About Dukes Bar & Restaurant

Dukes Bar & Restaurant, which opened in early 2024, is still experiencing growing pains as it finds its footing. On a busy Valentine's night, the service struggled, with delays and a maitre d' who was overwhelmed covering multiple roles. Guests noted that the steak was not served as ordered and that the food did not meet expectations for the price, leading to an overall disappointing experience despite a reduction in the bill. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere, and the food is generally tasty, with dishes like burgers, flat iron steaks, and dirty fries receiving positive mentions. However, service remained slow even during quiet times, and accidents, like a spilled drink, added to the frustrations. While the staff was apologetic and accommodating, some guests felt that more proactive measures could have been taken to address the inconveniences. The noise level in the restaurant was also a concern, and while the selection of starters was noted, some items were considered expensive for what was served. Suggestions for improvement included a kids menu, better drink options, and more attentive service to enhance the overall dining experience.
