$3.50 for a slice...you gotta be kidding me?? Guess not. I tried the potato bacon and scallion pizza. Eh it was pretty bland from what I could taste. And it was drenched in oil. The potatos were good from what I could tell but that's as far as it goes. The slice did get better towards the end (b/c I was almost done). With that said I won't be rushing back to that congested side of town anytime soon to try $4 slices of pizza. read more

Just went here. Been going to the location in Harvard Square for a while and have been a fan of their pizza. Very disappointed with the service here. We came in and ordered two slices and then sat down at the table directly in front of the cashier. We waited 20 minutes and were not served our slices. I was very confused because I saw our slices enter the oven. We were not offered water and were frequently anxious looking for our pizza. I watched as other patrons came in after me and were served. Finally, I asked where our slices were which is pretty unpleasant and was asked by the same guy who took my order "what slices?" He then put two more slices (who knows where my original slices went) and I had to wait even more. I heard one small "sorry about that." Normally, after some terrible experience like that I'd expect a free slice or something from any other restaurant. Nope. Very disappointing and the pizza was not nearly as good as the slices I've had at the Harvard square location in the past. read more

A great pizza starts with a great crust, this was fabulous, the toppings were fesh and generously distributed on the pie. This is among the best I have ever had. read more

This pizza was okay, probably wouldn't get it again. For 2 smalls it was almost $40 which is nuts. The roasted red pepper with Kalamata olive and garlic is way too salty. I could only eat one slice. There were also too many topping which made the crust soggy. The siracha chicken and avocado was good, not amazing. Definitely disappointed since it was supposed to be "one of the greatest pizzas in the country" read more

Finally, a pizza place that Brookline can be proud of. Make no mistake - Otto's is for real. And although I loved the charm of the stand-up walk-in joint in Harvard Square, it's a great addition to Coolidge Corner to have a delicious pizza place that serves beer. The salads could be improved in terms of overall taste and preparation, but the pizzas are right on, especially the mushroom cauliflower. I can already see the steady stream of Brookliners crossing the street from another pizza place to eat at Otto's and they won't regret it or go back. Although many restaurants have come and gone at this location, see Qdoba and Friendly's, I hope Otto's is here to stay. read more

Doesn't get much better than Otto Pizza. Great selection and also offers glutten free pizzas, which is important as my girlfriend is allergic. Butternut Squash, Ricotta & Cranberry is out of this world! read more

This place is disgusting. They have ruined a slice of pizza. It's like they want to make crappy pizza. The crust is droopy, doesn't stay together and so oily. It's like instead of eating pizza I was eating acne. The topping probably came from a trash can. They were horrible. This was by far the worst pizza I have ever had. read more

Bad experience. Stay away. First they tried to put us in "community seating" aka bring up random people to our table and make us awkwardly say that we don't want them in front of them. Then we order and 45 minutes later still not out. We then ask and we see the guy go and tell them to make it! That's right, they didn't even put the order in. We're not sure if it is because the community seating refusal earlier. I doubt we will come back. read more

My favorite pizza in Allston, behind Oath in Davis Square - a little pricey but always feel pleasantly full after eating there

Went here last night with two friends. We all got small pizzas and shared. The variety of pizza is really good; I wish there were more places like this in Boston. Our waiter was good but he was kinda weird. He was a little too attentive and liked to shake our hands alot which I thought was odd. Besides that, this is one of the best pizza places i have ever been to. read more

This is probably the worst pizza I've ever had,and I've had the best, from Bleeker St., NYC. Also the slowest and most confused service. How about some seating, especially for those who have to wait 40 minutes! No stars, needless to say. Chris read more

Great pizza! Friendly vibe. Used to be a McDonalads and has some visible memorabilia. So cute! We will keep coming back to this place. It's delicious! read more

I don't know why only 3.5 stars. My husband and I are from out of state in Boston for an appt. We absolutely loved this place. The crust is thin and crunchy and soft at the same time. I created my own and it was flavorful and jussi yummy. Great beer and wine selection. The staff was wonderful too. read more

My husband and I were running late to the Sufjan Stevens concert, but we were sooooo hungry. What to do?! We spotted OTTO and quickly agreed the answer was obvious - Date Night Pizza! Of course, who doesn't like pizza? We grabbed a few slices of margarita and one slice of possibly the best pepperoni pizza I've ever had, and took it to go. Thin crust, just the right ratio of pizza, sauce and toppings. Every bite was perfect. read more

I'm from Maine originally. Up from NYC to visit friends in Boston. And I could not have been more thrilled to see an Otto's. This za is mind blowing awesomeness. The mash potato, bacon, and scallion ... just imagine bliss in a wedge cause that's what that is. Pure. Goddamn. Bliss. Nice thin slices (NY-style) and great flavor. I haven't been up to the Portland shop for some time, but I am eager to check it out next time I visit friends in Maine. You're not wasting your time on this one friends, definitely worth the trip from wherever you may originate. read more

We were waiting for over twenty minutes in almost empty restaurant and didn't get served even after calling weitress two times, so we left.

