The meatballs in the appetizer were very dry. The pork chop Milanese was not a Whole breaded, pork chop, but thinly sliced pork, covered with breadcrumbs. It tasted of burnt breadcrumbs and the pork was dry and tasteless. It was awful. To be fair my wife liked the brussels sprout appetizer, which she had as a main course, which was brought to her with my appetizer despite her telling them it was for her main course. We will not be going back here again.

Honestly, Adam and Laura were absolutely exceptional. We couldn’t be more grateful for their service and the way they treated the birthday girl tonight. Adam delivers emaculate service while Laura was so attentive and wonderful. If you want to have a bday here, do it because they go above and beyond for you. We will definitely be back.

Stumbled into this place and had a great meal. Amazing drinks and pizza! The steak was cooked perfectly with delicious broccoli. The pizza was great!

While the service was great, my party of 3 were not too enthused with our pizzas. The sauce felt watery and lacking flavor, and the crust was on the harder side.

What a lovely lovely spot! Dined here with couple of friends on a Saturday evening. Everything from start to finish was very good and fresh. We ordered arancini (corn and chives, yummy), Parmesan tossed green beans, cauliflower crust zucchini flower pizza with fresh burrata on top and pesto sauce drizzled, mushroom and margarita pizzas with anchovies on top. All dishes were very good, pizzas were well cooked, drinks were good. They have a big vermouth menu. Spritzers are well priced like $10, and good selection of natural and biodynamic wines too. Service was very good, professional and lovely. They let us sit and dine comfortably without any pressures given for 3 hours! Love the atmosphere! Thank you!

Ottava is our go-to for amazing pizza and solid cocktails. Personal favorite is the Salsiccia Pizza!

Pleasant experience overall. We ordered the pollo salad, tuna tartare and patata pizza. Beautiful presentation, but seemed to lack seasoning/sauce. Otherwise, the service and atmosphere were great.

Probably one of the worst dining experiences of my life. We decided to come to Park slope to check out any spots to eat and found Ottava.
We went inside, we were greeted by the waitress with “Can I help You? ”and the waitress said to us that the restaurant was closing and that she needed to take our order right away. She sat us outside, put the menus on the table and didn’t come back till 20 minutes later to take our order. We kept looking in the window to see where she was, and all we can see is the bartender on his phone the entire time. She came back and said “this is last call, so no more orders”, pretty rude if you ask me. The whole time we felt as we were being rushed out. She came back with our pizza and salad and look confused on where to place it on the table and awkwardly kept moving our glasses with her fingertips on the rims. The pizza barely had any toppings and was undercooked. The kale salad had too many salty components, no dressing, and was missing something to balance the salty flavor.
. She didn’t come back for 30 minutes to check on us. Finally did with the check, didn’t say thank you, or nothing. But of course she came back right away the second time to make sure we were ready to leave. Very rude.

I saw a recent post about Ottava and thought it looked like a nice cocktail spot to check out.
I went on a Thursday lunch date with my fiancee and ordered a couple of their specialty cocktails and the flatbread.
In terms of cocktails: the menu is very specialized and caters to more spirit-forward enjoyers. Many of the drinks contained two liqueurs on top of the base spirit, which is ok to some, but I’m not a fan so I took a while to order to see what cocktail would best suit my tastes (1 base spirit + fruit/herbs instead of liqueurs).
Whatever I ended up choosing was too spirit-forward and too bitter for my taste— I should’ve read the ingredients more carefully.
My fiancee ordered a pineapple cocktail, which was very sweet, but more refreshing than mine.
We’ll need to give this bar another shot with different drinks since the ambience is a gorgeous sunlit room.

Cozy local pizza spot in Park Slope, on the corner of a bustling intersection. Perfect spot to sit outside and enjoy the beauty of Park Slope on a warm summer evening.

I really like this restaurant. Very attractive room. Staff is nice. Very good cocktails. I'll be honest, I don't love the pizza, but the St. Eve's burger is outstanding.

Excellent drinks, great pizza ranging from classic to adventurous. Almost always easy to get a seat but never empty. Perfect spot

I got the fungi pizza. I was disappointed to find that the pizza didn’t hold up and was kinda soggy. It also could have been more flavorful. The cheese on top of it didn’t have so much taste. The whole thing was underwhelming. My friend got the beet salad which was fairly small but tasty. I’m not sure I’d come back.
