    1 Lb Wings- buffalo & bbq
    Erica C.

    Had an eye on this place for awhile and happy when we realized we were in the area. Stopped by for an early dinner while the game was playing. It's a great open space that does dancing on Tuesday nights. So cool! We had the steak nachos, which was a generous portion. Buffalo/bbq wings & a cheeseburger with fries. The food was spot on and hit the spot. Our waitress was friendly and the one who shared with me about their dancing class on Tuesday nights. We definitely wanna come back and try the rest of the menu. Has a parking lot too

    Pretty slow for a Friday night. Friendly staff and very clean establishment. There was someone playing guitar and singing, he was wonderful. The food was ok, everything could have been a little hotter. We tried mozzarella sticking and the cheese wasn't very melted. I ordered the birria tacos. I was expecting the tacos to be made and fried as that's how I've always had them with a side of the juice to dip it in, but it was served in a bowl to make your own tacos. So it got kind of messy. We might go back to the bar for drinks but not sure we'd go back for dinner.

    Baja shrimp tacos

    I came here on a Saturday afternoon and got sat right away, there's lots of seating available! I got the Baja shrimp tacos which came with a side of rice and beans. Taco's were pretty good, loved the mango salsa on top but the tortilla had been heated a bit too much so it was hard around the edges. Rice and beans were tasty! My husband got the Birria omelette which was fun to try, meat was really good. Service was really good and they checked in on us a lot. The food took a pretty long while to come out in my opinion. Inside was casual and had a large bar in the back.

    Steak Fajitas

    Interesting menu with a mixture between American and Mexican food. Service was very friendly and the restaurant was large. Looking at some advertising on the walls, it appears they host karaoke and Latin nights. Food was OK. Think the steak needed a bit more spice (not spicy) to give it something more. Curious on how their breakfast is.

    Fish Tacos

    We came here in a whim because we happened to be in the area. It was a Friday night around 5/5:30pm. We were there only people there, maybe the rain kept people away. Large space with a dedicated bar area. Staff was very friendly and we got our food fast. I had the mango chamoy margarita and the fish tacos. The tortillas were a little hard out the outside, but still yummy. They were larger tacos, so only two came with the entree. I also got rice and beans, which my daughter loved.

    Chicken fried steak
    Katherine C.

    The breakfast is done well. The home fries were the best-piping hot and enough salt. The jalapeno Benedict was too bland. No spice from chorizo or jalapenos. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly but to the cool side. The chicken fried steak was on point. The tres leches pancake was tasty!!!

    Where we were- corner of 256th and Kent Kangley.

    Wide open bar/restaurant that has it all. Many tv screens, nice atmosphere, quiet and a great menu. Open for breakfast but not crowded at all, despite some amazingly good food at awesome prices. Our server was friendly and saw to our needs. We both ordered the Mountain Breakfast- cubed russets, two thick bacon, two awesome sausage patties, two eggs your way, and choice of waffle, pancakes or French toast. I got the pancakes which were amazing while Jeri got the French toast with a gourmet bread that was thick and flavorful. All this for $18! The coffee was also great. Can't wait to try the lunch and dinner menu.

    Quesadilla

    My only regret is not checking this place out sooner, It's tucked away off the intersection 104th and 256th. It is super clean, large & airy. The service was excellent and the food was so good we cannot wait to go back and try some other dishes. We only wish their quesadillas had a bit more flavor but the pico they serve with is had plenty to add to them.

