My wife and I had a great experience at Otto's last month. Ruben and Daniel, our servers, were outstanding. We started with Foie Gras which was some of the best we've ever had. I had the duck breast which was delicious. The ambiance is great. We did get to meet Otto and we did get to watch the full duck pressing, etc.. for a large table near ours. We're adding this to our 'regular' stops in London and letting friends know about it.

Fantastic experience. Food was perfect and staff attentive. Wine was lovely, Guinness was a let down even though usually in the pub downstairs it’s decent. 10/10

    Absolutely faultless, from start to finish. We arrived a little early and were warmly welcomed despite how busy the restaurant was. The staff were outstandingly knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The food was incredible. The wine list long! It was a vibrant restaurant and the high noise ‘mark’ was not a criticism, it was lively and lots of fun people-watching.
