We popped in without reservation, great meal, reasonable prices for premium food, wanted to give a 4 star because after a long wait we never received any desert/coffee menus after our mains so left without! Loved that although there were plenty of high chairs available there was not a child in sight. (We were dining without our three children!! ) great place!!!
Friendly staff, great location with impressive views.
Can recommend the bugs and the grilled cauliflower:) yum. The chocolate/orange desert was to die for
We will definitely be back
The location is sensational, but the food is devine! This is the second time I have experienced Odyssea and I just can't go past the delicious main meal of Kangaroo. Perfect in every way. On both occasions I have visited, my companions have raved about their meals. Would highly recommend Odyssea (especially for dinner time to enjoy a cocktail, a delicious meal and watch the sun set over the Indian Ocean)
What a fantastic NYE! Thank you to all the staff for making our night so special. Everyone was super professional, helpful and attentive. The food and drinks were fantastic and the venue was beautifully decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed dancing to the band, and loved the fireworks! A great atmosphere all night. Our only comment from one of our group was that coffee might be available for guests on request. Highly recommend!
Went for breakfast; the ricotta dumplings are to die for! Service was great; and the view is spectacular! Will be back �
Great service from the Welsh waiter that was on duty yesterday and also others than brought our wine. Great to have a stylish beach venue that’s dog friendly (outside tables). Octopus and broad beans, Parmesan/truffle potatoes and the salmon salad were great. The souffra is also yum (Greek custard filo cake). No complaints.
The lamb dish my wife had was a great looking plate and tasted as good as it looked. My beef cheeks with truffle was super delish. Service was aslo great. We will be back.
Nothing but good things to say about this restaurant! From the moment we walked in the door until we left we were 100% happy with everything from the friendly staff, the service,ambiance & last of all great breakfast & coffee .. highly recommend 👍👏

Great food/wine/service matching properly, making this Stunning located Restaurant the best dining out experience in Perth!
We had lunch and drinks here. The cocktails were amazing. The food was delicious. Well presented and innovative. Staff were attentive and delightful. Highly recommend.
Fantastic food, excellent service, amazing view. Great place!
handled the seating of Covid19 allowed 20 beautifully. As always food, service and view fantastic.

this place never disappoints!
From their lobster linguini to their prawn tortillas to their new specials .Despite what is going on right now I must say Odyssea is a pleasure supporting and their service is always phenomenal!
They have amazing food and it’s so great support our local
Enjoyed our mid week lunch here recently. Ordered the fish tacos (pretty good), baked spiced ricotta with fig (nice, but a little lacking on flavour and the actual fig part) & crispy baked potatoes (very tasty). Ambience of the restaurant is great with a funky internal decor and seating on the outside deck overlooking the ocean. Service was efficient and polite, menu was varied and interesting & pricing was reasonable.
I got a takeaway coffee and it was one of the best I’ve had. I’ll be back at some stage for breakfast. The view from the restaurant section is incredible. My coffee was made promptly too.
What a way to start the day! Beautifully prepared and presented breakfast in a stunning, peaceful location overlooking a pristine beach.
Had a lovely dinner here last night. Restaurant was busy and wait staff were very attentive. Went with the 5 course chef special which was very tasty and well presented. Beautiful selection of wines available by the glass. Would have rated 5 stars but the serving sizes were very much on the small side, otherwise it was a lovely experience!
Actual rating: 4.5/5
Phenomenal breakfast/brunch options. Thought the beef brisket benny would be too heavy but on the contrary - had wonderfully airy bread, perfectly poached eggs and tender beef - perfection. Harvest bowl was even better, a very thoughtful combination of miso, wakame, barley, kale, etc - a beautiful harmony of texture and flavour. Decent coffee as well.
Price is on the higher side but bear in mind you are paying for one of the best views in Perth, perched right upon the beachfront.
Delicious, creative fresh tasting food, great ambience and fabulous location. I have been to Odyssea for breakfast and lunch quite a few times and I have never been disappointed.
Came here for lunch with a friend who hadn't been before, the service was great and very fast and the food was delicious. The Valrhona milk chocolate dessert was particularly tasty. The atmosphere was light and airy and we had a great view of the seafront from our table.

