    Opus 9 delivers on the expectation of getting the best meal and service in town. Opus, Hondo's and Schlesinger's, all the same owners know how to provide a great experience.

    You forgot my 81st birthday ! Started with a shrimp cocktail, some wine, then a 20 ounce filet with Bearnaise sauce, asparagus, with Hollandaise sauce, a baked potato, and finished with a creme Brulle. Fantastic meal, as always at Opus 9.

    My wife and I had a date night last night at Opus 9 and we were pretty disappointed with the quality of our food. The ambiance and service was fine, but they should never outshine the star of the show, which is the food. First, our salads (wedge and Caesar) were both browned and we’re not fresh at all. These are the salads I would expect at Applebees, but not at a fine dining steakhouse. My wife had the shrimp opus which claims to have 7 jumbo shrimp. They were far from jumbo, just regular shrimp with a very bland presentation. My steak frites was fine, and the steak was actually better than I expected, to be fair. We didn’t want to complain and mess up our romantic vibe, but we both left feeling a little blah about the whole experience. The $200 price tag (with tip) should have afforded us a better experience. As new residents of Williamsburg (our 2nd time visiting this restaurant), we’d love to look forward to a nice experience so please raise your standards a bit. Thanks.

    Very nice place with good service. I ordered steak medium. It came to me medium rare. The steak was tough. I even had a hard time cutting it. For $75 steak i did not expect that. There was also a dead fly in my water. For high end restaurant i expected it to be better food.

    Opus 9 SteakhouseResponded on September 22, 2023

    Thank you for your post. We read every review in our constant effort to improve our business. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed Austin's service, but so sorry to hear that the steak fell short of our high standards. We have received many fine comments on our steak and I am sorry that this was not the case for you. If ever any steak is not as tender as it should be, please let us know when you are here. We will immediately replace the offending cut with something you enjoy more. I regret that I have only this venue by which to contact you. Please, if it is not too much trouble might you send me an e-mail with your contact information?

    We have been to Opus 9 a number of times and have enjoyed it every time. It is actually our favorite restaurant. Tonight was no exception. The crab cake dinner was delicious, as was the seafood trio. The ribeye was on point although I did not care for the butter coating that was added. I could have gotten it without the butter but wanted to try it. We will definitely be back.

    It was our second time here, and it was another great experience! My girlfriend had the Cote du Rhone and enjoyed it very much, while I had a local Virginia craft beer. We shared the oyster appetizer. She had the seafood trio and I had the Cowboy steak. Both were excellent, and nothing was left on either plate. We then shared the New York cheesecake desert. Our server, Juliana, was very attentive without being smothering. She earned a large tip for excellent service. Can’t wait to come back!

    Lovely evening. We frequently go there for lunch but with the special dinner offer we decided to give dinner at Opus a try. We are not steak fans so both ordered crab cakes. My husband ordered the fried oyster appetizer. Not sure if there was much oyster in the breading. The crab cakes were decent but tasted more like pasteurized crab vs fresh. I’m from Maryland so I’m picky about crab. My Caesar salad was rather bland. Overall the dinner was a disappointment at those prices. I think we’ll stick to lunch at Opus9. A much better value.

    My husband and I LOVED our experience at Opus 9. All the food we ate was excellent. My favourite dish was the caramel pecan Brie - it was TO DIE FOR! Also the butter that comes with the bread at the start of the meal was divine. The table was beautifully set, the ambiance was lovely, our server Markus was great - I really wish we had a restaurant like this close to where we live! We were amazed that our bill wasn’t nearly as much as we assumed it would be, that was the icing on the cake. We would eat here regularly if we lived nearby!
