The details
Sof Hospitality—the restaurant group responsible for Doris Metropolitan, Badolina Bakery and Hamsa—will bring the elevated Mediterranean concept to Montrose. The 4,200-square-foot restaurant and bar will replace The Chelsea and operate for dinner exclusively.
Októ is designed to be approachable and will stay open later than the typical hours in the area, per the release. They aim to attract not just diners but also after-dinner drinkers and industry workers.
On the menu
Dining offerings will change seasonally and draw inspiration from the culinary traditions of Greece, Italy and Spain, per the release.
Co-owner Itai Ben Eli said the restaurant group is currently working on conceptualizing the menu based on Mediterranean culture. Sof chefs Yotam Dolev and Hai Avnaim are collaborating on the menu, which will include around a dozen dishes designed for sharing, per the release.
The bar menu will include classic and custom craft cocktails as well as a curated wine list.
