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.

It's my first time here. I used to frequent Pescara when it was open, and this was a good reminder of that excellent restaurant. I had the lasagna with meatballs. I was skeptical of lasagna without meat sauce, but it didn't need it; it was that good. The meatballs were also excellent. My wife had a steak with the demi glacé sauce and smoked gouda hashbrowns. It was just as she remembered from Pescara.
