   I took friends for Birthday dinner. They had never been at Odette's before. We enjoyed the piano, the drinks, service and food all were excellent. Anxious to return soon

   Beautiful restaurant and an outstanding menu. Service was a bit slow at times, and it was unusually noisy this afternoon due to a wedding party. Our second time dining here and I look forward to going back.

   Lovely new building, sitting on the river is perfect on a warm sunny evening. Staff friendly and attentive. I had the scallops, requested raw spinach instead of wilted and the kitchen accommodated me. My husband tried the cauliflower steak. We each enjoyed our dinner but neither was exceptional. Skip desert! The cheesecake reminded me of vending machine fair. My favorite companion experimented with strawberry rhubarb cake, something he had never eaten and said based upon that experience would probably never eat again. All in all a fine time.

   Advised that we would be celebrating my husband’s bday when I made the reservation two weeks ago. Unfortunately, we were sat at a two person table, which was up against the wall in the bar area. The location was absolutely horrible. Luckily my husband asked if he’s could move us outside on the deck, which was partially covered from the rain. I’m so happy he did. We had more space and could hold a conversation without listening to all the happenings around us (there was a wedding taking place too). We enjoyed our dining experience, but no one ever asked if we were celebrating anything special nor did anyone ever acknowledge the note in the system about celebrating his bday. We spent around $216 at this place, so one would think we might have received some sort of acknowledgment of why we were there in the first place. Oh, well!

    Had a reservation 7:45, was not seated until 8:15pm and at a really bad table located right next to a pole. Asked to be moved. Then waited another 10 mins for a server to come and greet us. While atmosphere is beautiful, the service was slow and the food was slightly above average, except for the butter cake, it was amazing. I don’t want to blast anyone because i understand its is hard to find help these days, but for the price of the evening, ($300) for two people, i would have expected a much better dining experience. I will say the bartender was very pleasant and helpful and the server was also very pleasant, they seemed to be well staffed but not being managed very well.

    Party of four- two dinners were served 1hour(not hyperbole) before the others. Server checked in at 30 mins- their food was ice cold and all dinners arrived an hour later- 1.5 hrs from the initial two plates being served. I would never go back!

    We sat outside overlooking the river. we were concerned it would be too chilly but were assured with the heaters we would be fine -actually, it was a bit chilly. The server was a good guy, but the service for a monday lunch was quite slow and the 10 mins spent at the bar while waiting to be seated there was no bartender. Apparently they were unusually busy. Great location, food was pretty good. I would go back.

    What started out with good cocktails and a great view of the Delaware River ended up with being served cold food that was returned to the kitchen, long waits between courses (and the "reheated" food), and no substantial compensation other than $22.00 off of a $260 bill for dinner (side salad and two cappuccinos). Appetizers and entrees recommended by the waiter either had no taste or were cold as previously stated. I would only recommended the place for cocktails and a nice view of the Delaware River. Avoid the entrees as they are not worth the price. Also avoid valet parking as they charge $20 after 6 PM.

    I made reservations at this restaurant 2 months prior to Mother's Day to take my mom and grandma to brunch. I wanted to do something nice for them and walk around town afterwards. This would be our first time there. When I made the reservation and when it was confirmed ( a few days prior), I was never informed that it would be a buffet. I had also checked social media and the website, where it did not say anything. I had assumed it would be a normal brunch menu, as that is what the restaurant offers on Sundays. The restaurant is beautiful, but I was extremely disappointed that buffet was the ONLY option when we sat down. The food was very average...and I personally feel buffet's are definitely not ideal as Covid is still an issue. The service was sub par, especially since the only thing that had to be done was drink orders and plate clearing. Once the bill came, the experience went from frustrating to infuriating. The cost per person for the buffet was $67.00, never did I think a restaurant would charge that insane amount of money for a plate of eggs and pastries. Needless to say I will not be going back.

