    We had such a lovely dinner for my dad’s birthday at OddFish. I left a note in the reservation about the birthday and they greeted him with a happy birthday at the door and a dessert at the end of our meal which was very thoughtful! Amazing service! Our server was very helpful in ensuring we had a well rounded dinner, and was fun to chat to as-well! Not to mention the food was unreal! I had been to OddFish once before and had an amazing meal as well, but, last night was next level. Couldn’t pick a favourite! Already excited to go back :)

    The food was fantastic, the ambience was great and the services was great. We set at the Bar as our table was in the corner and had no view. We asked the manager to change unfortunately it was fully booked but there was a place at the bar which was perfect for us as its more relaxing. However, after awhile the manager came to us and mentioned there is a table open whether we care to seat on the table, well we turn it down but its very nice of the manager to ask us first instead of just giving it to other. Beside the bar was great and the Bartender was fantastic recommed us with great food. We took the tapas and it was good choice!

    Food was very delicious, had the duck meatball, gnocchi, duck breast, and bread. All were very good hard to find anything wrong with these. If I had to be nitpicky, I wish the sauce on the meatball tagliatelle wasn't as strong/cheesey but it was still very good. Service was just perfect too, very attentive and friendly. Our family enjoyed the various lemonade flavours, especially the kids. Will certainly go back to Fable.
