Andrew greeted me warmly and certainly took good care of my dining experience.

I became the odd duck tonight by requesting the tostada be taken off the Hamachi, and my server understood with curiosity and calmness. – Thanks man.

The Leche de Tigre was my favorite culinary sensation tonight because of how its edgy flavor evolves across the palate.

I’m grateful for the entirety of tonight’s visit. The team’s support through my dinner was exceptional.

What a surprisingly great restaurant and meal! The menu is so creative and the food quite tasty with truly exceptional combinations of ingredients so cleverly composed. We had deviled eggs, a super fresh crudo, amazing salads, and some incredible proteins.

My wife has two rather complicated allergies–cilantro and high fructose corn syrup–and the staff and kitchen went out of their way to mark up a copy of the menu for her so she could safely explore what options she could eat.

We are from Los Angeles and my son moved to Milwaukee recently. Odd Duck felt like a place we would have discovered back in Southern California. The sophistication of the dishes, the flavor profiles, and the quality ingredients really added up to a stunning meal.

With an atmosphere fitting the name with adorable duck decor everywhere, Odd Duck lives up to its name and delivers a memorable experience you’ll quack about.
We enjoyed the Smashed potatoes, Lamb, Beet salad, Crispy Oyster mushrooms, and my favorite was the Duck Ravioli. The Chocolate Cheesecake was fantastic with its lovely orange & chocolate combo. Don’t miss Odd Duck when in Milwaukee. ️

This was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a restaurant in a long time. The food was absolutely incredible and worth every dollar. The wine selection was also phenomenal. We were a rowdy group and probably disturbed the peace which I greatly apologize for but our server Adam did an amazing job with recommending dishes for us and cocktails. He made our night fantastic. We will definitely be back!

Enjoyed a girls’ night out with friends and had a lovely time. Made a reservation a couple weeks ago on Resy, and added my allergy info – when I arrived, they had a menu with my name on it and notes about each of the dishes that needed alterations or were off the menu due to my allergies. I was so grateful! I’ve never had this kind of service before!

Our waitress, Sophie B., was a true delight and made sure I felt comfortable with everything. Even the food runners throughout the meal made sure I knew which dishes were allergen free, and which (when we ordered doubles) was the “safe” one for me.

Sophie B. was attentive, but not intrusive (sometimes hard to do) and had a great sense of humor – we all loved her!

I enjoyed the chicken liver mousse (great sourdough), the fried sunchokes were lovely, the bison cheek was fall apart tender, but the piece de resistance was the INCREDIBLE wild boar belly – possibly the best bite I’ve ever had of pork – truly a showstopper for everyone at the table.

We were seated near the kitchen pass through, and got to see firsthand how dedicated and detailed the staff was, and the dishes were creative, beautifully presented, and delicious.

Definitely agree that you will be needing at least two plates, to make sure you have enough.

If you are looking for a quiet place for conversation, this might not be the best spot, but it felt lively without being too loud.

Will definitely return!!

Really great food and service here! This was my first time trying this spot and I’m so glad I did. The chicken skewers and deviled eggs were my favorite out of all the things we ordered.

Odd Duck is quirky and delightful. My partner and I went here for a birthday celebration, recommend getting a reservation. I loved all the duck decor. The staff was down to earth and kind. All of our food selections from the menu were adventurous but still accessible. The only thing I wish could have been better was the noise level. At some points it was overstimulating. That being said, once the menu rotates, we will be back.

Absolutely loved my experience here! When I visit a city, I love an adventurous foodie experience at least once where we can splurge and small plate restaurants are my favorite for doing just that. In a city where cheese and burgers are ubiquitous, we needed a break from typical American food and we got that and more at Odd Duck. The service was awesome from the host to the food runner (special shoutout to them) and our server. We ordered about 5/6 dishes as per our servers suggestion and I enjoyed every single one. We started with the chips and dip, the karretensalah, the hamachi crudo (as coursed by them) it was a good fresh start, my favorite being the crudo here then the salad was super fresh and I loved the touch of the apples. We went into the hot food after, which were the smashed potatoes coated in tahini and something sweet which was a nice tough to balance the savoriness and umami flavor of the tahini. Then we got the lamb manthi dumplings which were good but not as good as the Japanese beef short rib curry. So comforting and flavorful and rich! The pork belly was another favorite as well and I’ve never considered pairing with black eyed peas but it was awesome.
For dessert, we got the crème brulee (a MUST HAVE) need I say more. And the chocolate ganache cake with meringue cookies, this was good but if you choose only one go for the crème brulee.
The drinks we ordered were also very unique and flavorful. They have an extensive wine list which I enjoy but I felt like I was missing out if I didn’t order a cocktail and I’m glad I did.
Overall, loved this experience and sad I don’t live in the Midwest anymore so my chances of returning are slim but I will recommend to anyone visiting Milwaukee.

The food and cocktails were stupendous! I hope the bartender Joe gets recognition for his superb service and etiquette. I highly recommend this place to anyone who feels like they don’t fit in!

Cute place and great service. The hamachi crudo, honey crisp apple salad, and bavette steak were made with lots of love. We enjoyed celebrating our anniversary here.
