This place exceeded expectations! The food was delicious with every dish more interesting and exciting than the last. We started with the pimento cheese and Brie and ordered the broccoli, curry with squash, wood ear mushrooms, pork belly, and short rib. The curry and short rib had to be my favorites but so hard to choose as everything was so unique and bursting with flavor. The service was top notch as week. My husband gad a few cocktails and I tried two of their mock tails which were fantastic. We finished with the brown butter pear soft serve.
Visually enticing and cozy as far as the atmosphere. The food was even better yet. We shared 5 plates and left gloriously stuffed. Im vegetarian and loved the many options. My husband is a meat eater and thoroughly enjoyed the vegetarian options. So delicious.
Wow. The food was so good I forgot to take pictures of half of it! I have Celiac and need a clean gluten free meal that has no cross contamination.
When I showed up, they had a menu ready with gluten free options already marked up. They were fully aware of how to keep me safe. Each dish was better than the next. I cannot wait to come here again, this was one of my best meals in Milwaukee, especially knowing how safe it was for me to eat.
The menu was unique and delicious! Each thing we ordered was more impressive than the last. The service was great, and the food came out very quickly. They also have lots of gluten free options. We will definitely be back!
Great cute small plate/eats neighborhood restaurant. Wine and cocktail selection was great. We ordered a meat and cheese board which was fabulous, small portions but really great selection and tasty. We then ordered 3 small plates as well which was plenty of food for the two of us. We had the short rib, duck rolls and harissa lamb. Everything was super tasty except for the lamb which was very over cooked :( great flavor but was unfortunate that the lamb was super dry and overdone which made in gamey tasting. Overall great experience and great service, would recommend

Odd Duck is the kind of experience of a restaurant you want in any city you go to. Its the kind of restaurant that represents the venue's operators lifetime of experiences of food growing up in their city and presenting an evolution of those experiences on a plate. I did my research before I came into Milwaukee and that research paid off in spades.
Come here with friends. Get a big table and order one of each off the menu. But before you go start your feast, indulge in any of their cocktails especially their Milwaukee Old Fashioned. The menu changes often but some crowd favourites remain but this is the beauty of this restaurant. It never feels stale and uninspired. On the night I went we had a Tuna Crudo with tomato and watermelon, Tuna Chorizo, Chicken Fried Oyster Mushroom (an absolute moorish of a dish and you can't stop at just one plate for the table), Duck Confit flautas, Woodfired Broccoli, Beef Short Rib ( one of the best Vietnamese inspired dishes I've had anywhere in this world) and some woodfired Za'atar bread you will always need to have room for to also order. But don't carb up too much. Save it for dessert which by this time it could be too late because you've indulged in the amazing savouries. But take a breather, and order the mochi and soft serve. This place is best enjoyed as a family share. Gone are the days of dropping courses in front of you. This is the kind of restaurant where the chef, servers and team want you to share in their food experiences with you the way they intended too.
We saw the reviews at this restaurant and wanted to check it out. We didn’t have a reservation and the only one that was available was at 9:30pm but we were able to grab an early seat at the bar. The menu has a variety of different cuisines on the menu which is normally a red flag but that was not the case at odd duck. The drinks list is quite large with a variety of non alcoholic beverages as well as beers, wines and spirits. We started with oysters and a charcuterie board that did not disappoint, with 2 Wisconsin cheeses and the smoked trout dip. For our mains we enjoyed the broccoli, mahi mahi and Haitian stew. We also got the dumplings but didn’t find them to be as flavorful as the other food, maybe not our cup of tea. For dessert we had the chai creme brûlée and custard that were incredible not only in flavor but texture. We had such a lovely meal we will be back again!
We made reservations a few weeks in advance and this place did NOT disappoint! I’m an avid global traveller was really excited to find new wines on this menu - orange wine was a fun one. Food was fabulous and the service was 6 star (out of 5)! Steak bavette just melts in your mouth. My spouse wants to return just for the corn meal ice cream. Highly recommend!
Amazing! Did not expect to find so many favorites but everything we tried was delicious. Had a mix of vegetarian & meat options and loved it all- beef short ribs, hot oyster mushrooms, and shishito peppers over honey ricotta were our favorites.
Cocktails were fancy & strong, service was excellent, ingredients are unique & local. Came for a milestone anniversary & they made our visit so special. Would recommend & can't wait to return!
Seated quickly even on a busy Friday evening, though it took awhile for the staff to figure out who should be serving me. Cocktails were tasty but not 'wow' like the menu describes them. The scallops I ordered were cooked perfectly and I enjoyed the sauce/pairings with the dish. Everyone was friendly and gave me recommendations for other restaurants in the area to try.
