Their Maine Seered Scallops were excellent. The waitress was very friendly and it was a pleasure to talking with you Steve. I'll be back soon!

Opentable Diner

Young waitstaff not very attentive, forgot several things. Food was ok but not great with the exception of the lamb and the pasta was delicious. Otherwise both chicken and fish were dry. Would not return.

Great dinner with our daughters and her friends while visiting Colby (Go mules!). Oysters were excellent and salads are huge. Filet was good and chicken dishes were all excellent. Really liked the green beans as well. Nice wine options by the glass or bottle. Nice place not too far from campus.

Oysters had no brine in them. Lobster stew had no lobster. Had to ask for them to put some in. Green beans not cooked. Best thing about this place is Sue. She was nice but food was not that good. I’m not a fan

This was my first experience and my last. my wonderful man reserved 2 weeks ago for a special Valentines Dinner. Our server was amazing but the roast prime rib was cold, so tough, and tasted just awful. The dining area was beautiful though!

We love Otto's! It has been our go to restaurant for a few years now. The service is great and the food amazing!

Wish that you would not have asked. Guinness was not cold, steaks were overcooked. Lobster was overcooked. The restaurant could not prove a credit card so we paid by cash. Rough experience.

Lovely place with a lovely atmosphere and a great menu with lots of options. Loved the French onion soup and the chocolate mousse, and the drinks were so fun and festive :) would come again!

Otto's on the River is a must dine when I go home to visit the family. The food is always spectacular and the atmosphere cozy. New Year's Eve of all nights they had a computer glitch with reservations. It was managed with grace. The Otto's Crab Dip is amazing!

The place has a lot of big things. Pillars, lamps, 🍎 etc... but the food was not top notch for the price. I had stuffed haddock and the fish was very dry. The waiter didn't understand that I "did" indeed want the lobster sauce on it. 6-8 green beans and the mashed potatoes had a gummy taste. Our bill with tip was almost $300. Noone got mkt. price lobster. Refill on coffee and cranberry juice were charged the same as the first. ⚠️ 2 glasses of wine and they got served to the wrong people. OVERALL, I would NOT recommend 😒this place.

Seafood chowder is all I can say!! Haddock casserole is good too. The only thing I am disappointed about is that I was not able to try everything on their menu.
