Once again Ophelia knocks it out of the park. I don't normally do a second review, even for my favourite spots, but the food forces my hand. If you haven't tried the bone marrow tacos, get on it. You also might want the chicken enchilada stack. Those who know me understand that I don't lie about food. Money, sex, but NEVER food. Eat here.

Fabulous food and our server from Mexico City was wonderful and taught us a lot about traditional Mexican cuisine. We would recommend this restaurant for great margaritas! The bone marrow, tacos and ceviche were also amazing. Thanks for a memorable dinner on our girls weekend!

Tried the VOLCANES DE ARRACHERRA, PORK BELLY EN MOLE VERDE, TACOS DE ARRACHERRA Y BONE MARROW and TRES LECHES CAKE. Enjoyed it all! The TACOS DE ARRACHERRA and BONE MARROW a favourite. Liking forward to coming back again

I love it in here! Every time we eat here, we end up really happy with our visit. Tasty and authentic Mexican food, the Tortilla Soup and the Aguachile are superb! But anything is just great!

We had dinner for 5, and the food was excellent. Every entree and appetizer was wonderful. We mostly shared everything, so we could all taste a lot of items, and none of us were disappointed. The service was also excellent, friendly, and relaxed, without being overly intrusive. The decor is really great, too, contributing to an ambiance of comfort and ease. We will be coming back.

My partner and I really enjoyed eating here. Would definitely come back. We found Ophelia on TikTok and wanted to try it because of the bone marrow tacos. The service was good, though our server was a sweet soft spoken man, so occasionally it was hard to understand what he was saying. He showcased the wine properly, by pouring it slightly, letting me smell and taste it first, then filled the glass. I was very pleased with that, as a lot of restaurants now just bring you the glass already poured. I got the Verdejo, which was spectacular. The only downside about our meal was when my partner recieved his bone marrow tacos, there was barely any marrow and was more just leftover oil on the bone, instead of the soft marrow that typically comes out. It was probably just a bone that didn’t have as much as other ones. Hopefully when we return there will be more in the bone! The tacos were outstanding though, and well prepared. I got the trio tacos, and he the marrow tacos. I also recommend the ceviche starter, so fresh and decadent. We both really enjoyed the wonderful pops of flavours, and the presentation was nice.Overall, I would return. Thank you Ophelia!

A great place for Happy Hour...even better when it is Margarita Monday as well! Wonderful margaritas plus tasty appies make for an excellent time. The interior of the restaurant is very cool...the murals are amazing!

OMG! This restaurant deserves Michelin stars and a perfect score!After dining there a couple of times (The white mole is to die for) I decided to spend spring break in Mexico city. I went to highly rated and recommended restaurants. The best mole is still at Ophelia.

We came here for a dinner with friends and it was so lovely! The vibe is super eclectic, the service is really friendly and the food is really flavourful. We particularly enjoyed the bone marrow tacos and the ling cod tacos. The cantarito de mateo cocktail complimented the meal nicely and tres leches cake finished everything off with a nice delicate sweetness.

Ophelia is the most delicious, upscale, authentic Mexican food I've had in Canada. The service was impeccable and the ambiance top top-notch. And fear not, even the most spicy items were not super spicy.
