Okay so you see some characters in here, it's seat your self, very crowded, not that kid friendly due to space issues and its not an attractive place at all. However, the food is very good! It's a southern Buffet with all the fixings. Everything we tried was awesome!!! It's pretty much and eat and get out type of place... more

Wasted an hour of precious time trying to find it then discovered they were closed. It is true; they moved and are not at the address on Tripadvisor. They are now in the mall behind the Goodwill store – I don’t know the street. They are only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. more

I was first introduced to Dukes BBQ in December of 2007 and have made it a tradition on my to and from Hilton Head Island. I must say it is the best BBQ ever! If you get a chance to stop by you will not be disappointed! more

This has been a family favorite since we moved here almost 20 years. The food is Southern BBQ abd served buffet style. It is great! The atmosphere extremely casual and the best part is it is run by a wonderful and very hardworking local family. more

Duke's is no longer on Trask (Rt. 21). They moved to a strip mall on the road that goes between McDonald's and Big Lots (sorry I don't remember the route number), turn left just over the railroad tracks. They are ONLY open on Friday and Saturday. We went by on Sunday! more

I have sailed the 7 seas, circumnavigated the globe, and never tasted BBQ any better than this.! If you want to know what they mean when they say "Down Home" head on over to Dukes, you wont regret it. more

I saw a review of Duke's BBQ that said one thing, "Terrible". This has to be someone's idea of a bad joke as there was no explanation at all. My wife and I ate at Duke's for the first time this May. Being from New Hampshire we don't see a lot of places like this. We had a wonderful experience... more

I am a huge BBq fan that lives in Fla. I travel to Va at least 3 times a year and always stop there on the way up and take home at least 6 pounds on the way home. The buffet has great sides but to me, its the pork that I cant get enough of. If you coming through... more

Absolutely great southern food. All of the food is prepared on site from old family recipes. The first Dukes opened in 1946 and now there are about 20 around the state. All are family owned and operated with the exception of three. Was picked by Southern Living Magazine as one of the top 100 barbeque restaurants in America, (1 of... more
