In Short
Duke Moscrip's first place was opened on Lower Queen Anne in 1976 and has since expanded to three waterfront locations (Green Lake, Alki Beach and Lake Union). The seafood-centric menu includes half a dozen… Read Full Editorial
Excellent Service Thanks to the Manager! by AcritIC via Citysearch on 3/30/2012
The Manager at this particular location understands excellent customer service and knows how to turn bad service around. We came here and received horrible service with a bad attitude and when we asked for the manager, he was friendly,…
Definetly not coming back by Dahliada via Citysearch on 8/23/2009
Very slow service. Overpriced food. I had Lobster Pernod chowder and it was rather starchy instead of creamy. I guess they are trying to cut their costs. Also I ordered steamer clams and they were so bitter, I do not know why. I asked to…
Great Crab Chowders by Kitty M via Insider Pages on 1/24/2009
The location is great and very convenient to downtown. The chowder sampler is spectacular. The staff are friendly-- sometimes hilarious-- and very helpful.
hard to find service by jac011 via Citysearch on 4/23/2008
I've been coming to Duke's for the past 3 or so years for business and some late-night music. Don't miss the dowtown/lake location. It is a lot of fun. Some of the best service I have had. The blonde day bartender is great and there is…
Not the best Seattle has to offer! by ghwinter4 via Citysearch on 11/29/2007
The clam chowder was like paste.( I had a great chowder at Pikes Market ).Duke"s was loaded with corn starch to make it too thick. Bleeech! I had the blackened salmon, that wasover cooked and dry. My waiter was nice, but rushed us through…
Outstanding service and exceptionally great food by maggie_o via Citysearch on 6/16/2007
For a memorably good time and exceptional food, ask for "Dillon" at the Green Lake location to be your waiter. As a former chef at Duke's he can recommend the best of the menu and leave you grinning at his comments and friendliness.\r

Wonderful during the Summer OR Winter months! by munny76 via Citysearch on 12/12/2006
The Lake Union location is a favorite of mine. During the Summer it's a must stop kind of place. The patio is great! During the winter it takes on a cozy element and the chowder is just the thing to warm those hard to reach cold spots!!
Tourist Trap -- but the chowder aint bad by dickknows via Citysearch on 9/16/2006
I avoided Duke's for as long as I could -- but then I thought -- maybe those tourists have found a good thing! Sadly, they have not. The chowder sampler is a good choice -- but the steak was so tough and chewy -- it was like gnawing on a…
Sub par food by 8food via Citysearch on 7/6/2006
It's not that good. Great atmosphere, but the food wasn't good, or even par. I had a seafood pasta that was rather bland, and only had three clams - two of which were open. My friend had fish-n'-chips which were over cooked and dry. …
Duke's Lake Union has great location on the lake by Tim A. via Judy's Book on 4/25/2006
Duke's on Lake Union is probably one of the best-kept secrets on the Lake and in South Lake Union. The food is good, the service is usually pretty good, and when it's nice out, it's very difficult to beat the outside patio. When the wind…
Super yummy chowder! by Megan B via Insider Pages on 2/3/2006
This is a great place to go for lunch! They have great food - including salads. The staff is friendly too. Whenever I'm in downtown, I like to stop here for lunch. Their prices are average for downtown, but the food is worth it. They…
Great View and Great Food by Desiree H via Insider Pages on 5/24/2005
The service is pleasent, with great view of Lake Union. Unfortunately, due to the location the prices are a bit higher than the West Seattle and Greenlake locations. The sizes suffer a bit as well, but the chowder is excellent.
Excellent food, server = tyrant by seattlechk via Citysearch on 4/23/2005
Duke's has great food at awesome prices, and the chowder is out of this world. We typically go to the Greenlake location, but visited the Lake Union restaurant once. It will be the last time. The server we had was domineering,…
Yummy fish and chips. by Beth C via Insider Pages on 4/7/2005
I friend was to take me out for lunch and mentioned Duke's. I have never even heard of it. We got a table immediately and it was packed (even in the lunch hour). I ordered fish and chips and expected the norm. It was so tasty that I…
A Fan Suggestion by bigjerfour via Citysearch on 5/1/2004
I have been, and will continue to be, a big fan. However, I don't understand the recent upward menu price adjustments, e,g; NY steak now $30---was in low $20s in a few months ago---kid's 1 pc. fish & chips $4.50---adult's 2 pc (the same…
World's Best Clam Chowder by chall3809 via Citysearch on 11/30/2003
Have to say, I've seen other claims by many restaurants that "their's" was the best - Duke's was by far the BEST I've ever had anywhere!
The Northwest's Best! by merlinfrank via Citysearch on 11/3/2003
For the money, for the view, and especially for the food, you can't beat a meal at Duke's on Lake Union. I joined their email club and was sent a free dinner email back right away, used it the following weekend on the best Salmon of my…
Favorite Secret Hangout by nwffan via Citysearch on 2/22/2003
I've been to Dukes several times over the last few years and it is obvious to me they are doing something right and it is still a secret to most Seattlites. I enjoy their steamers on happy hour, and their salads are some of the best. The…
Best place on Lake Union by gobigcougs via Citysearch on 1/31/2003
I love Duke's! The staff is definetly the friendliest that I have ever been served by, the cocktails are excellent.The manager Rob (I believe that was his name) made me a "Cucumber Mojito",it was easily the best cocktail I have ever had,…
Great Lunch at Dukes by dmahanw via Citysearch on 12/19/2002
I have been to Duke's for lunch twice in the last month. The service & the food have been flawless. The food has been excellent, the chowder and fish nicely prepared & flavored. The waiter couldn't be better if he tried. The prices are…
