4 of us went there sat may 16th at 6:45. got there 20 min early but they said we have to wait until 6:45. the place was almost empty. we ordered 3 different entrees ( 1 scallop, 1 blackened salmon and 1 6oz filet. the only one that was decent at all was the steak. the escargot was very very salty, the scallops were fishy and salty and the salmon had to be returned as it was almost not edible. they brought it back, still raw and fishy and salty. they were nice enough to take it off the bill. we were very disappointed. wont be going back. read more

I am very disappointed with Duke's Steakhouse today. We had dinner here twice in July and had an excellent experience - the food and service were great, and the ambience was spectacular. We decided to try their happy hour today in the steakhouse bar. First thing that went wrong was we ordered our appetizers and waited for at least 30 minutes and still no food, while the other customers who ordered after us already got their food. When the appetizers finally arrived, the escargots were awful. Escargots are usually served in thick garlic butter sauce, and we had that in July. What we got today was served in what looked like runny non butter liquid (looked like dish water) with no flavor at all. We asked to see the manager and explained the lack of taste. The manager was gracious enough to take it back and ordered us a new one, which came out only slightly better, albeit still runny. (They took the price off the final bill, but I'd rather have great tasting escargots because I love them!!) W also ordered drinks, shrimp cocktail, salad, soup, pork chop, and salmon entrees. AlAll food tasted meh! I think the best part of the meal was the bread. Sad! I'm not sure if the chef had an off day, or if it's because happy hour menus are half off therefore the quality correlates with how much one pays (you get what you pay for??) Hopefully not! Maybe quality went downhills since we last visited in July? Anyway, we will not be going back for a while. read more

We had a fantastic time eating at Duke's! We went in for Sunday Happy hour and ended up staying for dinner. The service was fabulous, as always. I've been to Duke's several times for happy hour and I always have a great time. The food here is really good. My favorite is the lobster bisque - big chunks of lobster with a puff pastry on top. The lamb chops were also cooked perfectly. Love the dining room and bar area. I will definitely keep coming back. read more

Well, We were expecting a fantastic dinner service, There were a lot of us, we had a room to ourselves and settled in. It was our neighbors 70th Birthday and my hubby's 69th Birthday. We ordered Cocktails, we waited and waited, and waited some more. Drinks were served and 1 came back wrong, but that was remedied. Not much staff for all of us, needed help. Then we waited longer for more drinks, a few of the guys went to the Bar themselves twice for Beers. We had 3 little ones at the table and for how long the food was taking , they were being really good. Dinner took forever to arrive. For a Steakhouse, you would expect a Fantastic job on the steaks. I ordered a 6 oz Filet Mignon and a baked potato, Medium Rare, mine was cooked great, My friend ordered Filet Mignon Medium Rare, hers was over cooked, Birthday Boy ordered well done , His was medium, so they switched steaks. Birthday boy my hubby, ordered The Elk, his was overcooked. I didn't hear anyone else say anything. Server worked his butt off and was very attentive. Manager, I think she was, was very nice and dressed to perfection, and came in a few times. The boys got some birthday cake and we had another drink, and left about 8 pm or so. Oh, I had the Lobster Bisque and it was the best I have ever had. Yum. Real chunks of lobster in it. Not so sure we would go back there again. A Steakhouse should get steaks cooked to perfection, we asked for Salt too, Steaks should be perfectly seasoned. It was a little bummer. It was a beautiful Restaurant. read more

Ok just WOW! We came back to Dukes and had some spectacular food here! This time we tried other things than the awsome steaks from last time. I had a bone in veal- i had never ever heard of that before! It was the best veal I have ever eaten, hands down, no question! The John Dory fish with the lobster burre blanc was seasoned and cooked to perfection!! The Buffalo New York strip was another first for me! It was just spectacular. Really lean, but tasty! The elk was awsome as well! Really flavorful. The service was great! The barbis awsome, I really loved the smoked manhatten. The only complaint I had was they were out of chocolate deserts, but the more than remedies that with the home made chocolate truffles they bring for the table, YUM! read more

