Otto has been one of my favorite places to eat for years now. I have been a regular since about 2014, and this was my go to spot for italian food in the lower part of manhattan. But i went back recently (twice), with the second time being Sunday march 8th and i was not happy with the food that we had. The service is always good, its just a standard good service. Nothing amazing, but its on the better end of the service spectrum in NYC. But lets get back to the food. We got a bunch of different dishes, pizza and pastas and we were disappointed with all of them. We asked for a cacio pepe pasta, and it literally tasted like boiled pasta in boiled pasta water. It had no flavor at all. The waitress was very sweet and swapped it out for a bolognese which was... fine. It was just fine. Not like the taste it used to have before. The pizza, was overly well done, with the pepperoni basically burnt. This might be how they do it, but it was just disappointing. I miss the days of the fennel goat cheese pasta, their crisp watermelon salads and spicy olive oil. I am not sure if its because Batali is no longer associated with the restaurant or what, but something has obviously changed in terms of food and food quality.

Really cool spot in the west village. Very New York vibes. Food was incredible, wine was delicious and reasonably priced. Service was great. I personally picked the restaurant and the group of friends that I went with were impressed with the choice, which is all that matters.

Used to love Otto Enoteca...lost it's luster. Service super bad...waitress disappeared and nobody came to help. Bucatini had an overpowering spice probably sage...not good.

Hasn’t been in years and remembered it when it first opened as an awesome place for pizza and pasta. Well, gone is Mario and gone is the good pizza and pasta. Both were over cooked and lacked anything special flavor-wise. I do not recommend it — too many amazing pizza and pasta places in NYC.

When I eat pizza, it has to be great pizza, and as I am New York City born and raised, I know great pizza. Otto Enoteca has great pizza. And great appetizers and salads. And great wine. Matched with the excellent service, it's definitely a neighborhood gem for me.

Too noisy, too busy, commercial, large groups. Staff extremely busy and running like crazy. However, I would work through all this if the food was really worth it and it is NOT. Had so so many better pizzas and pastas in NYC for this to be my everyday dining option.

Very good food at reasonable prices. But the service was not quite up to par as twice we waited quite a while for drinks. They did make up for it by comping the drinks.

In town to visit my niece at NYU and had a great experience. Our waiter, Nick, was THE BEST and truly made our dinner one to remember. The food was excellent. We started with a white pizza and several salads to share. Then we had pasta and finished with the incredible gelato. At every turn, Nick was there to guide our meal and ensure we were taken care of especially when we ordered pasta and gelato to go for my niece who was studying and couldn’t join us. Thank you Nick! Highly recommend Otto!!

Sadly the quality of ofvthe food has declined since a few years back😪 it used to 5 stars and now I feel 2-3. Ordered a margarita pizza , pasta bolognese and gelato for dessert. Pizza and olive oil gelato were meh. Pasta was good. It was ok for my 10 year old and me but With so many amazing restaurants in Manhattan I will not be rushing back. It sad a top notch restaurant has declined like this .

The quality of experience here has really taken a drop over the years. I was entertaining some guests from out of town, with kids in tow. This was my go to spot for family friendly meals. Sunday night and it took forever for the food and service to come. Food was terrible. The pizzas tasted like cardboard. The kids didn’t even come close to the Margherita pizza. Salad was watery. I was so embarrassed. Never again.

Slow and uneven service. Appetizers came out immediately and then we wanted 40 (!!) minutes for some plain spaghetti for my kids! Didn’t even get bread to tide them over until we asked multiple times, and even then it was much delayed. Manager tried to comp us dessert or additional wine but the slow service was making us late for a show. The better thing to do would have been to comp the wine we already had or at least the kids’ food! Or even better, don’t take an hour to bring out plain pasta!

Great wine list as always and food is still good after going for so many years. I wish they would either put salt and pepper on the table or at least offer it whenever the food is served. For both apps and main entree, we had to ask for salt and pepper both times. Deducting one star for that because it got annoying have to track a waiter down to season our food. Also, the carbonara used to be my fave carbonara in the city, but they have changed the dish now so it lacks the flavor it used to.

Nice dining area with nice ambiance. Pizza was subpar which is surprising since this was why it was recommended to me. On the other hand the dessert was outstanding. I give it 1 star for pizza and 5 stars for gelato and dolci.
