Otto's Restaraunt Published Sept. 2, 2009 By Col Michael T. Hinman 115 FW Vice Commander Summer 2009 -- Otto's Restaraunt, 6405 Mineral Point Road Sorry about the short hiatus from writing my restaurant review, but I guarantee it was worth the wait. Otto's Restaurant on Mineral Point Road happens to be my favorite "all-around" great place to enjoy an appetizer, dinner, or just adult beverages. I have been so impressed with Otto's over the years that I held my youngest daughter's rehearsal dinner there last summer. Although the food is the highlight of any visit, the outstanding customer service is what keeps my bride and I coming back week after week. From the moment we walk in the door, we feel like a character from Cheers, and as the song goes, "where everybody knows your name". After a pleasant welcome from the bartenders Kim or Rob (and the only staff I have ever seen behind the bar), Georgia and I grab one of the limited number of tables in the bar. A cold beverage and a Mediterranean Platter ($13) quickly arrive (by the way you noticed I never placed an order). On many occasions, Georgia and I will split one or two appetizers and skip dinner. When we are entertaining out of town guests we usually take the entire tour...drinks, appetizers, and dinner. I have sampled most offerings on the menu, however, on most occasions I lean towards the Grilled Scallops ($22) or the Mixed Seafood Grill ($22). The Grilled Pork Chops ($26) are also very good. Recently voted "Best old favorite revisited" restaurant by 77 Square, Otto's also offer's jazz music on the terrace during the summer months.
