Duck It Aarhus

After a tour of the entire Aarhus street food scene, my first choice was the "Duck You" burger from Duck It, along with a portion of duck-fat fries and a spicy dip. The burger consisted of confit duck, pickled red cabbage, a house sauce, and a fluffy brioche bun. In fact, the burger was a bit underwhelming and surprisingly bland. The duck was okay, but already somewhat dried out and not as juicy as one would expect from confit duck. Despite being pickled, the red cabbage definitely lacked punch and, above all, acidity. It wasn't bad by any means, but I had expected a much stronger flavor explosion overall. So, for me, the burger unfortunately landed in the average range. The fries, on the other hand, were top-notch. The type of fat used for frying really makes a difference, and you could taste it immediately. They were also perfectly salted and beautifully crispy. The accompanying spicy dip, however, was unfortunately just spicy, lacking any truly complex flavor profile. A bit of a shame.

The salad is great and the cook too!! I had a wonderful lunch :))

Enjoied the duck you. Maybe a pinch dry, but newer the less good.

I've been to this place many times and tried various items on the menu. Everything was delicious and definitely worth recommending. The duck fat fries are very interesting, tasting different from the classic ones. The wait time is very short. You can customize your meals (remove ingredients you don't like).

Service was fair but average, short wait. Large portion of fries (the amount in the picture is half a portion), which I don't think tastes 'different' than what fries usually do. The burgers were good. Nice amount of duck, which tasted good. I could have used more red cabbage - it's a strange place to save. And I don't understand why there's arugula in it, you don't always need some green. I think it's way too expensive to charge 15 kr for packaging. All in all, absolutely fine, would come again.
