Ophelia's Electric Soapbox - Denver

Nervous from previous reviews, I called ahead of a jazz concert I wanted to see and was confidently told they would make their indicated menu items from scratch for any dietary restrictions including vegan. Upon arrival, the venue was incredible. It’s a lovely upstairs lounge looking over a lower level stage with room for dancing. There’s artwork in every direction and the staff is very friendly. The cocktail mock tail list is enchanting. The energy is tremendous. Food: it is a vegan options place, not a vegan place. Bummer since plant based would so match their vibe. BUT the fun guy pizza, the pretzel and mustard, the margarita pizza… honestly it was all really, really great with thoughtful flavors and textures. So while limited… if you see some music you’d like and have a hankering for pizza, you’re in for a wonderful time.

I 've dined at Ophelia 's as a non-vegan and, on Saturday night, as a plant-based eater, and I 'll say my most recent experience was disappointing. I chose the Restaurant Week Menu items that were marked available as vegan by request and the waitress then told me that the flatbread (the only vegan-optional entree) wasn 't vegan because the dough has egg whites in it. Because I 'm more plant-based than vegan, this wasn 't a huge deal for me. But I found it really frustrating that something that is marked vegan-optional can 't truly be made vegan when requested. Please do better, Ophelia 's.

What an amazing atmosphere! Live music with an extensive bar snd food menu! Good fries. Great beet burger. Bartenders are so much fun!

Amazing ambiance on a Saturday night. great music and nice waitstaff. The plantains were sweet and paired nicely with the cilantro pesto which they said was dairy free.

Things have improved since previous reviews. There are 2 vegan pizzas, a risotto entree, and a couple of appetizers. It’s a fun vibe with live music if you go during a show. I’d recommend it for a unique experience.