My partner and I visited Odyssea for the first time a few weekends ago on the recommendation of a friend. We were not disappointed. Odessa has got the whole package, great food, fantastic service (a rare beast it seems these days) and great views. Oh, and it wasn't that noisy (which was surprising as there are lots of hard surfaces). We decided to share the Exmouth Cobia for entree which was a massive mistake....it was far too tasty to share. The lime gave the fish a really fresh finish and the coconut made it lovely and silky to eat and softened the chilli a bit. And it was really fresh fish. Delish!! For main I had the pasta with the Shark Bay crab and while the serve looked a little small on the plate it was just enough for me to feel comfortable and, importantly, still have room for dessert. My partner had the suffolk lamb which was ridiculously tender that chewing was not really required. For dessert I had the raspberry meringue with mango and passionfruit. The raspberry is in the meringue so it really cuts down on the sweetness. My partner had the black forrest which was kind deconstructed and very chocolatey and tasty. Both were recommendations from our waitress who was really attentive, she had a nice balance of friendly and chatty without being in your face. The drinks waiter was also really good at keeping a fresh supply of water to our table and keeping our drinks topped up. So different from the experience we had next door. We would definitely come back here again.
Wow this place has it all! Fabulous food, friendly and attentive staff and of course amazing beach views. Absolutely everything we had including the delicious cocktails and desserts were amazing! Definitely going back!
Visited this place on the last evening for dinner in perth and it’s located on the side of the best beach in perth.
Has the loveliest sunset view and wonderful ambiance. They also give blankets if you want to enjoy the cool breeze sitting outdoors.
We ordered food, hot chocolate and a few drinks—everything was very nice.
Ambiance- 5/5*
Food - 4/5*
Great service and delicious meals.
My family and I came here for breakfast over the weekend and Odyssea did not disappoint.
We had a great table near the window to take in a beautiful view of the water. And to top it off the meals were tasty, very good portion sizes and good value for the money. And the cinnamon hot chocolate was delicious! The pastries and cakes also looked incredible, but unfortunately I was too full to try one..
Will definitely return soon to check out lunch or dinner!
Came here for dinner on a Friday night just before the public holiday with my family. It was a busy night but the staff here are still so helpful and friendly. The view was amazing, we were able to watch the sun go down and it’s the perfect place to take your date. Anyway the food...it was amazing! We ordered two dozens of oysters to start off with, natural and fried both fresh and tasty. The chicken pate which had a lovely smooth texture and Came with the perfect amount of bread. Then for mains we ordered salmon, fried chicken, lamb, steak and the risotto. I have no complaints about any of these, it was that good! And the dessert, the creme brulee! YOU MUST try the creme brulee! It was just perfect, perfect consistency and a crunchy layer of sugar crisp. You have exceeded my expectations Odyssea.
Came to Odyssea with friends for Sunday brunch. I was the first to arrive and the waiter directed me to our table, put a bottle of water down on the table and walked away before I had even got to the table (I was a bit slow because I was trying to manoeuvre my pram through the restaurant), I could only assume that it was our table because he had put the bottle of water down on it. Anyhoo - the remainder of the service was prompt and friendly. The view was lovely over looking the ocean and it was a nice sunny day. I had the avocado, which was tasty but I felt it needed a sauce to bring it together as it was a bit “dry”.
I went to Odyssea for my anniversary lunch. I’ve heard many good things about this restaurant prior visiting and I must say they delivered. The food was amazing and big portion (may have over ordered! As usual! 😅) so it was worth the price and ontop of that you get a nice view. Perfect lunch and thanks to their staff, very lovely people 😀
Having sit down for food and a breakfast the first time here. Been here for quite a few afternoons for just a take-away coffee. Not disappointing, with heaps of customers enjoying a Sunday's breakkie and you could imagine how busy the restaurant (and how good they are). Of course the location is a perfect to have a good ocean view and the soft morning sea breeze is really a good compliment to the food. The service was nice too. We had a flat white with a birdie latte art, the waiter just said it supposed to be a swan but changed to a pelican somehow !! The food was yummy too. Well cooked with fresh ingredients - and you can easily tell just by the look. Will definitely be back if in town again.
Another great restaurant in Perth ticked off the list, finally! After spending many hours at the beach, sunbathing and swimming, it was with much excited anticipation that I booked in for lunch.
The service was friendly and efficient, the still water was refreshing and regularly topped up, as we found some shade outside.
It’s a really nicely fitted out place, with a ton of seats and a million dollar view.
Our meal choices included the fried chicken on rice, homemade pasta with rabbit stew, Korean pork belly tacos, and the home fried potatoes. Everything was super good, and we were somewhat reluctant to share our plates!
Would definitely heard back again.
The breakfasts are really good. I was hungry and forgot to take a picture. Both hubby and I had Eggs Benedict. The smoked ham was very tasty and the eggs done perfectly. The serving size was generous.
Will return for dinner.
Yea not bad, people go the view i guess
Food was great, potatos are delicious
Wait staff was abit awkward
Yet to try their breakfast! . . . .
As anyone from Perth can agree, there is no better view for breakfast, lunch or dinner than dining on the white beaches of the West Coast and overlooking the Indian Ocean. What a way to debut our first official Loud Table meal than visiting Odyssea Beach Café for a light lunch! When we first walked in we were immediately greeted, made to feel special by the staff and promptly seated in the Alfresco area overlooking the Beach.
Food.
Our first choice was the Korean Spiced Fried Chicken Tortillas. Which was sensational - Jamie and I both agreed we would die happy eating those flour wrapped spicy chicken goodness! Not to mention it’s beautiful presentation on the serving board is always a great way to start a meal...Click through to our website to see the full review
A lovely place to have lunch. Fantastic service, a nice view and decor, and super yum food and cocktails. I had the lamb, and my friends had the Korean chicken tacos and the eye fillet and it was all great. The dessert was good too (although not amazing). It isn’t cheap, but it is worth it.
Beautiful venue and stunning sunset. Salmon was very tasty. Unfortunately the service or lack of, lets this place. Drinks were forgotten and attendants were not friendly.
Love the coffees here. Take away or dine in always perfect. The view is stunning too. You can sit in the balcony with the windows closed on a blustery day so you can still enjoy the views and stay warm. One of the better views of our coast with excellent coffees.
Delicious food with amazing views. Reasonable pricetag for good quality is always a plus. Staff are very friendly, providing good (and fast) service. Have eaten for breakfast and dinner here, both top notch, although 65 degree eggs weird me out a little.
I have come here many times before for food and drinks to watch the sunset and have yet to have a bad experience. To start with all staff I have come into contact with are all extremely helpful and pleasant to talk to.
On this particular occasion myself and a friend ordered two share plates between us as well as a side of royal blue potatoes which are continuously delicious and perfectly seasoned every time I order them. We also had the beer battered snapper and the charred sweet potato. The fish was cooked to perfection and couldn’t fault it except to say the small amount of quite basic enough food was expensive for $24. The sweet potato was extremely interesting especially with the extra sweetness from the maple syrup but it really worked. Well worth doubling up on the carbs!
Extensive drinks list but bring back the “Lady&T” cocktails please they were divine!
A group of us went to Odyssea for dinner last week and we ordered entrees, mains and desserts. Every single dish was done to perfection. I had the house pasta and was licking my bowl to finish it. Thanks for an amazing night Odyssea!
UPDATED REVIEW - changing from 3* to 5*
Had lunch much with Hubby and Master Three and Master 6 weeks. Absolutely amazing. Food was perfect. Service even more perfect. Exactly what the ocean beach waterfront needs and great to see that after some time they are constituent with their service and quality!!
Stopped in with hubby and Master Three and had coffees and cake... very slow and inattentive service... but ambience and food was undeniably the best north the river on the ocean front. Best nd only Soufra I have ever had!!
Outstanding food, personable service and a warm, delightful ambience. I went to Odyssea's exclusive seafood dinner this week and as someone who isn't a big fan of seafood, I came out craving for more! The prawns, scallops, fish and dessert were great but the crab with polenta stole the show. The drinks were well matched and the service was friendly, detailed and seamless. Great evening and will be back.
Location is amazing, very nice terrace with beautiful view and bonus that they allow your pup to sit with you!
We had the market fish with turmeric broth, octopus and grilled zucchini all of which were amazing especially the fish and came out very quickly. Staff was very friendly and accomodating too. Yes it is a little on the pricey side but it defiantly reflects in the food and it was definitely worth it! Highly recommend!
After a couple of disappointing meals around town in the last few days, today was the day where I said in a quite no nonsense way to Mr Foodie that I wanted to eat lunch at somewhere that I KNOW is good! So off we set to Odyssea... Once again we were not disappointed!
We were seated in a lovely spot on the balcony overlooking the beach right next to the heater.. Which was fabulous as it was a little cold outside.
The service was attentive & as usual the food was amazing! I have been consistently impressed with the presentation & flavour of the dishes. Today I tried the wild rice crusted salmon with delicious Asian soy/Ginger sauce & sweet wasabi cream...it was so GOOD! Mr Foodie tried the king prawn pasta which went down a treat..he was very happy. The wine was Divine too!
Very satisfied customer!
Cannot fault the view or the breakfast. The menu regularly changes and they have innovative and seasonal offerings. Unfortunately lunch and dinner experiences never seem to be quiet as good as breakfast, with a few occasions of clunky service and average food. The breakfast and coffee are so good we will continue to go back, and will be regulars for aperol spritz on the balcony in Summer!
Another great bonus is that dogs are allowed on the side deck.
A beautiful Building and friendly staff. A very different kind of menu but that's a good thing. Good value and recommended, but don't come here if you want any type of egg other than slow poached
Wonderful restaurant. It's beautifully decorated (I can see it being a great wedding reception venue) - elegant and still a bit casual. The staff are very very nice, and not pushy (we took forever to decide on desserts). The view is very nice - it would be more worthwhile going in Summer so you can enjoy the view for longer.
The food was great! The Kangaroo fillet was very soft and tasty with all the bits and pieces on top of the fillet adding a great balance to the plate. The potato dumpling with slow cooked lamb was divine - potato dumpling was so soft and the lamb was melting in your mouth. The tagliatelle was a great combination of flavours. The desserts were very decent sizes (I was expecting tiny portions as they sounded so fancy) and very interesting!
The only thing I didn't like is that the Entrees aren't big enough for sharing (I mean you don't get more than a single mouthful).
Food, service & ambience were top-notch. 5 of us went for lunch and ordered different meals. All 5 mains were beautifully presented and delicious. 3 of us had desserts - 2 of us enjoyed our choice, but the 3rd didn't like his - but he still ate it all!!. Have no hesitation in recommending this venue.

