Decor was stylish but low key. Server was friendly and professional. Martinis were classic, cold and crisp but would have preferred pitted olives. Started with the seared foie gras and maple apples. It was perfectly seared, at least according to me, and the interior was buttery. The apples provided some nice balance. It was good but have had before at other fine restaurants. For the main ordered the Iberico pork and peas with mint and mustard. Also ordered a side braised octopus risotto although not really necessary. Just wanted to try it. The risotto was creamy and flavourful but not sure it needed the octopus, although it was tender. The pork however was the star. Have had a lot of pork prepared all different kind of ways but this was imo one of the best. Took a bite and the flavour hit all at once as it melted in my mouth. The sweetness of the peas was a perfect compliment to the saltiness of the pork. Definitely must try. Great meal and experience. No room for dessert. Next time.

Opus never fails to deliver great food, wine and atmosphere. Mario is a modern day Frank Sinatra as he scans the room to make sure every detail is perfect. A special place to go for dinner.

Service was great . Food was ok. My husband ordered a steak and it was very chewy. My chicken dish was great. By the glass menu was not good. Only choice of 4 wines . And wine they offered was 3.8 rating. To order a bottle for one person does not make sense as one of us does not drink … Over all it was good experience.

My wife and I had dinner here last night and we can't say enough good things about the incredible food, extensive wine selection, amazing service and welcoming atmosphere. From the moment you enter and receive a warm welcome from Mario the owner to the outstanding and attentive service we received from Tosh our server. Also, my wife is gluten and dairy free and they didn't hesitate at all to have the kitchen work around her restrictions. Kudos to Chef Jason Cox! The staff here all work together and clearly really care about their guests. Truly great! We'll be back for sure.
