Killer ingredients & original eats, cocktails, patio hangs
"Odie B’s (formerly known as Bodega) is the kind of spot that’s obnoxiously good at everything it does, from the double smashburger that’s landed on pretty much every best-of list in town to the griddled banana bread. And while you could stay there all day and be well-fed for each meal, the best time to brave the line is breakfast, where you’ll have to choose between The Boujee focaccia sandwich loaded with scrambled eggs, muhammara, and herbed feta, and The Hustler burrito with roasted green chiles, chorizo, tots, habanero crema, and eggs. If you need more reasons to stop in, they have a Kool-Aid margarita and use Goonies posters for order numbers." - allyson reedy
"Part coffeehouse, part sandwich shop, part day-drinkers’ delight, this Sunnyside smash hit is above all more than the sum of its parts. Bangers like the Boujee (scrambled egg, whipped herbed feta, greens, muhammara, and za’atar on focaccia), the Dirty Denver (green chile–braised short rib, cheese curds, and salt-and-vinegar crispy onions on a hoagie roll), and the mixed bag of fries make fast regulars of first-timers, who return again and again to hang out on the patio over, say, vodka-spiked Gatorade or Kool-Aid margaritas. Here’s a slice of neighborhood life." - Eater Staff
" If every neighborhood had a spot like Odie B’s (formerly Bodega), the world would be a better place. That’s because people would be too busy feasting on green chile braised short rib sandwiches and banana bread pudding cups to worry about politics or whether or not people should wear socks with sandals (it’s a no, by the way). The fast-casual spot takes staples like cheeseburgers and breakfast sandwiches and makes the best possible versions, all with friendly service and a space that oozes retro ‘90s energy." - allyson reedy
"If every neighborhood had a spot like Odie B’s (formerly Bodega, but apparently a Kansas City restaurant holds the rights to the word bodega, so they changed their name), the world would be a better place.

"Opening at 8 a.m. Monday through Saturday and 9 a.m. on Sundays, this Sunnyside sandwich shop has become a citywide sensation for the love and energy it puts into the simple things — be it a BEC or a breakfast burrito — even as it whips up specials like fried chicken on a biscuit with ham gravy and chile honey or French toast with peanut butter mousse and strawberry preserves. Liquid eye-openers, meanwhile, extend beyond coffee drinks to hot spiked cider and green chile bloody marys." - Eater Staff, Ruth Tobias
