    Got dinner last night for Memorial Day. Sat outside, and was the perfect day for it. Beautiful spot, terrific service, and both of our dinners (stuffed salmon and the shrimp tacos) were EXCELLENT!

    As always, a dinner on the deck at Duke's is an amazing date night. The food was amazing, the service was spectacular, and it was so relaxing to sit out on the deck looking at the water in the nice weather. The slightly higher prices are always worth it for the fresh fish and great wine. Will always return, we are locals!

    10 stars! Everything was spectacular. Best experience and will definitely be back more often. Matt was an amazing server, the food was out of this world and from drinks to apps to the meals to dessert. Even the coffee and bread basket were 10 stars. Don’t skip Duke’s!

    Our first time dining there. We opted to be seated outside - the weather was gorgeous, the food excellent. The only problem- was our table for four wasn’t large enough to hold all the plates we ordered. Obviously, not a real problem. We had a lovely time.

    Honestly from the moment my daughter, granddaughter, and I walked in everything couldn't have been more perfect. I had macadamia crusted halibut, and my daughter had blackened salmon and they were absolutely delicious. Honestly, 2 of the best meals we've ever had. We also had blood Orange margaritas that were amazing. I was celebrating my 63rd birthday and it could not have been a better choice. Our waitress was absolutely amazing couldn't have been more perfect. She truly seemed like it made her happy to know that we enjoyed ourselves so much on my birthday. I hope I'm correct but I believe her name was Natalie.

    Our waiting staff helped each other out and it felt like a "down home" experience, like we all have been friends for a long time. For us, where all our family is on the other side of the Mississippi, the friendly chatter was like a balsam to our well being. And the food was absolutely prepared as we asked it to be... a rarity with similar dining places.

    I don’t know what happened, but I came with a friend and had the fish and chips late I. The afternoon. The fish was dry and very over cooked - had to use force to eat the fish because the breading was so dry and tough and very very brown. The French fries were a bit soggy and not hot - and the cole slaw was spare and almost tasteless. Duke’s has been our go to for years. I’m sad and reluctant to write this, but if things don’t improve Duke’s is going to lose a lot of business. I want my old Duke’s back. Service was great as always, but it didn’t make up for the quality of the preparation.

    Great food. Quality of fish best I've had in a long time. Perfect waiter. Also seated promptly on a busy day (had a reservation). The high prices were the only thing that was just a bit much to swallow. I know good food costs money, so I dont want to complain too much.
