    Really nice atmosphere, the staff was attentive and very respectful. The soups and the appetizers were flavourful and tasty. The mains a bit different than I am used to but tasted good for the price. Overall fine dining with superb services but not at a fine dining price. Thank you everyone at The Octagon.

    The table side caesar salad was the best I’ve ever had! Their wine list is very affordable which is a bonus as well. The service was outstanding and very personal, but I’m just a little disappointed that no one addressed my husbands milestone birthday that I had put on the reservation
    The OctagonResponded on December 28, 2024
    Hi Sarah, we are glad you enjoyed the wine, the caesar salad and overall food, we are sorry to hear that nobody acknowledged your husband's birthday though. We will take this to the team to review. We hope your husband though had an overall good time with us and we do hope to see you again.

    Paul and Dimitri are amazing and very attentive to our needs. Food quality is always consistent and delicious. We’ve had caesar salad - super creamy and next to none, prime rib is cooked to perfection, steak and lobster are very good too. Our orders came with side vegetables, mashed potato, and baked potatoes… I wished we could eat more toast, I don’t know how it maintained its crisp and buttery taste all throughout our stay. I love them. Overall, we will be coming back and looking forward to enjoy their drinks next time.

    Caesar by the table is better than any other steakhouse. Busy night, they were off by 15% for service and food. Ordered medium, got medium well. I'm sure it's a 5 when they're not at 110% booking during the holidays.
    The OctagonResponded on December 28, 2024
    Hi Ali, thank you for this wonderful review and feedback; we are so glad you enjoyed the Caesar and understand that we were very busy, although that is no excuse not to give you your 5-star dining experience. We will take this to the team and we do hope to see you again very soon!
