THE ODEON
Like many designers presenting collections in this year's Fashion Week (the final Mercedes Benz Fashion Week to be held in Bryant Park), Brian Reyes has many fans, both celebrity and civilian alike. The young Colombian fashion designer first appeared on the scene in 2006 and turned heads in his fall 2009 fashion show when his models went barefoot for the show's final run, due to the discomfort of the models' footwear. While no doubt inundated with praises from his own fans constantly, Reyes is also a fan himself, and is singing a few praises of his own: praises for Tribeca food fare, that is. In a brief blip from glamour.com, Reyes names Tribeca's own The Odeon and Estancia 460 as among some of his preferred grub spots in New York City.

Take a slight throwback to the 1960’s, mix it with classic culinary delights and a few tart cocktails and you'll get The Odeon. For more than two decades, The Odeon has been a haven for New Yorkers looking for deep fried frites with a side of late-night people-watching. Take a seat among the burgundy and black banquettes, and relax as ceiling fans lazily spin round above you while you sip on a minty Moroccan martini. With its dark wood accents and hints of chrome, The Odeon has the worn-in feeling of your favorite neighborhood hangout, complete with an extensive wine list and trendy drinks like The Majestic made with Junipero gin, pomegranate, orange, lime and mint.
