This was the most disappointing experience!! There were six in out party, all adults. We walked in and the restaurant t had been set up with extra tables so much so that it was a tight maze to get to our table. Our waiter seemed very overwhelmed and devoid of any personality . We got a bottle of champagne fairly quickly , but then it was down hill from there. Our reservation was at 6:30. This was a prix fixe menu for Valentines Day. Our first course came out at 7:30. I had a tough almost inedible artichoke. The flavor was good, but it was tough and spiny. An hour later , we got our second course. I had the pasta , which was fantastic! Best thing we had all night. By that time our server had forgotten to ask us about of third course orders , so those courses took another hour. I ordered the filet which was absolutely cold. Our final bill was $1100.00. Which we paid at 10:30 . Absolutely unacceptable and more than a little disappointing .

First time to Odium and we loved it! We were greeted warmly and seated quickly (we were a few minutes early for our reservation. We started with the best spanakopita I have ever had - as well as an eggplant marinara appetizer - For our entree, we had baked paccheri - WOW!, chicken saltimbocca and gnocchi bolognese. Food was phenomenal. We had a great view of the bartender and were very impressed - had a smoky old fashioned - beautifully presented - and an espresso martini I already cannot wait to go back for. While a bit hard to figure out how to get inside, there was ample parking and the vibe in the restaurant was energetic and welcoming. Loved the decor - and the whole evening. We live almost an hour away and we are already planning our next time to come back. Presley was our server and while a little slow to start (my husband's smoky drink was brought out about 5 minutes before mine), and ya know - that first drink is an important one :) After that tiny little issue, she was awesome. Thank you for a fabulous evening! Cannot wait to see you again soon!

Great food and ambiance. Drinks were a little slow and the music is at too loud of a volume for a fine dining restaurant in our opinion

This is consistently one of the best restaurants in Morgan Hill. From appetizer to dessert, the food was excellent. It's not cheap, but you certainly get what you pay for a more. Great ambiance, although it's a small-ish place so it can get a little loud. You will not be disappointed!