    MEXICAN AMERICAN FUSION. It's a family restaurant and a sports bar. My wife and I were there at lunch time on a Saturday and there was hardly anyone there. The place is HIGE. The dining area is at least 80 x 80 feet according to my eyeball calculations and the ceiling is as high as a supermarket or a warehouse. Many TVs tunes to sports games, and a full bar at one end. So it definitely had a sports bar viibe. The waitress was especially friendly and bubbly. Very attentive and the service was excellent. My wife had the fajitas. She really enjoyed them and also remarked that the tortillas were warm and delicious. I had the traditional eggs Benedict. The waitress suggested I get one egg with hollandaise sauce and the other with their home cheese sauce. The cheese sauce was very rich but good. I'm pretty sure this was a queso cheese. The portions are large. We had to take a to-go bow for the fajitas. Many of the dishes on the menu are Mexican or American. My wife and I felt the place was a little too big. It made me feel like I was eating in a warehouse The food was good and I also had a very good Bloody Mary. The price was also very reasonable considering the extra large portions. So, although I will probably not be back, I will award four stars. Good food, good prices. Poor atmosphere. Cheers.

    Nachos
    Jackie T.

    Came in on a Sunday around 11ish. The vibe is moody (dark) and industrial - open floor plan (great for large parties) and low lighting. Lots of space between tables, you won't feel like you can hear other tables conversation. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and sat wherever we wanted to. The bar is in the back corner of the restaurant. It looks like from the decor, that the owner maybe a Veteran (which we love since my husband and I are both vets ourselves and love to support). We ordered Nachos, Breakfast Burrito, Chicken and Waffle, Cajeta pancakes and chilaquiles rojos. Service was great. We got our food in a timely manner. My husband loved his burrito, my daughter enjoyed her huge nachos and my son enjoyed his chicken and waffle. He did say that the tenders were crispy and juicy. The sweet and spicy sauce that it came with complemented the tenders very well, my husband said the sauce tasted even better on his burrito. As for my chilaquiles and cajeta pancakes. These were great. I'm very particular about my chilaquiles, I love when there's texture in my food. Everything else on the plate is soft--the eggs, the beans, the avocado--so that crispy crunch from the chilaquiles gives me the contrast I'm craving. I was disappointed in the level of heat of my chilaquiles rojos. I felt that my chilaquiles rojos was catered to the PNW palate. Since chilaquiles is a traditional Mexican dish, I expected it to have the level of spiciness Mexican food is known for. Unfortunately, mine didn't quite deliver on that. I love my food with a kick and that's what I expected from a Mexican dish. On to the Cajeta Pancakes , I absolutely loved my pancakes. These were so delicious that I wish I ordered more of the caramel on the side. I obviously did not finish my meal and ended up packing it to go, but I'm regretting not asking for more caramel (or whatever sauce it is). Price for all what we ordered came to $93. Overall this was a great brunch place and would definitely go back for their lunch and dinner.

    Chilaquiles Verde
    Jill E.

    We love going out for breakfast so any place that is open at the hour needs to be tried. This is a really large place and we asked the server if they were busier in the evening since we were only one of two booths occupied. He said yes, they have karaoke on some nights and it gets very crowded. Lots of things that have a Mexican flavor which is sort of fun. Nice extensive menu for both breakfast and dinner/lunch. My husband had biscuits and gravy which he said tasted good but not enough sausage. Came with both eggs and potatoes so plenty. I had Chilaquilies Verde which were totally delicious. A large pile of fresh corn chips with a yummy green chile sauce and eggs on top. There was also a side of refried beans. The spice level was perfect for breakfast and I brought home a bunch of chips to heat up and have later. I did have a choice of red or green sauce. we will for sure go back and try lunch.

    The restaurant was clean and very well maintained. Erendida was our waitress and she was so warm and welcoming to us! She was engaging and always had our drinks replenished. We ordered the carnitas plate and was absolutely delicious!!!! I ordered a CALIFORNIA BURRITO and was super excited that it was made perfectly which made it taste just like they make'em in SD What's in a California Burrito??? *** Carne Asada, shredded cheese, Guacamole and French Fries ***

These are the best cheese curds ever bc the batter isn't heavy like other cheese curds I've had. It's tempura battered so it's light and you can taste the cheese more. The jalapeño strawberry dip and ranch are good dips, but try them together and it will blow your mind. The fried green beans were okay. They did have a heavier batter on them and I wish they had the same batter the cheese curds had. The spicy dip was good! The rosemary popcorn was delicious! It had just enough butter and the perfect amount of rosemary where it's not overpowering. Once you get to the bottom, there's tons of butter and you just dip and soak it up with the popcorn.

