    Very odd menu in French with little to no explanation written. Hostess was very sweet and the service was excellent.. Food seemed more Deutsch than French. No atmosphere.

    Our server on a busy Monday Holiday was efficient, attentive, and personable. Some in our party have been going to the Odeon since the early 00s and remarked the quality has remained steadfast. Every staff person we interacted with was confident in their role and a great communicator, which allows you to relax and have confidence that you’re in good hands. Will be back again and again.

    From the plus-perfect martinis to the unforgettable steak tartare to the ethereal dover sole Stephan Bocket's Chez Catherine remains the quintessential French dining venue in this area. How this incredible restaurant has escaped Michelin's Guide remains a mystery. If you haven't experienced this one yet - give yourself a grand treat. Barbara & Sheldon Roskin Scotch Plains,NJ

    Always a joy to spend time at Sophie’s with incredible food and amazing cocktails… comfort, class and style without the pretense. Genuinely good people providing great service in an irreplaceable gem of an establishment. Franklin Township is lucky indeed.
