Mr. Pulpo Seafood Grill - Richmond

Please tell me you aren't closed down permanently. I have seriously had some of the best seafood I've ever had here, with enormous serving sizes too. Always had fresh ceviche and their octopus was always so fresh and delicious. Truly a gem of Richmond. Truly underrated and sad to see it close.

Food was incredible, service was awesome, and atmosphere was perfect for lunch or dinner. Looking forward to our next visit. The grilled octopus was insanely good.

Amazing! We come from California so we are lucky to have a ton of great seafood and Mexican food options. What a fantastic local restaurant. Our favorites were the garlic octopus with superb rice and vegetables for the sides, and the asada (steak quesadillas were the best we have ever had. Perfectly grilled and cut/shredded beef with grilled red onions, orange, yellow and green bell peppers, and just enough cheese to bind it together during the grilling process. We also had the grilled octopus (good but ask for no sauce , fried octopus (pretty darned good! , calamari (not good unfortunately , and we were in time for happy hour. Adults enjoyed mojitos and frozen strawberry margarita. Kiddo had Virgin frozen strawberry margarita. HIGHLY recommend.

Food i ordered a mixed quesadilla. I wanted steak and shrimp mix but he ended up giving me steak and chicken. The quesadilla was very greasy so I ate a lot of the free chips to counter the grease somehow. I ordered a strawberry margarita on the rocks but it came frozen. The margarita was very good and worth trying again. Overall the food looked very good but just didn 't taste great to me. I wouldn 't order a quesadilla again. If I come back I would get something different to eat and get margaritas again.Service besides the staff getting my order wrong, they got my friend 's order wrong as well. We pointed at the items we wanted off the menu and things were still lost in translation. My friend ordered an appetizer but they served her the full meal version and she didn 't realize the problem until we got the bill. The staff was very friendly and gave us plenty of chips and salsa for a table of 6. Pro: nice staff willing to explain menu items Con: forgetting to follow up and half way doing orders correctlyAmbiance: I feel indifferent. The place wasn 't decorated much to be a specific theme/consistent recognizable theme. The music was good and wasn 't too loud. It was loud enough to be heard during conversation breaks and low enough for people to talk without yelling.

Was in search of a new seafood restaurant and glad I found them. FYI they specialize in octopus as a cuisine but offer other items as well. The food was so good I personally thanked the chef. My new little spot
