ABOUT

HELLO AND WELCOME!

In August of 2016, owners Erik Kleven and Jennifer Lester joined forces as strangers to prepare and execute an eight course charity dinner in the very space that would house the Bleu Duck a year later.

The historic Conley-Mass building on 4th street SW was under full construction at the time with no kitchen, no dining room, and just the bare bones of a restaurant in the making. Their ability to execute this dinner as a team made it clear that they would have a strong partnership as they cultivated Bleu Duck into the unique dining experience that it is today.
