About ODÉ Bistro

On O’Connell Street, ODÉ Bistro delivers ambitious East-meets-West tasting menus in an intimate, easygoing dining room without white-tablecloth pretension. Regulars praise the Feed Me option, where plates arrive with casual tableside breakdowns directly from the floor team and the head chef. Think king prawn tacos, chicken ravioli with chilli oil, and dry-aged wagyu crowned with garlic miso beside velvety mashed potatoes. Dinner finishes on a Basque cheesecake balanced by tart raspberry sorbet.

  • East-West Tasting Menus: Courses fuse Eastern ingredients and Western techniques, from garlic miso wagyu to chilli oil chicken ravioli.
  • Tableside Dish Introductions: The kitchen and floor staff personally describe the ingredients and cooking methods as plates land.
  • Warm, Unpretentious Vibe: An unpretentious, dimly lit setting that suits date nights and celebratory milestones without stiff formality.

  • Atmosphere Built for Meaningful Milestones

    An intimate dining room and thoughtful pacing create an inviting environment tailored for milestone birthdays, wedding anniversaries, and date nights.

    The atmosphere in the restaurant was relaxed, cozy, and very inviting — the music and ambiance were perfect for a celebration.

  • Inventive East-West Menu Craftsmanship

    Multi-course Feed Me and degustation menus merge classical Western culinary methods with Eastern flavor elements to craft inventive dishes.

    Very subtle usage of fusion elements which resulted in a complex but refined flavour profile.

  • Harmonious and Layered Flavor Depth

    Every course presents layered combinations and textural surprises across starters, proteins, and desserts without flavor repetition.

    The flavors were complex and varied—there was absolutely no repetition in taste across the courses.

Signature chef-curated courses and standout savory plates

  • Dry Aged Steak

    Excellent steak, beautiful crust and uniform doneness with the perfect serving temperature up to the last bite. The garlic miso was the cherry on top umami bomb that elevated the flavour to another level but did not overpower the natural rich beefy flavour of the dry aged steak.

  • King Prawn Tacos

    King prawn tacos and the chicken ravioli were excellent though the others were quite good as well.

  • Feed Me Menu

    We chose the “Feed Me” menu option and it was fantastic — we were completely full by the end and enjoyed every course.

  • Beef Tartare

    Meanwhile, the beef tartare, adorned with nduja, forest cherry, pearl onion, and potato chips, emerged as a standout dish—a culinary masterpiece that tantalized the taste buds with its bold and innovative flavors.

  • Shallot Bread

    Personal recommendation would be to save the shallot bread for large plates to soak up the delicious juices of the roast chicken & steak.

Before you head over

Practical dining advice to maximize your meal and tasting experience.

  • Opt for the Feed Me or tasting menu

    Pair the Feed Me or multi-course tasting menu with tableside introductions to get the full story behind the fusion techniques and ingredients without navigating the à la carte list.

  • Save your bread for the mains

    Hold onto the shallot bread or order extra bread early to mop up rich tarragon and roast meat jus from the larger plates.

  • Notify in advance for vegetarian options

    The kitchen accommodates vegetarian guests on set tasting menus, but notify staff ahead of time or upon booking so custom multi-course courses can be seamlessly arranged.
