Wonderful experience for my birthday. Had the swordfish which was beyond delicious. Ahi Nachos were so good. And the chocolate triumph was so yummy! Only downside was My husband’s surf and turf filet was mooing, so rare for medium. Sat outside and view and ambiance was so nice. Great meal! Our server was personable and on point.

We went to Ophelia’s for dinner after our wedding ceremony on Siesta Beach. It was perfect. The setting is great, service was amazing, and the food was amazing.

Last night's dinner at Ophelia's was our first. And the first of what will be many, we are sure. My wife and I had a lovely night as we celebrated a big wedding anniversary. Thanks for making the day so special for us.1

This was our first time here , we wanted to sit outside but it was too hot. We moved inside and sat at the bar . Derrick was awesome and very knowledgeable about wines and food. I ordered the Veal she ordered the Fruit di mare they were both very good !! Followed up by a great dessert

Our Father’s Day dinner at Ophelia’s was really good. The food was fantastic and the views spectacular. The service was a bit slow at times, but we really enjoyed our time. Quite memorable.

great food. atmosphere and view of the Bay and Dolphins swimming by.

The crab cake appetizer was very, very good. Server was helpful and friendly.

Always one of my favorite restaurants in Siesta Key/Sarasota. I've been going there almost 20 years. It's been almost 2 years since we got there because of COVID-19. They haven't missed a beat. The cuisine is second to none. The atmosphere is romantic. What are you dine in or out it's pretty amazing but I would encourage water side dining. Do you have a wonderful wireless. Appetizers or off the chain. I can make a meal just eating the various appetizers and then comes the main course and dessert. The service is impeccable. They have craft cocktails And a nice bar to have a cocktail prior to being seated. If you're in Siesta Key you have to book reservation at this restaurant with someone special. A special shout out to our waiter Chubba Who got me out of my comfort zone and had me try some amazing dishes that I ordinarily would not have picked. Thank you again.

Put us in a bad table and try to sell it that it might rain then out others outside in tables. Was hot and humid needs better fans. High prices but food was very good

We love Ophelia’s but last night was definitely an off night. Service was slow, unapologetic and really not what you’d expect from a restaurant of this caliber/price point.

I must say that last night celebrating my birthday at Ophelia's was one of the best meals we have in Sarasota. The service with Michael was outstanding and the menu variety was superb. We will be back very soon.

The food is absolutely perfect and our server was the best ever, I would highly recommend going here for a great evening out 👍

We are new to the area and thought we would try it out. We will be back for sure! Everything was simply amazing!

The food was amazing and the service was even better

Outstanding food, views, and service. Highly recommend

We reserved an outside table for a party of four, it was a 54th anniversary dinner with a close friend. We were shocked when the hostess put us next to a table of 14 people. We could not even talk to each other due to the noise. You would have thought that in making the reservation and calling the Resturant to tell them about the special night they would never have put us next to this party.

We asked the hostess up front and this was a big mistake. She is not very nice and told us this was all you could have. There are no other table. Mistake, it was a big one on her part. I was very upset for my friends who we were taking out to dinner on this special night. My wife finally went up and asked if we could take one of the reserved table at the bar. If you have eaten at Ophelia's in the past you know that their bar area is very small and so are the tables.

Going forward, Friday night and we cannot get a reservation any other place, so we took two seats at the Bar to have a cocktail and toast. Nothing opened up and the hostess could care less. We finally agreed to take the small table in the Bar area. The bar tender who serviced us was very nice and did a great job of handling the situation. Maybe he should be the hostess also.

Dinner was great. I never have had any problem with the food and drinks, just seems to be the front desk. I was surprised for a Friday night that people were in shorts and flip flops for dinner. Guest something never change in Florida and sloppy dress is the best some can do. You would think if you are spending well over $150.00 for dinner you could dress.

So, ruff start, bad front desk, great bar tender and service at the bar was fantastic. And yes the food was fantastic.

Anniversary. Visiting from Denver. Wonderful

We celebrated another wedding anniversary at Ophelia’s on 6/16. This was our 49th. It was a wonderful evening!

Amazing buratta salad, plentiful and delicious tuna bowl. The place could use a make over but the he staff, chief and food are on par with any high end restaurant around.

This was the first visit since COVID. Food was excellent and waitress very pleasant. Always a lovely vire

We went to ophe

Excellent Food and service ! The chef is amazing . Loved my meal. Worth the money. My meal was as delicious as any in a NYC restaurant!

The food is excellent every time that we go to Ophelia’s and this visit was no different. I recommend trying the London Fog cocktail and the Halibut. Both were wonderful. Can’t wait to come back.

Very good food and service. Highly recommend.

Our server Aldo was fantastic! My boyfriend and I agreed probably the best service we’ve had together at a restaurant. Both of the meals we got he recommended and were amazing.

Although we had not been to Ophelias for over 1 1/2, years, we were so delighted to return. The inside dining was thoughtfully arranged with current COVID expectations.and our server was especially thoughtful

Great food and service. We loved the view and highly recommend this restaurant for a special dinner.

A lovely experience in upscale dining all around. The snapper was exceptional!

The outdoor patio on the bay is one of the best locations imaginable. Service was very attentive and cocktails potent.
The food was marred by a couple things I would not expect: my main dish, which I had discussed the listed accompaniments of heirloom tomato salad prior came with squash and asparagus. When she returned(a helper dropped off our plates) and I told her, she apologized and brought me back 2 sliced cherry tomatoes over a tablespoon of artichoke hearts...ice cold and very underripe. My fish was overdone.
My husbands seared tuna was excellent, came with everything it was supposed to, and the Siracha seafood salad served with it was off the hook delicious. So his meal was a 5 and mine was a 3.
Portions were generous.
Would return but a little disappointed.

We went to Ophelia’s to celebrate our anniversary. It met or exceeded our expectations in every way. Our server, Kathy, was outstanding. She was very personable and saw to our needs in every way. She guided us through the extensive menu, and we were extremely pleased with our food choices. For starters, we had amazing Jumbo Lump Blue Crab Cakes on fried green tomatoes,as well as the Eggplant Crepes - a true culinary delight. For entrees, we chose the Tataki Loin of Trinidad and Tobago Yellow Fin Tuna and the Frenched Rib Eye Chop of Milk Fed Dutch Veal. Both dishes were wonderful - perfectly prepared and very flavorful. They were also huge (we both took half home and enjoyed them again the next evening). We finished our meal sharing the Chocolate Napoleon. A wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly recommended.

Food, service (Dana) and bay view were great for this birthday celebration, despite the hot weather sitting outside.

Lovely setting, excellent food, great service. We’ll be back.

Excellent food service and ambiance! Top notch!

This is our favorite restaurant in Sarasota. We enjoy everything about it. The outdoor seating is wonderful.

Awesome food. Professional service.

Perfect evening. Great food, service and ambiance!

Birthday dinner

The meal was wonderful, but the ambiance inside left something to be desired. It was quite loud with numerous conversations and we would have loved to be able to hear the music instead.

I am always Leary about high end dining establishments which come highly recommended as they often disappoint, people just want to say that they have been there. We were pleasantly surprised that this was NOT the case with Ophelia’s. We will return.

The view was fantastic! Food quality was excellent, primarily seafood but excellent diverse choices. The service was very good. Bar and wine list were excellent. Parking requires a valet due to limited availability.
