Awesome people, service and food!! I've been stopping by after work on Thursdays to get a pizza and I have het to get a bad one!! Very delicious! I have also had the lasagna, which is awesome as well!! If you are in the mood for a great Italian dinner & atmosphere stop by Ottavio's! You won't be disappointed!
