My office building is near the Odeon and I'd been wanting to visit for a while due to its classic French style, high end history, and cozy decor. I was not disappointed. This place feels high end, from the service to the atmosphere. It was pretty busy on a Thursday at 12. Our server was delightful and conversational. I ordered a Croque Mousieur with shoestring fries $27. The melted cheese was so good and the fact that it was cut into four bite sized pieces made it a quick and easy eat, which was great because I had to head back to work after my lunch break. They also have outdoor seating which is super convenient when the weather is nice!

Ubiquitous French Onion Soup - 3/14/2026

The ODEON 14th March 2026 Yes, I was here back in the 1980s, a kid with my friends, we would hang out here after hours with our French restaurant comrades. Oh, we were so chic in our designer garb. Spending summers in the south of France. Speaking French to the waiters. I loved it all. Simpler times yes, I love the Odeon. The Odeon is iconic New York. Propriétér, Keith McNally, whose memoir I am currently reading, brought the French Bistro trend back in the day to lower Manhattan, also at the time, Anthony Bourdain of Les Halles. Which was another hangout of ours, but unfortunately gone now. It's great to see the Odeon still here 40 years later. Going strong. Très Chic. Très French. Très Fun. Only more tourists are arriving by busloads due to the popularity of LOVE STORY (about JFK Jr and Carolyn Bessette on FX currently). Thanks, Ryan Murphy. 5 Stars still.

Salmon with salad
Al H.

This place is from what I remember back in the 1980's. Located in Tribeca, this restaurant was in the middle of nowhere. Soho was a loft district, becoming an artist enclave and Tribeca was a former industrial area in transition. Not a lot has changed inside, from what I can see. The food, however is better than ever. I had the boeuf bourguignon. The beef was like buddah. Rich gravy, beef broth with carrots, mushrooms, onions. I loved it. Even my wife's salad, I mean, how good can a salad be, was delicious. She had it with a nice salmon. Service was prompt and efficient. The vibes from the decor are where Pastis designers may have drawn inspiration. A New York icon, to be sure.

The Odeon has definitely been around for a while now, but this is actually my first time here. I got seated outdoors, and I enjoyed it given that it's a summer night. I had the Wagyu fries and as part of the Wagyu, I had garlic butter. I found that I really enjoyed the steak, but what stood out to me was the fries! I definitely felt like it was seasoned well

The Odeon is one of those classic NYC spots that feels timeless the moment you step inside. Cozy seating? Definitely. A little tight? Absolutely. But honestly, it's part of the charm--exactly what you'd expect from a true New York institution. We kicked things off with the French onion soup, and it was phenomenal: rich, deeply savory broth and a glorious layer of melty cheese that made every spoonful comfort in a bowl. The salmon that followed was a bit on the fishier side for my taste, but the tender, perfectly cooked steak frites completely saved the day. And whatever you do, don't skip dessert. The crème brûlée was absolute perfection: silky custard with that satisfying crack of caramelized sugar on top. Service was friendly and attentive, and despite the lively Tribeca buzz, the space manages to feel family friendly, warm, and welcoming. The Odeon remains a quintessential NYC dining experience!

