Normally we eat here on a prix fixe menu - and vg they are. Saturday night was a celebration and a la carte: every dish was delicious, perfectly cooked, well-balanced and beautifully presented. This was not cheap but fair value for money. Wines, from the lower end of the list (except for the well-chosen dessert pairings) were also good. Service was unobtrusive, good-tempered and professional.

It was our first visit and won’t be our last. The restaurant is top notch yet cosy rather than starchy. The service was impeccable and the food was beautiful and delicious with original combinations on some classic French food.

I really enjoy my first visit to this gem of a restaurant in Primrose Hill. I was over on a quick visit (from Dublin) for a meeting close by and after much research I choose here. Odette's a fine tuned restaurant who have years of experience and it is evident from the moment you arrive. The welcome at the door by Lewis to the pleasant ambience of a buzzing restaurant. I decided to go for the set menu as I find this allows the kitchen team to showcase their skills and ability. It didn’t disappoint, but starter and main were fabulously crafted and balanced. I had a lovely glass of Bordeaux white to boot. Over all I would recommend Odette’s for lunch or dinner. You may pay a little more than other local restaurants however you actually get more for for your experience. I have lovely memories and will definitely return with family and friends again.

I have lived near Odette's for more than 40 years and have often gone there to celebrate special occasions. This last time was the best meal ever. Each course was interesting, beautifully presented and delicious. One of us has an allergy and this was handled discretely and very well. We were made to feel so welcome and we all had a relaxed and enjoyable afternoon. I can't wait to go back.

We visited Odettes on a cold Thursday evening in Feb. It was pretty quiet, but we received a warm welcome. We went with the tasting menu and wine flight. The sommelier was incredibly knowledgable and created a really relaxed and informed atmosphere. The food was absolutely first class and wine spot on. The three of us are all foodies and commented that this sort of quality food in central London would come at 2 times the price without the experience. I will 100% be back. Cannot recommend enough.

Had the taster menu and was very impressed by every dish . Portion sizes were perfect left feeling full but not stuffed. Bass cooked to perfection, super silky smooth pure (I'd love to be able to quinel as good as this) Beef again cooked to perfection, even cooked my pregnant partners more for her . Jus I'd have liked a touch thicker but that's personal preference tasted amazing. Lovely cheeses and proper bara brith. The lemon and passion fruit (going to call it posset but it wasn't that can't remember what it was actually called but similar to it) second only to the Jaffa cake . Only reason rated 4 for service was waitress seemed relatively new and a couple small thing were missed i.e removing finished drinks and not offering a new one, but that's just down to confidence and experience in serving. All in all excellent value for money. Diolch

Disappointing tasting menu. My wife is a coeliac and I informed the restaurant ahead of time that we had one gluten free diner. Rather than replace items they simply removed them from her courses which left her the odd one out - and less well fed! Service was slow and sporadic. Wouldn’t recommend.
