No body cooks better than Dukes. Everything is so good. All the salmon dinners are the best. Caesar salad dressing on the side. Steamers or avacobo for appetizer. Great wine selection and marionberry pie desert. Now thats a dinner.

A charming, wonderful place to pass a meal - props to the warm and historic setting. Friendly service, however quite a wait for dinners and no communication during the wait. I'd like to see Elkins provide a small complimentary loaf of warm bread to tide you over during the long wait. It's a small, inexpensive gesture to diners. However wonderful, flavorful pepper steak with their amazing signature peppercorn sauce. Accompanying asparagus was fresh and perfectly cooked, and the mashed potatoes were abundant and tasty. We shared a huckleberry crisp dessert. Highly recommended! This is a memorable place with wonderful food where you can make many nice memories.

We have been coming to the Grill for a couple years. The thanksgiving lunch special is good. This year the pies were not part of the special. We were charged $9 per pie slice. The slices were very, very small. Disappointed in that for sure!

We recently visited the Copper & Salt Northwest Kitchen on a weekday evening for a special occasion. The environment is very nice with a great view of the Sound! But during our visit a table was occupied by a single individual wearing headphones and working on a computer. Meanwhile our “special seating” was away from the window, and in part looking over the lone person working at a table for four. The staff was friendly and helpful, except for the bartender. She ignored me, then acknowledged me when I took another place on the other end of the bar, told me she’d be right back, and then ignored me long enough that I walked away and wasn’t served. Our dinner began with the House Whipped Ricotta, which was excellent! But beyond that, the meal we had wasn’t exceptional. We enjoyed our halibut and seafood buccatini, which were well prepared, but for this price, this review should reflect a much better experience. The Copper & Salt is a very good restaurant, but we’ll continue to look for a place for our special celebrations.

The menu is inventive and exciting, and even the classic dishes we tried had little creative twists that would bring us back in a heartbeat. We had the Italian-style wagyu burger and the BCS lamb, which were both excellent. The show-stopper, though, was the lobster ravioli, which was MUCH more lobster than ravioli and featured Korean spices, kimchi spiced greens and kelp oil. We were so impressed with this dish that we had to ask specifically about the ingredients. Sometimes restaurants try to make ordinary food sound extraordinary by using fancy words to describe it, but this menu felt like the opposite. This was an east-meets-west mashup of fascinating ingredients and extraordinary techniques that was presented without fuss or pretension. Some of the prices were on the high side, but for the quality of the food and the inventiveness of its preparation, we found it completely worthwhile.
