About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Charming
Neighbourhood gem

Our Chef’s take inspiration from Billy Madison who drew a blue duck because he had never seen one before, and he wanted to see a blue duck! Well, since our chefs love classic Adam Sandler humor and innovative cooking, we thought that Bleu Duck was the perfect name to showcase our fun environment and staff as well as our unique and creative menu. Just like Billy, we like to try things that you’ve never seen before!

Bleu Duck Kitchen and Oyster Bar is a full service restaurant that provides a fun and welcoming atmosphere where white linens meet a casual feel to create the new concept of “fun-dining”. Co-Owners Erik Kleven and Jennifer Lester regard each customer as a welcomed friend, and aim to provide them with an experience that is both personal and unique every time they visit.

Don’t order steak, I’m not sure why but they have a hard time serving a tender steak. It’s hard to screw up crème brule but, wow it’s not a that hard. Hope they can figure things out I love this place!

The food was amazing—appetizer, main dish, and dessert. The braised lamb was so delightful! I was raving about the rich flavors that melted in my mouth. The best meal I’ve had in the past year Bleu Duck is my new favorite restaurant! Loved it all!

Excellent Cousine, great service. The place is a bit small so you end up sitting quite close to other tables. The price to value ration is great and the quality of food is superb
