We had to wait more than 30min between the first two appetizers and the entrees. I understand issues happen in the kitchen. What really bothered us is that the staff was extremely dismissive about such a wait being an issue and framed it as “normal pacing of courses”. By the time the first entree came we were not hungry anymore and after asking to cancel the second one, the manager was looking at us as if we were wrong and aggressively brought the check. Amazing dishes, but disappointed at how the staff stubbornly managed what was obviously a screw up in service. Not what you would expect from a high priced restaurant.

Fabulous small plates with top-tier ingredients and tasty flavors. Odd duck is a great place for a special occasion, date night, or night out with friends. Must try the cast-iron cornbread and the stuffed quail!

- Cornbread was dry.

- Goat pizza wasn’t all that great for the price. Flavor was decent, but it just tasted like Indian curry and naan.

- Chicken hearts were great, especially with the sauce.

- Burger was mediocre. They add a lot of condiments to amp up the flavor, but it ends up being a sloppy mess.

- pickles were…pickles

Overall I would not come back here again, but it was well worth the visit.

I have had more interaction by McDonalds staff - you come in scan a code, order by your phone and the only time anyone even comes to the table is to drop things off. Not once were we asked how our meal was or if we needed anything. Food is good though but might as well be a fast food.

I decided to visit this place because it was Michellin mentioned restaurant in Austin, Texas, and, oh, boy, this place blew my mind.

The atmosphere was very elegant and decent, and the food staffs were very attentive. But what surprised me the most, as I sat close to a kitchen, was how cooks and others prepare the foods with such care.

The Melon Salad was amazing, though the signature while the Stuffed Quail was so so. However, I want to give a perfect score as this is a place that you definitely want to visit when you are in Austin. Would come back to try that Wagyu burger.

I absolutely loved the food at this restaurant! It’s super unique and innovative, unlike anything I’ve tried before. The service was excellent, and the staff was very friendly. The only downside was that I had to park a bit far away. You need to try the wagyu burger!

The food is so disappointing. The dishes were poorly executed (peach salad) overly condimented (cocktail, lamb pizza & redfish) or salty (redfish). Even the cornbread was just ok— like how?! Servers were cute and helpful but the food was a huge let down. Acoustics should be worked on too. Spot is overrated and pricey. There are much better places to go in the area.
