Great atmosphere on a Sunday, we came with our baby and they were very welcoming and pleasant. We ordered the Crab Salad, croquetas and Media Noche, absolutely delicious. Also their coffee is fantastic! Will definitely be coming back to try more food items!

Amazing restaurant food , service and atmosphere are one of the best in Orlando area. Bruno the GM is a great addition we drove over from Lake Nona to give Ottos a try and we will be regulars. The food and ingredients are top quality hand crafted meals.

I know I’ve found a gem of a restaurant when I want “one of everything” on the menu and Otto’s was exactly that! We grabbed an outdoor table to enjoy a breezy Florida afternoon (while they last). Music played overhead at just the right volume, it set the mood without overpowering conversation, and with that, our dining journey began. A variety of drinks made their way around the table; I went with a delicious margarita. To start, we shared the oysters, tuna ceviche, crudo, and bread service. Everything was fantastic, but if I had to choose a favorite, the crudo would take the crown, with they oysters as a closed second (possibly a tie). Next came the chicharrones, plantain chips, and lamb chops (confession: they looked so good, we dug in, and I forgot to take pictures!). The lamb chops were perfectly tender, and the plantain chips were crispy and full of flavor, seasoned with a tasty salt and Tajin-style mix. For the main course, I had the coffee-rubbed ribeye. It was juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. Others at the table enjoyed the mojo chicken, ropa vieja, and lobster dish. We all cleaned our plates—every bite was devoured. Though we were stuffed, skipping dessert at a Cuban restaurant just felt wrong, so we made room for flan and tres leches. Both were spot-on: perfectly textured, not overly sweet, and generously portioned. The service was just as memorable as the food. Our server was phenomenal—drinks were replenished without delay, water pitchers stayed full, and we were checked on just the right amount. We loved it so much, we made reservations to come back the next two weeks!

From start to finish it was a pleasure being a patron here. We arrived without a reservation and the host was able to work some magic and get us a table. We were served by an incredible server, Taylor, who kicked up the dining experience to another level. We settled on the ceviche with plantain chips, the lobster dish, the special bison tomahawk, and a few passionfruit mixed drinks. The bison tomahawk was delicious and cooked damn near perfect- have to leave a bit of room for improvement(even though I don’t think it could have been better). Under the lobster there was a plantain muffin that was delicious- so much we got an additional one to go. Taylor was extremely attentive and friendly. She wrote us a list of local nightlife spots to try- again going above and beyond. Highly recommend giving Otto’s a try, couple it with a request for Taylor and your night will be one to remember.

I've been reviewing the best of the best in Orlando for over 5 steady yrs! I've had wonderful experiences, great food from everywhere you could imagine. My palate is extremely versatile and I will try anything. Rarely do I come across an experience that makes me wish I could go above the limits of the 5 star rating system. This visit was absolutely one of those rare gems! From the moment we entered we were greeted with smile after smile until seated. We chose to sit at the bar because as a foodie, I have an understanding that this is where things could fall apart. On the contrary! I was met by two absolute professionals at their jobs! They enjoyed their jobs and took meticulous pride in what they did. This reflected onto my drinks and food selection. McKenzie is absolutely outstanding at what she does. Then there was Jason. Sheer and absolute pride in his drink making abilities. The menu, you ask? Which one? Because the food menu had some very interesting choices and Ropa Vieja, Pork, and pastelillo de carne where among my choices. Then there was the shrimp cocktail. The sauce had me dancing in my seat! Even the dip for the cuban bread was delicious!! Then the drink menu!!!! Ah, yes! Nothing on the list is boring and the names bring some growing up memories. Watching McKenzie take attention to detail to another level with accurate and well received drink garnished and Jason making 4 different drinks perfectly measured at one time. I got to drink some of his mixes and I can honestly say ..perfect! The entire experience from beginning to end was levels above the rest! Enjoy the food, enjoy the drinks, the fun crowd, great decor, dog friendly environment, outdoor seating. But mostly....enjoy the service of people who seem genuinely happy to do what they are enjoying with a Proprietor that seems to appreciate their input. Great ambiance! I recommend sitting at the bar and watching the fireworks! Great taste! Great service! Oh, did I mention the clean as heck bathrooms!!!
