    Food was wonderful. Value for the prices is not out of control but definitely on the pricey side. Good wine list. It was my birthday dinner so no small dessert…only if you want to buy one. That was surprisingly stingy on their part.

    Ophelia’s was fabulous as usual! We have never had anything but fabulous food, wonderful service & a beautiful outdoor dining experience! This is our favorite restaurant in the Sarasota area and possibly just our favorite restaurant period. Chris provided wonderful service tonight and our meal was timed perfectly by him so that we could enjoy every aspect of it! An overall beautiful dining experience!

    We went for a birthday dinner, and as always, everything was on point, from cocktails to dessert (and thank you, Klaus). I can't say enough good things about Roessler's: iconic venue, great food, amazing bar and wine list, super service, and the nicest owners you'll come across. It always feels like you are eating in their home.

    What most distinguished our experience was our waitress Alyssa, who outperformed. I’ve been a server in the best restaurants in Santa Fe and Boston and can say that she was excellent, thoughtful, and knowing. It was also nice that Kaitlen checked on us and made sure we were happy. Food was terrific and the wine deal for lunch is unbeatable. Also, Alyssa was perfectly charming.

    Delicious as always. Macadamia nut crusted grouper is my fave! Service was a little slow but I think it’s because of how busy it was and just opening up after the hurricane. Highly recommend!
