We had Ali's team at Otto handle the set up, clean up, bartending, and catering for our wedding reception and were impressed by their professionalism, attention to detail, flexibility, and excellent customer service! The food was also delicious and our guests only had great things to say! We needed a caterer that could operate without access to a full catering kitchen, but I would still pick Otto any day even if it wasn't for our catering kitchen limitations! Their outstanding food and service made our wedding day stress free and brought our dream wedding to life!

Otto's food is great, and a perfect fit for a group of guests with varied dietary restrictions-- the buffet allows you to accommodate carnivores, vegans, gluten intolerance, and allergies safely and deliciously! Beyond that, Ali (the owner) was the most conscientious and responsive vendor we had for our wedding, and he and his staff did an exceptional job, day of and before. He was the first person we talked to once we had a venue.
Also, get the shrimp. Just do it.

From the very beginning, Ali and his team were true professionals—his attention to detail and generosity during the tasting floored us. What truly set them apart was their remarkable ability to accommodate special off-menu requests of foods that were important to our memory of Turkey. Each dish was carefully prepared and they were some of the best examples of the food we’ve ever had, in the US or in Turkey!
The serving staff were great and made us and our guests feel at ease. They served a buffet spread, but made sure to interact with each guest to explain to them what the food was and to reassure them they would like it. The bartenders did a great job of feeling out the night and adjusting drinks as necessary to the people who were asking.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking an outstanding Turkish catering experience that goes above and beyond expectations.

We recently had Otto Catering handle the catering, setup, bartending, and cleanup for our wedding, and they exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, the entire team displayed a wonderful attitude, and they went out of their way to make sure everything was absolutely perfect. Throughout the entire planning process, they were incredible helpful - from contract setup to menu selection, and even bringing up details I hadn’t considered. The food was absolutely delicious and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it!
In the day of the event, the team was professional, friendly, and attentive. They took care of everything seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy the day without worry. Their breakdown and cleanup were exceptional; they left the venue looking better than it did before they arrived. I cannot recommend Otto Catering highly enough for anyone planning a special event. They truly went above and beyond and we couldn’t be happier with our experience!!

Working with Ali from Otto's was a dream! He was extremely accommodating to our requests and worked with us to design the perfect menu for our wedding. Ali also worked very professionally with our coordinator and venue. All of our guests loved the unique experience of having Otto's food truck at our reception. And, of course, the food was absolutely delicous!

Ali and the team at Otto's were incredibly supportive and responsive to emails from the moment we approached them to cater our wedding to the day after it was over. The food was incredible of course, even for family that had never had Turkish food. Some of our guests even said it was the best falafel they'd ever had, and went back to eat with them at their restaurant the next day. Servers cleaned up between dinner and dessert and throughout the night, and my husband and I did not have to worry about taking out the trash or anything. Cannot recommend them enough!

I used Otto Turkish Streetfood for my wedding catering and I am so happy that I did! The food was so delicious and I had many guests say that it was the best wedding food they ever had. The team was very nice and everything was efficient. They staffed the event, did the set-up, ran my bar, provided the DELICIOUS food, and cleaned everything up afterwards. I cannot say enough good things about my experience and will definitely use them again in the future.

We just used Otto for our wedding catering (June 2024) and it was a wonderful experience. First off, when we met with Ali in person for the tasting a year prior, he was the consummate professional. He sat with us to go through all of our options, was very well prepared, and had great attention to detail. We felt very comfortable that everything would go smoothly on the day of the wedding. And I am burying the headline here when I say that the food was INCREDIBLE. So many of our wedding guests commented on how good the food was. It's a great option to provide both veg and non-veg options and will keep everyone happy. He also can provide bartenders, ice, alcohol (he provides wine, or you can buy your own), and is very adaptable to what you want. Ali was responsive, helpful, and understanding of our needs throughout the whole process and we can't recommend him highly enough!
