Spend Valentine’s Day evening at Ovide, Hotel Effie Sandestin’s signature restaurant known for its sophisticated interpretation of Gulf Coast flavors and warm Southern hospitality. Located just steps from Baytowne Wharf, Ovide offers an inviting yet refined setting where rich wood tones, artful details and thoughtful cuisine set the tone for a memorable night. On Saturday, February 14, from 5-10 p.m., guests are invited to enjoy an elegant five-course prix-fixe menu that unfolds course by course, beginning with an amuse bouche and dishes such as Beet-Cured Flounder with horseradish, citrus and roe; Chesapeake Bay Scallops accented with ruby grapefruit and passionfruit; and Braised Pork Belly with Spiced Shrimp, sourdough spaetzle, and Kaluga caviar. For the main course, guests may choose between roasted Gulf Snapper with grits, piperade and chermoula or Pepper-Crusted Angus Beef Filet with pomme dauphine, asparagus tips and foraged mushrooms, before finishing the evening with a Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cheesecake. Designed for an intimate night of connection and indulgence, this special Valentine’s Day dinner is priced at $125 per person, excluding tax and gratuity, with reservations available via OpenTable.
