Reservations
Current state-wide mandates restrict reservations to 10 or fewer diners. For groups of 6 or less you may use the Resy link below to make your reservation. At this time Odd Duck will operate on a reservation-only basis. We are operating at 75% capacity so reservations are rather limited. If you do not see the time and party size you are looking for, please try a different day/time combination. If your party is between 7-10 diners please refer to "Large Parties and Buyout Information" below.
Large parties and buyout information
- For the time being, we are not accepting reservations for groups larger than 10 diners. Eventually, we will be able to accommodate large groups again and welcome all inquiries. Please fill out the inquiry form by clicking the "Book A Large Party Or Event" button below. All inquiries are answered in the order they are received and within 24 to 48 hours.
**Your booking is not complete until you have finalized all details with our event coordinator.**
History
In 2009, brothers Bryce and Dylan Gilmore purchased a Fleetwood Mallard trailer with a mission to turn it into an eatery serving only food with ingredients from local Austin farms. After a drive to Wisconsin to pick up the trailer and a hundred or so man-hours rehabbing it and outfitting it with a wood-burning grill, they named the trailer “Odd Duck” and opened that December. The trailer became instantly beloved by the city and afforded Bryce national recognition and acclaim as a chef while simultaneously helping put Austin’s local food scene on the map. Bryce began buying whole hogs from a local farm and using it from snout to tail throughout the week, sourcing local eggs from a farmer, whom he still exclusively buys his eggs from today, and started frequenting the (at the time) small Saturday farmers market where local farmers still did not sell wholesale to restaurant owners and chefs. Much of that has changed today due in part of Odd Duck’s mission, as well as Bryce’s commitment to cook and serve innovative dishes using only locally sourced goods.
