The Otto Woo Story

'The original Otto Woo was established in Ponsonby, Auckland in January 2000. The idea came from thinking about "what would we like?" What kind of food, what kind of place, what kind of service and what kind of people would we like to workwith?

The net result was Otto Woo.

The Otto Woo brand -- beautifully understated, stands for healthy, fresh and funky food. Otto Woo provides western style modern Asian cuisine, with a strong Japanese and Thai influece. Each meal contains loads of daily fresh vegetables and meat, also high quality sauce and ingredients ----- tasty as well as healthy. No pre-cooked or processed meat is used, MSG is never added.

The management team was overwhelmed by the success of Otto Woo as quickly built up a strong and loyal client base, in the face of some of the toughest competition in New Zealand. It soon became a popular place to frequent for the local and distance professionals. At that time there were no other New York style noodle bar of its type.

Otto Woo has won many best noodle bar and best gourmet takeout awards. A successful formula had been developed, and from there was the vision to open more Otto Woo Gourmet Noodle Bars throughout Auckland.

Otto Woo Gourmet Noodle Bars are now in three popular locations - Ponsonby, Newmarket, Mission Bay (just opened)
