Ophelia is 10 out of 10. Their tacos (both the bone marrow and trio of pork) were outstanding! We also ordered the pork belly. Everything was so rich and deep in flavour. We will definitely be back for more! The food came quickly and the staff were very friendly.
A fancy mexican restaurant with very delicious meals and great staff.The drinks are awesome and all the dishes that we tried were amazing. My favorite was the beef chicharons. They were so delicious that we ordered another one.The pork belly is also amazing, unfortunately didn't take its pictures.The restaurant itself looks good, clean and fancy and it's a great environment for a dinner date. The staff are super friendly and the service is fast.
Had high expectations due to the hype online, and had dinner here tonight. Honestly, I think food was not bad, but didn’t live up to the hype for sure. Nothing spectacular but average food. The service was excellent and our server was top notch.Didn’t like the bone marrow in particular as I expected to eat the marrow but no marrow can be found in the bone? Irony?? Our server was nice to remove the dish from our bill and we returned the food.Loved their drink menu though, lots of options!
A friend and I went to Ophelia for dinner on a week night and was pleased with the service and the availability of patio seats - super nice during a hot summer evening!Highly recommend the taco trio. My friend had the bone marrow tacos and really enjoyed it. The shrimp ceviche came with a side of chips and was quite refreshing. Wasn't super expensive either. Prices were expected. Would come again for a friend get together again!
AN UTTER DISAPPOINTMENT.I've always loved this restaurant because of the amazing food and vibe. But recent the food quality has become so shockingly Unacceptable.We ordered the most famous and popular dish: octopus and it was SO SMALL and OVERCOOKED, totally not up to standard to the price charged and the restaurant. We showed the picture to many of our friends who has had the octopus before and they all laughed and said WHAT IS THAT.We told the waiter and told him why the octopus look so small and over cooked, compared to every photo on IG, and he said this is normal.We also ordered the 16oz steak, medium rare, and when it came it was fully cooked, tasted like beef jerky, compared to the other times I've came which was juicy and amazing.Not sure if they changed chef or is trying to cut down the cost, but it was a disappointing and horrible experience.
cool and cozy spot, great service and delicious food! everything was fresh and very flavourful. our server gave great recommendations and you can’t go wrong with the bone marrow on tacos?will be back again!
I’ve been craving bone marrow and was delighted to see there was a happy hour menu here. It was great to have bike stands right outside the restaurant and be sat on the patio immediately by the friendly hostess, although advised there is a time cut-off due to happy hour. We ended up just ordering from the main menu as it was all appealing. Hands down Tacos De Arracherro Y Bone Marrow was the star of the dishes. It was fantastic to be able to add additional bone marrow, which the staff kindly offered additional corn tortillas to accompany it. Our server, Peter, was above and beyond in hospitality, very kind and attentive ensuring everything was timely. The meal was just as brilliant as the service.
Heard good things about this place and decided to finally come here for drinks and snacks after the Canucks game. We ordered classic margaritas, taco trio, and ahi tuna salad. Imo it was a bit pricey for Mexican bites, but I enjoyed the restaurant’s nice vibe and ambience, and food was quite fresh and flavourful. It’s also nice that they’re open ‘til late! Will come again for dinner next time.
Excellent service! The food were delicious and the chef deserves a very good rating. Perfectly seasoned and spiced. There were 6 of us and we did not have to wait too long for the food. We ordered chicharron de rib eye, tuna tostada and volcanes de arracherra for appetizers, 2 orders each of the pulpo en mole blanco, molcajete de arrachera y camaron and the tacos de arracherra y bone marrow. We all shared the churros and chocoflan for dessert. My favorite dish out of all of them was the tacos de arracherra y bone marrow. I will definitely order it again! Thank you Ophelia for a great dinner, nice ambiance, comfortable seats and wonderful service. Will I go to Ophelia again? ABSOLUTELY! Thank you Mike V. for the recommendation.
This should be a good restaurant. However, was there last night, had to wait over two hours for a meal, and over 40 minutes for a refill on the drink. Server was apologetic but the restaurant's attitude to the delay was reprehensible. Clearly, they were far too important for this guest. Style over substance - a power's paradise.
