The Blue Octopus

It is exciting to have a champagne bar in Tacoma. I have several girlfriends who love it but not wine so much, so I went in early March for a friends birthday. The champagne flight was good and plenty to share with 3 to 4 people to get taste to decide what you wanted a glass of or for two to share to try and perhaps be done. They have a small appetizer menu that was a solid 7.5/10. We ordered the cheese plate which had an amazing goat cheese. We ordered the truffle popcorn, which I liked but my two friends thought it wasn’t enough truffle flavor. We also ordered the pistachio’s that were advertised as de-shelled but came shelled, which didn’t bother me, but my friend mentioned the menu should be updated. They are relatively new and changing thing like that might be costly and will probably be updated whenever there are significant change on the menu. Overall if you aren’t that hungry and like champagne good choice. Also there are so many food choice around this location like wild fin, mio sushi, and Ferrell’s pizza to name a few. You have other food options. Finally, check out photos. I will close with a good and bad. The server a young man did not pour the champagne well, he pour some on the table of a nice bottle my friend bought to treat herself (so she poured the rest for the table after that to ensure the rest of the bottle would make it into the glasses).They have an art studio up stairs so you can do a drink and art party type event.

Cool place! I have worked there as a freelance musician and I definitely like the staff and the vibe from a professional standpoint. Haven't been in as a customer so I can't speak to their selection or prices but the ambience is really cool!
