Duke’s Seafood Bellevue

We came cross Duke’s after watching the Snowflake Lane parade. They stood out in Google search. We queued for about 5minutes and seated in bar area which serve the full menu. They serve fresh baked sourdough bread with butter which is a perfect match. The shrimp dip honey taste good. Sea bass taco and stuffed fish are both good fits our stomach. Environment is quiet and neat. Only odds was that the liquid waste bin put just in front of us. Seeing straws floating with ice upset my stomach. Hope they will put to backside.

We found Duke’s Seafood by chance when searching for raw oysters after shopping in Bellevue Square, and it already becomes our favorite for oysters in Bellevue. The restaurant locates in Lincoln Square, just across the street. We usually come here for brunch/lunch and always get seated right away. Except for the bar area, most of their tables have a very nice window view towards the Bellevue Square across Bellevue Way. The tables and booths are spacious so we can sit comfortably. They serve warm sourdough and butter here the moment you sit down, and we enjoy that very much. Their menu has many seafood options ranging from fish, clams, to crabs, and lobsters. There are occasionally some seasonal options as well. Of course our favorite is the oysters. They usually have 2-3 types of fresh oysters daily and we always try all of them. We especially love the combination of the sauces that come with the oysters that we cannot find it anywhere else. The oysters are sweet and fresh, pair greatly with the sauce which strengthens their flavor. They are also famous for their chowders and crab un-cakes, but we are not as impressed as the oysters. In overall, Duke’s Seafood is a decent restaurant with a very good location right in Bellevue Downtown. If you don’t want to reserve ahead of time or stand in line for a table after hanging out nearby, this is a pretty good option for seafood and fresh oysters.

My husband and I visited from KC over Labor Day weekend. My husband had the combo fish n chips with New England clam chowder. He said the clam chowder was the best he’s ever had (and he’s had a LOT). I ordered the mixed grill. The veggies (snow peas) were amazing. The crab cakes were delicious, the scallops were cooked perfectly. The prawns were a little overcooked/dry but everything else was delicious. We had amazing service too.m (Cam B is what our receipt says). Would definitely go back.

To each their own, but I don’t think Duke’s lives up to the multi-star hype. A group of 5 of us dined there recently, food was average at best for some dishes, below for others. The crab cake was tasty, but not quite $27 for one crab cake level of tasty. They did live up to their promise that it was more crab than cake, so that was nice. My wife had the cioppino. It was a watered down tomato soup that was semi seafood flavored. I had the fish and chips. These were actually tasty and well fried. It was the most dense panko batter though, if it was panko at all. Again though, $35 for two pieces of fish and a cup of fries. Our server was nice and professional. But we did wonder why every table in the restaurant had what appeared to be a complimentary basket of bread except us.

I recently had dinner here with family from out of state and left feeling pretty underwhelmed. The atmosphere is nice in theory, but the restaurant is so dark that I could barely read the menu, which made it more frustrating than cozy. Service was decent—our server was polite and checked in a couple of times, but nothing about it really stood out. For the price point, I was expecting a higher level of attentiveness. As for the food, it was mostly mediocre. My fish tacos were disappointing—they came out soggy and lacked much flavor (it came with chips and salsa, which I thought was strange). Other dishes at the table were fine but nothing memorable (clam chowder, fish and chips, calamari appetizer). The cocktails were okay, but they didn’t taste very high quality or carefully made, just average drinks you could get anywhere (with a real properly stocked bar). Given the cost, the experience just didn’t match up. Between the average food, so-so service, and high prices, I don’t feel like it was worth it. There are plenty of other restaurants in the area that offer better seafood and overall value.

I’m a huge fan of oysters! I will definitely come here again. As a foreigner, it was hard to order because oysters were not listed on the menu. However, I was able to order them verbally with the staff. In my case, since I’m not good at speaking English, I found it a little difficult. But the staff were nice and friendly. Furthermore, I love the atmosphere. It feels like I’m inside a ship. For me, this is personally the No.1 restaurant in Bellevue🦪🦪🦪

Nice deco and food is seasoned well. My favorite is mixed seafood salad. I don't recommend stuffed halibut, it was so dry.

Went for a night out and got to enjoy great food and atmosphere! Wide variety of food. I had the "tantalizing silky pan seared salmon" and it was so delicious. The sauce with the salmon paired with rice and vegetables was making my mouth have a party!

