Ordered steak Florintine medium and it came out very rare. Asked waiter to cook it some more and it came out having been microwaved and inedible. Brought this to the waiter's attention and he stated Otto does not have a microwave. I asked could I look in the kitchen and was denied. Never ever again.

We had lunch here today trying the Menu of the Day. The cocktail was superb as was the entree. Unfortunately my husbands beautifully presented main of chicken was not cooked properly, with only an apology on offer this marred the luncheon somewhat.

Unfortunately, like many top end restaurants, the entrees were much better than the main. Stay away from the duck! The pasta entrees are tasty - particularly the tagliotelli.

Ate at Otto for my sisters birthday, the waitress noticed this and without prompting put a candle and a Happy Birthday message on the chocolate plate we had ordered to share. The food was outstanding, will be back v soon.

I hate restaurants where the staff act like they are doing you a favour by serving you. Water had gravel in it, main course was luke-warm and an unidentified creepy crawly scampered across the table mid-meal. On top of all of this, the place had more than its fare share of pretentious wankers. Clearly we were there on a bad night.

Good food. Extremely costly with 5-star bad service. The worst service in Sydney. Simply not worth it.

The degustation menu was exceptional, and not overly expensive. Although some dishes were quite simple, small creative touches made a simple dish into an amazing one. Service was very friendly, however we must have had over 5 different people attend to us, which was strange. However, not a real issue as they were all friendly and the food and ambience was great!

Food was great had the degustation menu. Great place, great view, good service, good food. The price is quite high, you can get similarly good degustation menu's for a bit cheaper than this but I guess you have to expect that at a place with a chef's hat.
Having the sous chef come out to personally thank us for ordering the degustation and ask if everything was ok was a very nice touch. The only downside were the hard wooden chairs, after sitting on them for a long meal our rumps got a little sore.

My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary here last night. The staff were quite observant of everyone's needs wanting to help make people as comfortable as possible on such a cold night. We both enjoyed our meals with the lentil soup, barramundi fillets and the twice cooked pork belly as being standouts. Certainly not a cheap eats but worth going to in order to celebrate a special occasion.
