    Odette’s was fantastic. Service was excellent. Food was great. My date and I ended up spending a very long time there and they didn’t try to rush us out. We appreciated this and made sure to leave an extra large tip for accommodating us. We really appreciated it. Very comfortable setting.

    Fabulous halibut meal tonight. Seated upstairs in a nicely warmed room with plenty of space and great ambience. Love that the entrees include a variety of vegetables which are perfectly done. Tonight was carrots and broccoli along with the smooth mashed potatoes. The crème brûlée and coffee were delicious too. This restaurant never disappoints.

    Pre theater lunch was excellent. It was very busy so a tad noisier than regularly, but staff did everything right in providing good space between large groups when possible. This is a beautiful spot on the river and so close to BCPH.

    Took some friends for a Saturday night dinner. It was our first time there. Read thru reviews and liked what we heard. 3 of us ordered the tortellini appetizer and all agreed it was one of the best pasta dishes we ever had. The other ordered the gnocchi, which was good as well. We all ordered different entrees: short rib, scallops, filet mignon, and veal chop. All were very pleased with their meal. For dessert, 3 of us ordered the profiteroles. One of our guests is French and he said it was one of the best he had since coming to the States over 10 years ago. The restaurant is small and tables are close together. But all of the diners seemed very respectful of one another so we were able to have a good conversation over a wonderful meal. The restaurant is BYOB, which is a nice touch. The prices are above average but you get what you pay for. The server made all of the dishes sound fantastic. Credit to her that she did not go through a ton of detail on each item. Her 'highlight' approach was just right to give us a sense of the strength of each item. It was not only me who appreciated that. All of our party commented positively on that.
