Temporary signage has gone up on the exterior of a corner unit at 180 Giralda in the Gables for what is apparently a new restaurant called Otto. But beyond that, details are scarce.
The space was previously the home to the 77 Sports Bar, which closed last year. It’s been vacant and available for lease until recently when the Otto signs went up.
There is an LLC behind the project — the Otto Hospitality Group — but so far, no contact information, no website, and no social media that we can find.
No word on what the theme or cuisine will be at Otto. The most famous Otto in Coral Gables we can think of it Otto G. Richter, the ardent University of Miami supporter who has the campus’ main library named after him. But that would be a funny theme for a restaurant.
We’ll keep trying to reach folks at the Otto Hospitality Group and report back when we get more info.