"The Odeon is an iconic, long-standing French-American brasserie in New York City's TriBeCa neighborhood, known for its classic dishes, Art Deco bar, and lively, "decadent" atmosphere that has made it a city institution since the 1980s, famously featured in Bright Lights, Big City. It's celebrated for its French onion soup, steak frites, and cocktails like the Cosmopolitan, offering a quintessential downtown dining experience with both indoor and outdoor seating. " I can't think of a better place to meet up for breakfast, lunch, brunch or dinner than The Odeon. I love the ambience and feel of this place and the downtown vibe is for me. Think about it, it's 9pm and you feel like having an omelet or a steak or a salad Nicoise, where else? Or sipping a cocktail at a long Art Deco bar.. where else? Let's talk food.. love the Veggie and Yellowfin Tuna Burger, building my own omelette, French Onion soup with a Caesar salad. The desserts are classic.. Creme Brulee, Sticky Toffee Pudding, Sugar Doughnuts and their homemade ice cream. The next love.. the dining room. Que puis-je dire ? ( what else can I say). The interior is cozy and sometimes tight, featuring red booths and a high-energy, candlelit ambiance. The booths are spacious and good seating for people watching. The room has a definite European vibe. Rochelle and I met up for lunch today and decided to build our own omelette. One can choose three ingredients from ham, Cheddar, spinach, mushrooms, Gruyere, tomatoes and onions and choose soft, medium or well. The side is salad or fries. I chose the Gruyere, spinach and onion with fries, Rochelle chose tomato, cheddar and cucumber with salad. We enjoyed our omelette very much and shared fries and salad. I ordered bottomless cup of coffee. For dessert, summertime weather in Spring, we ordered ice cream. Vanilla and mint chocolate chip hit the spot. The service is excellent, courteous and very accommodating. Shout out to Angelina for great service. If you are looking to have a long meal with a great dining vibe, The Odeon is THE place.

Crispy Calamari
Tracy F.

Appetizers - Crispy Calamari - can't go wrong with calamari. Crispy, chewy and paired with the perfect dip. Salmon Tartar - perfectly diced salmon with avocado. Entrees- Moules Frites - a little disappointed with the mussels. It wasn't flavorful enough and almost each of them had shells inside Steak Frites - perfectly juiced steak paired with the BEST fries. Dessert - Crème brûlée - ended dinner with the best dessert! It was perfectly burnt and caramelized. We finished this in five minutes.

French Onion Soup
Andrew L.

Had not been to The Odeon for a long time and returned for dinner on a Friday evening. The restaurant was very, very busy but they were able to seat us within a few minutes of our reservation time. The food was okay - we had the French Onion Soup, Salmon Tartare, Croque Monsieur and Flank Frites and for dessert, the Profiteroles. None really stood out but not bad. Our server Sabrina was friendly and helpful, the atmosphere was very lively but a bit hectic.

Steak Frites w/Garlic Butter
Brendan T.

An NYC and American Classic. As iconic a restaurant as any other in the city, with a storied history, that nevertheless has seamlessly remained relevant for over 4 decades, an astonishing acheivement for a New York City restaurant. Somehow I nearly made it a full 20 years as an NYC resident before dining here, but I've surely made up for lost time over the past couple of years and now will go here at any chance I am lucky enough to get. While the burger is justifiably beloved, and you in fact really can't go wrong with anything on the classic American Brasserie menu of refined Americana my go-to order here is most often the Steak Frites which features a reliably perfect, impeccably marbled and lusciously charred New York Strip along with the legendary house fries, on most everyone worth taking seriously's shortlist of the best in the city. It's also quite likely my overall personal favorite steak in the city currently. For an uncharge, it's offered sauced with a few of the different classics, namely au poivre, garlic butter, Béarnaise, or Roquefort. Again, you can't go wrong with any preparation or lack thereof , I generally opt for the sauce on a ramekin on the side, the better to appreciate the perfectly prepared steak on it's own, and adding the sauce sparingly as well as leaving some to dip the fries in. On the occasions I'm convinced to stray from my beloved steak it's often times on account of a particularly beguiling special, like a deliciously vibrant pasta special w/asparagus, spring peas. artichoke on a rainy early spring day, beautifully highlighting the farmers markets bounty of the moment. There's also wonderful classic daily specials for each day of the week like a delectable Sunday Chicken Pot Pie. I would highly recommend if possible, if dining alone or with one other friend or partner sitting at the gorgeous, classic bar. Not only will you get to appreciate being in the hands of likely the most professional and charming bar staff in Manhattan, making some of the best cocktails, but you will also be exceedingly likely to have the opportunity to get into a interesting and/or wild conversation with a classic New York character, quite possibly a famous or infamous one at that. While the prices certainly come off as cheap in the eyes of many, other than perhaps the fabulously wealthy and glamorous residents of it's surrounding Tribeca neighborhood, perhaps the most clout-coveted precinct of them all, considering it's location in said hood, it actually does kind of rate as a square deal.

