    This is the most dull pizza I've ever had. It's thin crust reminds me very much of Indian's Naan. Very stingy amount of ingredients on the pizza with only 10 small slice of turkey ham. It's tomato sauce is very light in taste. If this is how authentic Italian pizza taste like, I will not be looking forward to try any pizza when I go Italy. And it's fried mozzarella carrozza it's just plain disgusting. Look at how dark it is in the photo. How many times have they reuse the same oil to fry things? Aside from the food, the restaurant is kind of warm despite the aircond is running at 17°C. Definitely finding ourself uncomfortable dining in. Perhaps that's why there's no other customers dining in during a weekend dinner time. I wonder how this restaurant has over 4.5 stars review rating. Did everyone simply gave good review just because of the free ice-cream the owner is offering?

    Delicious Pizza house! Very specialized Pizza restaurant🍕The restaurant is small, so If you're many people, you'd better take it away or order a delivery. It has lots of pizza menus and I ordered Spagetti Pesto🍝 & Margeritta pizza🍕. Both were nice but a bit salty to me :) Bit nice anyway. I recommend Spagetti Pesto(Green pasta) 😋😋💚

    Very authentic Italian pizza where there are only simple ingredients but tasted great! Saw in the shop that they use tomato sauce that is imported from Italy. Portion wise is big (2 person sharing). The fried platter was okay but not to my preference. The portion is super big though (enough for 3 people). Price wise, it is on the higher side.

    Had a pleasant dinner at Otto. Pizza definitely is a good one. Pretty authentic to the italian heritage. Not so thick dough and no long wait after placing the order. Cheese and meat made the pizza extra chewy and smoky. Enjoyed the pizza and also the penne which was very hot when served. Definitely flavourful. Remember to try out the Otto sauce (similar to Tabasco) but is their inhouse sauce. Spicy yes but full of fragrant !👌🏻 Pizza: 4/5 Penne: 3.5/5 Would come again for their other pizzas next time ! Parking is a hassle in this area as its located pretty close to Chulia Street, where theres plenty of tourists around

    Pizza 5 stars amazing big and delicious it was 38 I liked it so much I came back for dinner and had the seafood pasta. It was very delicious but very small and it was the same price as the pizza!! I ate it in a few minutes and left still hungry. Not a good deal at all and a ripoff imo for the same price of a delicious pizza that stuffed me I got an almost identical pasta the day before at another restaurant and it was only 18, 20 less than this one same size and pretty much identical yet less than half price!! so that other place is a much much better deal when it comes to pasta it’s called little march I do not recommend pasta here but the pizza i do and was awesome

    My family were craving for pizza and found this restaurant on google. Given its high rating, we decided to give it a try. True to its past reviews, service and food are 5 star! Best (mushroom truffle) risotto i have tasted in years! Pizza were good too. The chef/owner who came out to take our order is very friendly and accomodated to our request to make thin crust pizza.

    Was interested to try out the food here after reading the reviews. It was Friday late afternoon ~4pm there were no dine in customers, just those who pick up orders. Menu choices offered mainly pizzas but had pasta and ravioli as well. Price range RM28-RM50 per pizza. I ordered the margherita pizza and affogato (Total RM42). There is no service charge. Pizzas had only one size (equivalent to medium sized pizza @ dominos or pizza hut). Overall taste good, pizza was a bit too salty for me. A bit disappointed with the few basil leaves on the pizza expected more basil, mozzarella was okay and it had thin crust. Eating it the traditional way from tip to crust, I could taste the tomato paste and a hint of oregano. Each table had oregano/chilli flakes/black pepper/olive oil for top up to your dishes. Affogato had the nice combination of coffee and vanilla ice cream.

    Most underrated pizza in town. Very nicely baked and served with good choice of spices. Mr Kesh has provided a great hospitality to me and my girlfriend while dining in their lovely restaurant in an alley.

    One of the best pizzas I've had in recent years, it might come off a bit pricey but it's definitely worth it. Taste-wise, it's absolutely fantastic. Will definitely be coming here often whenever I return to Penang.

    Many varieties of pizza choices, tried Pepperoni Pizza & Fungus & black truffle Risotto, both are good. Fried mozzarella is just okay, but definitely kids’ choice. Narrow heritage lot which only fits few tables, but overall dining experience is good.

    It was a take out, but I got to take a closer look at the place. Since the previous comments from other users about the heat from the oven, the place seems to have undergone some minor renovations, with a wall separating the dining area with the oven. There are a few tables good for small groups or family. The food is a hit or miss for me, with some flavours better than some. Service was good. Paid parking is very limited, and traffic here can be bad at times.

