For the love of God... this place!!!!!
We stumbled into Duck Alley by accident, but then we discovered there is a bar in the back. I can not say enough good about this place. The people, the food, the atmosphere... all on point. When you come in, tell Emma hello! She will make your visit top shelf! Enjoy this hidden gem! #chefskiss

Wonderful place for dinner. A bit upscale but not pretentious. Food was outstanding and staff is super friendly

Great drinks, food, and service. The presentation of everything was elite. Had the pork chop special. Highly recommended trying this place out.

This place was awesome! The main highlight was the food. We had the duck wings, curry mussels, and fried mushrooms. The curry mussels were my favorite: the curry sauce was the perfect viscosity such that each slurp of mussel had a bunch of really good, creamy sauce. For my entree, I had the halibut, which was phenomenal. The fish was perhaps a touch overcooked, but it was made up for by the delicious roasted cauliflower and the amazing puree sauce -- not sure what was in it, but tasted like parseley, jalapeño, lemon, and butter. Great meal, great service. Prices were reasonable, especially for the quality of the food. I've paid much more for much worse food. A+ experience!

Duck wings are a must have at this place 🦆

Wings are well seasoned to my surprise with
Harissa (delicious) crispy and jouncy, little spicy.
Fresh beak bread with home made Boursin OMG

Long story short… we drove all the way from Chicago to this small town because we saw this place on Google and noticed it had such a high rating. We were really excited to try their duck.

Unfortunately, the food was incredibly bland. The duck and short ribs had no flavor — we even asked for hot sauce, but it didn’t help. The ribs were burnt, and the duck didn’t go well with the fried rice at all. We ended up leaving most of the food untouched.

To make things worse, the plates on the table when we arrived were dirty. They were replaced, but for a $50-per-person restaurant, that’s just not okay. Our dirty plates stayed on the table the entire time we were there.

Also worth noting — the kitchen was open, and trays with food prep items were placed right next to the bathroom door. I’ll attach a photo. Something about that setup feels unsanitary.

Definitely one of the most disappointing $100 meals we’ve ever had.

I can tell you one thing... this place is the G.O.A.T for burgers. By far the best burger, I've EVER had. If you are ever in the Saugatuck area, you need to see these peeps. Well worth the trip for a burger. Most people over cook a smash burger, not these people still cooked Medium. So so impressed. We will be back. Oh and the chips were house made, and the Duck Sauce is perfect for a burger. Get here.

This is hands down the best restaurant I've been to this year. I loved the mussels- they had some kick but not too spicy for sensitive people. The duck wings fell off the bone and portion was huge. Absolutely devoured the duck liver pate. That's more of an acquired taste but iykyk. Loved the vibe of the restaurant too and all the artwork! Service was fast and friendly, although we went for lunch so it wasn't too busy.

Went here for date night with my hubby.
Started with the Short rib hummus app. Very tasty and the rib portion was generous. It’s now my husband’s favorite item here. I had the halibut. Amazing!! Came with grilled veggies and what I think was a peanut satay. Soooo good!!! We also ordered the Lamb Ragu. One of our favorites. Had a bottle of a really nice Cab, Quilt.
Great service! Love their bartender. Team there are synchronized, happy and friendly.
I am coming back for that Halibut! Hug your chef for me!

Started things with a hazy IPA and sipped on it during the meal. We got bread with housemade Boursin which was an incredibly garlicy cheese that we even got another one of them. The bread was also for the duck liver mousse that we got, it smooth and really enjoyed the pairings that accompanied it. The feta and olives were delicious, and for the next round we indulged in this INSANE Hot Crab and Lobster Dip. The seafood portion was generous, and the cheese was so melty, I have to say that was my favorite thing I tried that evening, no question. The short rib hummus was also good, I loved the earthy taste of the hummus. The duck wings we tried were good, but I thought the harissa sauce was too hot to enjoy the actual flavor of the wings. I would get them naked next time. But thankfully, the duck fried rice came in to save the day with the confit duck and you can really taste the fatty and salty duck, it was unreal. Do not sleep on the fried mushrooms, the quack sauce they have is really all that, another favorite of mine. The market vegetables were roasted nicely and light in comparison to everything else. For dessert, we had the sticky toffee pudding which was moist and sweet from multiple avenues of ingredients. Overall, my new go-to dinner spot in the area.
