Otto Pizza

Since 2009, Otto has set the standard for pizza in southern Maine, winning national accolades for its perfectly chewy crust and topping combinations that go well beyond the ordinary. “The Masher”—mashed potatoes, bacon, and scallions—is one of Otto’s most popular pies, scarfed down by the slice by late-night noshers at Portland’s two Congress Street slice counters. With the latest opening in Saco, Otto now has seven locations in Maine (plus six in Massachusetts). All serve beer and wine, and some locations offer cocktails as well.
