This is an old-school fine dining establishment. The decor is all dark, carved mahogany wood and back-lit stained glass windows. Servers are dressed in dark suits. The austere atmosphere and serious wait-staff can make guests feel uncomfortable. If you skip dessert or don't order alcohol be prepared to feel judged.
The steaks are tender. The Caesar salad prepared table-side is expensive at $18. But, at least it is meant for two. Prices are high, as expected for this type of upscale restaurant.
I would only recommend The Octagon for a special occasion and older clientele.
