We first visited Duncan’s in February and decided on the Cajun salmon, only to be informed later by our waitress that it was 86’d. I ended up ordering the vegetable tacos instead, which were fresh and full of flavor. We returned last weekend and we both had starters. Mine was the lentil soup, a classic that I really enjoyed, while my partner had the calamari tempura. Unfortunately, the batter on the calamari was slightly undercooked, giving it a doughy taste. For mains, we both ordered the Cajun salmon since it was available this time. Unfortunately, the salmon lacked flavour and had the texture of fish that wasn’t fresh—disappointing, especially given the restaurant’s proximity to the water and several fish markets within a 10-15 mile radius. The rice was slightly undercooked—not inedible, but it could have used a few more minutes. The sauce was also quite bland. On both visits, the service was relaxed yet attentive. The waitstaff couldn’t be faulted, and the pricing felt fair—I had no issue with the bill either time. Unfortunately, the kitchen was the weak point of the experience.

Bad, bland food, not a great selection on the menu. Chips are edible and the staff are nice though.