I've now been to Otto several times and have decided to update my review. I actually really really like the Pizza here, probably more than Picco or Upper Crust. Picco can be quite doughy, although still amazing, and Upper Crust (even under new management) still concerns me. I love the variety at Otto, and their thin crust crispy pizza is perfect to me. Wait staff is always friendly, and they have a great variety of beers on tap. Also can't go wrong being across from the Coolidge theatre. I have since moved back to NYC, but would totally come back here if I am ever in town again. read more

Great pizzeria in Coolidge Corner and definitely an easy choice for quick eats in the area. I would definitely recommend stopping in here and grabbing a couple slices of pie. I personally went with the chicken and basil slice for starters and the eggplant basil and ricotta slice for the second round. You really cannot go wrong with any of the slices they offer here. Full pizzas are on the expensive side of things but I honestly don't know how two people could eat one full pizza since it is so rich and filling. Good spot for a casual date thanks to its convenient location or even a quick slice before catching a flick across the street. Highly recommended! read more

After searching for a while, we finally found a place that serves pizza the way we like it! Thin crust, fresh ingredients, unique topping combinations that are absolutely delicious, attentive staff and fun, trendy atmosphere. A meal for two is very affordable here, and the option to have wine and beer with pizza is a nice touch. Come here and give it a try! There are so many wonderful flavor combinations to try. read more

The cheese pizza here is so good. You don't even need toppings. Crunchy crust, perfect sauce, just the right amount of cheese. SO GOOD.

Pretty good, but too many handlebar mustaches and cheap suits who don't hold open doors to earn a five. Let's not get crazy here.

I've been here a number of times and the pizza and been quite good. Last night I went, sat at the bar, and ordered a slice and a beer. I was still hungry so I ordered another slice. This is where things turn south. When it was time to go, the bartender just charges me for just one slice. I told him I had two slices and a beer so he said thanks for letting him know and went back and charges my card for the rest. He then charges me for 3 slices and a beer. I tell him I had two slices and one beer. He then has to get the manager to fix it. 5-10 minutes have gone by at this point so the manager then "fixes" it by voiding the first two transactions and charges me for two slices and TWO beers. I'd already wasted 15 minutes so I just sign it an leave. What a joke--certainly not going back again. read more

Stopped here for slices of pizza and they were delicious, but they were a little pricy at $3.50 each. I suppose it's gourmet, but then again, it's just pizza. Good food overall, though. read more

Good pizza selection. I ordered the pulled pork pizza. The pizza was pretty good. The waitress was very nice. The only reason I didn't rate this place higher was because of the hostess, a short haired Asian girl. She was rude and unprofessional. She seated my friend and I in a table for 4. A few minutes later, she came and simply said, "these two people are going to be sitting here too. this is a communal table." First off, she never told us it was a communal table, had we known, we would've sat elsewhere. Secondly, she didn't even ask us if it was okay. Due to the lack of professionalism from the hostess, I probably won't come back here again. read more

Avoid at all costs. Today (1/26/2014) Aate at noon, acid reflux at 1, diarrhea by 2. Cheap and bad.

There is a server named as Alex, throughly she has a mental issues and during Saturday rather rather than enjoying a day off for the weekend she made us so mad and frustrated that I was pushing everyone to be done and get out of that place. For the manager of the Otto at Coolidge corner: I know the Ottos's pizza is good but DO something about the people you hire. Train them and make sure they know what customer service means. read more

Went here yesterday with a friend and got a table right off on a beautiful afternoon! The hostess was a middle aged woman and she was very kind and used her personality to greet us and continue a conversation until we sat. I always love ordering from here because they are good with celiacs and my roommate and I both have it... very happy I was finally able to actually sit down at the restaurant. Our server was Iris and she was kind, efficient, and not intrusive. We ordered in-house made lemonades which were priced reasonably. My friend is picky with her toppings so I let her choose since I've never been let down by Otto. We had the chicken and basil on gluten free crust, a Caesar, and a tomato salad... Which were all fresh. When ordering the salads our server let us know they were prepared near where dough is thrown and let us know about possible contamination, a very important thing in my book. My friend mentioned that this was better then American Flatbread and I can agree they are both neck and neck. I was very happy with the experience and will continue to order and go to the establishments :) read more

