We love going out to eat at any time of the year, but something about winter makes a restaurant meal even more appealing. This restaurant in downtown Hastings is a cozy spot that serves only the best in comfort food, and it’s bound to become your favorite winter dining destination.
Odyssey opened in downtown Hastings in early 2016. The unassuming little spot may look like just another storefront…

…But the interior is chic, sophisticated, and cozy all at once.

The small dining area is quite intimate and comfortable. You’ll be able to converse comfortably without shouting over dozens of other guests.

Why not order some bruschetta to nibble on while you take a look around the menu? It comes in eight varieties - Florentine, smoked salmon, and bacon, to name a few - and you can order just one or get a whole board full of options.

Odyssey also offers a full bar, so a pre-dinner drink is a logical next step. Whether you’re into whiskey, wine, or frozen, fruity concoctions, pick your pleasure and relax as you sip.

When you’re ready to order, prepare yourself for some truly comforting comfort food. Craving some greens (and a lot more)? The dinner menu lists five types of salad; they all come in full or half portions.

Just take a look at this incredible stuffed meatloaf. It’s made of ground beef and pork, wrapped with bacon, and stuffed with smoked gouda. We probably gained a couple of pounds just looking at the picture.

You’ll find plenty of familiar dishes here, but with a New American twist.

Seafood, pork, steak, and pasta are all served with elevated garnishes and accompaniments that make each dish truly memorable.

These flavors are complex without being fussy while the restaurant itself is sophisticated yet comfortable.

The dessert menu is small, but on point. Get the creme brulee du jour, cheesecake du jar, or a giant chocolate chip cookie a la mode. Don’t fret over your decision - they’re ALL fabulous.

Reservations at Odyssey are strongly recommended. While it’s possible to get a walk-in table, you may have to wait several hours. Check out the restaurant’s website to make a reservation or its Facebook page to learn more about the incredible comfort food that’s just waiting for you there.