Wow, this Duke's Steakhouse is way better than the Duke's location in Carson City! Here, they still have the happy hour offered with half off discounted appetizers! I'm not sure the full price is worth it, but the half off price sure is. About $9.00 per appetizer on average. We got the mini Beef Wellingtons and the seared ahi as well as the oysters Rockefeller. You get 6 for $10. All the food was very tasty and cooked properly. Service was just fine. I just happen to be up in this area, cause I probably wouldn't drive the 40 miles from Carson just to have the happy hour, but it's great if you live around here. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Duke's Steakhouse! They've really blown it out of the water with everything from food and service to atmosphere and ambiance. I came here with my husband for a date night and we were both so impressed by everything. We started with the lobster bisque soup which is the best either of us has ever had. It is a big bowl of creamy soup topped with flaky puff pastry. The soup itself is FULL of so many large lobster pieces that melt in your mouth and the flavors inside of the broth are unbelievable. The lobster bisque is a must if you are here! For our entrees, i ordered the 6 oz filet with garlic mashed potatoes and vegetables. The filet was cooked perfectly just as I ordered it (medium rare) and had such a great amount of flavor throughout every bite. The mashed potatoes were also so good and seasoned really well. The vegetables were fresh and complemented the meal nicely. My filet came with a Demi glaze which was so good too! My husband ordered the rib eye with buttered pasta side and vegetables. His whole meal was cooked to perfection as well and he was very happy with all of it. His steak came with a bernaise sauce as well which wasn't quite as good as the Demi glaze but still flavorful. We ended with the cherries jubilee which was prepared table side and it was SO good. Full of tons of flavor without being too sweet. Though it is inside of Legends Bay Casino, you cannot tell that at all once you're inside. There's a large room you enter initially before the main dining room so don't let the casino deter you at all. Duke's has easily become one of my favorite steakhouses and we will definitely be coming back. read more

Celebrated my wedding anniversary here and I was beyond impressed. From the service and be food, it was all amazing. I love how the restaurant felt private, it doesn't feel like you're in a casino. I ordered the steak Diane and my husband ordered the prime steak. Both were cooked perfectly! We ended our meal with their chocolate cake. Be ready to pay the price but, overall great dinner! read more

There seem to be a fair amount of steakhouses in Reno these days. I certainly wont complain. Duke's sits at the top of the list for classic steakhouses. From the Rat Pack, music and comedy in the background, to the moody ambiance. The service is high level from the Captain to our server. And they were just the right amount of attentive the entire time. The menu options present standard steakhouse fare but the flavor in the food is more than that. Everything is made in house. Everything. And it tastes like it. Our Prime ribeyes were excellently cooked and the oakwood fire comes through at just the right level. If there was any negative to our experience it would be that every appetizer was seafood. A bit disappointing when you are dining with someone that does not eat fish. This place is in a casino but once you are seated you'll never know it. We will definitely return. read more

We decided to try this steakhouse on my birthday since we were looking to try somewhere new. My husband had the Cordon Blu and I had the Seafood pasta. The service was absolutely fantastic! Our server was kind, prompt, and very funny. He was able to suggest different items we might like based on our preferences and checked in with us often. The manager also checked in often. The bread was amazing! I'm a bread lover, so I very much enjoyed it. The food was so-so. I was not wowed by any means. The drinks on the other hand were superb. I order the Paloma and my husband ordered the lemon drop. Both were refreshing and tasty. The restaurant itself seemed small but very elegant. There was also what seemed like a happy hour area that was more casual but still gorgeous. Our favorites by far were the desserts. The key lime cheesecake was divine, but the real stars were the complementary truffles that came with the bill. So rich! read more

The Happy Hour menu is amazing! The selected items are 50% off from 4:00-5:30pm selected days. Check the schedule. The service is fantastic. Jake is the bartender who makes the regular drinks and the specialty cocktails. He served them to our table, as well. Jake is professional, proficient and personable! Certain drinks are 50% off as well during Happy Hour time. The setting is low lighting and romantic. It is very classy and comfortable. The staff is professional, proficient and personable. I definitely have to return to try some other items on the menu, which does change periodically. read more

I have heard amazing things about this restaurant and finally wanted to try it for my best friend's birthday. We went in last Wednesday evening and had a server named Oscar. His two Assistance named Olivia and Caden. The service was exceptional. The decor was exceptional. The food was exceptional. We had an amazing time. We started with several recommendations from Oscar. We had the lobster bisque soup. We shared the cowboy ribeye and a couple of appetizers. Highly recommend this restaurant. read more

