Otto's High Dive

The Write-Up

The full story

Otto's High Dive is a vintage-inspired Milk District rum bar with Bib Gourmand recognition and a dim, greenery lined room built for date night. The cocktails are the star of the show, daiquiris by the pitcher and a Cuba Libre on tap, while the kitchen answers with ropa vieja, lechon asado and a shrimp cocktail guests rave about. Raw and baked oysters, cinnamon bread pudding and orange tres leches cake round out a menu with real Havana soul.