6/15/2024 Located on the 2nd floor of Lincoln Square South in downtown Bellevue, Duke's Seafood beckons seafood enthusiasts with its sustainable delights! Crab Cake: Brace yourself for a crab cake that's all about the crab--plump, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The zesty lime aioli adds a delightful twist and this is my favorite dish! Seafood Chop Chop Salad: A symphony of ocean-fresh ingredients--think tender shrimp, scallops , and crisp greens. The menu is "unchopped" but I like everything to be chopped :) Whether you're here for lunch, or dinner, Duke's ambiance is cozy and inviting. The bar area might be a little bit dark, but it sets the mood for intimate conversations.

If you are craving fresh seafood and a heck of a good meal, I would recommend checking out this spot! I came here for a birthday dinner and was excited to check out the food. The interior is large with plenty of seating, and our server was very friendly and accommodating. The menu is extensive with lots of options to choose from. As you wait for your order, they'll serve fresh sourdough bread with butter. Tip: Sign up for their free Email Club on the website! When you do, you'll get an email to get any of the select classic entrées free* for joining. The selections for us included: Oh My Cod! Fish & Chips, Rockin' Rockfish Tacos, Grass-fed Cheeseburger, Unforgettable Sea Cod Tacos, Large Bowl of Clam Chowder. What we ordered: We started off with a large bowl of the "Award Winning Clam Chowder" which was covered with the e-mail sign up. The clam chowder tasted homemade with a nice consistency and was plenty to serve 2 people. I also thought it was cute that they had a little piece of paper with the recipe of this clam chowder on the bottom of the bowl. We ordered the "Off the Hook Stuffed Wild Salmon" (Stuffed with fresh Dungeness Crab, Wild Mexican Prawns, imported cheeses, pretty pesto accent, lemon beurre blanc) and the "It's So Dreamy Parmesan Halibut" (Parmesan/Asiago encrusted fresh Kodiak Island Halibut with a lemon caper butter sauce). The salmon was perfectly cooked and the stuff crab + prawns concept was unique and a complimentary combo with the creamy sauce. The highlight for me was the Parmesan/Asiago encrusted halibut which had the perfect outer crisp and was the freshest halibut I've ever had so far. The lemon caper butter sauce was the perfect pairing for this elegant dish. We couldn't say no to dessert - we ended with the "Brookie Betty Boop" (Chocolate brownie mixed together with chocolate chip cookie, baked and served warm with Lopez Island Creamery vanilla ice cream). It's a chocolate-vanilla dream! The warmness with the cold ice cream on top was the perfect way to end this meal. In addition, we ordered the "Peerless Pier Pie" (Lopez Island Creamery chocolate and espresso ice cream layered in a cookie crust with all natural chocolate sauce, homemade whipped cream and topped with toasted almonds) - This was a nice serving of pie and we enjoyed every bite of this! The espresso ice cream is unique and the cookie crust gives it such a nice texture. Make sure to get a bit of the chocolate sauce, whipped cream and toasted almonds for the perfect bite. I'll definitely be back here - Dinner was delicious and I'm looking forward to coming back! The perks of the email club is really cool too. Great food and service, I can't ask for more!

Went here for an all team admin lunch for admin professional day! Seated at a great table, decor is amazing with lots of cool boats and rods displayed! I had the fetticinine alfredo with Salmon, alfredo sauce was amazing, not bland, not overspiced, just right, salmon was cooked perfectly, nice sear on the outside, ate every bite! Wendy our server was by far the BEST server we have ever had, attentive, polite, funny....if I could steal her away to my company I would! Other servers should take a lesson from her on the right way to treat customers, BRAVO WENDY!!!!!!

John was an excellent server- giving advice for wine and food selections! He did a great job following up with us throughout our meal. The chowder was amazing and the food was fantastic from burgers to fish and chips to halibut! The Albariño white wine (suggested by John) was perfect for the meal. Of course we will return! Happy Father's Day!!

It's always a treat to come here. The service and food are always so good. My husband and I came here for lunch. We were seated immediately with a wonderful table by the window. Our server, Matthew, was attentive and took the time asking about preferences and any allergies. We ordered the crab cake sandwich which was delightful. It has plenty of crabmeat, avocado, lettuce, bacon, cheese, and tomato. This is served with sweet potato fries. I had the combo with lobster chowder. All of the food was very well prepared and delicious. The serving sizes are very good; so, bring your appetites. I would also recommend arriving early or making reservations since the restaurant fills up quickly.

