Everything was amazing. The Newly renovated space is minimalistic without lacking a thing. Music was great. Our favorite thing was the Caesar salad. Nathan was our server. Nathan was very friendly, knowledgeable of the menu and attentive. Definitely stop in and at least try a Punch and a Kick it is a delightful rum based drink with pineapple & orange juice, mango nectar and grenadine.

I like the new redesigned bar and restaurant. It looks very nice. I was hoping this bar was part of the lobby bar, but it is separated and not as warm and friendly because the cool crowd is in the lobby. If I could change one thing, I would try to integrate the two bars into one in the lobby area.

We had such an amazing evening out! What a beautiful restaurant/ bar. The drinks were incredible and the food as well and our Server/ Bartender Shaun was incredible!!!! He went above and beyond to make our dinner special. He is an asset to your team! The server and host was also extremely professional and very kind. We will definitely be back!

We dinned in for Father’s day and the hostess was very welcoming. We were seated quickly and accommodated above and beyond expectations. The new design is elegant and gives an intimate feel while being family friendly. Our experience was great from the service to the food. It left the taste of fine dining in my mouth.

A very nice refresh of the old Octagon restaurant within the Mystic Marriott. Service and atmosphere was great, but food was just ok. Portions were on the small side for the price, and most sides were ala cart. I had the Helmsman Alfredo, which was just average. My wife had the hot lobster roll, and the bread was stale and the lobster was not very fresh tasting. Friend had the salmon, but it was just a small portion of salmon on top of a few stalks of asparagus. Service was a bit slow, despite being not busy on a Thursday night. Ok place, but would not go out of the way to eat here regularly.
