Max's review of Odette's

Bryn Williams is a masterful chef with a talent for combining flavours and textures. The dishes are skillfully assembled and beautifully presented. The restaurant's wine list is well put together with some very interesting bottles at reasonable prices. The restaurant's revamped decor is warm and cozy. However the service is amateurish and approximative. In our visit it was shambolic and careless. From the moment we walked in (we booked for four and we were given a tiny table for three), to waiting for 45 minutes for someone to take our orders. We had to ask for bread and the wine list four times. With a front of house like this Williams makes a disservice to his excellent cooking. The restaurant has a lot of potential but he needs to employ professional staff. A real pity. Our suggestion: try it. Just ignore the hit-and-miss service and just enjoy some very fine food.
