Overall
  • Booking lacks something to be desired, but great place for unknown talent to be heard.
  • Thanks for a great place -
  • My Favorite Everything!
  • Tiki bars and rock n roll are my fav and this place doesn't disappoint.
  • A great place to start your hangover
  • This place is the best!
  • A friendly and unique spot amongst all the boring cookie-cutter bars that have taken over the area.
  • It is a great place for people of all kinds to sit down, hear some swingin' tunes
  • The place is great.
  • BEST PLACE FOR A BIRTHDAY PARTY!
  • it's one of the last cool places to hang out in the East Village or all of NYC for that matter.

Food
  • awesome bar & greatest bartender
  • I showed up at their door after the demise of the Korova Milk Bar
  • Awesome Bar!
  • Otto's is a lovely little tiki bar in the East Village where you can go to enjoy the music
  • Lots of bands and awesome drinks....GREAT drinks.
  • Helps that Mishelle Meow (the hot, fiery red-haired bartender) makes the best margarita ever!
  • made beautiful drinks with fancy straws and umbrellas all night!
  • The drinks are top-notch, I even was tempted by my bartender to try one of the weird tiki cocktails.
  • The best thing about Otto's besides the cold beer, sweet drinks and awesome bartenders, is the fact
  • The last of a dying breed of great rock bars with a take no $&*t bartenders that serve up mean drinks with meaner attitudes....Tiki vibe is great for parties and I was there for a birthday party where big flaming drinks knocked me on my butt!
  • The drinks are pretty cheap, unless they are the insane TIKI DRINKS
  • After slurring back our order to us, she pours the wrong drinks.
  • Every inch of the long narrow space screams kitschy tiki bar....Every night, you'll find friendly bartenders and potently sweet tiki drinks.
  • Great bar, there just aren't enough grungy punk tiki bars in the city anymore.
  • Great music, great drinks, and thankfully the meat heads and yuppie-hipsters that troll the East Village on weekends are too scared to venture in.
  • if you want killer creative drinks, rockabilly and punk attitude, awesome retro dj's, and way out acts in the back.
  • A great bar with a dirty atmosphere that spins perfect tunes.
Service
  • Staff was very friendly -
  • The Worst Service in NYC
  • The bartender working the days I go is a sassy redhead (Mishelle) that's easy on the eyes and quick on the pour.
  • It's actually awesome to see people noticing the effort put into the crowd to have a good time there.
  • divey, swingin', & loud, (and boasting one of the finest bartenders on earth)
  • Best Bartenders and Drinks combination!
  • still run into interesting people, hear good music
  • The bartenders were friendly

  • Cool vibe, good music, great staff!
  • All of them are great people.
  • Every night, you'll find friendly bartenders and potently sweet tiki drinks.
