    We’ve been to every other Duke’s aside from this one & now the chapter is complete. It did not disappoint! Hadn’t had brunch there before and I have to say, the pulled pork breakfast sandwich was really good. Tried a coconut beer which was surprisingly good. The manager (Becky - if I recall correctly) was really wonderful and sent over a Hula pie to commemorate our visit. One of the best desserts on our trip & most certainly will be a new tradition. Great views, good food, good service…always a family fave!

    Not sure why we waited so long to come here. By far, the best restaurant in Orange County. Everything was amazing. We had the dumplings, shaky beef, garlic noodles and bone marrow. Every dish was super delicious, including the desserts. Amazing cocktails, too!