I have felt the Reno casino steakhouse scene was getting a bit tired, but Dukes at Legends Bay really made me rethink that notion. We came in for their happy hour menu, and it really impressed us. I really enjoyed my Blue Aviation, which had Italicus in it. The Italicus was very enjoyable and made for an interesting bergamot twist. My wife had the Perfect Pear cocktail, which was also pleasant. We were able to taste some of their appetizers like the Pepper Crusted Ahi and Mini Beef Welington as well as the garlic parmesan fries. All three of these were delicious and definitely worth a try, but the pepper crusted ahi really left a great impression. It was so well seasoned, and the ahi so fresh and tender, truly a cut above. We decided to then conclude our little date night with an order of creme brulee. This was a perfect sweet treat to finish off our meal. I'm really looking forward to coming back again to try their social hour menu. read more

Food was amazing, the staff even more amazing!!! we came here for my boyfriends birthday, and they did not disappoint!

The food and drinks were all great. Service was fantastic and the atmosphere was as well. I'd highly recommend this location!!

Came here on a Tuesday around 7:40 and sat at the bar as we were not in proper attire. Our server was the bartender and he was friendly. We ordered mini beef wellingtons and lobster ravioli for our appetizer which was super delicious along with their soup of the day, which was super creamy, and salad. Mini beef wellingtons came in two little pieces but it was super tasty with the sauce, lobster ravioli came with three raviolis and super saucy and delicious. For our main entree we ordered the chicken cordon bleu and their braised short rib. Since they were closing soon we took our entrees to go. The short rib was tender and super flavorful with the sauce paired with some rice. Chicken cordon bleu was cheesy and flavorful with the ham, with a side of soft creamy pasta. Overall pretty good experience, yummy food, nice staff. read more

Third visit to Duke's and it was even better than before! This time we split the Wedge Salad and the Chateaubriand. OMG .. the beef could have been cut with a spoon. It was so tender and yummy. Sides included sauteed mushrooms and veggies - and we both had the mashed potatoes for our starch. Added an order of asparagus (it's in season!) - so good! Demi-glas and béarnaise on the side -- and another bottle of Tempranillo. Service was top-notch! Todd was our main server with Kevin and Perrini (-5 for spelling - I meant to get that right) helping out - with Carol and Oscar stopping by to say hello - you'd think we were local celebs. ;-) This place is quickly turning into my new fave steakhouse in Reno/Sparks! read more

First time at Dukes last night and it was great! Great drinks, awesome food and the dessert was especially good. The bananas foster is a must have.

Our first time here and it was a good experience. The space is small, intimate and cozy. Service is good and attentive. Cocktails are excellent. Appetizers are very good. I tasted the Caesar salad - it was delicious. My lobster bisque was also delicious but I would have liked more than 2 pieces of lobster in it. My rack of lamb was generous, tender and cooked perfectly. The only disappointment were the desserts. Creme brule, bread pudding, butterscotch mousse all tasted just ok. Overall a good restaurant to try. read more

Soooo delicious!! We were there for an event and could only choose from their appetizers but they did not disappoint!! The beef Wellington was so delicious and full of flavor. One of the best I've ever had. Enough for 2 people to share. The shrimp cocktail was fresh and a good portion size; enough for 4 people to have one or 2 people to have 2. They're the giant shrimp. We also got the Parmesan fries that came out hot and with the perfect crisp to my liking. We sat in the bar which has a nice ambience and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about all of their menus. The manager came around to our table to ensure our satisfaction. My friend got their lemmon drop and ordered 2. It came with a dollop of homemade whip cream on top and I had a yummy J Lohr cab. Can't wait to go back and order an entree! read more

Went to celebrate anniversary... that they didn't acknowledge... and had a mediocre meal (filet mignon and rib eye steak that were both just ehhh) with an inexperienced waiter and a creepy mature d who kept coming by and trying to chit-chat with us.