It's a great place for a quick bite. Both the fish and chips and the quesadilla were delicious. For the location, I think the price was reasonable. This was enough food for two people with room for dessert. I will come back again. I think it's worth a try.

We went to Happy Hours on Monday, it was not busy. You do have to sit by the bar to order the happy hours menu, 3-6 pm. We ordered calamari and it was streak strips. It was good, tasted fresh. The crab cake sandwich was also good, it is little messy. I can tasted the crab. It has bacon and avocado on top. The clam chowder was good, the clam was smaller pieces and it has bacon bites. My sister in law likes her salad with blackened salmon. We asked for bread basket like away. It is hard to pass up good sourdough loaf with butter. Service was good.

Came in around noon on a Thursday for 5 people and was seated right away. We got a spot by the window so it was a nice view while enjoying our meal. I got the fish and chips combo with the clam chowder. I switched out my chips for a salad! I enjoyed the fish with the sauce. I also thought the clam chowder was rich and creamy. This dish was a very filling meal! I would come again. :)

I was looking for a good chowder and cocktail near my hotel, and Yelp didn't disappoint. There was a much fancier place across the street, but I wanted a bit more casual. Immediate seating at the bar and started with a nice happy hour menu cocktail, Duke's Reserve Manhattan (5/5, delish). The sourdough was delish and hard to not show down on before the bowl of North by Northwest Chowder arrived. This was cioppiono style, as I was warned by the excellent bartender, and still very good (4/5 as the large bowl wasn't as large as I'd hoped, and next time will go with the Tureen portion). Post soup, I opted for their version of a Paper Plane, the Duketail, another excellent cocktail (5/5). I'd definitely return!

My love for cucumber mojitos and all cucumber cocktails started at Duke's. I really enjoy their cocktails here, everything I've tried has been tasty. And their chowder does live up to it's reputation. Service is great.

If I could give them 6 stars, I would. Where do I begin? They seated us quickly. Our server Kevin, was great. He was friendly and knowledgeable about the entire menu. The service was excellent. The sourdough bread was warm with the right amount of butter for us to spread. Utensils and napkins were spotless and clean. Our food came out hot and fast! Large portions. Delicious meals. Quality ingredients. Fresh produce. Bib lettuce on my sandwich is always a winner! I had the cod sandwich with fries. The cod was thick and large enough to cover the entire bun. It was crispy outside and moist and flaky inside. The wedges were salted perfectly and soft inside and crispy on the outside. The clam chowder was so good with lots of bits of clam all throughout the bowl. This was perfect for a cool rainy day. The restrooms were clean! The floors throughout were spotless. The bar area was clean. Not rushed. The bartender was pleasant to everyone and I appreciated the fresh flowers placed at the mirror. Everything was neatly displayed. Just a lovely experience. I wish I could have stayed longer. We ALL enjoyed our food.

Great food, great service from Arabela. This was my first trip to Seattle and stopped here for a business dinner. Great ambience and feel. The clam chowder was amazing too! I'll be back!

I was really excited when I found out there was a dukes restaurant in a Bellevue location. I ate there twice and both times they experience was great. Surprisingly, we never wait too long to get a table. I loved the booth next to the window because it's comfortable and we have a great view. Another great point is the bathrooms if I'm not wrong, there are three unisex bathrooms and it's a private bathroom which I love. Both times I was there I had fish taco and the clams chowder. The tacos are so good it is huge so if you don't eat a lot one taco is more than enough for one person the clams chowder. Needless to say it is wonderful it's reach and there are lots of clams and very little potato, which is always a plus. It's a little pricey, but you get what you paid for and it's not really worth it. It's definitely one of the best price to have very good quality, seafood, and great service.

Dukes is a common place for having a seafood meal. It's usually busy and this wasn't the exception. Most of the tables near the window were occupied because it has a view to the park and street. Feeling of an open deck... I don't know what happened this time. I believe there were 2 staff members taking orders plus a lot that support them. Our waitress was just... not there. She was missing most of the time. Other staff members had to come back and take our order for a second time and deliver food. This lady would only pick up tip. She was apologetic the other 2 times we saw her but she wasn't around! Food took a very long time to arrived. Well, even to get the order placed. We were hungry and it's difficult with kids. BTW, all families were put together on that area. Mmmm Food as usual. Good. But yhe experience here wasn't the best. And having so many options nearby, makes it not competitive at all.

