What is clearly a hotel dining area is advertised as the Octagon restaurant. Not really elegant, private, or offering much in the way of atmosphere, the Octagon charges 5 star rates for 2 star fare. As hotel guests there for breakfast -- generally a situation in which it is assumed guests have places to go & desire quick service -- we were seated, then ignored for a solid ten minutes, until we literally waved our arms in a manner that could not credibly be overlooked by passing wait staff. We were told that our particular server would be informed -- a person who had not previously been seen showed up and with evident resentment accepted our questions -- no order, really, as the only options was the buffet.Generally this is not the kind of service we've received at Marriott hotels, and we were not pleased. The buffet was adequate, but not impressive. The omelette station chef overcooked both our omelettes -- brown inside and out, wow, that took some doing -- so the dry, lifeless wad of overcooked spinach, egg and onion i received as only held together by very stringy mozzarella, not the cheddar cheese i had requested.Okay, it's a hotel buffet, not Sardi's, I know, but...wow.Only a few miles from Mystic, the Octagon has no views of the river or ocean.Unlikely we'll return.

This is the place where you eat your breakfast if you stay at the Best western Olympic Inn, and it is in need to a good face lift and someone to monitor the food.

Well I just moved into the neighborhood, and having passed this place numerous times decided to try it out.Called in a pretty simple order, was told 15 minutes, gave them 20. Stood at the hostess station for 15 minutes and was told "have a seat, kitchen jammed up". Interesting - there was only about 10 people in the place and half of them were already eating. But they did me a free can of coke for my trouble.However takeout was quite good so I will try it again.
