Oktopussy Bar & Restaurant in Düsseldorf

We were there with a larger group and everyone really enjoyed it. Food, service, wine and the atmosphere were great! Thanks to the great team!

Very tasty food, but unfortunately a bit uncomfortable and loud. The staff was super friendly and tried hard. However, the seating (bar stools) and sitting close together with other guests are very uncomfortable.

Great service and great quality of food and drinks. Impressive wine list. Gladly again and again.

Very friendly welcome and a great atmosphere! The staff was attentive and sociable. The food was excellent: beef tartare as a starter, octopus as a main course and at the end a delicious mango sorbet and a crème brûlée. Taste and quality at the highest level. I'd love to come back!

Since I've eaten at Oktopussy quite often and it's always been very tasty, I wanted to try the thing that appealed to me the least among the starters: fried corn. I wasn't expecting anything special and could have put myself in the plate. Class. But actually, as expected. I ordered the tagliolini with scallops as a main course for the third time. Fantastic every time. The atmosphere in the small restaurant is wonderful. Full marks

Stylish restaurant with a good mix of comfort and elegance. Courteous service and good food. All in all, an enjoyable experience that leaves nothing to be desired.

Food mediocre, seating too tight for 2 people, price/performance ratio not good.

We had a lovely evening with super nice service.

Cold reception A woman places us at a table with a bench in the middle. We asked to be placed at a table with chairs with backs, something she did not like. She says that they are always full and that we are not allowed to change tables even though the restaurant was almost empty, only 3 people inside. It had barely opened. My reservation had been made more than a week ago. In any case we couldn't taste the dishes, we left so early

Top Laden! Der Service war hervorragend – freundlich und aufmerksam. Die Qualität der Speisen war ausgezeichnet. Wir hatten jeder eine Vorspeise und einen Hauptgang, und alle Gerichte waren geschmacklich auf den Punkt und sehr ansprechend angerichtet. Sehr empfehlenswert für alle, die Wert auf gute Küche und Service legen.

Amazing seafood restaurant, I like the octopus dish and is tender. Good service and dining experience.

Cool, nice ambience, nice restaurant, good atmosphere! Excellent food, really very good. Absolutely recommended. However, the price is comparatively high.

This was our second time at Oktopussy and we are absolutely thrilled! The food is incredibly good! The service is very friendly and attentive and the wine selection is also great 👍🏻👍🏻 we will definitely be back!

Wonderful location with good food and fabulous wines. The staff is courteous and gave you good advice. Unfortunately it quickly becomes quite cramped and it's not easy to linger in the middle of the room, so we ended the evening somewhere else.

The seating is very cramped, the whole store is way too crowded and the furniture is not comfortable (benches and high tables). The reservation for the next slot was already on the table. That seems uncomfortable. Service was quick, that was the only positive thing. I had the octopus. This came in more of an appetizer portion. Side dish: half a tasteless unseasoned tomato and 10 cucumber slices. Plus 4 olives and a spoonful of tzatziki. The octopus itself was tough and on the grill for too long. My husband had pasta with spinach and scallops. The dish was completely unseasoned and the mussels were of frozen quality. Price performance is not right here at all. We didn't order dessert anymore. 14 euros for a mousse au chocolat is also pretty excessive. In this price range, the bread should not be charged in advance at 2.50 euros.

We felt completely comfortable! The food was delicious and special and the service was super friendly and attentive. A large selection of wines rounds off the evening. We would be happy to come back, we are already looking forward to it!

Top Lokal! Top Bedienung! Sehr aufmerksam, jung und freundlich! Essen war super, außer die Tonate, die war matschig, aber gut, wir haben Oktober und nicht mehr Somner! Geschmacklich toll! Wir mussten etwas länger warten, da gab es zwischenzeitlich einen Gruß aus der Küche. Sehr aufmerksam. WIR KOMMEN GERN WIEDER!!!

That was a really great evening!👏🙏 The food was great - in quality and quantity - and the service was great. We had a great time with “all-round care”. Many thanks to the entire team!

Excelente comida, bebidas y ambiente. Un restaurante de mariscos con una excelente oferta para vegetarianos! Tuve una maravillosa selección de comida y bebidas en este restaurante divertido y acogedor. No puedo esperar a comer aquí de nuevo : )

Wir hatten eine Reservierung für 20.00 h zum Essen mit Freuden doch waren bereits um 19.00 h da. Haben dann im Außenbereich etwas getrunken und das Personal informiert bezüglich der Tischreservierung. Wir haben um 19.40 das nächste mal auf unseren Umzug in das Restaurant hingewiesen und um kurz vor Acht ("der nächste Tisch ist Eurer"). Das Ende vom Lied war um 20.20 h "leider ist grade nichts frei". Wir sind sind durchgefroren und sehr enttäuscht mit einer Flache Wein für 10 € als Entschädigung hungrig wieder gegangen..

