Odd Duck brings the spirit of Austin to its eclectic and unique plates, with a focus on local ingredients and sustainable practices.

Odd Duck also has an extensive craft beer and cocktail list so you can select the ideal complement to your meal. Try the cold shoulder with Scotch, espresso and toasted almond liquor for a delightful pick-me-up. Odd Duck's made-from-scratch and high-quality standards are as refreshing as its food is delicious.

We LOVED Odd Duck! Came for our Anniversary and they were so sweet to treat us with a complimentary glass of bubbly and a free dessert! Our service was amazing - Lauren did an incredible job - and the food was just so unique. EVERYTHING we had was so interesting YET tasty. Unfortunately we live outside of NYC or we would go back and try 5 more dishes! Odd Duck is SUCH a find! WHAT A PERFECT spot for a quick bite, a romantic dinner or a tasty family meal! GO GO GO!

We've not only not had a bad experience at Odd Duck, we've never even had a bad dish. Our first brunch visit will not be our last because, based on the dishes that passed us by, we need to explore the remainder of the menu. Great brunch cocktails, amazing, buttery pastries, innovative dishes and awesome service. A top 5 Austin restaurant for any meal.

Amazing place that is fit for foodies! Took my boyfriend and he thought he was going to starve. I love tapas restaurants but the prices were a bit high for the tiny portions they had.

Odd Duck is a fantastic, farm-to-table dining experience in Austin. My daughter picked this one out and we enjoyed our dinner. The menu is quite varied and consists of small plates, all of which are creative and delicious. We really enjoyed the blue crab salad, the hot bread with housemade butter, and the braised goat. The latter dish was incredible, to be clear. But do save room for desert and order the apple fritter with sour cream ice cream. Don't even look at anything else on the desert menu! This dish is unreal. In fact, I would suggest you begin the meal with this desert--seriously. It's that good. Service was attentive. Wine list was very good.

I get the small plates idea -- and even like the idea of trying a bunch of different things, but you shouldn't leave hungry after spending $50+ a person. Also, some of the combinations didn't quite work ... Also, waitress definitely wanted us to leave after a certain point. She knew I wanted to get dessert because I had asked for the dessert menu, but instead of asking me for my order she just brought the ticket. (From reading other reviews, it seems they like to turn over tables as quickly as possible.)

As always, the dishes were delicious! You can't go wrong ordering anything on the menu but Odd Duck especially does amazing things with goat.

Met for a business lunch and sat on the porch. Terrific service, creative food and quiet ambiance. Will definitely come back. Would be good for another business lunch or for a date.

Delicious food and cocktails. I recommend the whiskey & cider cocktail. The gnocchi was my favorite of the many fantastic dishes I tried. The red corn ice cream is a great finish.
