We went in and service was a little slow with only one waitress until we were almost done before another server showed up. Cooks had to bring out apps - food after sitting and getting cold. Everyone was friendly and trying to help get through it so for the effort and overall food quality we will be trying it again. The Asian flavored wings were the best choice we had on the wings, ya tried the liver and it was nice and tender without any after taste with breading being crunchy. Not a huge menu but good variety. Waitress said Ruben was best in town and you cant get better burger that their house burger. Went with the Ruben and it could have possibly been the best in town if there was less of the good quality mustard. Meat was perfect and had everything done right but the strong mustard overwhelmed all the other flavors until I thinned it out some. Had chicarones that waitress said were fresh made at restaurant, had light dipping sauce that went well with them wish there was more after sharing most of them. Fish was very tender and flaked apart. Mac and cheese was good, not a heavy amount of cheese possibly just two different types of cheese in it. Overall prices were average for downtown casual, salad looked to be high price but we didnt order and I just noticed the price hoping no one would order one.

Staff are friendly, but on busy nights, seem to be overwhelmed so it takes a while to get drinks, order in, etc. Ambience is inviting, hovering just above casual. The tables are covered in maps, which is a nice distraction while waiting for service. My husband and I have been here a few times, because we really want to like it — thinking we are ordering the wrong thing, but we’ve decided to give up! The chef really needs to taste the food before sending it out. Both the mac & cheese from a previous evening there, and the gnocchi with bison recently, have had such watery, tasteless sauce — it is surprising! They lack so much flavor. The poutine is our regular favorite — but how much of that can you really eat? The sauce with many meaty tips is superb — thick and full of flavor! I imagined the sauce on the gnocchi to be similar, but it was nothing like it and filled with more mushrooms than meat. The arugula was sparse, and I wished for more of the tasty fried onions on top. My glass of wine was nice, and they have a great selection of beer. But the menus are printed like glossy brochures, from a design standpoint — a turn off!

The only reason I gave this 2 stars is because the bloody Marys were stellar. Other than that, service was horrible. We ordered the salmon avacado dip which would have been great..... IF the pita bread wasnt completely soaked in olive oil. I wish I could have asked for plain pita bread but no one ever even asked how our food was. In fact, no one came to our table except for 4 seconds to take our order. I understand if maybe its Saturday and u are understaffed or something, but that was not the case here..... We watched our server stand around and flirt with the cooks and the rest of the staff when she could have checked in with us AT LEAST one time. Its a shame too because I would have ordered more food and hung out for a bit if the service didnt suck so bad.... Its ok Ill spend my money somewhere else

Odyssey didnt have a good impression on my first time having brunch! I ordered the breakfast burrito, and asked if I could have sausage instead of bacon, she said yes! I get my burrito and of course it has bacon! I o up to the bar and tell her, she doesnt say anything I head back to my table. I double checked it was bacon, and I showered her, she asked if I wanted a new one, I said no my friend already has her food and I dont want to wait again for more food. Ill just deal with it... the ticket comes out and I was charged for my burrito and it also said no bacon on my ticket! I wasnt excepting my meal to be free, but taking some off my bill would have been nice, for the mess up and inconvenience of putting bacon in my meal when I didnt want it at all!

A great spot for brunch, lunch, dinner, drinks, or a date involving any of the former. Real thought has gone into the menu, while not extensive it offers good variety. The standouts for me are: the bacon sampler, which impresses in being able to bring out different flavors without being overpowering or cloying, and the reuben, which is savory and succulent. The drinks and cocktails are usually good, but the deconstructed sangria did not do it for me. Some people may like fruits in orange liqueur but I personally was not a fan. That being said, I have enjoyed many of their original cocktails and am confident that there is one for everyone on the menu.

I loved Odyssey Gastropub so much that my husband and I ate there three nights in a row. We just moved to the area and rode our borrowed bikes down to eat dinner and have some drinks but we stupidly forgot a bike lock. The staff at Odyssey gladly watched over our bikes for a short time while we ate. The food was absolutely delightful and open at later hours, which was fantastic for us because we were working late on our new house. The bartender, Seth, was very assertive and right on top of what ever we needed. Fantastic IPAs! I recommend the salmon avocado appetizer with capers. Such a delish combo I went back again again. 100% YUM!

Wow, this place was pretty much horrible. 1pm on a Monday, it took 2 hours to eat and get our check for brunch. We had no assigned server, the food that came was underwhelming. "The sandwhich" was extremely bland, as was the salmon benedict. The brunch tacos were decent, but im pretty sure I could make that at home. Once we were ready to leave, I handed our server our credit card. He seriously completely forgot to run the card, 25 minutes passed, and I just went up there and basically made him do it. He said he would talk to his manager, but at that point we just wanted to leave. I gave a poor tip and left. Will not be back.

I meet my sister here for dinner one evening. Gotta say Im a big fan! The first time I went I had the Mahi Mahi Street Tacos. The second time - a couple days later - I had the Buffalo Chicken Club, but turned into a wrap. It was sooooooo delicious!! They also have a unique and large selection of alcoholic drinks that I find absolutely yummy. The diversity of their drinks is enough to make me go there. Great selection of interesting brews. Any place with beers like "Rogue Dead Guy", "Dudes Brews Ryeot Rye Ale", or "EPIC escape to Colorado IPA" has got to be awesome right? Go there!! Now!!

Every time Ive come here its gotten progressively worse. The first day I really liked it. They have an awesome bacon platter. But the next time I came ther service was very very slow and my girlfriends meal was comped because she was not happy with it. They 3rd time I came the survive was horrible. The waitress we had was very unfriendly, when she asked how it was and we told her of our complaints she simply said ok, and walked away. For the price of the food and the lack of friendly service I will not be coming here again. 503W is much better craft beer bar and eatery in my opinion
