Romantic, intimate and perched on the pretty Intracoastal water at the southern end of Siesta Key, Ophelia’s is an obvious choice for those wanting a leisurely and lovely dinner with good wines amid people who want to make you feel special. A lot of marriage proposals take place in this polished dining room or on the scenic deck. Sophisticated in its approach to food and service, Ophelia’s has a relaxed Florida elegance that puts everyone who dines there in a vacation state of mind—a luxury vacation, that is. The menu is global with creative local seafood dishes, and the tiny bar with its shelves of well-lit bottles is so enticing that locals sometimes stop by just for a drink and appetizer there.
