    Hookah was supposed to be free waitress ended up charging me for that. I noticed the bill was $300+ for brunch. I asked for a print out of the receipt. She then took the hookah off as well as the nasty oysters. I also learned that during happy hour everything was supposed to be half off after we left which it wasn’t. My lamb chops were cooked well after I requested them medium. They also lacked any Flavor at all. Drinks were ok could’ve been better. I wouldn’t go back to this establishment.

    Horrible service, only there for 2 mins & they charged for valet and refused services due to someone in the group not having an ID but refused to refund for valet services!

    Just wanted to share my recent experience at Octopus Kitchen. We arrived early for our reservation, but it took almost 30 minutes to get seated. Seriously, what’s the point of a reservation if you can’t honor it? We ordered some appetizers and drinks to celebrate kick off our date night, but I was super disappointed when things didn’t go as expected. The vibe wasn’t even packed, yet we were rushed out with a 90-minute table rule. I felt like we barely had time to enjoy our meal! The food definitely didn’t match the stunning pictures online, and the service was just plain horrible. All in all, not what I hoped for on a special night out.

    Reservations mean nothing at this restaurant. Once you get there get in line as soon as possible. Also Valet is pretty much mandatory.

    I booked a reservation and proceeded within 10 minutes.. the kicker though was they sat us down to a table that rocked so bad we asked to be seated somewhere else..Nope a guy came out with a match book and put it under the table.. plus the had us sit so close to the other table that we was bumping arms with people we didn’t even know we just got up and left.. and paid 22.00 dollars in parking fo a 10 min stay because of service..

    No complaints with staff just not good food ! Nothing seems authentic the kitchen reminds me of a hole in the wall bar kitchen. Everything was microwavable.

    We went to have Octopus. 1st I ordered beer. They had no draft and only corona. But they was out of that. We ordered octopus and the waitress came back and said that they was out of octopus! Really! Octopus is in your name and u don’t have any! We canceled or order and left. Ridiculous.

    They seated us at dirty tables, waitress had an attitude and barely checked on us to see if we needed anything, took us 20 minutes to get utensils to eat with our food smhh. Then I ordered the “Surf n Turf” and my steak was undercooked , asked to get it cooked more they said that the kitchen was closed and was too late to. Save your money or go somewhere else.