I loved it!! I went for dinner during a visit to the city. I really liked the way it was decorated, the atmosphere was very good. The food was 10, I ate the octopus and it was very good. We also shared some tapas before the main course and everything was delicious. The service was attentive and quite fast for the number of people there. If I'm in the area again I'll be back!

It was super delicious! The food is a treat! Unfortunately only small portions (some points deducted) Starter - fresh bread still warm with oil Main course- Tagliatelle with corn-fed chicken and truffles Dessert- Mousse ou Chocolate (actually the largest portion proportionally considered) Nice atmosphere and great service

The Oktopussy restaurant offers really delicious food - the quality of the food is excellent and everything was beautifully presented. However, I found the portions a bit too small for the price. For what you pay, I would have expected more. The service was very friendly and attentive, which still made the visit pleasant. Overall a good experience, but the value for money could be better.

Perfect birthday evening with excellent food and great service! Thanks!

Very good and attentive service, the drinks were brought quickly. Clear portion size, but everyone experiences it differently. Absolutely great taste!! I'd love to go back here!

There was some surprise that both the bread and the amuse gueule were canceled. Are you serious? Please think about it again. Otherwise everything is fine.

Everything is consistent! Great service, delicious food and great ambience. Despite the fully booked terrace, there is plenty of space and very relaxed!

Great, very attentive staff. Excellent starters and outstanding main course! Very fresh and tastes just perfect.

Completely satisfied. Service and food were great!

Everything was simply excellent! Great combination of spices, fresh ingredients and composition! Really fine and can only be recommended 🎉🙏

Food great, atmosphere very pleasant, staff friendly and helpful, food top. Happy to come back <3

Spinach dumplings were ok but not for the price.

Beautiful outdoor area like a little oasis in the city. We went there on bicycles because parking is difficult there. Small menu with 4 dishes per course (starter, pasta, main courses). We were surprised that there wasn't just fish dishes. The teriyaki beef was great, and the other dishes were also beautifully prepared and extremely tasty. Very large wine list. Also attentive, friendly service.

Delicious food and attentive service. However, the desserts are a bit overpriced at €15 and table water for €7.90 is also borderline

Great service! Top drinks and outstanding food! Big praise

The food is very tasty! However, it is always very crowded and therefore quite loud, but the food is simply great. Unfortunately, the service has deteriorated significantly in recent years - a real shame.

An absolute delight for the good cuisine lovers in Dusseldorf. Excellent ingredients curated together for a modern twist on Italian, French and International cuisine, while respecting the essence of the main ingredients. Wonderful ambience on the dreamy, quite terrace and cool atmosphere inside. Will come back to have again this taste explosion and high end seafood.

The food was very good, my octopus was great! The service was very friendly, funny and quick! Thank you very much for the lovely evening!

It's super sweet to sit outside, the truffle pasta is to die for!!! And the service was great too. I can definitely recommend the restaurant :)

The ambience, service and the truffle pasta were to die for. We can also highly recommend the Hugo. The prices are a bit higher than average, but it's really worth it. We didn't find the restaurant crowded at all.

Thank you for the beautiful summer evening with you on Gneisenaustrasse. Food and service excellent. We will definitely come by again.

Very nice atmosphere and a great host. A few more vegetarian alternatives or salads would be desirable. There was a small error on the bill, but it was corrected immediately and excused with drinks on the house. Overall a very nice evening.

Super tasty food, but the portions are a bit too small for my taste. (From the truffle pasta as well as from the dry age steak) (Starter also, buffalo mozzarella and pork belly with sesame) But it really can only be recommended. The taste was unique. The service was very nice and attentive. Always happy 😇

In our opinion, the price/performance ratio was not justified. 270€ for 4 people and no special food. It's a shame, I remembered it better, which is why we chose this restaurant. We came especially from Munich

Nach 14 Jahren und ungezählten tollen Abenden wird es Zeit Danke zusagen an Sven, seit kurzem auch wieder Axel und das gesamte Team. Der sicherlich beste Oktopus in Düsseldorf, die unglaublichen Variationen von Thunfisch und überhaupt die fantastischen Fischgerichte. Dazu eine feine Weinkarte und nicht zu vergessen der immer grandiose Service

Service unfassbar toll, unkompliziert , professionell!! Essen immer gut. Gefühl: Portionen werden etwas kleiner. Reichen aber!