This is my third visit as it's always a pleasant dining experience. I joined a girlfriend for Sunday lunch and we took our time sharing and grazing on different small plates, enjoying the gorgeous view and autumn sunshine on the balcony. The fish tortilla's never disappoint. My friend enjoyed the oysters and the choice of different sauces that you can choose from. We also shared the octopus which was nice but the seafood pieces were very small. The parmesan truffle sliced potato is so good! We polished them off no problem and the carbs helped fill us up seeing we were only ordering from the small plate part of the menu because to be honest nothing appealed to us that day from the larger plates. Our waitress was lovely but unfortunately we had an incident were she spilled my coffee over the table and over me, including my new dress. But the staff were wonderful in helping me to clean myself up and soon after a man (possibly the manager?) came to speak to me, offered his card and told me to contact him if my dress needed dry cleaning and they would cover the costs. I appreciated the gesture but would have also appreciated deducting the coffees off the bill, which they did not do. But accidents happen and I told him I hope the waitress is not in trouble. This place has constantly very good (not great) food and with the view you can't go wrong.
Came for breakfast for my dad's birthday, everyone enjoyed their meal and we really liked our position out on the balcony with a lovely view. There is no 'big breakfast' option, with extras starting at $4 it can get a bit expensive but nothing extortionate. You can't book on the weekend which makes coming with larger groups a bit tricky (we were a party of 6) but normally it's no more than a 20 minute wait. I had the feta/avocado dish which was very tasty.
I went with a group of friends and we were seated in the outside area. Service was really good and the food was quite tasty. I got the linguine and fish tacos. Not the best linguine I had but the fish tacos were absolutely delicious! I also got dessert which tasted just as good as looked! The prices were a little on the expensive side considering the food wasn't too fancy but I would still go back. The atmosphere was great!
Went for breakfast with a group of girlfriends. Beautiful venue in a gorgeous location. Staff were friendly. Menu was disappointing. Not everyone enjoys 65 degree cooked eggs and everything else had to ordered as a side and came in separate dishes. All a bit much when you just want good honest delicious food. Not sure what they are trying to achieve. Would return for coffee as the location is so lovely.
I have eaten at Odyssea Cafe at least 8-10 times now since it opened, and every time it is great. I love the decor, the service is fantastic and the food always good. Yes its a little more expensive than an every day kind of restaurant but I think it is worth it. You can drop in for coffee, breakfast, lunch dinner or an afternoon cheeky wine and nibble. Outside seating in summer is amazing with a view that rivals the best in the world.
Just Cofee And Almond croissant for breakfast today. Taste for both was really good. The Barrista has been very gentle and professional, went to their internal bakery to ask if any Almond croissant were present because they had finish on the cafe.
Great view on the ocean.
Ultimate location overlooking the ocean. Quality of food was amazing and service was second to none. You'll pay the price for it though but I think it's worth it.
Gorgeous location, and surprisingly shielded from the wind even though it was a bit blowy out on the beach. Staff here were really friendly and attentive. Being able to do split billing was a bonus!
Coffee was good, and each of our 4 breakfasts were delicious. The grains bowl was fantastic; generous sized, perfect slow poached egg, and the siracha yogurt was amazing.
Great spot for brunch, but I imagine dinner here with the sunset over the beach would be spectacular!
Went there for Sunday Lunch..Amazing service, location, atmosphere and food....all the staff went above and beyond...Thanks very much 😀will be back very soon.
Yes the location is amazing and the restaurant / decor is really nice too. Its pretty new so it should be. The service was fine - not pushy or pretentious. The food was acceptable, one of us had the kangaroo (unfortunately just couldn't cut thru the 'roasted' parsnips they were so hard), and I had the Fish of the day (golden snapper I think - somewhere under all the mint). Both nice (not wow, amazing or anything to rave about - but fine). However, its just so overpriced. A bowl of green olives is $7. Yes they were nice - but it was just a bowl of olives. No garnish, evidence of chilli or lemon. And $26 for the cheese board was ridiculous. Two tiny pieces of cheese, and more crackers / lavash than anything else. For the prices (and location / hype) I just expected more.
Great view, great service and dinner food! Absolutely enjoyed the fish tortillas, chips and eggplant salad. The mushroom linguini main was too salty but the grilled fish and the poached Tasmanian salmon was delish. Would love to try breakfast here one day
Came here a few months ago and was impressed. Great location with beautiful views of the ocean. Service was very friendly and attentive. Cocktails were delicious and food was fabulous!
The vibe is casual, just like the food.But the view of the Indian ocean is nothing short of spectacular. It might have been a long time coming for this stretch of paradise along City Beach where my sister and her family lives in Perth. Finally, gone is the dated old beach arena of yesteryear.

The service can be a little so so, but the food is fantastic and the view is to die for! Trust me and get the lamb hash for breakfast, it's not a traditional breakfast meal, but it's sooooo good!

Great spot for lunch and heaps of seating inside and outside. They do accommodate walk-ins but I made a quick last minute reservation on their website just to be sure for Saturday lunch. Just note that Odyssea does change their menu so some dishes we ordered may not be offered.
So my friend and I ordered:
-Potato gnocchi with Exmouth banana prawns, tomato, chilli, basil and cream $28. The gnocchi was made in house and it was absolutely delicious! Decent size and the sauce was full of flavour. My friend is vegetarian so the waiter said the prawns can be served as a side rather in the main dish which was really convenient and helpful.
- Woodside goats curd with spiced balsamic pickled bag vegetables, citrus and candies hazelnuts $19. This was a really yummy dish but wished they gave more of everything especially the goats curd with was smeared on the bottom of the plate.
- Charred brussel sprouts, chilli, lemon and smoked ricotta salata $12. This was an ok dish. I couldn't taste any of the chilli or lemon in the dish. The smoked ricotta salata was also pretty much nonexistent. I wouldn't order this dish again.
- Cheesecake brownie. We had a slice of the cheesecake brownie and it was dry unfortunately. Slightly disappointed to finish off our meal on that note.
Drinks:
- I ordered the Aperol Spritz $12. It's refreshing and for the price it was pretty decent. My friend order the lemonade which she enjoyed.
Overall I loved the atmosphere of Odyssea and will visit again but service started off good but ended up a hit and miss as the place started getting busy. We had to wait 15minutes just to get a waiter to get our bill.
Came for lunch on a Saturday. The service was absolutely amazing, friendly and very helpful staff! Food is delicious, especially the fish tacos! A huge plus they have an area for your fur babies too!
Visited for lunch on Tuesday and it was extremely busy. Ordered the scallops, sashimi salmon, octopus, gnocchi and side of snow pea salad. The scallops highly recommend with the gnocchi. The octopus was tender, but had a little smell to it. The sashimi was fresh, but I disliked the soy sauce jello with these seed like sprinkles. The concept is interesting, but not for me. The snow pea salad was very tasty. Overall I'd share because you get to try more than opting for one main.
We went to Odyssea for breakfast this morning, we have been there a number of times for breakfast , Lunch & Dinner, the staff are consistently friendly and the food is always excellent as is the fantastic view.
We had the Torbay asparagus, cured salmon, fennel, goats curd, soft boiled egg, sourdough toast & the Lamb shoulder hash, courgette, pea, coriander, fried egg harissa hollandaise, both were delicious.
We will be returning to Odyssea soon.
My 2nd visit to odyssey for breakfast on the weekend was just as fantastic as the first. Seated immediately at 10.30am, service fast & friendly food delicious and what a view! I had the salmon ceviche with asparagus and soft boiled egg, was amazing!
Early this year we had a group booking of 16 for a baby shower. We had 2 long table inside in the middle of the restaurant. The manager and staff could not have been more accommodating for 16 excited girls, some with babies in prams. It was such a nice morning which could have been the opposite had the staff been so great.
Absolutely Recommend Odyssea. Looking forward to trying the other menus!
Romantic sunset dinner for two delivered perfectly by Odyssea.
Casual dining with a hint of elegance meant my husband was completely comfortable in his linen jacket and I in my lovely dress.
Beside us others were more casual but it felt ok.
Out small table cleverly angled so we both could watch the sunset.
Menu is seasonal and mouthwatering and modern twist on some classics to keep things interesting.
Share plates had us leaning in and wiping the plate clean! The baked goats curd a triumph!!
Mains and my husband was delighted with his gnocchi although the promised "banana" prawns were on the small side and had a look of having been frozen.
My pork belly was delicious but way too much kimchi powder overpowered the pork & was way too dry on the palate.
Dessert was very sweet.
Great wine list and lovely dessert wines by the glass.
Can't beat the view.
This is a pro outfit We ha prawns and gnoki and squid Good cocktails Draught berrs and reasonable prices for wine Wxceptionally good service and atmosphere Recommendef
One of the prettiest dish was the grilled Australian sea scallops that was served in half shell. On the shell there was truffle cauliflower puree as well as crisp pancetta, a killer combo for this dish!It was so good that we were seated with some people who didn't mind to share their food. I didn't order the roasted Tasmanian salmon but I was able to try it! The mint, hummus, coriander and the cooked through salmon flesh was really pleasant. The herbs really supported the freshness of the salmon especially with some drizzled lime juice. Jeremy ordered the gluten free Torbay Asparagus which he really loved. He vowed to eat more asparagus after he finished the whole dish. His meal was quite light and just enough if you're looking for a light dinner option. The thinly sliced Prosciutto di Parma went well with the torbay asparagus.
Lunch here was a fairly good experience, great location, food very good. Service not so great though they forgot about our dessert, we waited for nearly an hour but finally gave up and left. We found it quite noisy, with the tables too close together, making conversation difficult. We'll give it another go though and see if the negatives are reversed.

