Ophelia’s never disappoints! I was celebrating my daughter’s special birthday and Ophelia’s had a lot to do with making it special. From the greeting when we walked in, to the table for 2 facing the water, to the complementary champagne toast at the end. For a very special occasion, you can’t beat Ophelia’s!

We have been going to Flemings for years. We went for Tomahawk Tuesday and it was one of the best meals we’ve ever had anywhere. They made sure my birthday celebration was special. Our server Laurie and bartender Bailey were wonderful. It was just a perfect evening!
