After just a few months, Laughing Bird in Lincoln Square has closed, chef Chrissy Camba confirmed via Twitter Sunday evening. The last day of service was Saturday, she said.

A little before noon Sunday, this message was posted on Laughing Bird’s Facebook page: “After 5 wonderful months in Lincoln Square, the owners of Laughing Bird have received a generous offer on the business and location … and, have decided to take it! Thank you all for your support and business!

“Chef Chrissy will be moving on to pursue an exciting new concept of her own. Expect to see pop-up previews in the coming months. She will also be spending time working with some of the farmers and artisans that she has been building relationships with for the last few years and volunteering at the Red Door Animal Shelter.”

In his review earlier this month, Tribune Phil Vettel described Laughing Bird as a “low-key, friendly Lincoln Square hangout” with a “very personal, very accessible menu.”
