Tier Achieved:
Mediocre energy. You'd probably do better cooking at home.
The epitome of "does the job." Safe enough, food's fine. But let's be honest — your kitchen's probably cleaner AND tastier.
Octaves is where your tastebuds go to have a chill day. The portions are massive, and if you can't find something you like, you might just be too picky. Kio was all about the curry goat, noting that it actually had potatoes—not just sad little chunks. The staff, especially Navaeh, makes you feel like royalty while you chow down. But let’s be real, it’s like a party where the food, while fun, doesn’t always know how to behave.
Expect some dishes to be a bit overdone, with the mac n' cheese being a potential heart attack waiting to happen. Still, if you’re after a good time without culinary finesse, this is your go-to. It's the ideal fuel stop for when your friends are more important than the food.
"MASSIVE portions, I had a platter so a bit of everything and everything was beautiful."
"I would highly recommend Octave and if you’re lucky and happen to be served by Naveah you’re in for a treat."
"The prawns were the best ones I’ve ever had and the atmosphere was so good."
