    Odeon is one of my favorite restaurants - my go-to when I want a relaxed, pleasant meal with great food. Tonight I had a lovely French Onion Soup with the perfect amount of carefully toasted cheese, croutons and onions. The broth alone is a worthy, rich appetizer. The macaroni and cheese was the ultimate comfort food for this chilly evening - cheesy without being too thick or too soft - that I paired with a basic but tasty mixed green salad to make me feel healthy. I finished with my favorite dessert - the toffee pudding. It is sweet with just a touch of chewy caramelization on the crust to contrast with the tender center and an accent spoonful of perfect whipped cream. The staff - from the maitre’d to the waitresses to the servers and busboys - are exceptionally kind, efficient and just nice people. Yes, I love Odeon!

    Great experience, wine deal was a steal. Octopus and steaks were great. Waiter was polite but had a large section on a chaotic night so I feel for him. Very professional and energetic place.

    Toured the building and dined for lunch at T. Brasserie. The food was beyond amazing. We tried the crab stuffed avocado, brussels sprouts, frisee salad and sausage over mashed. And the onion soup...omg, the BEST we ever had, hands down. Service was great and price was reasonable. Will be back again soon.
