“ The food at El Oktopus is fantastic. It was super fresh, flavorful, and plated beautifully. The servers were great. They were really sweet and friendly. It felt like going to a friend’s house for dinner. This was the best meal I had in Puerto Penasco and I can’t wait to go back. ”
“ Now my favorite place to eat in Rocky Point. If you like seafood, this is the place for you. Fine dining for not much more than you pay for regular, Mexican food. The flavors, the presentation, the freshness, I just can’t go on enough about how amazing this food was. The combination of flavors was truly incredible. Try the pork jowl and octopus tacos on the blue tortilla and the combination plate with fish and shrimp and octopus on a rice. Pilaf was just delectable. ”

“ Reasonable prices! food i ordered plus the custom aguachile de pescado on point! The staff! all so super nice friendly and the owner was pleasant and came over to see how my meal and service was! 2x1 on national beers during happy hour! yes and yes ”
“ Love. Love. Love. I had a great time on vacation and this place was beautiful. The fact that it was right by the ocean, and you could sit upstairs (outside) to catch the views, was perfect on a sunny day. The wait staff was very hospitable and light hearted. A couple of them joined right in with our group in having a bit of fun. The interior was well put together. The food was portioned properly. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it for kids so much due to the type of food that’s on the menu, but if they’re open to trying something other than nuggets, they might be just fine. ”
“ Dined on a Monday evening. Our server was so helpful and friendly and went above and beyond to make our experience great. The food was amazing and very large portions. We had sushi plates, ribeye plate, and a couple of other plates. This was some of the best food we have had in Rocky Point. I highly recommend ”
“ Amazing octopus sushi and tacos !!! So good. I wish I had more room to order another! Even if you think you might not like octopus I would try something with it!!! Tender. Great huge drinks made with filtered ice while viewing the street and water. ”
“ Great food, very attentive personnel, a very good experience. Their Octopus Platter with Papas Bravas (spicy fries ) is simply delicious , as well as the Almejitas (clams), recommend their shushi too!! Did I say everyone is supper friendly and attentive?
