- DDENISEGoldNew York City •36 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoEverything was and always is perfect. The restaurant is run like a well oiled machine so the service is outstanding with happy servers. Will was perfect last night. The food is always excellent which is why the restaurant is booked every night. The noise level is festive and still so comfortable to have a conversation. Finally, it’s very NY. The patrons are from the neighborhood, this is not a tourist spot.More infoThe Odeon$$$$• French• TriBeCa•4.8