Under the warm sunshine, cosy sea breeze, splashing sea waves, you know you have chosen the right place to start off your day. Odyssea brings another new dining experience along the stunning coastline. Pushed the glass door and welcomed by the gentle waiter, leading you to your table for two. Sitting on the bench and being amazed by that sophisticated beachside fare. At that moment, my eyes were my camera, capturing this uninterrupted coastline with no filters. Apparently, this place was taking my breath away. Then, the beautiful waitress brought me back to the reality and asked us for drinks. We started reading the menu and quickly ordered two dishes to stop our belly from making any weird noises.
We had great food and service. Could not fault the experience at all. The restaurant is nicely ambient. I had the gnocchi which was delicious and the Tonka Bean Parfait Ice cream sandwich, which came with an array of fruits and chocolate sauce, absolutely blew my mind.
Well done guys
Spring is my favourite season of the year. Sunny days, with slightly shivery winds. New buds of flowers emerging, and baby animals a plenty in the wild. Best of all, it brings with it an exciting season for fresh produce – with some of my favourite fruit and veggies at their prime.
EDIT:
We have back several times since our first visit sbd found the same great standard in food, presentstion and service.
-----------------------------
We nearly DIED!! The cheesecake dessert is to DIE for. We are not your typical dessert eaters but we ordered a second serve which is most unusual.
We ordered 4 entree dishes and a stesk.
The roasted broccoli with garlic was great and so was the squid. Steak was cooked to order. Service was accommodating given we were walk ins and table service was attentive.
With so many eateries dotting that area strong competition is going to be inevitable.
Our experience was great!
However, the Zomato online menu should be updated!
Excellent cake in a stunning seaside location! Our custard filled bundt was a delight, coffee was strong and smooth, the entree was tasty well cooked prawns, and our waitress was amazingly attentive and polite! Can't wait to try more food here
Came here mostly for breakfast and the beautiful view. Its really nice restaurant and good ambient as well. Its really busy especially during the weekend but the staff is really friendly and took a good care. One of my favorite weekend spot in Perth
I enjoyed an early Monday public holiday brekkie here. Beautiful venue with excellent views. My waiter took me to the big communal table facing the beach and took my coffee order. I ordered the Tasmanian salmon, sweet potato hash, corn puree, and green chilli yoghurt, and the Bloody Caesar an interesting mix of Belvedere vodka, clamato juice, lemon, worcestershire, tabasco, maple syrup, and bacon. Coffee arrived fairly quickly and was good. The brekkie was not far behind and was nicely presented. Flavours were spot on, but my salmon was a little dry and was unseasoned. But the puree and the yoghurt were perfect and made up for this. My brekkie cocktail arrived and the flavours were amazing; lively party in your mouth good. A great way to kick start the day, and loved the addition of bacon and maple. Will have to come back for lunch or dinner sometime soon.
It’s been ages since we’ve been out for dinner in Perth and were excited to be heading out with some close friends. They had mentioned Odyssea had recently opened their doors, so thought it was fitting to head out to check out what they had to offer. ATMOSPHERE & SERVICE. Odyssea offers breathtaking views of the ocean (although we didn’t get to see too much after the sun went down) as well as the stunning WA coastline. The restaurant is part of a new impressive development taking place on City Beach.
creative, well priced, delicious breakfast.
love this place more and more. makes me happy to find a place by the beach that has friendly, real people for service (also older, bolder people, yay!) that serves inspiring, healthy food that is yummy and has reasonable prices.
Visited this place yesterday for lunch. Absolutely delicious food here. We ordered the scallops, salmon, gnocci, and brussel sprouts. Just delicious. Service is great here too. I find this place on the more expensive side, but the quality of food makes up for it. Definitely coming back. Make a booking because it is busy!
We dined here for dinner on a Saturday night, and while we enjoyed the meal, we were not overly impressed. The food was a little bit and miss. The gnocchi and tacos were divine, but the salmon, octopus and squid salad left a bit to be desired. Nonetheless, the service was excellent and the vibe great. The coffee is also very good.
Popped in on Saturday night for a glass of wine and an entree before heading home and we weren't disappointed. Wine was delicious, view of course is amazing and we shared a basket of chips with ranch sauce which were delicious. Service was quick and we were so impressed we walked the dogs down there (yes it is dog friendly which is a big bonus) on Sunday morning hoping to have breakfast. We were a little late for breakfast service but had one of the best croissants I have had in Australia along with an amazing coffee. I think we have just found our new favourite place for Sunday mornings. Can't wait for summer but I think the place is going to be even more busy than it is now. Will just have to get up early on Sunday morning.
Second time here, but first time for breakfast.
We had the Prosciutto de Parma, radicchio jam, goat’s curd, toasted sourdough, 65oC poached egg and my husband got the baked eggs, Ras el hanout spiced beef, smoked eggplant, tahini. I don't know which dish I liked better. They were both fantastic.
Whatever they're doing in the kitchen I hope they keep doing the same thing. Including my previous visit, I've ordered menu items out of my comfort zone and they have always been great.
You cannot walk away either without getting something from their display cabinet.
For the quality of the food and the views you get, the prices are pretty good value. It gets busy though, and as the weather gets better I don't think the crowds will die down anytime soon.
Fantastic. Just had a sensational breakfast with friends. All the meals were high quality and presented well and the taste was amazing. Considering how busy they were, the service was great and food was out very promptly. View of the ocean is incredible. Only negative was having to wait in line for a table but it was worth the wait! Highly recommend.
After the opening of Odyssea earlier in the year and the hype that surrounded it, it was firmly on my list, however due to its popularity and crazy busy weekends it seemed a mid week dinner was the way to go and that time had come. Odyssea is complete beachfront on City Beach and part of an impressive new development that will include a couple more establishments as the year goes on. I’ve often felt Perth has suffered from a shortage of good beachfront restaurants, which seems like such a shame considering our incredible coastline and breathtaking sunsets. So whenever a new one opens up and promises food that matches the view, I’m in. Odyssea had a couple of negative reviews early in the piece but as this is fairly normal whilst a new venue finds its feet it certainly did not deter me and I can tell you now, after my visit, I can’t wait to go back.
Gorgeous view of the ocean, if you don't look at the ground level it feels like you're sitting on a cruise ship with the surf life saving club lookout. Food was really delicious, my swordfish was cooked to perfection. Fish tacos were delicious too! Service was great, dessert was interesting (I probably chose something weird to begin with) but it was a really nice meal overall.
Amazing outlook, delicious food, friendly and helpful wait staff.
We found the food to be good sized potions and well priced.
Lunch for 3 with wine, coffees and 2 shared deserts came to $148.
Will definitely be back again.
Have now been for breakfast and dinner and have had great service and food both times. Love the atmosphere and the feel of the place. There was a queue when I got there 10 mins before the breakfast menu stopped but staff managed to seat everyone and get orders in before the cut off. Pretty smooth and organised service; impressive. Food and coffee was good too; you must try the crumpet - yum!
Arrived on a stormy Sunday without a booking. It was full but they gave us a corner table. Service was really good despite how hectic it was. Food surpassed our expectations. Will be back!

