Jim and Judi Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Today we visited Otto Italiana, across the street from Los Establos. We've walked by many times and decided to stop in today. We ordered two sandwiches, one with marinated veggies ($6) and the other with fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil pesto ($5.) Both were served on a baguette and came with a small salad. The portion was large enough that I could have eaten half and taken the other half home, but my other half ate my other half The sandwiches we're delicious! They have wine by the glass and bottle and a good selection of beer. The menu includes lasagna, starting at $6, pasta and other traditional Italian dishes like chicken parmesan. You can also buy Italian cold cuts, fresh mozzarella, sun dried tomatoes, grilled artichoke hearts, anchovies and more to take home. The restaurant is nicely decorated with table and bar seating, soft music was playing and the place has a nice relaxing vibe even though it's on the main drag. Otto is open from 11-6 every day except Monday. We imagine going back some time in the later afternoon, sharing a plate of olives and sun dried tomatoes, maybe some tiramisu and a bottle of wine and watching the world go by. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're closed on Monday, Judy! Also, I think it was actually described as tiramisu parfait, or something like what. But I'm not picky so I'll try it. They also had some kind of Nutella cookie and cheesecake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyS Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Their sign says Open Lunes - Viernes. Is that not right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hil Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 We ate there and the lasanga was great to us. She had the veggie and I had the pollo. Reasonably priced and the portions were fitting also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarieElaine Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I have a friend who also ate there and highly recommends it. I will have to give it a try myself. Nice to have inexpensive alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcelyn Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 We've tried several pasta dishes at Otto's. All excellent. Small area and often crowded. The waitress used to work at the German restaurant in Plaza San Francisco. Great food and friendly service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
