Too many smokers at terrace. Payment by credit card was inside and it was not clear. So we waited a long time. Baby calamari had too much garlic! Bad breath all afternoon

All the dishes we tried were very tasty and nicely presented. We, especially, liked the Octopus dishes, the fish and the last dessert ( variety of cakes, panna cota,…). Our waiter, Joris, was outstanding. Highly recommended!

Great spot right around the corner from our hotel. The ambiance of the restaurant was wonderful, and our waitress was very attentive. The grilled octopus was a little over done and the lobster in the ravioli could have been more moist. The sea bass was delicious as was the risotto. I'd go back.

Excellent food (fish and seafood), good portion sizes, and very welcoming and helpful staff. It is a bit out of the way but worth the ten-minute walk from the historical center. Perfect for a nice, quiet evening enjoying good seafood. Will go back!

My son invited me to the restaurant Octopus for lunch on Mother’s Day. We had a nice round table with a banquette seat. We chose a Passion juice spritz cocktail which had an excellent flavor of passion fruit. Also the prices of the cocktails in general were reasonable by Geneva standards. For starters we had scallops with artichoke cream (Saint-Jacques snackées, lard de colonnata, trio d’artichaut) and fried baby squid with mayonnaise and black lemon (Calamaretti frits, mayonnaise citron noir). Both dishes were original, very well presented and tasty. As main courses we chose a Turbot with asparagus (Turbot, asperges, salicornes, sauce cacahuète-miso) and octopus wood-fired grilled (Poulpe grillé au feu de bois, brocolini, olives leccinol, tomates séchées, ail) both were good. The highlight was the desert of a Bavarian cream in the shape of a small green apple with a basil filling (Comme une pomme verte, crème bavaroise, cœur basilic) truly delicate and memorable.