Booked here with my sister for Birthday lunch. It was quite busy as usual. We had a table inside as it was too windy outside seating. We were seated at our table the waitress was lovely omg I forgot her name. Anyway we ordered some bread with olive oil. And for mains my sister ordered the fish and I ordered the kangaroo. Our meals came out quite quick and when we tucked into our food my sister found a eyelash lol. As I continued to eat my food I found a very fine brown hair lol. The awesome waitress said that it wasn't her day as everything that could go wrong went wrong! It was fine we reassured her we loved our meals so much anyway. The kangaroo dish was beautiful but for the price I expected a couple more pieces of kangaroo. One thing we didn't like was the young manager he kept giving us dirty looks,not sure why but we thought he was rude.They offered us a free dessert which was the deconstructed Pavlova it was nice. I would definitely come back again! I look forward to trying more dishes 😍
Good food, great location, good service. Limited menu but interesting dishes catering to most tastes. Squid salad excellent, roast pear dessert interesting - light flavour, nice finish to meal. Only gripe was the not too subtle hint to leave at 10:30 pm on a Saturday night - still looking for a nice relaxed place that is happy to serve after-dinner drinks / coffees without rushing us out
Fantastic place, beautiful views with excellent food and superb wine list. Reasonably priced for the quality of food and excellent service.
Tried the mushrooms - this was one of the best and more innovative dishes Ive tried in Perth of late.
Perfect location, went for dinner and the food is quite good, little bit pricey though. Our waitstaff were lovely as well. Would like to come back for brekky as the menu looks nice!
Thank you for breakfast! The food was delicious as well as the Austrian Riesling. Your service was very friendly :)
I had the prosciutto de Parma, goats curd, radicchio jam
Came here for brunch on the weekend, bit of a line but ended up getting a seat outdoors fairly quickly. It was quite cold and could have done with some outdoor heaters on the alfresco area but they had blankets which helped a bit! The service felt a little cold and rushed, asking if we wanted coffees first or to wait for our guests, then as we were thinking about it (briefly!), she said 'there's a wait on coffees so...', felt the same when ordering food. She was just letting us know there would be a wait but I felt it could have been done a bit more politely and with a smile.The coffee was good but went cold too quickly outdoors! The highlight was the food! The polenta and mushroom dish with the perfectly cooked oozy egg was delicious, the blue cheese whip was really subtle and not offensive. The baked eggs were satisfying. A really lovely spot with a great view. It's similar to Bib and Tucker but at a more reasonable price.
Pricey but nice, attentive staff, had the calamari salad & a brilliant desert each.
Well worth a visit, a table outside if it's warm.
Very busy on the weekend, go for a late lunch.

Sundays are very busy here (the lunchtime line was out the front door), but luckily we got an outside table with a nice view (as we had reserved a table, though still had to wait in the line for several minutes). There always seems to be a lot of staff around, though it can be difficult to get one's attention if you want something. I wasn't sure what the menu food would be like, having only previously tried the baked goods. I was pleasantly surprised. The polenta was tasty, and quite filling, which I wasn't expecting from a starters menu of a restaurant like this. The prawns in milk buns were nice, though nothing great, but of average value for $18.
We had ordered chips with dip, but they never arrived, and we weren't fussed going without, and luckily they didn't show up on the bill.
The pastry cabinet didn't have much of a selection, but the souffra looked interesting, and one of the people at our table remarked that it tasted "like a custard tart with way more pastry". We also ordered the doughnut off the dessert menu, and apart from the orange aspect being too bitter, that was very nice, especially the ganache.
There was an iced coffee that seemed to have been forgotten about, but just over five minutes after querying with a waiter we received it. The affogato comes with a lot of ice cream, in the kind of etched glass that every middle-aged couple in the 90's had, which I liked.
Overall, it is good food at not too expensive prices.
I am glad it didn't rain, as there didn't seem to be a lot of protection for most of the outside tables were that to happen.
I visited Odyssea for the first time on Saturday night for dinner with a friend. It was a last minute booking but we were able to get in at 6.30 if we didn't mind sitting on the deck (and with big heaters warming us we didn't). The food was good, if pricey: the vegetarian gnocchi was delicious and my friend liked her kangaroo a lot. A green salad and olives on the side were good. The service was, frankly, all over the place: the olives seemed to go walkabout for awhile, a drink order got confused and when we finished our mains our plates were cleared etc without anyone offering us a dessert menu. Similarly when our cup of tea/champagne for dessert were cleared the waiter didn't ask if we wanted to bill or anything else - just cleared the table and left. It wasn't hostile service but it was very weird. The head (I think) waiter told us later he had a migraine so perhaps that was it. I'd still go back.
Very busy beach front cafe. We squeezed in on a Sunday for brekky. Food was good a bit pricey but good quality, but the view is pretty amazing. It takes a while to get a table normally and it can be quite noisy but definitely worth a visit
Walk in table for 5 - arrived at 11:30 on Sunday and managed to get a seat on the balcony with heaters and blankets .. Told that the kitchen didn't open until 12 so we ordered drinks while we waited. Service was friendly and with a smile and we didn't wait too longer for our meals. Ordered the fish tacos, lamb sirloin, beef, squid and pork belly .. A side of fries with blue cheese & bacon sauce .. Really good .. Totally happy with our choices and the setting! We'll be back!
Excellent! I absolutely loved this place. The layout and atmosphere is warm, the staff are attentive and friendly and the breakfast was really good. I had the bircher muesli which was delicious, looking forward to go back!

