In an outer handle device for a vehicle door, a handle lever is operatively linked to an outer handle, the handle lever being driven by an electric actuator so that the outer handle is pivoted from a housed position to a pop-up position. A restriction device operates so as to follow movement of the handle lever toward a side that goes away from an initial position when the handle lever is driven by the electric actuator so that the outer handle is pivoted from the housed position toward the pop-up position side, the restriction device restricting return of the handle lever to the initial position side from a maximum operated position of the handle lever toward the side that goes away from the initial position. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the outer handle from rattling, thereby enabling marketability to be enhanced.