Last night in Seattle and didn't want to deal with traffic in the city so just decided to eat within Bellevue and this place fit the bill. Originally wanted to eat some local oysters and got excited at their restarurant front with all the oysters on their list but was sadly informed after seated that they only carried one oyster and it was very tiny (nudging) to not get it. Ended up taking advantage of their happy hour pricing. Not very significant but a few bucks off from their regular pricing. Tried the wild king salmon that was pretty decent. Knowing how easy it is to overcook fish, I asked to cook it more pink/medium and it turned out not bad. Not sure if it would have changed the actual sandwich but was satisfied regardless. Only minor complaint was there was a piece of bone in my sandwich and I somehow luckily caught it without chipping my teeth or swallowing it. They should have paid a little more attention to ensure they remove any bones especialy on a sandwich. I also tried the loco moca shrimp that was coconut battered and it was tasty. Good bounce on the shrimp and not too salty. I also tried their blackened halibut quesadila. Crab cake was also tasty, they brag about how they use basically no fillers and it was very notable. All places should do that honestly, we want the crab meats not fillers. Overall the food was decent, I'd probably want to come again but too bad they didn't carry raw oysters.

Have been going to Duke's for some time now and it never disappoints! From the drinks to the fresh sourdough bread to the main meal! Oh and then if u even have 1 inch of space left for dessert try one!! I would not recommend sharing cause u r gonna want the whole thing! Service was great and always has been! Looking forward to the next time there. And I never remember to take pics, but will try next time!!

Duke's definitely lives up to the hype and did not disappoint! For appetizers, we ordered the Sensational Wild Salmon Bites and the Award Winning Clam Chowder. For entrees, I got the Crabcake sandwich. Everything was so delicious. The Crabcake sandwich was juicy and has some of the softest brioche buns I've tasted. The only thing I would probably change for next time is opting out on the bacon so the taste of Crabcake pop out a bit more. Otherwise, no complaints and was certainly a treat to my palette! Service was also wonderful. Atmosphere was great, although I wish we were seated closer to the windows.

Service was amazing, food was delicious, and the ambiance was ideal for an after-workday business dinner. We were seated just about 2 minutes after we arrived, and I had even modified our reservation. My order consisted of the chowder and the pesto salmon, and both were extremely tasty and well-prepared. Finishing off our meal with a paper plane cocktail topped off my dinner very well. Our waiter was very attentive without being bothersome, and he made some great recommendations!

The first time we went and had fish and chips, it was fantastic! It was cooked to perfection, and even the coleslaw and fries were top notch. However, the second time we went it was particularly busy, and the same meal was just meh. So, although we loved it the one time, we'll probably not return quite as much due to the high price. The location is great, and the service the first time was also outstanding. All in all, we're attributing the mediocre second visit to them being so busy. We will return! And they make the best blueberry lemon drops!

Came here for dinner on a whim after browsing the mall. Food: extremely tasty. Their free bread is also amazing, excellent sour dough with a very tasty crust! I might've eaten too much of it. I ordered the crab stuffed salmon and a dinghy of clam chowder. The chowder was good, maybe the baconiest chowder I've had but also had tons of clam in it. The crab stuffed salmon was nice. The potatoes on the side were perfect-- inside pillowy mashed potato while the outside is just crisp enough to bite without being chewy. And the sugar peas were also nice and crunchy. If I came back I might consider doing a more chowder heavy choice or one of those half and half with chowder choices. (Their menu is huge. There were too many options, and they all looked good.) Service: excellent! They refilled bread and water so quickly. Overall, very tasty place and I'll have to come back to eat more of their menu. It is a bit expensive but not overpriced. Bathroom: one single room in the back

Good job! First and foremost, our server, John, was absolutely incredible and I really want to highlight how spectacular he was. He was so patient with us and so polite the entire time. Then, when our food arrived, we realized we were missing a chowder bread bowl. We figured they probably forgot but decided we didn't want the bowl after all since the rest of the meal was sufficient. Not only did John help take the item off our check, he still included the chowder bowl as a to-go item! That was above and beyond what we expected and he definitely got returning customers from that gesture alone. Thank you, John! Our food was also very good. I ordered the stuffed halibut and I cleaned the dish right up. Very yummy~ would get again! Overall a very great experience!

