DEPAUL— Duck Walk, the popular Thai restaurant at 1217 W. Fullerton, has closed. The phone's disconnected, and customers reported the shutter two weeks ago on the restaurant's Facebook page. [EaterWire]

EDGEWATER— Another dive bar bit the dust last month when Edgewater Lounge called it quits. The city had cited the bar for a barrage of violations, and the owners grew tired of running the establishment at 5600 N. Ashland. [DNAinfo]

THE LOOP— Thai Urban Kitchen has shuttered in the Loop (500 W. Madison). Customers reported it closed online, and the phone line's been disconnected. [EaterWire]

BOYSTOWN— Relish The Thought, the fast food hot dog stand at 3207 N. Halsted, is closed. The phone's been disconnected and the Facebook page hasn't been updated since March. [EaterWire]

LAKEVIEW— Sensational Bites will close on Aug. 1. The dessert cafe lasted at 3751 N. Southport for about a decade, and the owner wrote that she's ready for the next chapter in her life. [DNAinfo]

SKOKIE— Jack's Restaurant, the venerable 24-hour diner at 5201 W. Touhy Ave. in suburban Skokie, will close at the end of August. The restaurant's been open for 50 years. [Tribune]

MORGAN PARK— Nicky's Drive Thru, which opened in 1994, is closed. The fast food place at 11500 S. Western was known for its gyros. The owner cited his health problems for the shutter. [DNAinfo]
