              My wife and I had a fantastic brunch today. The Prime Rib and Eggs Benedict were my favorites. Multiple choices for any taste….salads, shrimp, macadamia nut pancakes, bacon, sausage, rice, potatoes and multiple pastries.

              The Sunday brunch ($50/person) food was really so so. The prime rib was quite plain and not flavorful. Couldn’t sit outside to enjoy the ocean view due to strong winds. Live music was decent.

              We ordered the teriyaki sirloin and coconut shrimp special plate. It was served with mashed potatoes. The potatoes were cooler than room temperature. The steak had good taste, but mine was very tough and fatty.

              Always an island favorite! We dined on a Thursday night. It was busy, as usual. It took a VERY long time to get our entrees. Our waiter was very nice, but offered no explanation. A little disappointed.

              My husband and I have both eaten at Dukes many times and have enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. We both had the prime rib last night and it was extremely fatty and tough. Very disappointing.
