I celebrated my 30th birthday here and everything was absolutely perfect. We were a group of 14 people and Lucas was very accomodating to make sure we had a great experience. The waitress that served us really looked after us the whole evening, checking in about how the food was and making sure the courses were timed perfectly. The restaurant was very unique and the food was amazing - made it a perfect birthday for me. I have no complaints, will definitely be dining here again!

Ototo stuns again. We had our small wedding reception here last year and returned for our anniversary. We tried the tasting menu. Some classics were as good as ever whilst we tried some new items that delighted (like our first ever oysters and the duck katsu). It’s excellent value, as the mains were generous serves we couldn’t finish. The tiramisu dessert seemed like it would be very rich but was well balanced and refreshing after the savouries! The waiters were attentive and patient, we never felt rushed. We hope to return every year 🩷
