It was my first time to have dinner at Octavium. First impression was great, spacious and cosy environment and friendly wait staffs. Ordered 3-courses meal: pumpkin ravioli to start, poached sea bass for main and cassata gelato as my dessert. First thing first, I have to say I love the bread so much! The bread is freshly baked, very hot, crispy in the outside and soft inside. I had almost a quarter before anything else. My first dish - pumpkin ravioli is tasty too, the cheese foam smells awesome

My first dish - pumpkin ravioli is tasty too, the cheese foam smells awesome(if you are a cheese lover) and since it’s foam you don’t feel heavy at all! Pumpkin stuffing also cooked perfectly and I love it so much!
The main - poached sea bass is a bit strange. It’s warm and not 100% cooked the centre is semi-raw (which I don’t like it much and never expected to have raw sea bass). Since it’s semi- raw, it has the fishy smell and taste.
My favourite is gonna be the dessert, the cassata gelato is not too sweet and the balance with the raspberry sauce was just right!
Overall the main dish is a let down, pasta and dessert (and the bread) are great. I might go back again if there are special menu or promotions.
