I’m already thinking of going back—yes! I love their attention to detail. They don’t overload the dishes with seasoning or sauces, and each course is prepared with the freshest ingredients and exceptional skill. From start to finish, the entire meal was outstanding. Their service and the thoughtful descriptions of each course were impossible to miss. They truly bring Japan to NYC. I would say they’re on their way to becoming a three-star restaurant, slowly but surely.

A 2 Michelin star restaurant that deserves it’s 3rd star! Chef Hiroki Odo orchestrates the most wonderful symphony of tastes I’ve ever had. All in a Zen atmosphere!!

Odo Omakase: Our Anniversary Odo is a triptych of transformation, and my boyfriend and I experienced its magic firsthand for our one-year anniversary.

My husband booked a lunch tasting at Odo to celebrate my birthday, and the experience was wonderful. The food and service were both amazing, and we also learned some new and interesting facts about kaiseki cuisine. Every course was delicious, and we truly felt it was worth the price.

Hard to reserve, but reservations are far more obtainable for lunch seating.
