Opus Restaurant
54 Cornwall Street, Birmingham, B3 2DE
Set in the financial district of central Birmingham, Opus is a stylish, contemporary restaurant, which also houses a renowned local patisserie. Decorated in retro tones of red and olive, the restaurant has a well-spaced and handsome setting perfect for professional lunches or formal dinners.
Opus prides itself on serving free-range meat, wild fish and homemade desserts, and organises special dinner nights when diners get to meet farmers, fishermen and merchants, who supply them throughout the year. The modern British menu emphasises seasonal produce, with dishes such as fillet of veal wrapped in Parma ham, as well as a large variety of fresh shellfish. There are private rooms for up to sixty four people.

REVIEWS OF Opus Restaurant
Dan (13 March 2009)
I'm surprised by the negative reviews here. My own experience at Opus in July 2008 was a very pleasant one. For one thing I've always been in the habit of asking for 'tap water' at the start of a meal anyway, so there was no problem there. Our waiter was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and the service was exemplary. As for the food - it was very high quality throughout. A dish of scallops with pork belly was particularly well cooked and delicious, but each of the six courses we ordered were enjoyed greatly. The bill was on a par with the last Michelin-starred restaurant I went to, but to be honest so was the cooking, ambience and presentation. So while others on here have been less happy with Opus, I can confirm they definitely have 'good nights'. I'm going back there in a month's time; I shall report back with my findings.
Oliver (16 February 2009)
The service was consistently slow throughout the evening. Having to wait more than 10 minutes for the bill to arrive was insulting. As other reviewers have mentioned, bottled water is presumed on the diners. The food was below the standard expected at this price point - both the spinach and steak were quite badly overcooked. The crème brûlée came practically liquid at first and after sending it back, the second attempt was not much better. The members of staff were friendly enough however they came across as badly trained - making silly mistakes when taking orders. I will definitely try to avoid in the future.