    We have been to Odette's several times since it has opened for various occassions and have been completely satisfied! Last night was no exception. After seraching for a local reservation on a Friday afternoon, I found one available at Odette's at a reasonable hour. We arrived and were sat in the lounge area which was awesome. There was music with a piano player and female vocalist and the music was a perfect end to the week. The evening had begun. The lighting and energy was perfect as well. We ordered. French onion soup for me and a ceasar salad for my husband. I had to tell Lizzy that the soup was amazing. The cheese was perfectly melted and floating gently on top, held by a delicious round crouton. The broth was perfectly filled with onions and extremely tasty. ( I have worked as a prep cook and have prepared French Onion soup and this was extraordinary!) Salmon and Pork Loin rounded out our meals and these were cooked to perfection. The night ended with a final song and we quickly picked up our car from valet. Perfection is the name of Odette's service, food quality, service and atmosphere! We cannot wait to do it again.

    The ambience is outstanding. The service was terrific. The noise level (they had a singer) was a little on the high side. The food was OK. Certainly not worth the high price charged. Despite this I would recommend it to a friend with these comments.

    This is a valet only restaurant! So prepare for that. Then you take the elevator up to the dining level. You are greeted with amazing decor and lighting! The was live piano music which was so calming. There were full length windows/doors to a deck overlooking the Delaware River. We were greeted by lovely hostesses and they took us to our table inside but still had views of the River. Gorgeous! We started with cocktails and they were on point! Our brunch was yummy! I had steak and eggs and my friend has the fish tacos. Everything was scrumptious and presented beautifully. We sat and relaxed with another drink. Our waiter was attentive and polite. We then walked up the outside ramp to the patio /dining bar outside with a burning fireplace and pillow covered couches! Lovely! We will return for sure!

    Absolutely gorgeous property & views!! Great bartenders & wait staff. However, the food is just mediocre and skimpy ... like not enough cocktail sauce for 4 shrimp and when they say the scallops come with puree sweet potatoes you expect more than a decorative swirl on the plate! The mandatory $20 valet fee is excessive alone but you have to give your ticket to the waiter so it added to your bill where it's very easy to tip on it too! We were 3 couples in separate cars .... that's $60 right there before you get to your table!!! Not sure we'll be back until that goes away and they at least get a new chef.

    The food isn't sufficiently seasoned. I had the escargot that came in a bowl 'seasoned' with garlic butter. The serving was generous, but I tasted zero garlic and the chef must have been concerned about my non-existent high blood pressure because no salt was used. The health of patrons is not a matter for a kitchen staff to address. Make the food taste good. Also, the pappardelle with brisket lacked seasoning. The brisket itself was seasoned, in other words had enough salt, but the pasta was not cooked in sufficiently salted water. The lack of salt in food prep has become a big problem and any one foolish enough to pay hundreds of dollars for near flavorless food is a fool. Revisit the playbook for good food and service, read the cookbook and if the recipe unforgivably says 'add a pinch' it better be a 1/2 teaspoon, minimum. The server was pleasant and tried hard, but didn't no much about food. Finding help is hard these days so I understand hiring just about anyone. However, let the young, less skilled and knowledgeable servers know that when posed with a question about a dish, it's ok for them to say they don't know. They can always ask back in the kitchen and return with a correct answer. We'll return again, but you only get one more chance to overcome the culinary misstep of insufficient flavor.

    Its a beautiful restaurant inside with a fabulous view of the river. Waitstaff is great. Food is not very good. Steak in the steak frites was way under cooked and tough. Could hardly cut it. Kitchen might have been overtaxed with a wedding and a couple of big parties but the steak is served cut in half and somebody should have noticed how undercooked it was. Also, charging $20 for valet parking, which is your only option, on top of a pricey dinner bill is really too much. Go for drinks. Enjoy the view. Eat someplace else.

    The food is very good but for the prices you pay more food should show up on your plate. Our server was very attentive but we had one lady who brought out food and she didn't even smile or say hi. Again for a place such as this there should be smiles and friendliness abounding. Your customers make or break you. But overall it was a lovely evening. Great music

    Noted in reservation and to no less than 3 employees including, bartender, server that it was our 1st wedding anniversary and that it was at Riverhouse… and received nothing more than a congratulations. Underwhelmed with the attention to detail in general at the restaurant/ bar for the prices because the quality of food and ingredients, while good, certainly don’t justify it.