Here's the rundown: - naan: recommend this, though maybe overhyped myself based on previous reviews. The yogurt sauce was delish, but the bread itself was very good but not mind blowing. - BLT salad: dark horse fav! Tons of flavor and I kept going back for more. Recommend as an app - Union Square bento: honestly, wish this came in a real bento box. Seems like a miss, but I suppose separate plates give you more volume. Good to add as a side to whatever else you get. Cabbage was the best of the trio. - rice bowl: squash and rice were solid, but the shrimp was the standout here! Very flavorful shrimp. Not sure how they packed so much flavor into the little bites of them - fried chicken thighs: I mean, yes. They're juicy. They're fried excellently. The side sauces are creative and great for vinegar-lovers like me I also got the carrot cocktail which was ultra smooth and had the right amount of dill flavor. We got two cookies to go which were divine. I'd get them to stay to try it with the oolong milk next time, but we had to run. The service was friendly, courteous. Ambiance was trendy but not uptight. Would recommend for a nicer night out

For the desserts, the cookie was my favorite - a warm chocolate chip cookie with bits of pretzel, paired with an oat milk tea for dipping. The dirt was nice and chocolate but a bit too salty for my taste, and the sticky date cake with rice pudding was nice but a bit unmemorable. My friends also tried the rice porridge, pimento cheese sandwich, cinnamon roll, and cornbread which they seemed to enjoy. The total came to around $200 for the five of us - pricey given that one of the people didn't order an entree. I'm glad I got to try the interesting and creative fusion dishes.

During my recent visit to New York, Don Angie was easily the hardest reservation to make. Right…read morewhen reservations dropped, they were snatched away by bots in seconds. That said, if you're somehow lucky enough to secure a reservation, you're in for a treat. My wife and I had a 6:30 p.m. reservation but we were able to get seated early at 6:15 p.m. The inside is super dark and extremely loud, so if you're looking for a intimate place to hang-out for a first date, this isn't the best spot. The crowd here is honestly a bit obnoxious as well: lots of loud, over-served patrons bellowing Happy Birthday songs were present during our visit. Moving on to the actual food, my wife and I decided to forego their famous baked lasagna dish. We've watched enough influencers and YouTube reviewers to pretty much understand exactly how it would taste, and for that reason, went with a side of Japanese sweet potatoes and two pasta dishes: the buffalo milk caramelle and the sourdough pasta cacciatore. To start, we selected the chrysanthemum salad as well as the stuffed garlic flatbread. Across the board, the food was delicious. The garlic flatbread reminded me of an artichoke dip and had a very satisfying cheese pull. This is a dish you'll want to enjoy quickly before the cheese re-solidifies. The pasta dishes here are truly spectacular and tasted like nothing I've ever tried before. The buffalo milk caramelle wrapper was perfectly al dente and the inside was rich and creamy. The candied kumquats in the sweet sauce added a nice citrus note and actually paired really well with the Japanese sweet potatoes. If you don't enjoy sweet items, you may want to skip over this dish because the sweetness is anything but subtle. The texture of the sourdough pasta had a unique bounce to it that I haven't encountered before with pasta. The oversized Sicilian olives in the dish are a lot mild than your typical olives in terms of sourness and tanginess and provide a nice texture contrast more than anything. The chicken is buttery tender: genuinely impressed that they were able to achieve this type of texture. While food was incredible, it took a very, very long time for food to exit the kitchen. After our initial salad and flatbread, it was another 30 minutes of waiting before our pastas arrived. We were not checked on by our waitress at all during this period. I observed the same issue with our adjacent tables. Overall, I had a solid experience at Don Angie and would dine here again. If you're coming with a smaller group, I wouldn't hesitate to forego the $72 viral baked lasagna pin-wheels for two, and order a bunch of other pastas to share.