I popped in here late night with with my girlfriend for a couple beers and a slice of pizza. The pizza was good and so was the beer. There beer selection was micro brews and the pizza selection was huge. Cool atmosphere and the perfect last stop before heading home. Younger crowd but par for the area at that hour. Check this place out for a real casual bite to eat and beer. Help was very nice. read more

Awful pizza. Worker forgot my order. After 10 mins of waiting when i finally got it i realized the sauce wasnt spread out at all and there was barely any sauce. The sauce that was there was basically a few large tomatoes chunks. Awful pizza, overcooked, 1/10. Never go here. read more

I was pretty damn excited when I found out that you could get the same amazing pizza from Portland but in Boston. Pizza was just as amazing as I had at their Maine location and they served an awesome cbc beer. Bartender was friendly and helpful and had a good sense of humor. I will definitely be back. Im very excited that they have spread out south because this pizza place rocks. read more

OTTO is oh so good. Inventive pie combinations and great beer selection. I especially love the Butternut Squash, Ricotta & Cranberry. The Pulled Pork & Mango can be hit or miss depending on how much pulled pork you get on your slice. Can't go wrong with the Margherita or the Four Cheese. Also, Apple, Bacon & Red Onion - because bacon! My only complaint is that you can't order slices if you sit at a table, at the bar or takeout only. Nonetheless, my favorite pizza joint in Coolidge Corner and the best place for a quick dinner before catching a flick at the Coolidge Corner Theatre. Check it out! read more

Came in a few weeks back. Really enjoyed the vibe but wasn't impressed with the pies. Pass on the Butternut Squash & Ricotta. Solid 3 Star pizza option. read more

Custom personal pizza joint. Good ingredients and very fresh. Great customer service. Staff is very friendly. Dining room leaves a lot to be desired. Music is very loud, to the point you can't have a conversation. read more

Love that they have slices to go but last time I was there the girl behind the counter was reluctant to list off the daily options when I asked what they had. She then asked if I knew what I wanted to which I replied it depended what their slices were that day. She then rattled through the options so quickly I had no idea what they were. If they put up a sign with the daily slices that would eliminate the awkward exchange in the future. I have to say I've been their a lot and haven't seen here there before so maybe she is just new and still training. read more

Love the pizza here, particularly the interesting topping combinations. The crust is crisp and chewy and the pizzas are not over-sauced. I would say one of my top spots for pizza. I've tried the bacon scallion and the eggplant ricotta, both very good. $20 will get you a filling dinner for 2 with leftovers. Love! read more

OTTO is one of those places that excels in their simplicity. They have well made, and original pizzas, a wonderful beer and wine selection, and gracious service. A lot of the appeal is the experience, along the lines of great things, that are great because they don't bring attention to themselves. Seating is always very prompt, drinks and food practically materialize in front of you, and the atmosphere is just classy enough to feel clean, comfortable, and casual. The wide glass windows provide a roomy, naturally lit space. Beyond the great service, the food itself is fantastic. The ingredients are of good quality, and the menu has enough variation to please just about anyone. My main gripe is that they don't do half and half pizzas, but the proportions are well done. A small pizza can comfortably feed two for a quick lunch. Definitely one of my go to places in Boston, they've got my mother hooked too. read more

This place eats donkey anus. I had a pizza here and I am pretty sure there were pubes on it.

Came with the boyfriend and split a caesar salad and a large sausage and vidalia onion pie. The salad was a decent size for sharing between two people, but the two croutons on top were extremely stale. The pizza was okay, but nothing special. Service was good, but overall everything was just okay. read more

They have good pizza slice deals considering their slices are huge and their flavors are much more unique. Service is fast and friendly.

spur of the moment late night food with some friends. seated quickly (it was nearing closing hours). great overall experience. id love to return for a legit sit down dining experience/date night. + 16" Three-Cheese Tortellini + 16" Mashed Potato, Bacon and Scallion + mozzarella & tomato salad. this made my night and i didnt even touch it. i loved watching my four guy friends split two mozzarella & tomato salads, politely offer it to each other, rave about it, tell me im crazy for not trying it, & then give me a hard time for saying theyre not that difficult to make. (not gonna lie, it did look quite delicious). read more
