Wednesday, September 16, 2026, 11:00 PM - 2:00 AM · Odd Duck, South Lamar, Austin
Odd Duck hosts a nine-course, four-course family-style wine dinner paired with rare Halter Ranch wines, with winemaker Kevin Sass on hand to talk shop. Tickets run $180 per person and this 21+ event is on September 16.
The menu moves through Texas and then veers everywhere else. Redfish ceviche in coconut lemongrass broth, pork belly chalupas, kimchi alfredo fettuccine, and a wagyu burger with fried beer cheese that somehow all belong in the same conversation. Counter seating wraps an open kitchen where every plate lands in full view, adding to the sense of controlled chaos. Michelin-recognized, with a 4:30 happy hour worth planning around, and cast iron cornbread that’s basically mandatory.
Spicy tomato pork jam, fried beer cheese, pickled squash on an aged wagyu patty.
Celery aguachile, dill chips, watermelon, sweet onion. A light, bright starter.
Thick cast iron wedge with grilled onion butter melted in.
