    Went to Otto's in Exeter New Hampshire. We ordered the cheesy bread also an order of stuffed mushrooms a pizza and a to-go box lol. We had to save room to be able to try out the cheesecake balls. I highly recommend the cheesy bread and the cheesecake balls. The pizza was really good, especially if you like thin crust very tasty. We ordered a Mediterranean and it was delicious.

    Ordered a vegan pizza extra sauce light cheese and was givin extra cheese and light sauce. I paid for extra sauce too. Also the veggies were so tiny. Better off making your own at home for the price you pay

    The first time we ordered from here, I didn’t realize they don’t spread the tomato sauce around the dough like a typical pizza. Instead, they add dollops of tomato sauce around the top, the “Otto way.” I found I don’t like the Otto way so I order mine the traditional way. Anyway, I really like the pizza here. The crust is delicious. You can tell it’s an authentic, simple recipe and it bakes beautifully. Toppings-wise, I’m a big fan of the hot honey cup pepperoni or plain cheese, but they offer a bunch of stuff. They have vegan cheese for the dairy free people, which is great. As far as other things on the menu, we’ve ordered the salads before and they’re average, so we really just stick to the pizza. Overall, a very decent take out pizza option for downtown Exeter 4/4.5 stars.. We’ve ordered take out from here many times, but this was our first time eating in. The pizza was even better than it normally is when we order takeout! The server was nice and the service was good, but slow. They have a few tables outside, which on a nice day / night, is lovely. And the restaurant has two different entrances / areas with plenty of room. The main area has a bar. The parking is hit or miss. It’s street parking and it can get busy at peak times. 3.5/4 stars for dine in Excuse the crappy pictures I kept forgetting to take some 🤷🏻‍♀️
