                                        Always great food here at Otto’s. Fried green tomatoes are to die for.

                                        It was a very good dining experience. This was our first time there. Our server, Annie, was wonderful. We both had the scallops and loved them along with some great wine and beer. Our only disappointments were that the table we had was quite un-level and the noise level got to be too loud for us after 6:30. We will go back and probably get there earlier and get a table outside. Fun place with delicious food options.

                                        We loved Otto’s. We hadn’t been here in quite awhile but some family came in from out of town. So we decided to try it again. Love the electric china dishes. I had the seared scallops and watermelon soup. It was delicious! We are sort of hard to please but we definitely recommend this restaurant!

                                        Fried green tomatoes and mussels were out standing! We all LOVED our choices, but we especially LOVED our waiter, Eric. He made great suggestions and made us feel very special!
