Wow. I rarely leave negative reviews; I try to lead with generosity. But I was genuinely surprised…read moreby the level of service we received - especially because my extended family, who live here in town and joined us, told us how much better things had become after the renovation. Things started off normally. We were seated promptly, although our server, one of the bartenders, seemed largely uninterested from the beginning. When she came back to take our order, she forgot to take mine and my daughter's, but added them at the end. Mistakes happen, so we didn't think much of it. What happened next was where the experience really went downhill. We ordered two appetizers and six entrées. Somehow, my salad and my daughter's cheeseburger arrived well before anyone else's food - and before either appetizer had even come out. The food runner, who turned out to be the most attentive, also failed to bring silverware. After waiting about 10 minutes without seeing our server, I finally had to walk to the bar to ask for utensils. Instead of simply helping, one of the other bartenders gave me a hard time for asking. When our server finally brought silverware, she sarcastically said, "I guess I'll have to fire the person who brought your food over." She then walked back behind the bar and joked about the situation with the other staff. Several members of my family overheard the comments as well. Being mocked after an obvious service failure was far more frustrating than the mistake itself. To be honest, as the only person of color in our party (the rest of my family is white), the way I was treated left me wondering whether unconscious bias may have played a role. I can't say that for certain, but it's an unfortunate feeling to leave a restaurant with, especially because I looked different from 99.9% of the rest of the clientele. Meanwhile, the rest of our party waited another 25 minutes before receiving their meals. Both appetizers and all of the entrées arrived at the same time, and my father-in-law's chicken sandwich came out prepared almost the exact opposite of how he ordered it. The only bright spot was one food runner who genuinely seemed to recognize that things had gone wrong and tried to help. Unfortunately, that professionalism was not shared by either bartender - one of whom was also our original server. One final note: the music was so loud that holding a normal conversation at the table was difficult. Overall, this was a disappointing experience from start to finish. Everyone can make mistakes, but how a restaurant responds to those mistakes says everything. In this case, the dismissive attitude and lack of professionalism were far more memorable than the food.

I haven't been here in a while, so I was glad we decided to have lunch here. There has always been…read morejust one lady here.... holding down the entire bar and all the tables at lunch time (when we've stopped in for lunch before). It was nice to see two very friendly and super attentive servers for what turned out to be a pretty busy lunch. We were seated and then drinks delivered, order taken, food brought over, water refilled, and being checked on regularly. My hamburger was excellent and my friend's steak salad was declared delicious as always...the steak being perfectly med rare. My only complaint was that I asked for no mustard and it came with mustard.....I had no allergies so I did my best to wipe it off. I am glad to say Duskees is as good as ever.

If you want wonderful food, service and a great sports vibe, Duskee's in Phoenix, NY is the place…read moreto go!!! Nick and Chanel have created a sports Mecca with great beer selections, incredible food and a crowd that loves the Syracuse Orange! Emma and Kelsey were incredible servers, checking in with us constantly and refilling our beers. The food was hot and delicious! Ordering extra crispy medium wings was a great call! They were great with French fries with gravy to dip in. Paired with our favorite beers, it was an SU game meal to remember! Great job, Duskee's! We normally hit Chubbys up for wings but these were on par and on point for a couple of hungry guys on a cold Saturday afternoon!
