Located smack-bang between Central and Broadway, you’ll find Holy Duck! on Sydney’s favourite foodie laneway, Kensington Street. This is modern-Chinese cuisine at its ducking best. You’ll be saying “duck me!” when you taste how they transform traditional dishes into exciting new favourites. With a diverse menu of casual eats and next-level Chinese BBQ, Holy Duck! is a nod to the joys of Chinese street food.

Watch as the chefs expertly prepare crispy, succulent ducks from the huge, traditional hanging gallery. They’re delicious! Not in the mood to duck? No worries. There’s plenty of other meat and vegetarian options. Love hot and spicy? Just ask your friendly waiter for more chilli; that’ll really set off some firecrackers.

    Fantastic food and really great vibe, but Service was very slow and hard to come by without asking for assistance. Long wait to get in the door (15 mins in a queue) even though we’d made a reservation and we on time. Overall a good experience but essential to book

    All you can duck menu was great value but the service was a massive let down. From the minute you sit down it felt like they were rushing you about the 90 minute limit. That’s completely fine if the service was attentive and the courses actually came out as diligently as they want customers to eat them. We literally got served our last course and drinks and they expected us to finish it within the minute. Understand there are other reservations after us but the manner of which it was handled left a really bad impression. We would’ve been happy to skip the ice cream or if we were warned in the middle of how much time we have per course in a more polite manner it would’ve been better. It such a shame because the food was great especially the main.

    Great tasty food, pleasant overall experience. We did get the seating we had requested. It was rather noisy with the speaker right above our table, and a loud group next to us.

    Food is delicious, and it’s a very nice stylish restaurant. The street is vibrant. Unfortunately the staff/ service is a little average

    Group booking for 13 made easy by pre-ordering. Service was fast and efficient, and the food was absolutely delicious. Great menu for sharing for a big group and able to cater for gluten free. Everyone really enjoyed it. Thank you, will visit again.
