Gather at Lucky Duck — Lake Forest's private event & corporate dining venue
Private Events
Lucky Duck is Lake Forest's destination for private events and corporate gatherings. Family-style izakaya dining is made for groups — choose shared-plate packages, robata stations and a cocktail or spirit-free bar, and our team handles the details. We welcome parties from Lake Forest, Lake Bluff, Highland Park, Highwood, Libertyville and across Chicago's North Shore.
Bar & Lounge
Semi-private, centered on the whisky and sake bar — great for cocktail receptions.
