" I wanted to love Ophelia, but my experience was mixed. The atmosphere is lovely, and the decor is inviting. I went specifically for the famous octopus risotto that I've heard so much about, but it was just okay. It had a nice flavor but lacked the depth I was expecting. Service was great, attentive without being intrusive, but the dishes felt overpriced for what they offered. I’d recommend it for the ambiance but maybe not for everyone’s taste. " (*Curated Review*)

" What an incredible dining experience at Ophelia! From the moment we entered, the ambiance was delightful, and the friendly staff made us feel right at home. The octopus risotto was the highlight of the meal—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The drinks were also impressive; I thoroughly enjoyed a refreshing mezcalita. I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone wanting to enjoy authentic seafood dishes. I will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

I left feeling satisfied and eager for my next visit. This a must-stop for anyone in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

I went for the octopus risotto based on recommendations and it was just mind-blowing! The flavors were so rich and comforting, exactly what I wanted for a cozy evening out.

" I visited Ophelia following glowing recommendations, and it mostly lived up to its reputation! The restaurant is charming and has a warm vibe. The service was friendly and attentive; my glass was never empty. I was particularly impressed with the bluefin sashimi—super fresh and beautifully presented. However, I found the risotto a tad too salty for my liking. Overall, a lovely meal that I would recommend to anyone visiting Ensenada. " (*Curated Review*)

Service was top-notch—the staff really knows how to make you feel welcome. The atmosphere was bustling yet comfortable, perfect for a dinner date.
