Duke's Bar & Restaurant

Absolutely blown away by everything to do with this establishment. The decor and timeless elegance of the actual building is amazing. We were looked after by Rudi who is an absolute gem, he was so lovely. The food, OMG the food! I wish we had more time to come back for another meal, the flavors and presentation were 5 class, absolute treat. Any one, any age, would enjoy this place, highly recommend.

Delicious food in a classic setting!

We had a lovely dinner at Duke's Bar and Restaurant. The staff were very friendly and efficient, it was great service. The food was very delicious.

Amazing food. The Three-way salmon is delicious. I had the Lamp shank which was out of this world. Best place in a long time.

Excellent food & service. We will certainly go again

Wonderful dining experience on every level!

We enjoyed it

A lovely little restaurant with beautiful decor. It was so pleasing to see an indigenous (Māori) inspired menu utilising traditional foods. Overall an excellent experience. Ngā mihi

Excellent meal. The food was beautifully cooked and presented. A great variety to choose from on the menu.. The service was also top class. Happy to recommend this restaurant.

The service and food were great. We will recommend any one to dine at Dukes Restaurant

Excellent service and dining environment.
very creative food.

such a lovely place with attentive staff and great food. First table made it affordable for us and we are very grateful!!

The whole experience at the Duke's was fabulous. We were a party of 4 and tried multiple dishes. All of them were so nicely presented and tasted divine. The staff was excellent. There was a small issue with an unlisted ingredient on a plate I was allergic to and the staff sorted it out promptly and were very understanding. Will definitely dine there again. Loved, loved, loved it!

The overall dining experience was lovely. The size of the eel mousse was a bit small but quality was superb. The desserts were a little underwhelming but the mains were very good. The service was prompt and polite but our main waiter was a little awkward.

Overall a pleasant meal but nothing special

Great service, good food and a lovely old hotel setting.We would definately return.

Great food, lovely authentic hotel and fab service

It was raining outside but the welcome was warm at Dukes. Great food, friendly staff and the discount to boot !

Again another great time cannot fault the place . This was our second visit and were not disappointed

The three course meal was delicious and extremely filling.

Best meal the family has had for ages, amazing ingredients and all cooked perfectly

The overall dining experience from start to finish couldn't be faulted. We have dined here before and have never been disappointed. The food is tasty, well presented and proportions are generous. The service was impeccable. The staff were professional, well presented, friendly and attentative. Would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for a classy and sophisticated restaurant to dine.

Great food and good Service will definitely be back :-)

Our second time here and not disappointed. Service was friendly, discrete and attentive. We had scallops entree, chicken, fish of the day and salmon mains and the custard dessert. Every dish was perfect. The dining room has character and atmosphere. Highly recommend Dukes.

Food was yummy and service was good! Shame it was so hot inside and they didn’t have any fans or aircon so when they opened the door the smell of smoke came in.

The restaurant was beautiful, and offered choice of seating. Staff were attentive and the food was very well presented. The meal had lovely flavours.

Beautiful food and wonderful friendly service

Amazing, incredible and worth every $$$. Paired this deal up alongside staying at the Princes Gate Hotel. Service was prompt and every staff member we encountered was happy and engaged in making our stay the best. I completely understand how they did incredibly well at Beef and Lamb NZ awards. It takes a lot to impress me-especially with NZ cuisine but I was blown out of the water. I will be back for sure❤️♥️

Food & service were excellent! Very friendly & happy staff. Enjoyed the steak. Recommend.

We had a wonderful experience at Dukes. The setting is beautiful, elegant, classy. The dining tables are well spaced out, not cramped and not noisy. We both enjoyed our meals, especially the chicken. Disappointed that there was only one vegetarian option. Good range of wines at reasonable price. Service was excellent. we will return.

Excellent service, nice meals.

The food and service was amazing.
Totally recommend high 5 all round.

We had cocktails, entrée, and mains. The food was very delicious. Great service from the waiters, Rudi was great. Took a bit too long for our cocktails to arrive, hence the not the full 5 stars. Lovely setting, sets the scene for fine dining!
