The food at OTTO is delicious and unashamedly simple, taking inspiration from modern Italy. Head Chef Will Cowper’s menu is fresh, seasonal and produce-driven; sourcing the finest local ingredients and letting them speak for themselves at OTTO Ristorante and OTTO Osteria.
OTTO’s fun and generous fare captures everything people love about the Italians’ approach to food – from perfectly al dente pasta, to local seafood cooked on the wood grill, served simply with lemon and olive oil. When you eat at OTTO, you are truly living la dolce vita.
