About Lucky Duck

Lucky Duck in Lake Forest is an amazing restaurant known for its variety of small plates. Standout dishes include duck wings, wagyu sliders, duck wontons, and unique buns. The flavors are consistently praised as outstanding and unique, making it a must-visit. The restaurant also has a nice whiskey selection. Prices are considered moderate to high, with $10 for 4 duck wings and $7 for the "Chicago Handshake" cocktail.

The food leans toward pan-Asian gastropub, and the ambiance has a quirky feel, sometimes compared to an amateur theater space. While there are some service kinks to work out, the kitchen delivers exceptional food. Customers describe the wontons as almost like pierogi, with tremendous umami flavor, and the bao buns are out of this world. The menu is small but packed with flavor, offering good value that is not often found in the North Shore. Some customers have noted that dessert portions could be smaller, preferring a more delicate touch. Overall, Lucky Duck is a delightful spot that invites repeat visits.