A very cozy atmosphere with very good service. However, the food was too expensive for what you get and I wasn't full!

Super delicious food: the octopus was more tender than I've ever eaten it before and the salmon also tasted great. Great service and nice to sit outside in summer. It's a shame that there's such a big construction site next door at the moment. But in the evening there is no construction noise and hopefully it will be finished soon. We would like to come again.

The salmon fillet with truffle vinaigrette and mashed potatoes and spinach was highly recommended! The menu is small but nice. I also really liked the service, we would definitely come back.

Das Essen war geschmacklich lecker und schön angerichtet auf den Tellern serviert worden. Leider sind die Hauptgänge nicht ausreichend um satt zu werden. Daher finde ich das Preis Leistungsverhältnis nicht ok. Ambiente und Personal alles super. Waren mit 6 Personen da und hatten 450€ gebraucht. Die Männer sind alle noch hungrig gewesen.

Amazing food, amazing service! We will be back soon😁

Very tasty food, cozy atmosphere, gladly again!

Very good food: Vitello Tonnato was great - the best I've eaten so far. Not quite typical, but great. Salmon with side dishes was exceptionally good and the truffle pasta was also very tasty (and even without a truffle flavor, like everywhere else, but with real black truffle). Sitting outside was very pleasant, blankets were also provided, everything was very harmonious. Service was very friendly, even though it was busy. We were pleased that there were also non-alcoholic aperitifs. The only possibility for improvement: the online map was not up to date.

Always delighted with the quality of the food, drinks and friendly service. Unreserved recommendation!

It was very busy today, but the staff were very nice. I wanted to try the octopus because it's my favourite. They only had it as a starter and not as a main course. What a pity. But nevertheless it was very good and full of flavour.

The menu says Surf & Turf, but my companion only wanted steak, which wasn't on the menu. So she told the service when ordering "just the Surf & Turf steak please" - that's how it turned out, the steak was very good, but really tiny and the entire Surf & Turf menu was charged at 49.50 euros. When the bill was presented, the service was informed that this price was too much for half the dish - the service's response was that this was how it was ordered and, after consulting with the kitchen, they decided that the full price should be paid . Very strange service behavior, seems to be the house's strategy - and now the restaurant, which was only half full that evening, has lost two guests for the future. It seems you can allow yourself!

All 3 courses were of excellent quality and tasted excellent. Particularly noteworthy is the great service. Very friendly and accommodating when re-ordering drinks or serving/breaks between courses. You felt very comfortable in the restaurant and would love to come back.

Great food, beautiful outdoor area and good wine selection

We were sitting outside, and our table was right by a manhole in the asphalt, which smelled very bad. While it’s great to sit outside on a warm summer evening, the food, especially considering the price, didn’t make us happy. The overall atmosphere was nice, with some greenery, lights, and pleasant people around. However, I was very disappointed with my octopus. It was dry, cold, and there was very little sauce. My boyfriend’s pasta was just average.

Always really good, food atmosphere and service great, only top rating is possible

The food was very tasty and good wine. Super friendly service team and very attentiveness! Reservation is absolutely necessary. I was there on Thursday evening and the restaurant was completely full. Recommendations: Seared Scallops and Grilled Octopus Parking: rather difficult

Super nice evening, great food, perfect service. Only the chairs and tables outside make it difficult to stay for a longer period of time :) Thanks

The food is excellent, the ambience is still great after all these years. What is particularly noteworthy is the team's very attentive and extremely friendly service. Thank you!

We had a Business Dinner at Oktopussy and we were super happy with the service and more than happy with the amazing food :)

Very average food + overwhelmed staff ...there are much better alternatives in the area

Good time spent at Oktopussy. Very well cooked octopus.

Maybe the best octopus dish I've ever had. There's no better way to prepare octopus. But appetizers and desserts are also delicious. Highly Recommended. Staff super friendly. We had a very nice evening. Thanks!

Thank you for the lovely evening.