First time I've visited this location and it's by far one of the nicest Dukes. Maybe it's a Bellevue thing but the decor made you feel like you were on the water instead of the middle of the city. Service wasn't the best but our server was nice. Dukes has one of the best burgers out of any restaurant out there for a seafood restaurant (I recommend). Good experience overall.

Can't believe I hadn't visited this location but sure glad we finally did! For starters the service on a late Saturday night in the bar area was awesome and our server/bartender was great and friendly. We stared off with their signature clam chowder and the Dungeness Crab Dip with melted havarti cheese, roasted garlic, fresh spinach, Walla Walla sweet onions and crispy bread. The special on the night we were there was a grilled wild king salmon with a blueberry sauce on top with potatoes and a side of veggies. We also got the Duke cheeseburger with fries and the Chipotle Havarti Bacon Burger with fresh slices of avocado, nitrite-free bacon, Havarti cheese, bibb lettuce, onion, tomato, and a yummy chipotle aioli on a brioche bun. The ambiance was lively with multiple huge TV monitors around the bar area. Will make another trip back for sure!

Not sure why I haven't written a review over the years for this place - we come here on a fairly regular basis. Easy to get to, tons of parking, and many other restaurants, bars, etc. in the area in the event you don't have a reservation and the wait is too long. I'm sure the food is well covered in the zillions of other reviews - my tl;dr is that it's solid and there's something for everyone outside of perhaps The Vegans. Service is outstanding, even during busy periods. Very large seating capacity too.

While the service was great, the food was just ok for me. I ordered a stuffed shrimp dish and it was a little strange - too rich with cheese. I could not finish it. The crab deviled eggs are delicious and the blackberry cocktail is also lovely. Great location with shopping surrounding the area but you must pay for parking.

Spontaneously decided to come by Duke's for a late happy hour as we were in the area. My partner and I ordered 4 oysters and a large clam chowder (all totaling to over $30-- oysters $1 off MP and $3 off clam chowder during HH). The oysters were alright. Nice flavor but a bit on the smaller end. The chowder is supposedly "Award-winning" but I did not care for it at all. There is bacon in the chowder and I felt like that took a lot of the natural clam-flavor and made it a little too heavy for my personal taste. My partner also thought the chowder was on the saltier side. The service was friendly, but during our time dining in, we tried several times to get our waiter's attention, but she was either too busy cleaning up or chatting with a co-worker. To be fair, we did come in just in time before closing so it's understandable to be getting ready to close shop, but all we wanted was to get the check and a refill on water. Maybe just came on an off day or maybe avoiding HH close to closing would be the better choice.

Stopped by this spot a month or so ago. I've seen really good reviews here about their seafood and chowder so we had a work lunch meeting here. I ordered the Rockin Fish taco and chowder combo. The chowder was soo good, creamy and loaded with seafood. I totally missed the part of the menu that said ONE taco, I assumed it was a few tiny tacos.. Honestly I was not a huge fan of it because over 60% was the veggies and I only had some ok sized fish chunks. Because of the huge amount of veggie I didn't really taste the fish. My colleagues all ordered the fish and chips and said they were tasty. Definitely get the chowder but next time I will opt for something else for the entree. Also, you can park at the square and this restaurant will validate parking.

Just celebrated my son's graduation at Duke's yesterday. Had a group of his friends. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves!Hands down EXCELLENT from the service, location and food!!!! Perfect ending for a very special day!!! Thank you! A very special thank you to our great waiter Anthony!

Was visiting Bellevue for work and really wanted to have some seafood. Found this place and it was highly rated. Their selection was great and so was the service! I got this Dungeness Crab Stuffed Just For The Halibut and it was delicious!!! Honestly it hit the spot and I would have it again! Looking at my picture of the halibut is making me want it now :D

Really regret coming here. I had a laughably bad salad here. Honestly so shocked they called this a salad and charge that much for one that was so awful. I ordered the dungeness crab salad for takeout and it was 27 dollars. Beware it sounds way better on the menu than what I got. The small traces of bacon tasted super porky and old and there was a tiny portion of crab that was literally put into one of those plastic sauce containers. A few scraps of bell peppers and light dusting of slivered almonds.

