An etch a sketch and personal coloring books with bad ass crayon packs!! Yes please. These kids loved those first thing.

Food..well pizza was stunning, those onions were perfectly flavored! The red sauce was on point! The meatball sandwich my man loved! The stuff we didn't love I won't mention, chose on your own accord! The mushrooms could use less cheese a d more garlic :)

Terrible service. Worst I’ve ever had in my life. I dont ever leave reviews but had to because of how ass this place was. My food was inedible and my boyfriends was bland and watery. Do not go here.

The food was 'meh' and I was not impressed with their menu choices. The atmosphere is relaxing and our server was very nice.

Staff was great! Food, not so much. Some only got 4 Ravioli and all sauce, other was dry and others said theirs had no flavor.

The only reason it’s a 3 is because our server was quite nice. Otherwise, not really a fan of this place.

Mozzarella sticks are the EXACT same ones they serve at Arby’s.

The house bread is quite bad, just a baguette with butter and seasoning left out to dry for far too long.

Got a large pizza with pepperoni, and the sauce tastes too much like marinara (sweet) to be on pizza. Final bill was atrociously high for how mediocre the food is. Waiter was nice though, but not really a fan of the food.

A good Italian restaurant at campus corner in Norman. A lovely fun atmosphere, with candles and traditional "Italian" music playing in the background. That really just means Dean Martin singing. We dined on a Tuesday and their special of the day was buy one get one eggplant parmesan or any other parmesan. Great to take one for lunch the next day. It was delicious with a really good red sauce. Also ordered was the Florentino ravioli. It was a wine and cream sauce. First time order for me and I enjoyed the ravioli more than the sauce. We were served by a wonderfully attentive server. High marks. Seemed a low key fun place to eat dinner with friends.

I highly recommend, if in Norman, you stop by Othello’s. Not just for the food, although it is delicious, the atmosphere is awesome live music. The staff is amazing, the owner, Jennifer is hands on and you often see her helping behind the bar, running food, greeting and talking to guest. Chef Andy is happy to come to your table. Talk to you about what it you are cravings and it if it’s not on the menu, he’ll even go back there and make it for you.
They have the best homemade coconut cream pie you’ll ever have.?

THIS IS NOT A SAFE ENVIRONMENT NOR A FAMILY FRIENDLY RESTAURANT!!!!!
I came here with a friend today. We were both excited to be coming to Othellos for dinner but that excited quickly turned into dissatisfaction. We were greeted, led to our seats, and given menus. It didnt take long to be seated because there were hardly any other customers in the building. Instead of a server taking our order we were very rudely greeted by an aggressive "manager" who demanded that we leave. When we asked why, she lowered here tone of voice, treated us like she was talking to toddlers, and insisted that the other customers (who were completely on the opposite side of the restaurant) had been complaining about my friend, despite the fact that we had only just arrived. She insisted that she thought my friend was homeless with absolutely no reason to think so and absolutely no evidence to back her hateful discriminatory claims. This is not the first time this restaurant has hatefully insisted that a housed person is homeless as I have witnessed them do it several times.

Don’t normally rate things but me and my aunt just came in for dinner we were seated and that was it. No one came to get our drink order or anything so we left after 30 minutes of just sitting there.

Very unprofessional and rude service provided directly from the 'owner'

Completely messed up my $60usd delivery order. 'Owner' said it was due to her 16 year old hs student hire and refused to redeliver proper order.

Food was about as authentic as my Jewish mother cooking 'Italian'.

Don't waste your time. Go enjoy proper Italian at Volare or Benvenuti's!
