    I slipped into Duke's for an early solo dinner. The burger is a consistent favorite, and the seasonal mixed berry shortcake was amazing! My server was attentive without being intrusive. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    We sat on the patio and had a beautiful view of Mt. Rainier! The food was delicious and the chowder was exquisite. It's a little on the spendy side, but so, so tasty!

    They are known for their clam chowder. I don't care for clam chowder, however, I do like fish and chips. Their fish is nice cod and pretty darn good, but the chips part of that is NOT. The tartar sauce and ketchup were okay but the slaw was just cut up cabbage. My husband ordered the rockfish taco that comes with tortilla chips and salsa. According to him, they were pretty good. His dish came with a small bowl of clam chowder which doesn't belong with tacos and salsa. It just doesn't. With one exception, the carrot cake was good for dessert however, I asked for Sweet N Low with my coffee and was given stevia and sugar in the raw. The wait staff is exceptional and attentive to the diner's needs. All in all, it was a free birthday meal and worth it.

    It was really loud and the music was way too high. Service was way slower than usual. I was told by a waiter a while back that since I cannot have butter that I can sub for avocado, so I always asked for it with the bread. For the first time ever after many years of getting it for free, I was charged almost $3 for it without even being told. It then took almost 20 minutes for the bill to come after I’d already given her the card. I’ve always enjoyed coming to Dukes, but this time wasn’t pleasurable for our date night.

    Amazing service by Kate with an incredible view on the patio. The food and drinks were delicious and overall it was a pleasant dining experience. I would recommend to anyone looking to enjoy a delicious meal with a beautiful view and great service (not to mention ample parking as well).

    My parents flew out from PA to visit me in WA for the first time and our first stop after the airport pickup was Duke's. From the beautiful balcony food, the wonderful soup and salad and the wait staff that went above and beyond, everything about our experience was excellent. Thank you for such great first impression. As a bonus, I am celiac and my concerns were handled seriously and professionally. Thank you! We will be back for sure

    The salads were great but the combo with a fish taco and cup of chowder was very expensive for what it was. There was not a lot fish on the taco - just a lot of cabbage.