I love seafood and was very excited to try Duke's! Their interior was decorated with a lot of fisherman/seaside vibes, which I think complemented the meal well. The server was nice, he helped point out to me that ordering the combo was cheaper than the separate dishes I originally planned on ordering. I loved the warm sourdough bread they gave us before our meal cake out. The bread was moist and delicious with the butter. Seattle's Best Crab Cake Sandwich Combo: While the original menu says that this comes with the Lobster Mobster Chowder, I was able to replace it with the Clam Chowder. The clam chowder was nice, creamy, and full of ingredients. However, it was a tad too salty for me. The crab cake sandwich was pretty good, though way too much bread to meat ratio. I ended up only eating it with one of the buns. The crab cake itself was great. Definitely filled with lots of crab, and super delicious, especially with the tartar sauce. However, the portion was smaller than I would've liked. The fries that came with this combo were okay, but too crispy for my liking.

I know I wanted clam chowder when in Bellevue area and did a search on places to go. Duke's Seafood is one of them. I was not very hungry even at 2 pm, so I focused on getting the chowder sampler. I tried all 4 different chowders in the dinghy size. So cute and really tiny. Great for sampling. There were the award winning clam chowder, seafood, lobster and a Cajun chicken corn. All these for about USD16. The clam chowder was thick and not watery at all. I liked it. The seafood reminded me of bouillabaisse though the description said it was cioppino style. A bit on the tangy side. My least favorite if I had to choose. The lobster Pernod chowder did have a strong alcoholic taste. Fortunately the anise flavor was not overpowering in this. The Cajun chicken corn chowder had a spicy kick to it. That was unexpected but it was so good too. The sourdough bread was so yummy and reminded me of those in San Francisco. Frankly it was quite the star of my snack. Service was ok though they did not bring me the menu for the oysters when I asked about it. Maybe they prefer to serve bigger groups than solo diner here. I was pretty much left to my own devices.

Amazing horderves. We enjoyed the spinach Salad and lobster stuffed egg. Tasty. The service was prompt. The atmosphere was relaxing. Good music.

Updating my review - the general manager reached out to me following my post and wanted to make things right. I returned this past weekend to give Duke's another chance and want to say I had a completely different experience. Our server, Bubba, was super attentive, patient, and kind. We ordered the crab dip appetizer, three course dinner, and "un" chopped seafood salad. Everything was delicious and tasted so fresh. The portions are really large so be prepared for leftovers! I want to also call out how great the communication was from Chris, the general manager. The same evening that I ate there, he emailed me to make sure I enjoyed my experience. I assume maybe I went at a bad time on the first visit and it was just a fluke. I look forward to coming back and want to thank both Chris and Bubba for the wonderful dinner.

Their bread is unforgettable!!! Great ambiance and bartenders!! Watch a game - Come for happy hour!! We love it!

I really wanted to like Duke's. The interior is cozy, our server was SO nice and helpful, and it's in a super convenient location. That's about all that was good about it when we visited though. We ordered several dishes that were extremely mid, and that's being generous. The calamari didn't really taste like anything - I could have mistaken it for a mushy breadstick. The chowder and bread were just OKAY. The only starter we enjoyed were the oysters - also the only dish that no one in their kitchen needed to actually cook.. The two entrees we got (crab stuffed salmon and dukes fav pasta) tasted like pure sadness. The salmon was v overcooked and if there was crab in my salmon it was unrecognizable as crab in taste, texture, and appearance. The pasta was also topped with overcooked salmon and honestly... I could get the same flavor from boxed pasta and a can of sauce from the store for like $10. I absolutely do not recommend Duke's unless you're only going for drinks and oysters.

Great food......Great Ambiance...... reasonable prices....... Attentive service.....@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

What can I say... it's Duke's! Service, food, and atmosphere is awesome!Bon appetite'!

One can always eat well at Duke's. I can't remember how many times they have provided great food and service.

