Ophelia's on the Bay Seafood Restaurant ·$$$

Few other places, let alone restaurants, will be able to offer you the kind of view that Ophelia's on the Bay affords. Whether you sit in one of the two glass-walled dining rooms or out on the patio, you have access to unobstructed views of Little Sarasota Bay, and, if you're lucky enough, maybe even a dolphin or two. As for the food, it is contemporary American, incorporating flavors from many different cuisines. You can gorge on lobster-infused blue crab bisque, Chilean salmon, Nicaraguan black grouper and more seafood specials. Those looking for something sumptuous should like the tenderloin of pork and stuffed Bandera quail. A wine list is also offered.
