A little corner of Italy in the heart of Essex.

Welcome to Otto, an Italian restaurant, pizzeria and cafe. Our menu includes authentic fresh pasta dishes, classic Italian desserts and Neapolitan pizza. We’re open as a cafe during the day, serving breakfast followed by our restaurant menu and focaccia sandwiches. Whether you’re joining us for your morning coffee, a relaxed lunch or a cocktail and charcuterie with friends, Otto is here to welcome you.

RESTAURANT

Our restaurant showcases the best of traditional Italian cooking with a modern twist.

Our menu has a variety of starters and salads, a wide range of pasta dishes, and classic Italian desserts.

We only use fresh pasta. Every dish is made to order, no pre-made sauces, just ingredients in a pan with olive oil and pasta water to create an emulsion.

 

We serve Neopolitan-style pizzas, made using dough made from Dallagiovana 00 flour and proofed for a minimum of 24 hours. Our toppings are imported from Italy, which gives our pizzas a refined and authentic taste.

CAFE

Experience a dedication to doing food the right way! When we say "from scratch", we mean it! We make everything ourselves; from the sourdough for brunch to the mayo used in our panini and focaccia sandwiches.

 

Making everything ourselves means we don't have to use ultra-processed foods, preservatives or additives. We focus on provenance and finding the best ingredients to let the food speak for itself!

We serve breakfast until 11:30 (until 14:00 on Sunday) followed by our focaccia and restaurant menu from 12:00 to 15:00 (Wednesday to Saturday).
