"Walk into Ophelia’s and you’ll see an over-the-top amount of framed photos and old Italian ads on the wall, along with the constant din of busyness from the kitchen. The only thing that breaks the spell is the occasional off-key rendition of “Any Man of Mine” wafting in from the party tractors a few blocks out. But it’s easy to tune that out if you just focus on the piatto mille dollari (or what we like to call the “ginormous charcuterie board”) and crispy pizzas with mortadella, bacon, and drizzles of truffle honey. Ophelia also makes one of the best desserts in the city: the insanely rich cannoli sundae made with ricotta ice cream." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak
"A meal at Ophelia’s is a busy, frenetic, and electric scene. There’s an over-the-top amount of framed photos, old Italian ads, and a steady buzz of conversation floating through the room. It’s fun and lively, although maybe not the best place for a first date—the outside patio is more conducive to that. What Ophelia’s does really well is charcuterie, like the piatto mille dollari (or what we like to call the “ginormous charcuterie board”), and crispy pizzas topped with things like mortadella, bacon, and drizzles of truffle honey. It also makes one of the best desserts in the city: the insanely rich cannoli sundae made with ricotta ice cream." - jackie gutierrez jones 2

"This eclectic, yet homey, downtown cafe specializes in wood-fired pies, antipasti, and an impressive charcuterie board. You can choose to dine al fresco and enjoy an Ophelia’s negroni (blood orange gin, Campari, vermouth, and orange cream bitters) on the intimate patio out front, or post up at the bar towards the back and watch the staff hustle to and from the kitchen. Don’t miss one of the best desserts in the city: the cannoli sundae with ricotta ice cream." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
