We’ve been through Livingston a few times and have meant to stop by. Last night we finally did. The catfish sandwich was awesome. Two thick filet slabs dressed with pickles and tartar sauce. The fries were very good too.

My wife had the mussels and a side of grilled asparagus (no picture of those, sorry). She was pleased, but strangely they do not offer a portion of grilled bread with the mussels. The server offered garlic knot bread for $1 – it was tiny.

We sat at the bar and service was good despite being busy.

Have been meaning to stop by based on a recommendation and finally made it out to Livingston from Magnolia.

Seriously the best ribeye I’ve had in a hot minute. Thomas did an amazing job cooking it to perfection!

My wife and I tried the Blue Duck today for the first time. We were not disappointed. I had the fried catfish, she had the Ceasers salad and Mac and cheese…..both very good.

The Blue Duck is a really cool spot in downtown Livingston. Affordable and delicious food is hard to find but this spot delivers. Nestled right in the heart of downtown Livingston the Blue Duck offers crafted dishes with delicious sides at a very reasonable and affordable price.

For drinks I had the house margarita and it was tasty and strong. Our family had the spinach and artichoke dip and it had great flavor and was able to feed 4 people. Chips were also seasoned and had good flavor. For dinner I got the sautéed shrimp, my wife got the chicken fried steak, parents got the special and all dishes were on point. Our server was very nice and the manager/owner came over and spoke with us. He was also very kind and spoke with my 4 year old for about 5 minutes.

Overall very nice spot in a cool location. Great food for an affordable price I highly recommend.

I finally made it out to Blue Duck Kitchen & Bar and honestly, it exceeded every expectation I had. This isn’t just another local restaurant — it’s the kind of place that makes you genuinely look forward to going out to eat.

Right from the start, the atmosphere hit the perfect balance: lively and inviting but not overwhelming. Whether you’re heading there for a casual dinner, drinks with friends, or a date night, it feels comfortable and relaxed without ever feeling generic. The décor and layout are thoughtful — not flashy, but definitely memorable.

The menu? Outstanding. Every dish I tried was clearly prepared with real skill, not just thrown together. The flavors were bold without being heavy, fresh without being confusing, and absolutely balanced. I started with an appetizer that was creative and flavorful, and each course that followed kept building on that good first impression. Portions were generous, too — plenty of food without feeling like you’re overstuffed.

What really sold me was how every plate tasted intentional. You can tell the kitchen cares about the details — the way flavors layered, the way textures played off each other, and even how each dish looked when it was served. That kind of consistency is rare, even at places that think they’re fine dining.

Service was equally impressive. Our server wasn’t just friendly, they were attentive without hovering, knew the menu well, and offered recommendations that genuinely improved our meal. It’s always nice when staff can talk about food like they actually enjoy it themselves — it makes the whole experience feel a lot more personal.

I left feeling completely satisfied — not just because the food was great, but because the entire evening felt thoughtful from start to finish. If you want a place in Livingston that combines quality food, a great vibe, and service that actually elevates the experience, Blue Duck Kitchen & Bar is absolutely worth your time.

Five stars well earned — I’ll definitely be returning.

We really enjoyed ourselves today. All the way around it was a very nice experience. I had the special which was a unique take on shrimp and grits. Execution was awesome. Anytime I come back, from now on, my first question will be, “what’s your special today?” So good! My husband had a chicken Ceasars salad and also enjoyed his meal. Drinks were fine. Service was responsive, friendly and quick. All around a cool vibe with nice bluesy music.

Small town place. My mother and aunt and uncle live local and are regulars. My daughter used to work there. We recently had my mom’s birthday lunch there. Everyone who saw her wished her a happy birthday, had a smile on their face. Daja was a wonderful waitress and even took the time to let my 5 yr old try to flirt with her. It was a wonderful time. Definitely going to be going back

Fantastic food, craft cocktails and great service all in a historic building right across from the square. The cocktails were high-end Houston quality without the Houston prices. The flank steak and chicken fried steak was fantastic. Everything was seasoned and cooked perfect (I ordered a rare flank steak) …who knew Livingston had great food!?!

The first time I ate here the food was too salty. I couldn’t even hardly eat it! I decided to give this place another shot tonight-well, my salad was so wilted that I had to remove most of the lettuce. They tried to hide it under all the fruit, but it didn’t work. My husband’s fish sandwich was good and the other day he ate here with a friend and said the hamburger was good….. so there’s pros and cons! And that fan in the bathroom is so corroded with dust it definitely needs a good scrubbing!
