Grabbed a slice of pepperoni on Saturday evening an was pleasantly surprised. This is the pizza I remember growing up. Charred yet chewy crusty, a nice sauce and a decent cheese. Certainly one of the better slices in Maine!
What does one do on a snowy (read ‘no school’) day? Well one packs their kiddos up in the car and drives to Portland for pizza! I had been hearing about OTTOs for a while now so I decided today was the day to try it. Kids got straight up cheese, I got the mashed potato, bacon, scallion. Unbelievable…who knew that belonged on a pizza?? The crust was crisp without being too thin – overall a REALLY great pie!
I love Ottos but was very disappointed last night. The entire bottom of my pepperoni pizza was burned black. My kids would not even eat it. For $20 it was not worth it.
Undoubtedly one of Portlands most well-known entities, eleven locations now found around town or as far as Boston to the South, it was to the original Otto that the GPS was pointed after a quick jaunt to Booth Bay Harbor, the too cool service rivaling The Honey Paw for hipster indifference while the Pies themselves are thankfully executed with a far greater degree of passion.Surprisingly only open since 2009, the Congress Street slice-shop since expanding to one of the full-service restaurants just two doors down, Otto suggests that Pizza is simple food. But it doesnt have to be ordinary, and with this idea in mind the menu spins both classic and non-traditional, favorites such as the Masher featuring Mashed Potatoes, Bacon and Scallions without sauce or cheese added while a Pasta-topped pie receives substantial praise for good reason as the lightly baked Tortellini burst with gooey richness amidst little more than hand crushed tomatoes and herbs.Dining at an off-hour on Independence Day, the soundtrack featuring appropriate American Standard tunes, it was with only two other tables filled during the course of a 60-minute visit that our party of three partook in the ideas of two local friends, a starter of Meatballs a bit meager considering the cost while the pizzas proved a far more worthwhile investment as we focused on the fan-favorites listed above.Not precisely Neapolitan despite the wood oven, but also not quite as thick as most pies served in the central states, Ottos pizzas are distinctly their own in terms of the crunchy crust structure than manages to be light without substantial leavening, the light blister only enough to accentuate the ingredients without leaving any sort of charred taste that lingers in the mouth. endoedibles.com
Tonight was the first time I tried an Otto pizza after having read some very good reviews. The chicken with carmelized pears and fontana cheese was very good. The crust was amazing. I did take out but the sweet restaurant made me want to eat there.
Pizza By the Slice. The best pizza in town,JB the pizza luver
Sausage & Vidalia..yumm. First time visit just today, and am munching as I type this.My friend was correct, the crust is quite yummy.It’s thin crust, with cheese & toppings in great proportion: not too much onion..overall, yummy
