⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had the salmon pasta at Octopus and it was absolutely delicious! The salmon was perfectly cooked and the pasta was creamy, rich, and full of flavor—definitely one of the best I’ve had in a while. I also enjoyed a cocktail with my meal that was just as impressive—well-balanced, refreshing, and made with quality ingredients. The vibes were relaxed yet stylish, and the service was attentive and friendly. If you’re looking for a solid spot for great food and drinks, Octopus is it!

The experience overall was good. Parking was weird. Expect to pay $20/ for valet parking. They don’t offer any other option. It is on a corner lot and a little difficult to spot from the street. Be cautious when paying your tab. They do not mention that they add an automatic 20% gratuity to your tab, yet when they ask for your signature they will still display additional tip options ON TOP of the 20% gratuity already applied. The drinks are over-priced and if you want anything that’s not a house option you’re paying about $30 for a basic mixed drink. Other than that, the food is good. The food portions are worth the money. Not sure about much else. The service was good. The atmosphere is chill and cute. Does look super DIY in some spots but that doesn’t take away from the experience.

I really enjoyed Octopus Bar and Lounge it was very Central to the city although the parking isn't all that great once you find a place to park and you can make it inside there's ample seating if you sit at the bar they also provide free hookah the service is really good and they were friendly the food was on par for what you would expect for a place like this however don't let that deter you. The drinks are top-notch is definitely a place where I would go again

So I came here for my birthday on a solo mission since this place is in my backyard. I was pleasantly surprised at how beautiful it is in the inside. Dess was my hostess and she really did a phenomenal job. She recommended the best food & took my photos. I received complimentary hookah & bubbly . It was really awesome. This is the most important part. I left my purse behind for 5 hours before I realized. I called up there & sure enough Dess said yes you left it behind. I went back to get it & everything was all there. They have a loyal & returning client in me. I’ll tell everyone I know about you all. I pray nothing but eternal blessings over you all and your establishment.

I enjoyed my meal at Octopus Kitchen. The vibe was nice for brunch. All the food came out so fast and it was seasoned well. I had the shrimp and grits with the truffle fries. Our server was Ace she was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed with quickness. I will be visiting again!!

If you’re craving seafood done right, the crab leg combo I had was absolutely worth every bite. The crab legs were perfectly steamed—juicy, tender, and bursting with that natural sweetness only fresh crab can deliver. They cracked open with ease, making the whole experience smooth and satisfying. Ace was an awesome server! She made sure all my request were met! Thanks ACE!!
