Odette.

Odette brings an elevated, modern energy to downtown Florence, balancing the charm of a rustic bistro with a polished, global culinary perspective. The kitchen focuses on high-quality Southern ingredients sourced from local purveyors, but the execution leans toward a sophisticated New American style. Expect a seasonal menu that rotates frequently, featuring everything from sustainably raised meats to inventive vegetable dishes. The space itself strikes a comfortable chord with its cozy, contemporary design, offering a welcoming setting for both casual bar drinks and long-form dinners on the patio. Notably, the kitchen is highly adept at navigating dietary restrictions, providing thoughtful options for gluten-free and allergy-conscious guests without sacrificing the complexity of the flavors. It remains a reliable anchor for refined yet approachable dining in the Shoals.
