   Hostess was rude upon our arrival. The service was SLOW. We waited ~20 minutes to get water and order cocktails, which took another 10 minutes to arrive. It also felt like the food has changed - the duck hash was totally different than we remembered. Servers were polite but it wasn't the same wonderful experience I remember.

   A wonderfully chill vibe for brunch on Sunday, the patio filled up quickly after opening. Everything we ordered was delicious.

   I went to the Duck Inn a couple of times before the pandemic and liked it but hadn’t been there for a long time. I went with a couple of friends and sat in the lovely outdoor space. They were busy but our waitress was charming and made us feel welcome. The food is excellent. I will go back.

    There were 4 people in our party. Our waiter was attentive and did a great job taking care of us. The duck entree was phenomenal! The hot dog was the best in Chicago. I couldn’t believe how good it was. We also ordered the hamburger and the beef sandwich. Both were very good. Highly recommend this restaurant!

    An exceptional meal at this gem of a restaurant. A bit noisy due to a large group in the small room on this visit. But with food like this, we will endure a bit of noise.

    My daughter and I had a great brunch/lunch. It was our first time there and we were enjoyed everything about it. The duck wings were everything our server promised they’d be, and the shrimp and grits were creamy and well-seasoned. We will go back!

    The Duck Inn is delightful. On a stormy night, the vintage vibe was welcoming. This was our second time at the Inn, bringing friends to experience what has become our fav new place when in town and it did not disappoint. We love the rotisserie duck and order it ahead of time just to be sure they haven't run out. I highly recommend the foie gras pate to start and the Brussels sprouts are really yummy. Be sure to order the duck fries which are crispy and delicious. The deserts are unique, and we love the shortcake which has pepper! Who knew?

    The outdoor seating has a casual vibe and the service staff is very friendly and helpful with suggestions - and all staff had a hip, funky flair (I'm old, so replace that phrasing with whatever the "kids are saying" these days). The food was fantastic and presented very well. We had the Duck Wings, Up N Over Burger, and Duck Inn Dog. My husband loved the wings, which I also enjoyed and my favorite was the dog. Service was stellar as they asked if we were sharing (with our kids) and since we were the pre-cut everything to make it easier to share. For drinks, I had the Devil's Tongue, which our waiter accurately described as fruit forward with a bit of the jalapeno at the end. It wasn't too hot at all, and felt very refreshing. It's a bit of a hidden gem, in the middle of a quiet neighborhood area; street parking was free and easy to find.

    We’ve been trying to get this slightly out-of-the-way spot for a couple years. So glad we did. We no longer eat meat, and that didn’t matter at all. Even their signature hotdog came in a vegan form. Service was very attentive without being overbearing. Bar menu also incredibly creative. Try the Batanga🥃

    The chicken thighs. The wings. The burger. Those were our top picks and I highly suggest all three. The octopus and the duck fries I would skip. The cocktails were all pretty refreshing and amazingly presented. I loved the intimate low key local vibe and I will definitely be back to check out the patio in the summer.

    Had a great bunch of starters including duck wings, then an excellent artisanal hot dog (had to try it at last, but sorry I did). I really enjoy their cocktails, but this time went for Ukrainian beer and vodka, part of a fundraiser. The short cake was amazing.

    The perfect place for Sunday brunch with a variety of options for those that aren't counting calories and don't mind a little meat on their plate (there are some meatless dishes, but likely some form of duck lard or dairy-based butter in everyone). The drink list was quite extensive and the best Bloody Mary one of my tablemates ever had. Service was great - we were seated immediately and our server was excellent. The food arrived promptly, was just the right temperature and had a very attractive presentation. And, most importantly, it was delicious. The ambiance was laid-back and very friendly and there was a nice happy-vibe among the clientele. This place is worth the advance planning to get a reservation (at least two - three weeks out) and worth the trek outside of the loop. I will be back.
