While the service has never been great, you truly come here for the view. Live music is always really good. But overcooked burgers and overcooked fries just don’t cut it anymore. And on top of that, there isn’t a server or bartender in that place that actually cares. Only reason the rating isn’t lower, is my girlfriend absolutely had a wonderful sushi dish. Wake up owners of Dukes!!!When you order a burger medium and it comes out extra well done you have a problem.When you’re overcooked burger and overcooked fries are delivered by a food runner and they don’t offer to bring you any condiments. You have a problem. When you’re two bartenders can’t even greet somebody with a simple, friendly “hello”, you have a giant problem.

We stumbled upon this place and we are glad we did. The smoked fish and the coconut shrimp were amazing! The staff is super accommodating! And the view is amazing.

Typically I love this place…but tonight the hostess was extremely rude to me and my father. Very disappointed and it wasn’t warranted.

This is a laid back bar pub. Good music, if you're looking for a bar on the water to hang out. Food was horrible for seafood. Wasn't fresh, it was frozen. Ordered mahi tacos with beans and rice, awful. Shrimp appetizer was frozen from a bag already made up from a coconut mix.The mussel appetizer was in thick garlic cream sauce, awful. Stick with a burger, can't go wrong. High prices for awful food.We had to continue to ask our server for stuff.I won't come back.

This is a really nice back laid bar and grill right on the water with a great view. Servers were friendly and attentive. They have TVs to watch a game and live music as well. Plenty of seating in a casual open- air style. Available dock space if coming by boat. We stopped in for a drink but did try an appetizer as well - the grouper nuggets, which were very good. Not the cheapest place but reasonable prices for the atmosphere. Great weekend spot!

Easily one of our favorite daytime weekend spots.Drinks are good, the general vibes are very chill (so is the staff, so don't come here expecting Bern's table service and then get upset) - they're almost always nice and they haven't ever gotten our order wrong.I forget to take pictures every time I come here because I'm too busy shoveling muscles and shrimp and Piña Coladas into my mouth.A bit pricey but it's a seafood restaurant what did you expect?The sushi is also really solid, I am a big fan of their sandwiches, and the views are great of course.When the weather is good December to March this is the place to be.

Great food, great service, good prices. TV volume way too loud during Bucs games, especially during commercials.

We absolutely live this place! Hard to imagine but they have the best Lo Mein anywhere! Give it a try you won't be disappointed. Great Sushi and drinks as well. The Paradise Roll is our
Dining for dinner on Sunday night with 3 Adults and an infant was pleasant on the rear deck with Jacob L. Drink menu looked good but we passed and just did food as it was almost the 9 month olds bedtime. The entrees were all great and the children’s menu did not disappoint. The kitchen prepared it so the grilled cheese was manageable and the side of fruit was presented very well for infant consumption, not many other restaurants would think ahead to make sure the child’s food was appropriately sized, portioned and presented, Bravo! Thank you kitchen staff and Jacob L for getting us in and out with an enjoyable time having been had by all, including the 9 month old.

Somewhat hidden location. Wonderful bay front and marina view! Massive two sided bar and plenty of outdoor deck seating. I went with a large 20 person business party - all diners (including myself) were happy with their assorted meals. I noticed fairly generous portions for everyone. Service was also excellent. Pricing however is a on the heavy side - I ordered an “old fashioned” and it was 15 bucks - just to give you idea of prices. If that doesn’t bother you, give it a try.

The food was average at best and VERY expensive. The service was VERY poor. For example, our waiter had help from another waiter and the helping waiter kept letting us know he could not help us with our requests like for catchup and that he had to take care of his own tables. Our waiter was nearly nonexistent. The restaurant did not tell you this, but they add a 20% automatic tip which was excessive given the inflated prices and poor service. The view is nice, but there are lots better choices. My wife wanted to try the restaurant but we will not return. I would AVOID. So many places with eaqully nice locations, better food and service.

The staff was professional and courteous. Service was very good. Food was great. Sitting outside overlooking the bay added to the overall experience.