Popped in for a late lunch and it was very busy but didn't have to wait to long. Got a fantastic table outside overlooking the ocean it was beautiful and had gas heaters between each table and blankets available if you get cold. Venue was beautiful and the service was friendly.
We decided to get a few share dishes - Fish Tacos, Grilled Octopus and Potatoes, Bone Marrow and Prawn & Pancetta Milk Buns. We were happy with most of our selections the only dish we didn't enjoy was the Prawn one, the ratio of prawn to bread was out of proportion there just wasn't enough filling and the bread wasn't amazing. The Fish Tacos tasted amazing the combination of the crunchy battered fish, aioli and preserved lemon rind with the watercress was amazing. The Octopus was beautiful and tender and went well with the potatoes it was really tasty. The Bone Marrow was beautiful especially the salad that it's served with the combination of it all together with the toasted bread was fantastic.
Beautiful place to enjoy some tasty food with a few glasses of wine but be aware the serving sizes are rather small.
Did not disappoint - worth the wait. I've heard so much about this place from friends and was super excited to try it! I was a little worried that it wouldn't live up to the hype - by it ticked all the boxes. Went in for brekky with a group of 4 and made sure we went in early to avoid the queue!
They don't take bookings for breakfast so much sure you go in a bit earlier to secure a table - recommend before 9am.
The menu was interesting and for someone who is not a big fan of fish - I ordered the Salmon. It was amazing - with crispy kale and toasted chia seed. The star was that lovely sauce!!! I was smiling from ear to ear. Definitely a great chef in the kitchen!
Service was lovely as well. They were packed out the door and still the staff managed to be attentive and friendly. Also nice atmosphere loved being by the beach.
I can't wait to come back and bring a couple of friends maybe even try lunch or dinner.
Price: Approx $20-30 including a Soy Chai Latte
Went to Odyssea for breakfast this morning. Was stunned by beautiful beach view from the restaurant. A lovely lady greeted at the front and she escorted us to one of tables outside. Staffs were all friendly and efficient. I picked the Filo Wild Herb Pie with Labne, Sumac and Fried Egg. It's a very tasty dish, loved the combination of all. My friend had Tasmanian Salmon with Crunchy Potato and Kale Hash, Bernaise, Toasted Quinoa and Sourdough. She enjoyed it. Unfortunately coffee wasn't their strongest point. My friend's latte tasted a bit weird so they made a new one for her, very kind of them. She said it's better, but still we've had better coffees somewhere else. We had Souffra for dessert, it's good but I would prefer it cold. I would love to go back again soon.
View is possibly best in Perth ... I like this place as found and service is pretty good ... But only wish they had made the venue bit more casual ... It's beachside restaurant and that means casual is the only way to go...
Food tasted delicious! Had the spicy prawn tagliatelle which had just the right balance of flavour! We called for reservation on the night and were told that the next available seating inside would be in 2 hrs time, so we opted for outdoor seating. When we got there, we were glad we went for outdoor seating, because in combination with the heaters, blankets and sound of the ocean, the setting was just perfect. Overall it was a very nice dining experience, although we would have preferred a bit more variety on the dessert menu.
Since moving near the beach, A and I have been spending so much more time there. We’ve been looking forward to the new development at City Beach being completed and were excited to try the first venue to open – Odyssea Beach Café. The weather on the weekday morning we visited was near perfect, so we decided to dine in the alfresco area to capitalise on Odyssea’s stunning location.
Beautiful beach front views. Got a table here for afternoon coffee and cake in 5 minutes despite the long lines. Very busy atmosphere, good service. The cakes were delicious. Would like to return to sample the dinner menu soon.
I had the squid main which was delicious, really flavoursome, generous portion, well cooked and well presented. Hubby had the jerk chicken. It tasted really good, fresh ingredients etc, there just wasn't enough there, it needed some rice or something to go with it and bulk it out. It was just as well my portion was big enough to share or hubby would have left still hungry! Unsurprisingly for this location the drinks were expensive. Lovely views on the terrace.
Reserved a table for Sunday lunch with the dog and was accommodated at a table outside. Food (salmon and pork belly) and view perfect and service good.
As a local who swims at this beach a couple of times a week I have found this development scary in its enormity and frightened of the impact on our local community and the amenity of City Beach. Now I have been, seen and tasted. Perth now has a place to rival Sydney in view, in modern courageous cuisine and in local authenticity. My crumpet was outstanding, the service was excellent and to top it off I saw Ian Thorpe and his boyfriend. That does not happen everyday . Odyssea is a welcome addition to Perth's dining scene.
This is a fantastic restaurant with amazing food, beautiful views and very good wait staff. My friend and I hadn't booked and they were very busy but still able to find us a table. The water and menus were out fast and drinks were ordered and brought out swiftly. I couldn't fault the food and will certainly be returning there in the near future.
Fabulous, good service - well trained, intelligent staff, great food - delicious tasting, came quickly, decent portions. Beautiful views of the ocean. Will definitely come back.
I love the atmosphere here and it is a great addition to the area, food was fresh and very tasty, service could vastly improve though. It was busy when we went and luckily we had all afternoon otherwise it would have been frustrating, one of of drinks was forgotten and we had to ask for it twice. In saying that I am sure it is just teething problems and I am keen to go back.
Securing a table at the uber-popular Odyssea is difficult. I had to forget dining on a weekend, which were fully booked for two weeks. Plan B, an early weeknight dinner, was the easiest option. Odyssea is one of Perth’s rare absolute beachfront restaurants. We are welcomed into the airy coastal restaurant and taken out to a table on the expansive decked veranda, overlooking the park and ocean. Our waiter is pleasant – though a little green. On his second visit to our table he offers us water. After a quite a wait, I resort to ushering a waitress over to bring us a carafe of tap water.
Had dinner to celebrate a special family occasion, thirteen of us. We loved the long bench table with high stools. The service was brilliant ranging from helping two children with their menu to advising on the wine list.
The food was superb, especially the Rob Broadfield recommended pork belly. The specially made cake was lovely and so well priced.
Tuesday night the place was packed with a great buzz. Thank you Oddysea.
Ps. When paying the bill, I added a sizeable tip to which the waitress asked are you sure about that? Wonderful.

We had a large group booking for lunch on Saturday the food, service and cost was brilliant. Thank you to the wonderful staff who waited on our tables so efficiently, the beautiful food and cakes supplied by the chefs and Ella for her great organising skills. You all made my Fathers birthday very enjoyable.
Our experience at Odyssea today was so incredibly enjoyable that I am writing a review (I don't normally do this!). It was extremely busy and we didn't have a booking but the staff made room for us at a beautiful spot overlooking the ocean. Service was incredibly attentive and we were not left waiting or wanting! Food was exceptionally well prepared and came out super fast, especially considering how busy it was. The Northwest squid was so tender and juicy and like no squid I have ever tasted. Will be back next week for dinner! Totally made my day.
Gorgeous lunch venue. City Beach so needed this restaurant.
We were a large group and service was good. Really enjoyed the squid salad! Will be back!
Brilliant setting and comfy seating make Odyssea a fine option for a waterfront brekky. The coffee was ok but not brilliant while the eggs and toast were solidly good. Service was excellent.
A great place for lunch with a great view of Perths coastline. Service was average and something management need to address. Will go back again
This place is amazing. Came here with a few friends for breakfast. As a big coffee drinker the coffee is divine and the breakfast was so perfect. Eggs poached perfectly and bacon cooked nicely. Very fresh. The food came out really fast and the place was packed full with no tables to spare. I recommend this to everyone, beautiful views, great service and food.
Finally! Somewhere for breakfast that takes advantage of our phenomenal beaches, but doesn't let the food and service slide because they 'can'.
Easter Saturday breakfast, 9am. Place was heaving to the ceiling, so there was about a 5-10min wait for a table. Scored one on the balcony, what a stunning view!
Food was slightly inventive, but delicious. No traditional "big breakfast" here. I had avocado, haloumi and chimmi churri on toast, which I really enjoyed.
Service was great; friendly, attentive but not overbearing.

Odyssea Beach Café is one of the new restaurants in the revamped City Beach beachside area. It opened in January this year and has been super popular with people often having to book over a week in advance and queuing for a while if you walk in without a reservation.
Royal Seal of Approval. Much the same as Homer's sequel to the Iliad, Odyssea is a true work of art. The setting and fit out is second to none. Odyssea utilises the best of the west infused with the magic of the Mediterranean. The Prince has visited on two occasions and on both occasions was equally impressed. As imposing as the formal dining experience is, Odyssea offers a unique casual coffee setting on the outdoor deck and is open until late. They have clearly found the coastal balance that Perth folk yearn and crave. Well done to the team at Odyssea.
Went there for a lazy Saturday afternoon lunch. Awesome food, great service, lots of fun and lots to be happy about with this place. Good to finally see some quality places making the most of our fantastic coastline. Oh forgot, great wine list and some good advice given on what to match it with from Von. Also to Ashleigh and the owners thanks for a great afternoon. "I'll be back!"
Thursday 17th March. Fabulous experience. Maitre De warm welcoming, staff attentive, friendly and efficient. Thank you we will definately return with our friends for more.
The long black and espresso, are an outstanding cup of coffee. Odyssea use local coffee beans, Our 2nd visit for coffee and happy to say it’s consistent with the last.
The gluten free friand is topped with fig and berry, as well as flaked almonds. It’s a delectable balance of oven cooked fruit and springy soft cake. The Frangipane tart is a top heavy slice of caramelised peach. Perfect with the sugarless coffees.