Ein ausgezeichnetes Restaurant und dabei herrlich unkompliziert. Das Oktopussy liegt in einer hübschen, ruhigen Wohngegend und verfügt über lauschige, begrünte Außen Plätze sowie einen gemütlichen kleinen Innenbereich. Alles in allem ein tolles und behagliches Ambiente. Sympathische und überaus aufmerksame Service Mitarbeiter servieren gut gelaunt die durchweg besonderen, kreativen und frischen Gerichte. Ein fantastischer Wein rundete das perfekte Ausgeh Erlebnis für uns ab. Die Preise sind fair und beinhalten sogar noch köstliches Brot mit Aioli, sowie ein feines Amuse. Wir kommen wieder!

We ate there as a couple with a reservation. The atmosphere is rustic, clean and cozy. The service is friendly. It's stupid when tables that ordered after us get their food much earlier. When the card for the next reservation is already on the table and you get your main course 25 minutes before it's finished, it's clear that there's no time for dessert. That wasn't good at all... The food isn't great...but rather average. The prices are about 15% too high. I won't go there a second time. Make the prices smaller...then others will surely come back...

Von der Vorspeise bis zum Dessert hat dieses Restaurant alle unsere Erwartungen übertroffen! Zu Beginn der Gruß aus der Küche ' Spitze. Das Dessert ( weswegen ich extra 45min gefahren bin ) super lecker, Zabaione Eis gibt es leider in der Umgebung kaum. Umso mehr hat es mich gefreut das Eis dort zu finden. Der Service hier ist ausgezeichnet. Unsere Kellnerin war aufmerksam, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Das gesamte Personal arbeitet nahtlos zusammen. Wir mussten nie etwas zweimal fragen und schnell ging auch alles, trotz das der Laden gut gefüllt war. Die Atmosphäre ist gemütlich, trotz das man nebeneinander sitzt mit gutem Abstand auf der Bank, empfanden wir es nicht als störend und hatten tolle Gesprächsthemen mit unseren Sitznachbarn. Wo hat man das schon? Der Mund war schneller als das Handy, wir haben leider keine Fotos gemacht. Es war unser erster Besuch,nicht der letzte.

Good restaurant! Very accessible and friendly staff. Food also very tasty.

From appetizers to dessert, this restaurant exceeded all of our expectations! At the beginning the greeting from the kitchen 'Top. The dessert (which is why I drove an extra 45 minutes) was super delicious, unfortunately Zabaione ice cream is hardly available in the area. I was even happier to find the ice cream there. The service here is excellent. Our waitress was attentive without being intrusive. The entire staff works together seamlessly. We never had to ask anything twice and everything went quickly, despite the store being well stocked. The atmosphere is cozy, despite the fact that we sit next to each other at a good distance on the bench, we didn't find it disturbing and had great topics of conversation with those sitting next to us. Where do you have that? The mouth was faster than the cell phone, unfortunately we didn't take any photos. It was our first visit, not the last.

It's worth it. Good atmosphere, liked the place inside and the food and service were great 😃👍. Highly recommended.

The grilled squid dish was a bomb explosion of flavors in my mouth . Sublime! Small business with a lot of customers, but the food came quickly and it all looked super tasty! And the service is spontaneous and very friendly.

It's always amazing that you discover the best restaurants where no one would expect them. The service was very friendly and competent and the food was great. You can immediately tell that the kitchen really puts effort into the details. Prices are reasonable. The selection is not that big but very balanced and the atmosphere is very cozy.

Starter (scallops) was very tasty. The main course (zander fillet) went like this. I ate much better then. What I would like to highlight positively is the delicious asparagus soup that was available for free from the kitchen! The ambience is okay, but the service is very good 👍🏽 All in all, unfortunately I can't give it more than three stars because I was still missing that certain something in everything.

We were here in a larger family group; In general, the menu was a bit fish-heavy for us, but we have to say that we all had a perfect and delicious meal. But if I pay well over EUR 30 for a main course, then I also expect that the overall package really fits. In my opinion, the ambience was a bit special and had more of a bar feel and then at some point the mirror ball started spinning and we were all dazzled, but that was still okay. Our seating area in a corner was nice on the surface, but it was quite uncomfortable and cramped to sit in and that was quite tiring after a good 2 hours. But what wasn't possible was to be treated as a guest; When we all ordered espresso etc. at the end and it was brought, we tried to help the waiter because of our tight space and because he couldn't reach the seats at the back. A mishap occurred and an espresso tipped over and spilled over the table and unfortunately also over the trousers of a guest; That can certainly happen, but the waiter's immediate reaction "I have nothing to do with that" without any apology (even afterward) and without any form whatsoever with which he - in such a restaurant - this mishap - whoever who was always ultimately responsible for it - is unacceptable. The pants were wet, there was no compensation for this certainly unintentional mishap and the topic wasn't even mentioned when paying a bill of almost EUR 300 for 5 people. That is not how it works.

