Otto Yakitori Izakaya is described as a vibrant and cozy spot with an appealing ambiance and a wide range of skewers, where many diners praise chicken yakitori, karaage, Brussels sprouts, buns, and other small plates, as well as friendly service and a solid drink selection; however, several reviews note inconsistency in flavor and seasoning, with some skewers tasting bland or sour and prices sometimes seen as high for the portions; busy crowds and loud music can affect the experience, and a few visits mention slower or uneven service or billing mix ups; despite these mixed moments, the overall impression is that Otto Yakitori Izakaya delivers strong flavors and a memorable izakaya vibe that invites return visits.
We got a several skewers. Some were delicious, some were just ok. The chicken skin, pork belly, scallops & lamb are pretty good. The vegetables were not worth & the squid was very chewy & tough.
The service is pretty fast & the staff is nice. The price is pretty high considering that we mostly just got skewers (around 80$ per person).

I used to go this place often because the food & mood is good.
But today the service was very poor & I didn't get my food for 40min after we order the second round food. No one was take caring my table & we were just sitting there even without water for an hour. They didn't know that the order wasn't went through even though they took a note when we order.
There was absolutely no after service for this situation.
TOUT ce que nous avons commandé était délicieux!!! J'ai adoré l'ambiance du resto! Éclairage tamisé, très bon service, nourriture de qualité . Mention pour le poulet Karaage👌
Somewhat nice inside with huge sellection of saki. Expensive for small skewers. The Brussel sprouts were excellent a must order.
Left hungry & unsastified. Due to small place & loud music some drunk guy was screaming at the top of his lungs. Couldn't hear myself talk. They apologized for the idiot customer.

Excellente nourriture avec ambiance très conviviale. Le service est particulièrement chaleureux. Shout à Fanny qui nous donne un excellent service avec chaque fois que nous y sommes :)
The restaurant canceled my reservation because I cancelled the reservation before. While I have never done that & the phone number shown on the record is not me. Moreover, they did not notify us in advance, which was very inconvenient. The waitress's attitude was also unacceptable.
We always loved the place & the food. But yesterday the service was just ok. It was pretty busy, but the tall waitress was doing all the work running around while the small waitress was just talking with friends & going outside the whole night. She was really laid back. We ordered drinks with the small waitress, but never received. The other one apologized & gave us shots. She was nice. We will still come back, but felt bad for the waitress.
Une expérience absolument unique! Des bons petits plats frais dans une ambiance survoltée, mais conviviale! Parfait pour un 5@7 ou une sortie en gang. Je le recommande absolument. 👍🏽🙂

Super bon BimBimBap, service super avec le garçon qui travaille la , rapide attentionné souriant. Par contre la fille fait semblant de travailler , fait des allers retours les mains vides & vient pour collecter l'argent & essayer de voler 30% de tips …
