The Otter is a spacious restaurant in Soho with an art deco style and a unique nautical atmosphere that has a 50s feel. It is a good choice for larger groups. The menu features dishes like halibut, lobster roll, and steak, with inventive options that are reliably good. Diners highly recommend the sautéed squid, wedge salad with crabmeat and wasabi dressing, and the lump crab salad. The lobster roll is noted as divine, with some calling it the best they have ever had. For dessert, the pistachio tiramisu and Boston Cream Pie are popular choices. While some diners found the halibut to be bland and dry, many enjoy the delicious scrambled eggs with roe. The Otter is known for its friendly service and celebratory touches, including a selection of three different butters with the brioche and champagne for special occasions. Despite its charm, the restaurant can feel a bit empty, a common issue for hotel restaurants. The patio offers a lovely, quiet place to sit, making it a great option for brunch.