I have been following the development of this brand new beach side cafe on Instagram for a while now; waiting with bated breath for it’s opening. How could I not be excited about a cafe being opened by the previous owners of the Angove Street favourite – Metrio & Co!. City Beach has been transformed by the opening of Odyssea. A restaurant as beautiful as the beach, with plenty of seating inside and even more outside. They know people want to see that view!
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
Breaky here was superb. I figured there would be stunning views, but they seem to have ticked all the other boxes as well.
Delightful decor, beautifully coordinated and unpretentious. We were seated in the outside area, well protected, great music, bordering on a bit loud, but it was ok.
The food was delightful standout, interesting ideas, immaculate presentation and delivered on taste !
The service was attentive but unobtrusive, though I think the 'mature and refined' couple close by may have cringed every time the waitress said, 'so, how's everything going GUYS', as did we a bit.
We even followed our breaky with a bit of decadence, having a chocolate brioche from the baked selections on offer, all of which would be a standout in any city. Perth really has come of age.
Thankyou 'Odesea'. We will be back !
December 2016
Dinner a week ago. Still a lovely place, very busy in December at sunset. The three scallops clearly cooked on the same hot plate as the meats etc. Goats gurd with a bit of mesculine was disappointing, Gnocchi was ok. Gin and tonic watery, but overall a high price for tiny portions of average food, but then you are paying for the view. I'll go back again for breaky though !
Can not fault the food here. We didn't have a booking and had to wait approximately 40 minutes for a table, so not too bad as they were fully booked. We chose to share the small plates and could not fault one dish. So fresh, and loved the blue cheese and bacon chips! We would definitely be back.
Tuesday 16th February Lunch.
Meeting friends at city beach and decided to try here instead of Clancys for a change.
Place was busy!! Even for Tuesday afternoon but we were offered outside seating in the kinda bar around the tree which we were fine with. Ordered 3 dishes to share, fig with blue cheese, kingfish ceviche and the fish tacos and s non alcoholic cocktail. Everything was beautiful would like to go back and try more dishes. Our waitress was very helpful and service seemed pretty good as they were so busy. This is kind of what I would like Shorehouse service to be like. I wouldn't say it's competition for Clancys they are 2 very different venues which is nice to go to city beach and have a choice
What a great venue. Probably one of the first dining experiences that does justice to location whilst providing delicious tasty whole good. I really enjoyed the squid salad with a prosecco! My friends also enjoyed the prawn pasta, the Beetroot salad was also lovely, but not quite enough for a vegetarian main. Fabulous service. Stunning decor. Love love love! I will be back!
This restaurant is superb! Fantastic service, I couldn't fault it in the slightest. The waiters were engaging, kind, attentive and actually looked happy to be there. The decor was really well designed and suited the location perfectly. The food came out in a timely manner and was absolutely delicious. My fish of the day was probably the best fish I've had. Fresh, delicious, and such amazing flavour combos. The food here isn't boring, it's new and inventive and just amazing. The chef should be applauded. The serving sizes are fantastic, and you don't pay an arm and a leg for what you get. All round great place to eat in Perth and well worth the drive if you don't live close by. Will definitely be telling all my friends about it.
Had a nice lunch here with MatthewThornley. The whole layout, atmosphere and vibe is so relaxing and chilled. We had the bruschetta, pork belly and a side of chips with two pints of the James Squire's Summer Swindler. The bruschetta was fresh and the toasted quinoa was a nice touch, but overall it was missing a bit of flavour. The pork belly was delicious! Juicy, spicy and the plum complimented it well. Would definitely recommend it. Both meals were also presented so appetisingly... I'd love to see the kilograms of coriander they've got in their kitchen because it was quite prevalent in most of the meals on the menu (but I love coriander so no harm done!) And the chips were.. chips. We got what we wanted, and the blue cheese & bacon dip was something different.
Service was excellent as well, as they have soo many staff! I would recommend this place for its refreshing atmosphere and might return again to try other items on the menu.

Odyssea makes the most of the beautiful City Beach vista with its large and long deck and spacious interior. It is a large dining space that fits lots of people, which also means a high level of general chatter noise.
We went for breakfast, which you can't book for. It was a 20 minute wait but the front door staff kept coming back to us to say she hadn't forgotten us as we waited out the front in the sun. We were seated on the deck and the staff were accommodating, with a smile, for my two pregnant friends when we said the low table and chairs wouldn't suit.
Most of our table ordered the avocado and halluomi which had lots of green and they said delicious. Another ordered the mushroom dish, which was fancy but without bread so she left a little hungry. I ordered the Bircher which was soft, full of flavour and an okay size, not tiny but not exactly filling either. Coffees were all decent.
I'd love to come for lunch/dinner which is when I think it'll really shine. For breakfast, I'd probably recommend after you've been to the beach rather than make it as your destination.
There are so many staff here, the service flows really quickly and efficiently: bam, bam, bam.
We didn't have to wait for anything. The restaurant is comfortable, slick and modern with a beautiful view.
Their menu is a little limited only 8 mains to choose from. Coriander and chilli seemed to be their favourite ingredients as they crept up everywhere on the lunch menu. Nothing was particularly spicy though. We tried the jerk chicken, squid, kimchi pork belly and chips. Both the chicken and the pork belly were melt in the mouth soft with a good balance of flavour. Though the salad that accompanied the chicken did have a lot of coriander stalks. The squid salad was nice and light and the squid was not rubbery. The chips were crunchy, salty and accompanied by a moreish blue cheese and bacon dip. In fact everything was as nice as you'd expect from such a beautiful restaurant in a beautiful location however the portion sizes are on the lighter side.
Ok. Great view, we had beautiful weather so it was a great day for us. The service was good even though they were pretty busy; plenty of friendly staff.
Had the Korean Pork, NWS Squid and Mt Barker Chicken. Everything has chilli - everything - some of us can't eat it. The food was well presented and tasted good (despite the sting of the chilli) but the accompanying salads were well strange.
Coffee is lukewarm but flavoursome.
Not somewhere that I will return in a rush but don't get me wrong it is nice.
I decided on the honeycomb, yoghurt and goat’s cheese semifreddo with strawberries, fresh honeycomb and candied pistachios ($18.00). While on most occasions I tend to gravitate more towards savoury over sweet, I thought this sounded really interesting and different to what other brunch spots have on their menus.
I think what impressed me most about this was the fact that it was like a celebration of summer on the plate – and perfectly in harmony. The goat’s cheese was strong, but not overly dominating – just counter balanced against the saccharine strawberries and nuts. It was a really morish dish, one that kept me coming back for spoonful after spoonful – and when I was finished I felt really sated but not bloated. Delicious! I think I might have won in the dish off that day because I left feeling well and truly impressed by my plate. I also loved the fresh honeycomb which is not something I’ve eaten on many occasions, and it was so satisfyingly sticky!
A super location & this stunning beach venue is ideal for lunch on a warm day
Maitre de was lovely & efficient, maybe best to book if you want inside
Floor Managers need to better train & direct the friendly young staff
Wine come out quickly but cork in the bottle proved problematic & delivered white with no ice in bucket "nice drop of french chardy once opened"
No food service follow up after being seated
No side plates for sharing or cutlery before meal arrived
Food delivered that was for another table
None of these are unfixable
Small casual menu suits the beach & good wine list by glass
Food is well priced & cheerfully plated, unfortunatley cooking skills & flavours take a back seat, however the view is complimentry..
Had a great meal here recently, and I would advise heading around the sunset hours and find a seat on the deck. We were pleasantly surprised by the interesting menu and food came out within a few minutes of us placing the order. The food was fresh, and packed with lots of fresh greens (Kim chi pork belly and north west squid). Service was great, aside from when we were trying to find someone to pay the bill- but who really cares when you can enjoy the view whilst you're waiting.
We had a great night - although, after reading some of the earlier reviews, we were a bit wary.
The views and position - well, they speak for themselves.
The food and service, however is what will speak volumes ...and it was fantastic!!
We were a table of 6 and between us ordered a substantial number of the delicious choices on the menu. Everything was interesting and SO delicious!!
Wait staff were attentive and friendly - and able to speak well to the menu.
An absolute joy to have such a quality restaurant on our northern beaches!
Love it a new restaurant very friendly staff, the deck is lovely, the food was great and the view was stunning we will be back soon I love restaurant on the ocean front
Stopped by for a brief coffee over the weekend. Our long blacks were great and we'll definitely be back to try breakfast in the near future. It's a beautiful laid out restaurant with sensational views of city beach. A little chaotic in the entry area and expect a queue over the weekend if you don't have a booking. In other words, book to avoid disappointment.
New venue excellent staff fast efficient and pleasant service. Great pleasure to be served with a smile rather than a grunt. Breakfast was very tasty and well presented Booked 2 weeks ahead for dinner which speaks for itself!!
Had a wonderful breakfast at Odyssea last weekend. Lucky we had booked before they decided that they would no longer take breakfast bookings, as the queue was out the door! View and ambience to die for. Service was cheerful and efficient. I had the Avocado with Baked Haloumi which was absolutely delicious. Others all enjoyed their meals too. Waitress was always available for extra coffee orders and despite the crowds we were not made to feel rushed at all. I hope they reconsider not taking breakfast bookings, especially for larger groups. I would not go there (or anywhere else for that matter) if I had to queue.
I actually don't know what these people who are saying "more options needed" actually want? I think the menu is fresh and new and moves away from the boring old bacon and eggs. If you want that, stay the f home or go to your shitty local. We need more fresh and imaginative places in Perth to lift the foodie culture. All of the people below are keeping average restaurants in business. My lunch calamari salad was not the best thing I've ever eaten, that is to say I did not enjoy it, but the breakfast was sublime, the coffee was perfect and the service was fine!
Good coffee with prompt friendly service. I love the setting and the permanent outdoor seating.. Nice to have alternatives at this beautiful location.
Everything was fantastic about our breakfast dining experience
The weather the vie and location perfect
The restaurant itself is modern but comfortable and takes advantage of the view of the ocean
The menu is not too extensive and just a little bit different from the standard breakfast menu - and delicious - and great value with very reasonable prices compared
Service is attentive and friendly but not in your face - loads of staff so they aren't overworked and available
Coffee great
Juice great
Food delicious - we all 8 of us agreed
Cannot wait until we return
We went for brekkie on a Monday thinking it would be quiet. We were wrong - it was very busy. There were no tables on the balcony so we were seated in the alfresco area which was very relaxed. Love the decor and atmosphere and the staff were very friendly and efficient.
We ordered the bananas wrapped in pancetta with French toast which was yum! My hubbie had the mushroom with pearl barley and goats cheese which was also nice. The fresh juices were good. The only suggestion would be some more "standard" menu items such as pancakes, or just plain bacon and eggs (you can order eggs and toast but anything else is an extra). Will be returning to try the pork belly for dinner
Loved it. Brekky today with friends. Food great. Coffee great. Service friendly. Venue great. Prices reasonable. What's not to like.
Going by how hard it is to get a booking here I think Perth has been crying out for a place like this on the beach. Delicious food, great location and good service. We couldn't get a dinner booking but were able to get a table as a 'walk-in'. This meant we sat outside which was really nice as it wasn't too windy.
We shared 3 of the starter/share plates between 2 and all were full of flavour, well presented and brought out promptly. We were thinking we would try more food but we were very satisfied but very keen to go back and try more.
Great food and service! I can't believe the low rating of this place! We took a drive to eat somewhere on the beach as the weather was lovely, discovered this place that has been open only 3 weeks. It was packed when we arrived and had a line out the door as we were leaving, at nearly 3pm! We were seated by a friendly front of house. We then ordered the fish and steak, both were lovely and came out quickly after we ordered, even though they were extremely busy. Impressive ocean views and a funky venue layout, great food, awesome wine list. Would definitely recommend!
Finally made it back here and so glad we did. Service has improved 100 fold and the food was great. So many interesting items, all big portions and beautifully presented. Loving the new menu. Will definitely be back!

