Excellent Italian cuisine restaurant. We tried their five course set-menu and it was extremely well crafted. I must say that the taste of the food was amazing. The service was quick and the quality of dishes was top-notch. I would recommend everyone to try their set-menu as that gives you varied options compared to ordering individual dishes. The quantity is more than enough for one person in a five course set menu. Must visit place if you want to try modern Italian cuisines.
Do not forget to try their cauliflower dark chocolate soup. It a must try soup in the option. Also the pumpkin Ravioli.
Excellent food... The ambience was great... everything tasted so good, they add loads of butter to all the dishes so if you do not like butter you need to tell them when you place the order itself
Ottimo still remains the go to restaurant for fine dine Italian. Went to celebrate my birthday and the entire team did a fabulous job. Right from being seated, to suggestions made by the chef, and course wise immersion into flavours, tastes, and textures. Each dish was a sight to behold. There was a truffle festival in progress and I took the time to partake in this delicacy.
Simply the beat Italian restaurant in Bangalore, had a great experience with family at Ottimo!!
Being an hard core Indian food lover, We never thought that we will enjoy Italian cuisine so much.
Chef Chirag, Ms. Ganga, Mr. Sukhjot from Butler’s team were extremely helpful & left no stone unturned for the best fine dining experience and special thanks to Mr. Manas (GM) for such a great experience.
Only Italian food style . Good ambience, you can take a course meal to explore main dishes . Great wine collection, recommended for Italian or non spicy food lovers . Not recommended for the spicy and masala food lovers.
Wow!!! It's one of the best place to go for the Italian cuisine. I loved the cauliflower chocolate soup, pumpkin ravioli and the tiramisu. The dining experience is amazing with very friendly staff and the chef. Loved everything!!!
Very good food, excellent service, very cordial and professional staff. All the customisations were taken very seriously. The starters, soups, main course and desserts- everything was fresh and delicious. A superb choice for meals with friends and family. Overall the experience was great!

Ottimo, which translates to ‘excellent’, is a signature Pan-Italian dining, that celebrates quintessential Italian dishes prepared from the finest local and imported ingredients.
I was hosted at Ottimo to taste the new menu, my tasting experience here was a unique blend of modern and contemporary cuisine combined, while ensuring the traditional elements of Italian cuisine were not compromised.
What an incredible dining experience at the Chef's Table. A beautiful setting, friendly, passionate staff, very talented and innovative chefs who prepared delicious courses for us. It was truly a remarkable evening.
The ambience and open kitchen concept encouraged us to interact with the chefs and taste unique ingredients.
Our Tasting started with Prosciutto melon (Salty cured sliced of pork with ricotta cheese and melon is a classic combo)
Burrata sour cherry, toasted almonds ( soft and creamy melt in your mouth burrata cheese with a hint of sour cherry and crunch almonds paired well with red wine)
Assortment of Italian breads served with basil pesto and roasted bell pepper pesto.
Zuppa cauliflower chocolate soup (creamy soup with a slight crunch from pine nuts and hint of chocolate)
Tortelli al Granchio con la sua Salsa (Homemade crab and mascarpone ravioli tossed with crab bisque and tomato).
I also tasted pumpkin ravioli which was very creamy.
Palate cleanser watermelon and mint sorbet
Almond crusted australian lamb with jerusalem artichoke, gin and juniper berry jus
Deconstructed Tiramisu (mascarpone and Savoiardi cookies, drenched in espresso) are all signatures dishes I got to enjoy. The exclusive Italian affair was exquisite and one of a kind.

Ottimo, the Italian specialty restaurant at ITC Gardenia, is definitely a class apart. Renowned for its wonderful Italian fare, the restaurant has recently launched a new menu. I visited Ottimo with a few foodie friends to check out this new menu, which turned out to be an absolutely brilliant meal.
We started with Burrata With Sour Cherries & Toasted Almonds, an innovative entree that was a right medley of sweet and salty and sour. The soft, salty burrata cheese and the sour berries were a match made in heaven! Alongside this, we sipped on a beautiful Guava, Orange & Black Pepper Mocktail specially designed by the bartender.
Next up was Cauliflower & Chocolate Soup - an unusual combination of ingredients, but an extremely well executed dish for sure. The soup was creamy and smooth, redolent with herbs and absolutely delicious. The drizzle of chocolate shavings on the soup bowl was just the perfect 'dressing' for it. A must-try at Ottimo, I would say!
We then proceeded to cleanse our palates with a very fresh and flavourful Watermelon & Basil Sorbet. It was time for the main course to be brought in!
The first dish presented to us as main course was Pumpkin Ravioli With Sage & Butter Sauce, a thing of supreme beauty and joy. The little pasta squares were filled with the most delicate, delicious pumpkin stuffing ever, presented in a mildly fragrant sauce. You must definitely try this out - it was the star of the meal for me.
We were presented with a decadent Marsala-Scented Risotto With Black Pepper Bread next, another beautifully executed dish. Everything about this dish oozed class and elegance, and the flavours matched right up.
Our meal ended with Tiramisu 2.0, a deconstructed version of the classic Italian dessert. As is the custom at Ottimo, the staff fed each of us the first bite of this dessert, which was an explosion of flavours in the mouth! Sheer bliss, this one was.
A meal at Ottimo is something I'd hugely recommend. It's pricey, yes, but the quality and taste of the food, the wonderful service and ambience more than make up for it.
One of the best Italian food I have ever had.
The chicken broth is elegant with balance and layered flavours. Delicate and well stuffed ravioli ( I tried 3 different ravioli dishes on different days) are a worth a special visit to this restaurant.
Amazing experience with ITC ottimo on my 4th anniversary. The team - chef Chirag, chef Gandharwa, chef Akash. Chef Jagvir and our servers Rose and Pratim made our night memorable with their service and food. Really would suggest this restaurant to anyone who wants good Italian food!

Had been there for dinner with family, had a good time with good food, good service and nice ambiance!
One of the top Italian restaurants in the country.
Great food. Enjoyed the course meal for vegetarians
A proper Italian restaurant! Loved their wine collections... Minestrone was good.. We tried the 🎃 pumpkin ravioli and the asparagus and sun dried 🍅 tomato risotto.. Both were just brilliant. Wrapped it up with some grappa.
Amazing dishes that you can pair with excellent wines. This isn't your local Little Italy folks. This is Italian food in its nicest suit, dressed up to go to cousin's wedding
Nice place for authentic Italian food. The food was nice and the ambience was also very very nice. The host was very nice and explained the specials and each dish in detail so that ordering was a breeze. The restaurant is very expensive though and not completely worth the money.
Wonderful and attentive waiters. Food was fresh and good. Ambience is top notch. Expensive but worth it.
