    The hostess threw the menus on th e table with only 1 happy hour menu when there were 3 of us. The waiter totally made up for her frumpiness. The food was fine, but 3 people for happy hour for $200.00 before tip is too much.

    Duke’s is a local institution. Love the Greenlake location and sitting outside on a warm day. Front desk check-in seems a bit scattered. It is definitely crowded at that area. Once at our table service from Edie (sp?) was excellent. Food is good but egregiously overpriced. The cost of one crabcake was $20 and it was no bigger than a potato pancake; definitely not a revelation. Two very large fish tacos were excellent but $28. I have no problem paying somewhat inflated prices for food as long as you leave the restaurant thinking it was definitely worth every penny. When asked point-blank if the lobster chowder has lobster in it, our server told us ‘no’, it has shrimp in it. While the food at Duke’s is good, the value for the money is poor. If you are trying to impress out-of-town guests, go to the grocery store and buy some fresh seafood and cook it on your grill at home.

    Food was good waitress forgot to get us bread after she asked if we wanted some, we were really hungary! They also wouldn't make the drink that I wanted waitress claimed the bartender told her that they don't have the ingredence anymore. Which was odd as I saw all the same ingredience in other drinks on thier menu. Other than that the food was quite good.

    Consistent, very savory and always feels like a special occasion. We're neighbors of Green Lake Duke's who took out of town guests here for a birthday dinner. We all ordered different things, so there could have been room for some things not beings good as others. But everything was exceptionally good. Fish tacos were perfectly cooked and with complementary savory sauces and seasoning. The fried calamari was remarkable. Three kinds of soup, all different and could not decide which ones we liked best. And Marionberry pie with ice cream for dessert--heavenly. We were seated on the patio by the sidewalk, so noise level was not high where we sat. I would probably request that kind of seating next time I go, since there are places inside and on the patio where noise level is uncomfortably high.

    Food was excellent, the sourdough bread is wonderful. Service was outstanding; we decided to share everything, and the waitress got it divided onto separate plates for us so we didn't have to do it.

    Have the deviled eggs - they’re worth it. Great service, just the right pacing. Entrees were delicious. My husband swears but the stuffed and puffed prawns. I keep mixing it up. It’s Duke’s, always reliably great.

    We chose to eat inside, with the air conditioning. We were early (about 5:30pm) and not many people there with us, although the patio was quite full. Service was prompt and all of the food was delicious. One person had the cioppino, another had the rockfish taco with chowder, and I had the cod taco. We shared the salmon slider appetizer. No one had room for dessert.

    We were really disappointed in the blackened salmon salad and the mixed greens salad, which used to be our favorites. The "blackened salmon" was not blackened and was dry/overcooked. The salad under the salmon was only lettuce instead of mixed greens. In both salads, the pecans were unappealingly sugar-coated and there was no longer any fruit (strawberries, grapefruit), and the option of goat cheese instead of blue cheese was no longer available. We used to love those two salads at Dukes, but they are no longer worth the expensive price. On the other hand, the service is still great as well as the outdoor ambiance. On the whole, we can no longer recommend Dukes to friends as we have always done in the past.

    One of my favorite restaurants! For lunch this time I had the Tiny Bites (I think that's the name? ) Very delicious bacon wrapped scallop and prawn, one of each. They're in a dipping sauce made with syrup. Super good, sweet. The other was a hard boiled egg with a tiny bit of Dungeness crab. Loved the scallop and prawn and liked the egg but not as much.

    The hostesses were clearly overwhelmed with the number of customers. We waited a couple minutes for our table. We had requested to be seated outside (notes in reservation) knowing it was a request. Hostess made no comment and showed us to a table that was where all other customers were congregating and takeout orders were being picked up. We then asked to be seated outside and were moved to a waitlist for outside. We were quoted 60-90min wait. We left and returned when the table was ready almost 2hrs later. When we arrived back, the same hostess who helped us initially asked if we wanted to be seated inside or outside. Understanding it was a nice day and that we were not guaranteed a table outside, but what was frustrating was that they made no reference to say they tried to seat us outside or to ask if we preferred to wait. And then they tried to seat us at what we know from experience is the worst table in the restaurant. No point in making reservations. Just put your name in and go somewhere else for a drink. Once we were seated, the service was cordial but slow in spite of the crowd having died down significantly. We live nearby and visit frequently so will return. But was quite a letdown when we tried to actually plan an evening there.

    Had a wonderful meal to celebrate my 50th birthday with my family and had one of the better meals in recent memory. The chowder was fantastic and went with the fish and chips for my main course. They fries were well seasoned and really thick. The cod was delicious and the panko had a great crunch to it. We started with calamari strips and the aioli dip was spectacular. Not sure of the name of the other sauce with wasabi - but I really enjoyed that too! Service was attentive and prompt and had no problem getting in with a reservation. Will absolutely go again!

    We went for Easter brunch. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Overall the food was good as it usually is except for the "Crab un-cakes". We ordered the cakes as an appetizer and were pretty disappointed when it arrived. One tiny crab cake sitting in the corner of a giant plate. Taste was unimpressive. The worst part...$19.95! Now we know not to order Crab un-cakes again. This won't stop us from dining at Dukes again though...just won't order crab cakes!

    Dukes is one of my favorite restaurants. I love going there for lunch and dinner. We decided to try your Easter brunch and it was really a big disappointment. There were only four brunch selections available. I had the eggs Benedict with crab. There was just literally a teaspoon of crab thrown on each English muffin very little hollandaise sauce that was flavorless. A big let down from a restaurant that usually serves delicious food. My partner had French toast it was OK. We never got a refill on our coffees now to flag someone down to get ketchup and syrup.

    The food was great as usual. I had the eggs bene-duke, and my wife had the french toast. We are regulars at Duke's. My only complaint would be with the Bloody Mary. Not only was it overpriced for the very small size, it lacked all the pizazz that good Bloody Mary's have. Two shrimp that were overcooked, tasteless, and rubbery, a super tiny asparagus, and no celery. Suggest you copy either Chinook's or Anthony's.

    Excellent Easter Brunch at Dukes Greenlake! We would love to have Duke's do regular Sunday Brunch. Our Crab Eggs Benedict was superb, and you can't go wrong with the Crab un-cakes- stuffed with crab. Best Drink ever was the Bloody Mary-served in the most amazing glass-would make you question if your last evening's partying was too much!

    Unfortunately a bit disappointed with this experience. Food was greasy and overpriced. I love fish tacos and was excited for these but they were just okay. For $27 they should have been much better. Also it was $21 for 1 taco and $27 for two?! What a weird pricing setup.
