For 22 years Ophelia's on the Bay has been pleasing it's customers with excellent service and delicious meals. Relax on the waterfront while you dine on local seafood, sizzling meat dishes and the freshest of local produce. Choose appetizers such as Lobster infused Blue Crab Bisque or crispy rock shrimp. Entrees range from South Pacific Ridgeback swordfish to Stuffed Bandera Quail. The presentation of the food alone is worth your visit. The extensive wine list covers many different countries, and the ambiance can't be beat. Be sure to reserve ahead as it is required.
If excellent coffee and a divine breakfast are what you desire, the Sun Garden Cafe is the best around. No greasy diner food here, just healthy delicious food with impeccable service. Start off with fresh squeezed juice or a smoothie. Order a tasty omelette with steamed veggies, portabella mushrooms or fresh prawns. The Sun Garden's famous sweet potato pancakes will have you coming back for more. Eggs benedict, biscuits and gravy and plenty of other delectable dishes are offered. They also serve a fantastic lunch.
For pizza lovers, Solorzano Bros. Pizzeria is the best in the area. Then again when those making it are Italians from New Jersey, you wouldn't expect any less. With fresh made dough and sauce daily, you will definitely taste the difference. Sausage, pepper, onion and meatball may be what you are looking for, or maybe a white pizza with spinach and basil. Spice it up with ham, pineapple, bacon and pepperoni. Some call it the best pizza in Florida. They do take out and delivery as well in case you are staying close by and just want to sit back and relax.
Dessert time is when you head to A Taste Of Germany. They do serve authentic German food such as chicken and mozzarella bratwurst and Wiener schnitzel, but the desserts are absolutely to die for; German pastries, chocolate croissants, black forest cake and tasty cheesecake.
