About
Welcome to Octopous Bar Bistrô Bazar, a culinary gem nestled in the heart of Manguinhos, Armação dos Búzios, Brazil. This inviting venue is more than just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of flavors, with a special emphasis on the ocean's bounties. Situated at Av.

As you step inside, you’re greeted by a warm atmosphere filled with the tantalizing aroma of fresh seafood. The star of the menu is undoubtedly the grilled octopus, a dish that many guests, including Svetlana Negrustuyeva, have hailed as “amazing, fresh and refined.” Whether enjoyed on its own or as part of the octopus trio featuring delightful carpaccio and croquettes, each bite reflects the chef's commitment to quality.
But the culinary adventure doesn't stop there. Guests can indulge in a variety of dishes that perfectly complement the coastal vibes.
