I had the extreme pleasure of randomly walking into Dukes during my brief stay in Rotorua. I had the best burger I've ever eaten in my life (so far)! No, really! Absolutely fantastic angus burger! The fries were also really good :) Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

It was pretty poor really. And I feel bad saying that because I really liked the hotel. All of the food tasted like it had been frozen a long time. We had the seared tuna and it tasted tough, both ends were cooked through. We brought that to the waiter's attention and he just looked at us blankly and asked of we'd like him to do something about it? All the rest of the food was tasteless and pretty poor really. I heard the burger was good, but it's not on the dinner menu. Then when we ordered a glass of wine I had to teach one of the bartenders how to use a corkscrew. Honestly... She said she had no idea how to open it, and could I help her. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5

We dined here on Monday night and got the Caesar salads (both types). They were well made salads with a slight twist (croquettes and mushroom balls). There is a fireplace inside the dining area which would be nice in cooler months. Service was also good. Would give this 4.5 star.

We've really enjoyed the dinner menu here. Meats are cooked perfectly and very tasty (though, for someone who loves eating more vegetables and salads, you may want to order another side dish / dish)

We came here the other day while staying at the Prince's Gates hotel. We had the early bird three course menu. The entree was kumara soup and the camembert wedges. The kumara soup is quite yum, pairs well with the bread and the portion was generous. Compare to the soup, the wedges was just ok. I think it is lacking some component, maybe needing a salad with it. It doesn't make sense how much you get with the soup option and the cheese wedge option being only 4 cubes of it. The mains we had was the rib eye steak and the chicken. Both options was the highlight of the meal, very well cooked, every components of the dish was excellent. Love the mash potato, roasted veges together. For dessert we had the caramelised custard and the brownie. The custard was too well-done, as it actually gone past the creaminess and become eggy. The orange citrus taste was not bad, the shortbread was just average and could be better. The brownie was good, but could be better pair with a lighter flavour ice cream like vanilla as chocolate kind of overlaps and becomes flavour fatigue after a strong flavoured meal. All in all, the early bird three course meal was still very enjoyable and will highly recommend it to others.

One of the best places to dine in Rotorua. We had our dinner here the first night arriving to Rotorua and it was such a wonderful experience ! The staff was very nice, polite and professional. He greeted us with the warmest and most welcoming attitude. The food was excellent, everything was delicious and well displayed. Restaurant layouts and ambiance is super elegant and fabulous. I have nothing to complain and I am highly recommended this place. Our trip to Rotorua wouldn’t be that great without Duck’s Bar & Restaurant. A huge thanks to the owner, the manager, the chefs and the staffs in here, please carry on with the hard work and we will definitely come back here in the future :)

Another visit and almost the same quality as the last time. I didn't expect to see the rugby game on the TV as the restaurant does not have a pub atmosphere. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $40–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
