Square Meal review of Odette's:

Odette’s has been part of the Primrose Hill scene for many years, but was bought, revamped & given a new lease of life a couple of years ago. The look is love-it-or-hate-it trendy, a lurid mix of custard-yellow, grassy green & leafy wall motifs. The food proves less controversial, with Welshman Bryn Williams (who made his name on BBC’s Great British Menu) shaking the pans to wide applause. Influences come from all over Europe, with an especially strong French accent to the menu. There are starters of foie gras terrine with smoked duck & figs, main courses of Welsh beef fillet with caramelised shallot puree, thyme gnocchi & red wine jus, & the signature dish of pan-fried turbot with cockles & oxtail, mixing flavours from land & sea to great effect. Service is charming & the street-front tables go like hot cakes on a sunny day.

Chef: Bryn Williams

New owner Vince Power spent months searching for a head chef talented & enthusiastic enough to be given responsibility for reopening Odette’s, the popular Primrose Hill eatery, before he found Bryn Williams. Hailing from Denbigh in Wales, the masterful Williams shot to fame when he won the Great British Menu television competition on the BBC. Williams triumphed in the fish course section & went on to cook for The Queen’s birthday banquet. Over the past decade, Williams has worked under Marco Pierre White at the Criterion, Michel Roux at Le Gavroche & at Orrery, where he was senior sous chef. He was most recently at Galvin at Windows before joining Odette’s.