    Pizza burrata- liked the burrata but definitely not on the pizza. Cold on hot and pizza underneath is soggy and cold. Pizza Hawaiana fared better though the tomato sauce was very mild and slightly salty. I do like the crust and dough. Homemade lemonade is a win. Staff was friendly. Pricey for locals but not so for tourists.

    Service is fast. The pizza tastes so good. I have ordered a chef recommend pizza. Though there won't be the long pulling cheesy string when u take the pizza, but I promise the taste is real good. Place is a bit small. Fully aircon. Price is reasonable.

    Go here for authentic Italian Pizza in Georgetown. Soft dough and crispy crust. Tomato sauce nicely done.. thick tomatoey with sweetness from cherry tomatoes. Buffalo mozzarella and basil leafs complete the dish. Lasagna a bit on the dry side. Worth coming back to try other types of pizza.

    Great food & ambience. The burrata pesto was delicious. Tiramisu was nice. Muslim friendly food, great place to chill and hang out

    Otto is famous for pizzas, but I highly encourage everyone to try everything in the menu. The Calzone, Risotto, even the steak is excellent. Please be warned that their portion is huge, I made a mistake by ordering too much .If you could still eat , try their crème brulee too~☺️.

  • 4/5 arly 10 months ago on Google
    Their pizza is way different than what we’re used to eat in fast-food places like Pizza Hut and Dominos, it’s way better! Loved the crispy crust and tasty tomato sauce. Would be nicer if there was music playing in the restaurant while I’m eating 👍🏻

  • 2/5 Kevin N. 2 years ago on Google
    Fast service and serve nice pizzas. However, their customer service need to improve as they have difficulty to explain their menu. A bit pricey for a simple pizza

  • 5/5 Nurul J. 5 months ago on Google
    The food was nice with a big portion👏🏼👏🏼 the place was bit small to dine in but it still worth the visit ❤️

  • 5/5 Emily C. 1 year ago on Google
    The pizza here is to a really high standard and served very hot/fresh. We made slight amendments to our dishes and these were served correctly. Rahim was working single-handedly however the wait time was not long and he was really welcoming and helpful. Would highly recommend this small restaurant.

  • 5/5 calvin k. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the pizza. After tried this, I quit eating fast food pizza like domino and pizza hut. Neapolitan pizza is much better than those, they use better dough which has taste and texture.

  • 5/5 doris l. 2 years ago on Google
    I tried OTTO Pizza - it has an authentic taste of the pizzas you get in Italy as the ingredients used are all imported. The pizzas, pasta, and the Italian Fried Set are delicious. Service is prompt and the pizza guys are friendly.

    I have bring my family to eat Italian pizza but the space is small n we lucky enough to hv seat for 6 of us. We had best pizza, love the Italian cheese n very different taste. I would definitely would go back again to try more...

    Hands down one of the best pizzas in Penang! Definitely recommend you to try their turkey and mushroom pizza :D

  • 5/5 Syahiirun S. 3 years ago on Google
    I've tried 3 different pizzas from Otto Pizza, all were good quality pizzas. Looking forward to try more soon.

  • 2/5 Benny K. 3 years ago on Google
    Let's us start with what we like - the cheese is good enough. However here are what we completely disappointed, a) stone oven pizza should be more fluffy and some charcoal burn b) the dough is completely not Italian store and under season c) Napoli pizza is terrible. I cannot believe it is done by an Italian. It is unacceptable at all. Taken on one Sunday afternoon.

  • 5/5 Dawn K. 2 years ago on Google
    What’s better than pizza? Pizza with generous amount of cheese of course! These pizzas definitely brought the authenticity of Italy to Penang! Pizza Burrata - cutting into the burrata was extremely satisfying, with its stretchy creamy goodness pouring out its flavour onto the pizza. Every bite of the pizza had the richness of tomato sauce, smokiness of beef brisket and crunchiness of rocket leaves. Pizza Margherita - nothing like a good basic pizza to make the day better! Loved how much cheese they were on the pizza!

  • 5/5 Cynthia Wei Wei O. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice! Their signature otto pizza is real amazing! Would like to try their other pizza next time

  • 5/5 I’m A. 2 years ago on Google
    We have tried their new flavor- Pizza Calabrase Spicy. If you are a spicy food lover, you will definitely love it!

😠 I reached at around 2:30pm and still need to queue till 3:00 pm. Disappointed with the food because the deep fried fish roe and fish are hard rather than crispy. The gravy is also so so only.

👍 Queue seemed quite long when we arrived around 2.30 pm but we only waited about 20 minutes. I think they should have more signage to tell customers what to do so the process can be easier. There was only one waiter upstairs in the seating area so it was quite difficult to get his attention. Food is...
