Othello's Italian Restaurant is a classic Norman establishment, offering a blend of traditional and unique Italian dishes. The cozy patio area and live music create a great atmosphere for celebrations or a night out. The food is outstanding, with generous portions perfect for sharing. Recommended dishes include the famous baked ziti with mushrooms and Don's Rigatoni. While parking can be a challenge, the management handles it efficiently, and the service is consistently good.
The restaurant offers a fun and lively atmosphere, with features like an etch-a-sketch and coloring books for kids. The pizza is a standout, with perfectly flavored onions and a delicious red sauce. The meatball sandwich is also a hit. Although some dishes, like the mushrooms, could use adjustments, the overall dining experience is positive.
Othello's is known for its lovely, traditional Italian ambiance, with candles and Dean Martin music playing in the background. The eggplant parmesan special is a popular choice, and the Florentino ravioli in a wine and cream sauce is a unique and enjoyable option. The attentive service adds to the overall positive experience.
The owner, Jennifer, is hands-on and often seen helping behind the bar, running food, and greeting guests. Chef Andy is also known for his willingness to customize dishes to meet customers' cravings. The homemade coconut cream pie is a must-try dessert.
