    We love going to Fried Green Tomatoes each year when we are in Galena for ladies weekend. This time was extra special with our server Avery. She made us feel so special and was great with my older mom who is also gluten free. Went out of her way to make the whole experience so wonderful. Also the food and drinks were amazing. Started with the fried green tomatoes appetizer and we each enjoyed our entrees immensely. I had the chicken piccata with linguine instead of potatoes, my mom had the sea scallops and sister in law had the cauliflower steak. Hope to have Avery again next year.

    Hadn’t been to Otto’s since 2013. It was so good I never forgot about it. I was pleased to see it was still open. Food was excellent and service from Spencer was excellent as well. It is a must to have breakfast &/or lunch if you’re in Galena!