We have been to a few of the Duke's several times, but I do not think I have reviewed Bellevue. They always have excellent seafood and this location is no exception. Everything feels nice and new here. Service was really excellent. We started with some red wine off the specials menu that was nice. We started with chowder that is a must if you come here. I had the lobster mobster and my friend had the normal clam chowder. Both are outstanding, but I have slight preference for the lobster. It is so rich an delicious. For the main course, I had the cioppino because I like to get the mix of seafood. Everything was good, but the prawns were probably my favorite. My friend had the French-kissed salmon that was cooked perfectly and came with a really wonderful Dijon sauce. It was another great seafood meal.

Quick trip to the mainland and had to stop in for crab cakes! As always, great food, large servings, well prepared, and attentive and friendly staff. This is one of those classic PNW places for good reason - quality, comfortable, and local seafood. My normal go to options here are the stuffed halibut, fish and chips, any salmon dish, and the great selection of local beer and wine. Upscale food, casual atmosphere, easy to recommend!

This is literally my favorite restaurant in the Seattle area. Amazing clam chowder and sourdough bread! It's the best! My husband and I usually share the unchopped salad. The cashew nuts and dressing totally elevates the salad with the skewer shrimp and scallops. It's soooo good and I don't usually order salads at restaurants, but this one is a must. We also enjoy the cod tacos and I usually substitute the nachos for their fries. I love their fries! Real potatoes, real goodness! It's amazing!

The food is just excellent. The attention to detail is very good. The staff really knows what they're doing. They're attentive and kind and just the best. I enjoy this restaurant so much whether you're alone or with your family you just can't miss on the food, the ambience and the kind people working here. Thank you so much Wendy and manager Dukes for making my life better.

Excellent service, food served hot, delicious. Thai curry was nicely balanced - not too much coconut which can overwhelm, not too spicy, just right. All the flavors and textures came through perfectly. The oyster appetizer was attractively served - a really delicious combination of lime ice and a piquant tomato salsa that complimented the oysters well. Bravo.

Had fantastic service, delicious food and great drinks. Our server was fun and professional. Our host was so nice! He made great recommendations and was a perfect introduction to our evening. Fish and Chips were delicious! And the chowder is always the best! Thanks Dukes!

If you're going to have knock your socks off prices, you ought to have the food to match. Alas, there was a mismatch between these two. I felt as though the cost of the dishes was not justified considering the quality. I was able to try the Lobster Mobster chowder and the Halibut special. The Lobster Mobster chowder was very pleasant. The broth had a pleasant, delicate sweetness, good level of savoriness, and was not over salted. On the flip side, the quantity of shrimp and lobster was rather scant. I give this one a "B" for the flavors, but points lost for stinginess. Then there came the "It's So Dreamy Parmesan Halibut". This one did not wow me on any front. The star of the plate did not seem to receive the star treatment. While cooked nice, and crusted with a thin layer of parmesan/asiago, that was about it. Anything to give the fish even a little bit of flair or oomph was missing. To be fair, there was the lemon-caper butter sauce, which added a little acidity. This sauce would have been a good compliment, but that which it is to compliment was missing. Where it comes to veggies, I did like the potatoes (who doesn't), thought the others, not so much. The asparagus was devoid of even a proper amount of salt, and the teaspoon of tomato(?) felt like an afterthought. For a small piece of unremarkable fish and some veggies and sauce, $41.90 seems very excessive! I grade this a "C", at best! The service was kind and unintrusive. Though, at these price levels, it warrants a touch more attentiveness.

Okay... I used to go to Duke's Lake Union all the time. The crab sandwiches were bomb. Absolutely loved that spot, but it was years ago. So take that into consideration when I say the crab sandwich was soggy, less crabby and a bit greasy. Caesar salad was lacking. Fish and chips were good but not great. Maybe because we were sitting inside a Bellevue building rather than in the sun on Lake Union was a factor, too. Times change.

The food was great, however the drinks were warm and the wrong drinks were served. Despite the lapses in the wrong drinks and then warm drinks being served the food was still good and recommend.

Had to give it 5 stars. Everything from the service to the food was excellent tonight. Erick our waiter was on it all evening without hovering. The Kumamoto oysters really good and fresh and their cucumbers melon ice with them was yummy. I ordered stuffed salmon and my S.O. Ordered stuffed cod. Everything was cooked perfectly and the pesto was delicious.

We ordered takeout which it was delicious. We got maple bacon seafood were phenomenal, prawns del Cabo were mighty tasty. Scallops, were medium sized.
