About Us
Entering into its 25th season, Ophelia's on the Bay is Sarasota's premiere waterfront fine dining restaurant. Nestled right on Little Sarasota Bay, the low profile of the building gives you eye-level views of Little Sarasota Bay framed by tropical vegetation, a water lily pond with a bronze fountain, and flower gardens. It is Florida the way it should be...without glitz, just a grand view of an unfettered sweep of water, mangroves, seabirds, and an occasional boat or dolphin gliding by. You may dine in one of two glass walled, casually elegant dining rooms or outside on the dockside open air patio. Open seven nights a week for dinner from 5pm to 10pm, with Happy Hour nightly from 5pm to 6pm in our bar/lounge...featuring famous $5 martinis! Also, don't forget to dine at Ophelia's on the Bay every Sunday from 11am to 2pm for our Sunday Jazz Brunch Buffet, featuring the vocal stylings of Mr. Shelly Torman!
