When choosing this location in 2005, we instantly fell in love with the charm and history that the building offered. Walking up the front steps you hear the creak of the original floor boards, and as you enter through the large Colonial doors you may find yourself twisting the old fashioned hand crank doorbell. Every detail of the building is historical, and every picture hanging on the wall gives you a glimpse of what life was like in the 1800’s.Along with our passion for keeping history alive, we also have an even greater passion for food. We only use the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients when crafting our dishes. Not only are we preserving the history of Liberty Corner, we are becoming part of the history too.Voted one of the Top 100 Al Fresco Dining Restaurants in the Country by OpenTable in 2015. Offering four separate dining rooms, you are sure to enjoy the atmosphere, along with your delicious meal. We look forward to being with you soon. We are a BYOB establishment.

Strip steak was excellent, but it should be for the price and the portion size. There is no more complementary bread basket – you need to pay $16 for Parker house rolls dessert which was the apple cobbler was missing the whipped cream.

The food and service are always OUTSTANDING at The Odeon! Today, I want to call attention to our server's attention to detail, which was spot-on excellent! She must have observed my dining companion opening his birthday card, or overheard us talking....but when dessert arrived, it came with a lit birthday candle and heartfelt congratulations : ) THANK YOU!

MV is one of the best restaurants in the area for special occasions. Their food quality and service is tremendous. The menu selection is very large and if you cannot find it, they can probably make it for you. Their prices are high but that is why I only go there a couple of times every few months. Love the place and recommend this restaurant always.
