We stayed at Ophelia's for a week long church conference at the Community of Christ in Independence. The rooms here are excellent, great beds and very spacious. The location is right on the square in downtown Independence. We enjoyed the free breakfast what was cooked and then served buffet style. This is a great place to stay if you are... More

Stopped in for a simple lunch and was pleasently surprised. All three of us really enjoyed our meal and our server was pleasent and swift. The place wasn't busy, but we got our food quickly and it was clearly fresh. If you're in the area, I definately recommend.

Went with my wife and met with friends on Friday night, our server was excellent and was pleased with the live guitar and piano jazz playing. The food was great! The "brick" chicken was very well prepared and succulent, we were able to have great conversation and enjoy the low light and ambiance of the dark wood decor and professional... More

We have eaten at Ophelia's several times over the past dozen years and have stayed at the inn on three different occasions. It's a real gem of a place, right on the redeveloped Independence (MO) square. The courthouse with its Harry Truman statue is right across the street as is the soda fountain where Truman worked. The Truman home is... More

I have heard many times about how great this restaurant is. Well, all said is correct! Charming, quiet inside. Excellent service and truly fine food at reasonable prices I must say though we were out off by terribly loud music coming forth from the restaurants outside speakers. Sooo awful. Come to find out it is the choice of the owner.... More

Cons: It was very difficult to get a good night's sleep. The sheets on our queen size bed didn't fit well so the fitted sheet kept coming undone from the mattress all night. There 2 sleeping pillows available were both flat and uncomfortable to sleep on. We could hear the people and televisions from the rooms on either side of... More

We stayed at the Inn and had supper in the restaurant. We were the only people staying and our room was very nice complete with snacks and beverages and a great view of old downtown. The manager apoligized to us for not 'warning' us that they had live music downstairs that might keep us up. We had supper which was... More

I stayed at Ophelia's while attending a trial in the local courthouse. They were extremely accomodating and friendly. The room was comfortable and clean. The decor was modern without being harsh. I ate most of my meals at the restaurant to save time and each time was delighted by the chef's creativity.

My husband booked a reservation for dinner at Ophelia's and a night in the suite upstairs as a surprise night out for our 16th wedding anniversary. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was upscale with live jazz playing in the background. All of the staff were very attentive to our needs, especially the manager who personally showed us up... More
