Spanish Octopus

$18.00 · 30 Reviews

The 3 course dinner set was amazing and super value for money with burpple 1-for-1 ($60).

Started with the Spanish octopus which was perfectly cooked. We got the lamb shank and pork for mains. There was also a complimentary birthday dessert on top of the 2 desserts we alr have.

Overall it was a pleasant experience as we had a very hearty meal.

We had fried oysters and Spanish octopus for our appetizers, followed by porta burger and fillet mignon for our mains. We ended off the night with our desserts - Pecan cake with ice cream and Black Forest. They gave us an complimentary birthday cake as it was my friend birthday!

The service was really great and the ambience is chill. This place is located in Park Hotel, it is overall great for a nights out! With the deal, it was double the worth!

Price: $62 for 2 pax

Spanish Octopus with Aioli, Patatas Bravas & Paprika

Second time and proud to say that this place is consistent. They converted someone who normally does not eat lamb and octopus into liking them. Extremely worth it with Beyond because it's $60++ for 2. Octopus is served several pieces of fried potatos which add great texture to the dish, which has a hint of spice. Hands down the most value-for-money of the appetisers (don't bother about the rest)!

Burpple beyond: 3 courses for $62++

Loved the creamyness of the ice cream, the crunch of the crumble and pecans, and the sweetness of the pie!

Wanted to try the lamb rack but it was out of stock at around 130pm. Pork was tender but not memorable.

Enjoyed the filet mignon (medium well). Meat was flavourful and tender, and went well with the sauce.

Appetizers were flavourful and good! Big portions served as well.
Service staff were attentive in refilling water, and switched utensils before serving the next dish.

We visited Porta on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty empty. We chose the 3-course set menu and I must say it’s really a steal.

For appetisers we had the Spicy Salmon Tartare and the Spanish Octopus. The tartare wasn’t spicy but was fragrant while the Octopus was well-seasoned and tender. It’s rare to find an octopus dish so well cooked and not chewy or tough.

We both opted for the Filet Mignon and it cut like butter. That’s was how tender it was.

For dessert we had the Black Forest Cake and the Pecan Pie. The cake was a lava cake so that was a surprise but a good one nonetheless. The pie was not too sweet and it paired well with the scoop of ice cream on the side.

Our server Kavitha was amazing and kind. Would definitely come back again.
