OTTO’s new South Boston location will have its grand opening on Monday, March 2nd.  

Located at 416 W Broadway in the vibrant South Boston neighborhood, this brand new location will be the first OTTO to feature a “mobile pickup” option, allowing customers to order any menu item (including single slices, whole pies, salads, apps, desserts, and beverages) and skip the wait entirely.  

Nestled just behind Caffe Nero and across from Lincoln Tavern and Restaurant, this location will provide South Bostonians quick and convenient access to the “Best Pizza by the Slice” (Yankee Magazine) and one of “The Greatest Pizzas in the USA” (Food Network).

In addition to takeout service, OTTO Southie will feature a slice counter, indoor seating, and catering services. OTTO looks forward to becoming a part of the growing, vibrant South Boston neighborhood, and working with local community organizations as part of our ongoing ‘Good Food, Good Causes’ fundraising program. 

OTTO Southie is OTTO’s eighth outpost in Massachusetts (coming on the heels of OTTO’s first airport location, at Boston Logan International), and 15th location overall. 

Open Sunday through Thursday from 11am-12am and Friday-Saturday from 11am-1am.  Entrance is on F Street, directly behind Caffe Nero, and across the street from Loco Taqueria and Oyster Bar. 

OTTO Partners with FEED KIDS and Cooking Matters to combat food insecurity

At OTTO, we strongly believe in investing in our communities, and are proud to support a variety of causes and local organizations. Since we opened our doors in 2009, we’ve worked with over 500 organizations – from hosting fundraisers, to sponsoring teams, and handing out pizza to 5k participants – giving back is an important part of what we do.

As OTTO continues to grow and expand into new communities, we are continuously redefining the ways in which we give back. It is important that we are intentional and impactful with our reach, and that we’re able to align our core values with our giving. As a restaurant, one issue that is extremely important to us is food insecurity. We believe that no child should ever go hungry, and that families, schools, and communities should have the tools and resources to combat food insecurity. We’ve recently partnered with organizations in Maine and Massachusetts which aim to do just that – end child hunger in our communities, and provide families with the resources to connect them to healthy and affordable food options. Starting March 1, OTTO will be donating $1 from every monthly special pizza sold to FEED KIDS in Maine, and to Cooking Matters in Massachusetts.

Full Plates, Full Potential – FEED Kids

Full Plates, Full Potential is an organization dedicated to ending child hunger in Maine. “[Their] work focuses on increasing participation in school breakfast, after school meals, and summer meal programs.” We are proud to say that we are now one of their FEED KIDS Partners, and will be donating $1 of every monthly special pizza sold in Maine to Full Plates, Full Potential.

Cooking Matters MA

Cooking Matters is a campaign developed by Share Our Strength; a nonprofit that aims to end poverty and hunger. More specifically, Cooking Matters aims to end childhood hunger by “inspiring families to make healthy, affordable food choices. [Their] programs teach parents and caregivers with limited food budgets to shop for and cook healthy meals.” Cooking Matters helps connect low-income families with the tools and resources to prepare healthy food on a budget. OTTO will donate $1 of every monthly special pizza sold in Massachusetts to Cooking Matters.
