Pizza is simple food. But it doesn’t have to be ordinary.
Since 2009 when we opened our first slice shop on Congress Street in downtown Portland, we’ve been striving to elevate the pizza experience. It starts with the ingredients – high quality, local when possible – and the toppings – creative and comforting. Mashed potatoes? Tortellini? Cranberries on a pizza? These are just a few of the things we tried – and they worked. “The Masher” with mashed potato, scallion, and bacon is one of our most popular pies. And people thought it was weird when we first put it on the menu.
Making simple food isn’t easy. We are continuously working to make sure every pizza is perfect and every slice unforgettable. Whether it be from one of our slice counters, or in one of our full service dining rooms, every member of our team is motivated by this goal of consistently well-executed, uncomplicated food.

1/2 & 1/2 Pies
At OTTO, each signature pie is uniquely composed, from its base to its seasonings. Due to the nature of the compositions, the following signature pie combinations are not available as 1/2 & 1/2 pies: Butternut Squash, Ricotta & Cranberry, Mashed Potato, Bacon & Scallion. We are happy to compose 1/2 & 1/2 pies featuring our less involved combinations - although for best results, we recommend two small pies instead
Gluten-Free Crust Pizza 12"$13.75
All pies available on gluten-free crust (with the exception of Three-Cheese Tortellini). OTTO's gluten-free options are appropriate for guests with mild gluten sensitivity. However, they are not recommended for guests with celiac disease. While the crust is prepared off-site in a 100% gluten-free production facility, current store operations cannot guarantee that each handmade pizza does not contain trace amounts of gluten

As a visitor to the area we went to Otto for pizza. Service was very friendly and professional. The pizza was excellent with some great options, and wine was reasonably priced. I’d highly recommend this place.

We got there 15 min earlier than our reservation and was still immediately taken to our table, had our questions answered and food delivered while still fresh and warm. Delicious quality pizza, I typically only order cheese but I tried out their eggplant and was absolutely in love. Easy to catch attention and pay.

Had a large group of 9 persons and made two reservations at the same time to book around typical parameters. Spoke to host at door upon arriving and graciously accomodated. Food was outstanding. Used the restaurant as central location to gather family and we were all super pleased.

We love the food at Otto and always have, but it was so loud in there! The noise level took away from the experience a little. Also, DEFINITELY get the chocolate chip cookie and make sure they warm it up for you. It was amazing!

Music in the place is way too loud to even understand what others in your party have to say. Everyone has to scream in order to be heard -which is exactly what happens and only makes matters worse. Food is fine, service too but the noise level makes it an unpleasant experience. Opt for another pizza restaurant instead!

This was only my 2nd time having Otto pizza, and my date’s first. My first experience with Otto was a few years ago in Newburyport, when a friend brought a couple of their pizzas in for a Super Bowl party. I couldn’t wait for the chance for us to try the Coolidge Corner location and we were not disappointed. My date, who was previously in the “anti-pineapple on pizza” school of thought even cracked a smile when I managed to convince him to try a bite of the pineapple, bacon and hot honey pizza I had ordered. Needless to say he finished the entire piece. Otto pizza is the best!

This is my favorite pizza on the planet, and I just got back to America after trying many different pizza spots in Italy. Try the Sausage & Vidalia pizza with ricotta and hot honey… you will not be disappointed.

Well first of all the overhead ductwork leaked on me regularly. The pizza was overdone. It took a long time for drinks to arrive. They were short staffed so the waitress did her best. But overall it just wasn’t good for the price.

This auto is always stellar. I would strongly recommend getting the garlic not appetizer with extra marinara sauce. They can be a meal by itself, but there’s nothing like it. For pizza I recommend the tortellini cheese pizza, but there is so many other options as well. Make sure to order a salad which is very hearty, the summer special salad is particularly good. The wine selection was also terrific, with a plug for the Italian wines.

First disappointing experience at Otto. Pizza has shrunk! Both in size and the crust is almost invisible. Even more insulting is they will put extra crust for two dollars? Seriously! The flat bread as an appetizer for 7 dollars gives you a better product and more cheese and taste. Have been going to their Otto since it opened but really wish they will get back to making their original product.