Great food at good prices. Nice atmosphere in a small space. Excellent service, excellent advice. We'd love to come back.

Everything was fine. The service first class. Good wine recommendation and the food was excellent and very interesting. The atmosphere is harmonious. We will be back

Great food, nice wine selection and very attentive service. We'd love to come back.

Very, very tasty, and absolutely okay in terms of price.

I really like being in the octopussy. The food was very tasty and the drink selection was great. There is a great selection of AlkFree drinks and the service is maximally attentive!

Went to Oktopussy for the first time yesterday and certainly not the last time. We haven't eaten such good fish in a long time. The atmosphere is inviting and cozy. Great praise also for the service - very friendly and accommodating. See you next time!!

Food A+ Service A+ Location A+ Best restaurant in Pempelfort!

Der Oktopus war leider zu durch. Für ein 30€ Gericht hätte ich mehr erwartet. Vergleichsweise hohe Preise aber nicht zwingend gerechtfertigt. Die Vorspeise ( Jakobsmuscheln) waren aber gut (20€).

Yesterday we had our sixth wedding anniversary and also our thirty year old...so double the reason to celebrate...we were there for the first time and what can I say, it was a dream. The atmosphere is really cozy and invites you to stay longer. The food was a pure taste explosion and the cocktails were delicious. Our service was really warm and very attentive. For our special day there were hearts on the table decorations and a gift just for us... really nice. The amuse gueule in advance is also a nice idea... A really nice evening for our special day... we'd love to come back... LG

Great refined cuisine. Extremely delicious and has been for years. Always a must for us when we come to Düsseldorf. Be sure to try the “Hot Puss…” instead of espresso.

Great and unusual food, very friendly staff and a cozy and modern interior. Definitely coming back!

The food was delicious. The team is great and the drinks too... Gladly again

nice atmosphere, excellent food, definitely recommended!

We finally managed to reserve a table. We had a very tasty meal and we also really liked the ambience. Thanks to the team! Michael Mühlin - Rhine Taxi

This was the best restaurant experience in a long time! I can't think of anything that could be done better. Maybe give away the food? The prices are high but absolutely reasonable, the service is friendly and fast and you sit comfortably outside on wooden chairs at wooden tables. Immediately again!

We had a great experience at "Octopussy". The little greeting from the kitchen was fantastic, but the main course was simply a star experience. The service was outstanding and made our visit very special. Unreservedly recommended!

Delicious food. Unfortunately it was very tight and we had to share a table with four other people (sat right next to each other like a group), so the planned romance unfortunately didn't happen.

There are options to reserve at high tables or normal tables. Unfortunately, the "normal" table was a bench without a back across the room. This isn't particularly comfortable or pleasant. In general, the seating here is tight, but that's part of the charm. The service is very quick and attentive. The braised ox cheeks were very tender and could be eaten with a fork. The taste was also very successful. There could be a little more sauce. The char was a bit bland and didn't fit the food in proportion. Overall it was good, but the taste was better.

Es gibt die Möglichkeiten, an Hochtischen oder normalen Tischen zu reservieren. Bedauerlicherweise war der "normale" Tisch eine Bank ohne Lehne quer im Raum. Das ist nicht sonderlich gemütlich und angenehm. Generell ist es hier eng Bestuhlung, was jedoch auch den Charme ausmacht. Der Service ist sehr schnell und aufmerksam. Die geschmorten Ochsenbäckchen waren sehr zart und ließen sich mit der Gabel essen. Geschmacklich auch sehr gelungen. Es könnte gern etwas mehr Soße sein. Der Saibling war etwas fad und hat in der Proportion nicht zum Essen gepasst. Gesamt gesehen gut, jedoch war es geschmacklich schon mal besser.

Great culinary highlight, a bit hidden in Düsseldorf Pempelfort, which is complemented by outstanding service. Very friendly reception. The ambience is reminiscent of a typical French bistro. The dishes are reinterpreted with very good and fresh ingredients. The food and wine pairing were excellent. Many thanks to the entire crew at this point, the service was great.

Chosen restaurant by chance and was so pleasantly surprised! The food is very good and tasty. Large portions, everything freshly prepared and lovingly presented. The service is attentive and very accommodating. The ambience is elegant and modern. We will definitely come back and recommend this restaurant!

Great food, very friendly, courteous service A great evening! Thank you
