Description
At Mario Batali’s inspired pizza place, expectant diners are assigned a city, then must wait for it to be posted on a board imported from an Italian train station. It’s a cute idea, but the constant crush of Batali fans means that you can be watching the board for 40 minutes or more. The Otto team can get away with this because the food lives up to its reputation. Italian cheeses come with such counterpoints as jellied Seville orange rinds or honey with black-truffle drippings. The 700-bottle wine list favors offbeat selections that can be sampled in quartino minicarafes. The award-winning gelato selection ranges from excellent to exceptional (the salty-sweet olive-oil flavor). The centerpiece here is the selection of individual-size pizzas. Toppings such as shell-on clams or lardo, thin slices of luscious pork fat, are terrific and come on a pitch-perfect crust.
Hours
Daily 11:30am–midnight.

Don't believe the hype. We ate there today and everything was terrible. The service was beyond belief. We sat for nearly 15 min before we saw our server. Then we had to beg a busboy for our water and bread. Then we had to ask the manager to bring us our wine, which arrived several minutes after our food. And the food was terrible, too. Don't waste your time and money on the Batali name. What a waste.
