than expected having been well cooked so the batter was crispy.

I tried the pasta which a friend had rated as good at our last visit, I found the linguine overcooked which can be forgiven as I like my pasta on the hard side. The sauce cannot be forgiven, it was bland & very overcooked

Others had the lasagna which disappointed also.

I must say it has to be expected in today's environment.

The service though was good & attentive despite a full house in a raetaurant that must hold over 200 persons

Liike many chain BYOB restos expectations should be limited. Ottavio's however has a super funky decor in a vast room that is beautifully divided. Some higher end restuarants could learn a thing or two.

The menu is limited to pasta pizza & Moules. Sounds sparse but when you think about it it makes for some great advantages in th end.
Such a menu means the food is fresh especially during the Mon-Wed nights when the moules are at volonte. The pizza was OK but I must say i asked for anchivies & hot peppers & I actually tasted the anchivies.

The salad & salmon appetizers were very respectable although the bread was a little limp as if it was being stored in a plastic bag.
Coffee was actually quite good & the service was prompt discreet & timed well,Ottavio pulled this off despite it being a chain, here also some higher end places could learn a thing or two.

Should you go yuup! Can you bring a new date here yup just because the place is well put together...& get a decent bottle of wine it makes all the difference

My best friend threw me a surprise party here. 20 people. The service was good, the meal came quickly too. I ordered the oriental salade, & while it looked nice, i found it a bit bland. Prices for meals were reasonable, bring your own wine is great, & the desserts were superb. Its a generic resto you should go to when you want to have a simple lunch/ dinner with your buddies. Nothing special, nothing horrible.
