Good is perfecto, Chef and Sous Chef magnificent, service impecable and food incredible. It's the whole experience that makes this adventure very unique. 2 stars Michelin highly justified, Chef Odo will get the 3 stars soon!

Masterful cooking. It's only a counter top hidden behind a bar, but it has some of the best tasting food I've encountered.

An unforgettable experience, the food consistently tasted as good as it looked, and the looks are to die for, English be damned.

I don’t like the ingredients, they were so cheap, I don’t think it worth the price, but the service was sooooo good!

Had a great kaiseki meal which was well priced for lunch. Summer menu had lots of fresh flavors including a great soba bowl! Service was very friendly and attentive as well.

COCKROACH ALERT!!
Our party of 4 was here on July 5th at 8:30 for the kaiseki omakase. The dining was okay but a huge cockroach crawled out of the kitchen and came up right next to our counter towards the end of the meal. As expected, the staff was extremely surprised but managed to catch it right in front of us using one of our napkins. After the incident, all staffs suddenly disappeared from the dining room, went to the kitchen, and after a few minutes only our server came out and apologized. He offered to remove all drinks from the bill but we already paid for the entire meal and drinks was a fraction of the total amount we paid for the meal.
We were very disappointed the main chef never bothered to come out and help resolve the situation and they only had one of the servers address the entire situation.
Can’t believe this happened at a 2 Michelin star restaurant. We’ve been to plenty of Michelin star restaurants and never have we experienced something like this. We will never be returning back to Odo.

Unlike many other kaiseki 🇯🇵 restaurants, Odo is bolder, richer, and more vibrant in flavors. This daring approach is achieved while maintaining the core philosophy of kaiseki, which is to let the ingredients play the role they are best suited for. Lunch kaiseki offers exceptional value for a taste of Chef Hiroki Odo’s expertise.

Traditional Japanese restaurant in NYC. Everything was excellent. Except for one dish that had some fried elements and another with a more fatty American style sauce, I could tell I was having a meal in Japan.
Great kaiseki which is very authentic, traditional style with creative twists. Sashimi are all well prepared. Ainame fish clear soup was just amazing. There are so many Japanese omakase in NY, but most of them are not good at all, just imitating to be Japanese omskase style. Hospitality here is good and in a nice peaceful atmosphere. This place is a real deal, just like one of great kaiseki in Tokyo, without flying back to Japan. Highly recommended

A solid omakase experience. We paired it with the premium pairing which was a nice added touch. As with an omakase experience some dishes were better than others but over all a solid experience. I was disappointed though that there was not a special dish not on the menu from the chef. When you pay such a sum you would expect a surprise dish or two and there was zero of that happening.
Our server was knowledgeable about the dishes and the pairings. The chefs were good but seemed soulless. They did not crack a single smile and their behavior was very rigid which is I guess what you want from your kitchen crew. However I would have loved to have seen a peek of personality.

The service is top notch but the food is not memorable. At times expensive things like uni that may stand out alone are thrown into a medley that mushes their flavors into boredom. If the food cost $50 it might get 3.5 to 4 stars from me but at this price or even half the price there are so many better restaurants in the city. Michelin got this one wrong.
