Brunch at Otto Pizzeria in NYC

Went to Otto Pizzeria with my parents and Dan.  We ordered a little too much but it was fine because we took the leftovers home.  We had a nice variety of apps, pizza and pasta.  Everything was pretty good though nothing extraordinarily memorable.  I think Eataly is better but much more stressful getting a rezzie.
All the seafood apps (L to R) + Lentils Toscana (green lentils, fennel, onion, parsley, chianti vinegar, evoo); Baccala Pizzaiola (house cured cod, roasted red pepper, red onions, capers, marjoram, fillone breadcrumb, evoo); Octopus (octopus confit, celery, lovage, lemon, eeoo); Anchovies with breadcrumbs and scallions; Mussels with roasted red peppers, agrodolce, fresh chili, red onion, garlic and bay leaf) and Seppia con acetini (charred seppia, pickled peppers, ramps and fennel).  All were good but the octopus was my fav

Baby Spinach, Ricotta Salata and Truffle Honey with fillone breadcrumbs, evoo, and lemon

Potato, Anchovy and Ricotta pizza.  I think this would've been better with melty mozz and then ricotta in addition

Can't recall what this pasta dish was that Dan got

Pasta Alla Norma - tomato, roasted eggplant, basil and bufala ricotta.  My dad thought the pasta wasn't cooked enough.  Unfortunately Mario Batali really likes things al dente

Funghi and Taleggio pizza.  My mom thought it was okay
