Best Waterfront Restaurants in Gulf Gate Estates

Great spot on Sarasota Bay for delicious seafood and drinks. The grouper sandwich is the best in the area. The outdoor patio is the best setting, where you can watch the boats wander by or come to be stored in the adjacent boathouse. Plan ahead as reservations are scarce and you’ll face long waits without one.

We celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary at Ophelia's and we really enjoyed it. Our server Chester was amazing! We sat outside (we heard during a full moon its absolutely breakthtaking). loved the ambiance. We started off dinner with the mussels - delish! They bring you extra bread to soak up all the juices. The portion is a good size definitely for 2 people. We also ordered the scallops and the lobster risotto. And we had the peanut butter tower for desert. 10 out of 10 for sure. Highly recommend

Had a lovely dining experience there. Good service from Morgan.

Great food and ambiance. Service was a little slow, but Nick jumped in and did a great job in moving our meal delivery along. Tripletail entrees were delicious as were the bacon wrapped scallops and lobster bisque.

We were a party of 4 and everyones meal was excellent and the service was wonderful!
