Was Anonym at Mr. Ottorino a mag?
Homely place that has been many different restaurants through the years.Italian fare now and more along home cooking, which was delicious and my kind of food.Friendly and efficient staff. Smallish menu, but for me i prefer that as too many dishes is to confusing.Had the honey roast lamb shoulder, which is enough for 2 people with some extra sides. Fact is i could have knocked it off myself. Everyone at the table said... View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Mr. Ottorino:
Awful! Two of the menu items were unavailable. Free bread was over toasted and served with very salty pickled cabbage. Taleggio croquettes tasted of gluey potato only - where's the cheese?. Grilled corn wasn't grilled. Frito misto didn't have the anchovies as listed in the dish description!!! Porchetta was actually pork belly!!! Brisket tasted like fried corned beef. Conchilioni was dry and no hint of truffle whatsoe... View all feedback.

The restaurant is located just a few doors down from our hotel, which was ideal as my partner was having trouble with their leg.

Excited to finally dine at this restaurant that I had been wanting to try for a while. Chef Ludovic Turac, a young chef (around my age of 25) known for his work at L'Hotel du Castelet and Top Chef, was the reason I was particularly eager to experience this dining establishment.

We enjoyed a variety of eight dishes inspired by the cuisine of Provence at Turac. Each dish was thoughtfully crafted and presented in a well-thought-out sequence.

I was very disappointed to arrive for our dinner reservation for four on a Sunday night, only to find the restaurant closed. There was nothing on their website or social media explaining why they were shut that evening, especially since they were supposed to be open as per their regular hours. To make matters worse, I received no response when I tried to contact them via phone and Facebook. I recommend calling ahead to confirm whether this restaurant is actually open before making a reservation.

"Delightfully simple yet delicious menu with a cozy atmosphere, offering a truly beautiful dining experience of Southern Italian cuisine."