NYE dinner- called and asked for reservations and did not state they had limitations on menu. I went there for Steak Diane which I couldn't get. I specifically asked if they had it that night. So when I arrived to see a shortened menu I was disappointed. Also, was not notified there was a dress code as my husband was wearing a hat while another was wearing a cowboy hat- I don't see a difference here personally because it different style but it's a hat. Food- Bone in Prime USDA rib. Good. Ordered medium rare and was on point. Needed a little more flavor for myself. Potatoe mash was good. My husband got a special of lobster and filet mignon. With mash and veggies. Service- eh, the person who sat us was a lady who brought it up about. Dress code when the original person who checked us in didn't say a word or mention the hat. It was only mentioned by the person who they passed us off to where we sat in the back corner near the kitchen. There were plenty of tables and not that many people there at 9:30pm. So for us to be forgotten about was odd. Drinks weren't refilled. Overall- food is good, service is eh. Needless to say we won't come back. Atlantis Steakhouse and Western Village steak house is much much better. It wasn't worth the price and inconvenience. read more

The ambiance was very nice. The food was good, not great. The service was very slow, as in we were in there for 2 hours and I only had 2 drinks. I would have ordered several more, but the waitress never came back to ask more than once. It was about 9:30 (30 minutes till closing) I was finished, my wife was still eating. A different girl, not our waitress asked if she could box my food. I requested to wait until my wife was finished. Two minutes later our waitress came by and asked. Again we requested to wait. 5 minutes later another server comes by and just starts cleaning off the table. My wife really wanted to try dessert but was so frustrated that we just left. After paying we walked out at 9:52, so it wasn't like we overstayed past closing. If I'm paying over $350 for a two person dining experience, I expect all aspects to be excellent. This was not a great experience. read more

Went to Duke's for happy hour with friends. We were excited to share a bunch of small plates and enjoy a variety of food. The shrimp cocktail was excellent! The prawns were large and each of us were able to enjoy one for ourselves. The cocktail sauce was flavorful and wasn't too spicy for my mild taste buds. I could have eaten another serving of beef Wellington. It was cooked perfectly! I can see why it's one of their most popular happy hours plates. The seared ahi was delicious and melted in your mouth! The lobster ravioli and escargot were just ok for me. The ravioli tasted great, but it wasn't anything I haven't had before. The escargot was a little chewy for my liking. The Parmesan garlic fries and lobster Bisque were the perfect end to our happy hour tasting. My lemon drop topped off the night! Service was great! They were attentive, kept our waters full and our table cleared. I would recommend checking this place out for happy hour! Good prices, food and service! read more

This was a quaint experience. It was my friend's birthday and he and I attended this restaurant. The inside is like a good sized dining room. Quiet setting, first class all the way, great wait staff. Our waiter was Nathan and he was very attentive. We started with the customary steakhouse bread before dinner. It was quite tasty, I think it was sourdough. Served with butter you can't go wrong. Then were our dinner salads that were very good. We got blue cheese with them and it was excellent . Next we had the bacon and Swiss stuffed balls with marinara sauce. This was a very wow appetizer. I could've just ate 10 of those for dinner. Next we tried the mini Wellington. Being a fan of Chef Ramsey, I had always wanted to try a Wellington. If these mini Wellington's represent the overall Wellington world, I have to say oh my God. These things were so freaking tasty.Perfect puff pastry. I am amazed they can get the meat that tender--kudos For my entrée I had chicken cordon bleu. I know, I know, I'm in the steakhouse. But my friend eats light and he ordered a big steak so I knew I was going to get some. This chicken cordon bleu was among the best I've ever had. The ham was smoked perfectly, the sauce was sublime, I was really floored. Wow factor 10. I also had a baked potato fully loaded. Wow again. Nathan alluded to the fact they rolled them fresh every day and it shows. My friend got the steak and lobster special. He cut me off a big portion of lobster. It was cooked perfectly and in drawn butter...I was in seventh heaven. He also ordered the big porterhouse, medium. That was one really good steak. Wow factors 10 all around. This place is well worth the change you're gonna drop. Bringing the wife soon---perfect impress your date spot. read more

The food is always excellent. It's also nice to have an upscale steakhouse that doesn't have the sides as "extras. The service has always been top notch. The manager is always going around talking to the tables which is a very small intimate area which is nice there's also a bathroom in the restaurant so you don't have to go out into the casino the only part that I did not care for is you cannot wear a hat. Usually a woman can wear a hat and have it be acceptable but here it doesn't matter if your male female fancy hat baseball hat there's no hats at all you can wear hat at the bar and eat there though. read more