We stopped in for dinner before a concert at Kenyon Hall, and from the moment we walked in, we were greeted and seated promptly. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and happily answered all of our questions. The only thing they didn't have was an espresso martini. No big deal! Honestly, one of my favorite parts of dining out is listening to my wife explain how to make one while watching the puzzled expressions on the waitstaff or bartender's faces. It always provides a little entertainment before dinner. My wife ordered the lettuce-wrapped Smash Burger. It was good and flavorful, though not quite in the same league as a Five Guys' version, which is easier to hold in your hand, the only reason for a 4 instead of 5-star review. I went with the Classic Burger with cheese and fries, and it hit the spot. The burger featured a nicely toasted bun with a buttery, crispy crunch, and the toppings were perfectly balanced for my taste. The real star of the meal, however, was the fries. They were fantastic--crispy, hot, and absolutely worth the extra dollar for their "Bridge Sauce," a seasoned fry sauce that paired perfectly with them. The restaurant and restrooms were both clean and well-maintained, something we always appreciate. Throughout our meal, the staff checked on us just the right amount, making sure our water glasses stayed full and that we had everything we needed without being intrusive. Overall, The Bridge delivered a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere, solid burgers, and excellent service. The next time we're in West Seattle, we'll definitely be returning.

Our incredible server Trey soon came over and helped us decide on some drinks, as we were debating between a few. The menu has so many options, it was hard to just choose one! We soon put our appetizer orders in, as well as our entrees. The calamari tasted fresh and crispy, what's not to like? The oysters I was recommended, tasted sooo fresh! The smoked salmon deviled egg was something I've never thought would work, but it tasted amazing. You can never go wrong with fish and chips, which tasted great! Our server was so sweet and was very attentive throughout the whole night. Dessert time came around and Trey recommended this Washington berry pie, we were sold! It came out deliciously warm with some ice cream on top, which was the cherry on top for our night!! Can't say enough great things about this restaurant, great staff, solid menu, we will definitely be back!!

    Have to admit at being disappointed in my latest experience at Dukes…read more It was about three weeks ago, the last Sunday in May. Went with my husband and met some family for lunch. We got there first, as the rest of the family went to the wrong location. So my husband and I were just there drinking water and waiting for them for a while. -I asked our waiter to please. "keep the water coming". Anyway, everyone finally arrived and we got things ordered. The food arrived in a timely way. Unfortunately, I have to report that their prices have gone quite high. I know most restaurants have had to raise their prices, but considering the food, both my husband, and myself felt that their prices were prohibitive, and with that in mind, we probably will not be back for quite a while. My hubbs had their lobster mac & cheese, which he gave a 7 out of 10. I had their lobster roll, which frankly, I could only give a 5 out of 10. It wasn't very flavorful, and definitely needed the dipping sauces that were served with it. Rather awkwardly put together as well, which made it kind of messy. Just kind of hard to eat. I did really enjoy their sweet potato fries though. Everyone else had various seafood dishes, which looked good, and one had a burger, which looked absolutely delicious. (I was kind of jealous once I saw it.) The service was good to begin with, but we had to flag down the waiter for water more than once. And towards the end of the meal, I was having some of that dipping sauce with the last of my sandwich; it was on the spicy side and I was out of water. Tried several times to get the waiter's attention, but it didn't work, and I had to literally yell at him to bring me some water. It was a little embarrassing, but I really needed it, & I was getting kind of mad! I mean, after all, I had made a point early on of asking him to refill the water. So that really kind of pissed me off. Because neither myself nor my husband had ordered any other beverage, & we really needed that water something fierce!! So obviously, I have mixed feelings on Dukes at this point. If money is no object, I'd say sure, go here and enjoy something tasty. But make sure you order some beverages so you don't have to count on the waiters for water!!!

I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.
