This place is worthy of a five star only if the meat tasted a tad bit better. So yesterday it's a beautiful afternoon in Toronto where we had a perfectly cloudy day with little bit of drizzle here and there.
It was my day at the Kensington market and I wanted to eat and explore. I had also promised that I would try some new places apart from my regular joints and Otto's had been on my list for a very long time.
So basically this is middle eastern food which is Canadian-zed wonderfully.This place is tucked in the adventurous street Augusta.The decor is minimalistic with a great patio at the entrance.A visit to their bathrooms are a must-DON'T FORGET TO PRESS THE BUTTON IN THEM.
So coming down the food.I loved loved their idea of serving donars on this thin split open bread which kind of reminds me of an Afghan sangak unlike in a plain old pita.I chose the veal and lamb donar, for me the sandwich was just perfect with all its generous toppings and sauces but I felt the meat lacked flavor and was too thinly sliced.Maybe next time I shall try another meat.The highlight to my meal were their fries, almost tasted like homemade fries-they weren't overly crispy but were very flavorful.
They have a decent selection of alcoholic beverages as well as non alcoholic.I like the option of free water.
The service was friendly and quick.