We ordered: - stuffed garlic flatbread…read more- chrysanthemum salad - sourdough pasta cacciatore - lasagna for two - chicken scarpariello - Japanese sweet potatoes The food was very cheesy.

I did like the Japanese sweet potatoes and the chicken. The chicken had a crispy top, which was a decent touch. The place does get busy and there's tight seating due to the limited reservations.

I'm so bummed because I wanted to be part of the cool kids club who hails the burger as one of NY's best. I very badly wanted to like it, so I felt more disappointed in myself than the restaurant. I found it very salty, so much so that I couldn't finish it. Perhaps it was the egg I added, or maybe my order was a one off, if the person who prepared it had a heavier hand. So take my opinion with a grain of salt (but not the burger, it has plenty). I'm definitely the minority here.

We actually stumbled into Tanner Smith's thinking it'd be the typical, boring bar-food spot. Nope. They first sat us at a hi-top by the door, but that wasn't our vibe, so we grabbed seats at the bar instead. Best decision. Our bartender, Josiah, was absolutely killing it.

Every single dip was so delicious I wanted to take some home. The layers of flavor were amazing, and it was impossible to stop eating it with the freshly baked pita!

A lively, upscale-casual…read moreMediterranean restaurant in a somewhat unexpected location, but they more than make up for it with atmosphere, energy, and some seriously memorable dishes. Not every plate was a hit, but the standouts were SO good that we'd absolutely return. We made a 6:30 PM Saturday reservation to celebrate our sixth wedding anniversary. I'll admit, the location initially threw me off. It has a somewhat corporate feel, tucked between buildings near the Lincoln Tunnel Expressway on Manhattan's West Side. But once you're there, the buzzing patio and lively atmosphere win you over. Great for date night, dinner with friends, business meals, large groups, or a pre-event meal. A wide age range and a crowd that feels like it's hitting on all cylinders. Bonus points for a thoughtful anniversary card waiting for us when we sat down. Such a sweet touch! We skipped cocktails after a full afternoon of drinking, but more than made up for it with the food. The menu is designed for sharing. What we ordered: * Fattoush salad | 3/5: A creative spin on the classic, topped with pita, thinly sliced Honeycrisp apples, and candied pecans. The apples and especially the pecans overwhelmed the dish for me. I'd love to see more vegetables and fewer sweet toppings. Prefer a traditional fattoush, but this was fine. Need 1/4 the amount of pecans given * Tuna tartare | 1/5: Unfortunately, the one miss of the evening. The description with cucumber, figs, and cardamom sounded incredible, but the dish fell completely flat. The cucumber purée had an almost gel-like texture, and the tuna didn't taste fresh to us. We sent it back. More acidity, spice, and sumac could help, but the freshness and texture were the bigger issues. * Octopus carpaccio | 5/5: STUNNING. I usually gravitate toward a cooked octopus tentacle, but this preparation with fennel absolutely won me over. One of my favorite dishes of the night. * Pita: Thick, soft, and delicious. We went through two baskets! An excellent vehicle for the dips and appetizers, but honestly good enough to enjoy on its own. * Little gems | 3/5: Served with za'atar crumbs and roasted grapes. The grapes initially threw me off, but the combination worked surprisingly well. A creative salad I really enjoyed, but $19 for some leaves, breadcrumb & grapes is pushing it * Manti | 5/5: Little wonton-like dumplings stuffed with spiced beef, served over garlicky labneh with oven-dried tomatoes. Absolutely delicious. A must-order for us. * Crispy latkes | 5/5: Everyone should order these. Perfectly crispy with a lovely thyme finish. An excellent side that deserves its own spotlight. * Charred broccoli: A very generous portion served with cashew harissa that packed some heat. So tasty that I accidentally ate the entire side myself... oops. Bottom line: Zou Zou's is worth a visit for the atmosphere alone, and do need to return to have actual entrees. The tuna tartare was a miss, and the fattoush wasn't my favorite, but the octopus carpaccio, manti, latkes, and broccoli more than made up for it. Add in thoughtful service touches and a lively, versatile setting, and we left happy.