Disappointed tonight. Food was below the standard that it usually is. Kangaroo we’ve had at least 3 times each and tonight it was barely warm, overdone, under seasoned and just not enjoyable. The side portion of Brussel sprouts has lessened by about a third and yet the price remains the same. Service was good and drinks were enjoyable. We love this place and hope it’s not slipping...
Went to Odyssea on a Monday for lunch. It was very busy - completely booked inside, so sat outside and enjoyed the view. They decor inside is lovely, so I will book ahead next time to secure and inside table. Had a really yummy lunch, chose four of the share dishes, all delicious. Loved the snapper soft tortillas.Service is doing relatively well considering they have only just opened. I'm sure it will only get better.
Thanks Odyssea!
Fast service, although some staff could afford a little more hospitality training. None were rude, just inexperienced.
Excellent, fresh food - will certainly come back.
Sit back and relax. Fantastic view and great location and warm hospitality staff. Very comfortable chair. Good coffee with my Avocado Halomi but the french toast was very dry and I'm not sure about bananas wraped with bacon. Caramel banana cake very yummy.
Great spot friendly service and very fast with food orders. The manger was great interacting with customers, dog friendly out in the deck which was nice to see will be here again for sure!!

Second visit for brunch:
15-20 min wait for a table. Ordered 2 x Bloody Ceasars and 1 x Bellini. Very tasty. We were sat on the shared benches and I immediately noticed that the stool height to bench ratio was perfect! Never noticed anything like that before. The lady sitting next to us with her family leant over and suggested we order quick as they had been waiting almost an hour (!). It later turned out their docket had been lost and they got their entire meal for free! Now that is good service. An apology would not have cut it. Anyhow back to the food. I asked if I could get the bircher muesli with peach instead of pear and it came out with peach, no dramas, thank you! One friend got the bircher muesli with pear and the other friend got the salmon dish and we were all very happy. Whilst we were waiting for our food, the staff came at least 5 times with food that wasn't for us! Yes I will be back to try more of their dishes as I had a hard time choosing!
My first opening night! And what an opening night it was. Such a great venue, they are going to do so well. Lots of staff, all very pleasant and helpful and genuinely happy. The teething issues were as minor as a manager/owner not knowing what a lemon lime bitters is (!) and no steak knives (although the steak was cooked perfectly and didn't need one!)! My dining partners thought the Tasmanian oysters were the best oysters they've ever had. One dining partner said the salmon main was the best salmon he'd ever had! The chips came with a blue cheese and bacon dip which was divine, as were the chips. The scotch fillet was cooked PERFECTLY. The desserts were divine and very reasonable priced! In fact, the prices were very good in general. I can't remember the last time I've seen a lemon lime bitters for $3! Oysters were $3.50. Quite frankly, with this location Odyssea probably could have charged whatever they wanted and still had customers. But because they didn't, they have happy return customers. Ambience wise the decor is beautiful however the lights are a little too bright which had already been noted. Some of the runners looked a little clueless but for all we know this could be their first job ever (they were quite young) and the smiles more than made up for it. The breakfast menu looks magnificent and I cannot wait to come back.
Really good service on Saturday night, good drinks list, amazing looking cocktails. The food was really good especially the crab pasta and the chicken mains, and we didn't have to wait long for it. The entrees were good and looked lovely, but perhaps needed some sort of acid or something to lift the beetroot salad which was rather mild.
Would go back!
Overall it's a good restaurant.
Nice view of the ocean and friendly staff.
Highly recommend the potato and salad as side. Mushroom dish very tasty and Fettuccine well served and seasoned. And the cocktail Eleanor sixty it's a must.
Great spot on the beach .. surfing shop nearby so I guess you will be able to watch surfers during the day.
We walked in without booking and found a table without a problem .. but it is out of season so I think we were lucky!
The staff were friendly, helpful and well-trained which made the experience even better.
We had the bread and olive oil followed by the scotch fillet (mouth wateringly awesome!), my partner had the lamb dish. It wasn't as much if a hero. Puddings were presented and we dived in .. the bread and butter pudding was perfect!
Great place .. definitely plan a visit!
First time at Odyssea & definitely not last time.
Had a Sangria to start off with then the Lobster & crab fettuccine spot on.Full of flavour couldn't fault it.
To finish off I had the Panna cotta with the mango sorbet.
The service was very attentive & friendly.
See you next visit.😊
Great location for our Christmas Dinner!! Food was delicious!!
Could have had more dessert choices but apart from that we will be back again..
Excellent location. Fast and easy service.
Good was delicious and drinks were on point. Great lunch spot after the beach.
Ordered the kangaroo with eggplant and the cocktail special. Had so much flavour.
Decided to get a dessert drink called Toblerone which I’ll def be trying to make at home, so good!!