This was our first time to Duke's and we were not disappointed. The service was prompt and attentive. The bread that came out first was fantastic with the salted butter. My wife then ordered the filet mignon Oscar style and the steak was cooked a perfect medium as requested. I ordered the mahi-mahi special and it was cooked perfectly with great flavor. The couscous was great as well. And prior to getting our meal we got a salad and the soup of the day which was a spiced tomato which was to die for. My wife got a nice Pinot noir and I got the barrel aged manhattan which was very good. We ended with the baked Alaska which was also very good. Overall a very good experience and we will be back. read more

Enjoyed the wine flights and the atmosphere. The food was as follows: French onion soup: 3.5 stars, good, what I expected in a French onion soup, just not the best I've ever had Prime rib: 4 stars, very good, tender with lots of flavor, but not the best I've ever had. Would order again though Pork chop: 2 stars, was very dry. The baked potato was good though!

The service was impeccable and the food was amazing. The ambiance was comfortable and cozy.

Arrived a few minutes early we chose to sit in the bar area. Our table wasn't ready. They seat us at 730, we had 7pm reservations. Ok fine, We ordered after bread and on our third round of drinks but is now 830 and we are still waiting... What's going on back there? It's been 2 full hours since our reservation. This place is dropping the ball so hard. A full 2 hours before we rescieved our food? 9pm on the dot we finally got our food. The entire place was cleared out only 3 tables still waiting?? I Had the 10 oz fillet. Came with a choice of soup or salad. Went with the soup. It was a cream of mushroom but unfortunately it tasted like the can cream of mushroom. Not for me. My steak was over cooked and dry. I was really hoping they would redeem themselves with the food but that was not the case. Son had the persuvious table side fettuccini with prawns. It was just ok.... it's all pizzaz made table side but didnt deliver on flavor. The hubs had the elk special. This was the only dish that was well done! Cooked rare and tasted good. They are too slow.. no one should wait 2 hours for food? Especially for the price. They could tell I was visibly upset and just avoided our table. I could not in Good conscience give this place a good rating. This was the worst experience I've had in Reno. I was so excited to try this too! I hope everyone has a better experience then me and my family. Also there is only one bathroom that men and women share.. with only one toilet. so both times I tried to use it and it was busy. read more

I'm torn. I could go between 3-4 stars. Loved the ambiance: Dark and rich interior, piped in violin and piano music of modern classics, low lighting, private club feel. Pricing was comparable with other steakhouses. Not impressed with basic presentation of our meal. Entrees came with soup or salad, veggie, potato or rice. Our salads appeared to have boxed limp greens thrown on a plate with some croutons and colorless tomatoes. The side veggies tonight were steamed cauliflower and a small carrot which were undercooked and had little seasoning and were not visually pleasing. Their smallest filet mignon is 6 oz vs western village's 8 oz and the price tag was $2 less for the 2 oz difference. Our server was pleasant. There were other plentiful helpers, bussers, who appeared to be very young and inexperienced. They were not personable and were quick to remove plates and other items prior to the appropriate time. The pace could be construed as uncomfortably quick. The hostess was not warm. Our beef, the 6oz filet mignon and the 22 oz bone in ribs eye (both prime) were cooked just right and tasty. We didn't order dessert but I could see a decadent dark chocolate cake and butterscotch pudding being wheeled by on the dessert and digestifs cart. I'm not sure I will return. It might be worth another try. read more

Had a great time at this Steakhouse located in Sparks in the Legends Bay Casino. We had some fun drink specials which began our meal perfectly. Lush interior with lots of velvety reds and black accents . Felt very modern day mafia. The bread basket was divine with a good carb selection and perfectly salted butter and the service was on point as one would expect at a Steakhouse. My friend had the Rib eye with truffle mash. and she loved it, I had the Chilean Sea-bass in a mushroom Chardonnay sauce which I also really liked. It was rich and cooked perfectly. For a casino it was nice that the "facilities" were accessible from within the restaurant. Would definitely consider it when looking for a steakhouse. Would like to attend one of their wine pairings. read more
