Wow!! What a gem! The service, the food, the ambiance AND the cocktails were outstanding! We wandered in after a Chiefs game on a Friday and struggled to find the door The halibut with white beans was delish and the cocktail menu was amazing! Our server was kind, knowledgeable and perfectly paced, her smile just added to the welcoming atmosphere. We will be back... again and again!

We tried 4 different entrees last night. Each were AMAZING! So good that we ordered another! Service was really good and our waitress was very busy as we were trying their Gin drinks...White Linen was our favorite! Cool vibe too!

Basement bar is really cool, great place for a date. Upstairs in like a fancy diner, really good food. Durkin's double is arguably the best burger in town

Just go. Don't even hesitate. This is the real Spokane bar/food experience. If you can get a seat near the food prep, do it. It reminds me of The Bear without the shouting. These guys are good. The f-n amazing burger may be the reason you go the first time, but I suspect the rest of the menu gets on your must-eat list.

first time at Durkin's per the recommendation of a friend. immediately loved the vibe inside. You could easily elevate your look or stay super casual and you wouldn't stand out either way. My friend told me about the cool bar in the basement but neither the server or other staff members told us about it so know that is there. my boyfriend got the steak which he said was an 8/10 (he's a TOUGH critic) but the portion size was too small. I got the cauliflower cheddar soup and it was delicious! The baguette it comes with was amazing.

My new favorite restaurant in Spokane!! Ambiance: There are two areas to this restaurant/bar. When you first walk in there are a row of booths across from the cooking station. This is a good area for perhaps a group of 4-5. We said hello to the chefs when we walked passed but they were not really engaging which is totally fine because they are working overtime to create amazing food. The downstairs however is such a vibe, a darker lit area with unique seating and decor, as well as a full bar. The music is A1 and the booths/chair combos are perfect for a dinner of two. There is also a couple small couches in the middle of this area that offer another unique seating area. Service: Downstairs the bartender was our server as well. He was amazing!! As soon as we came in I was confident he knew what he was doing. He made my date and I two amazing drinks and he also answered any questions we had regarding the menu. Food: OH MY GOODNESS. This food is top tier. If you've ever been to the Otium in Los Angeles this was so so close in quality if not at that level of quality. I got the burger and my date got the mushroom gnocchi. Both dishes were 11/10. The gnocchi was melt in your mouth and the sage on top was crisp and full of flavor. I also got the fig salad which was delightful however beware to chew with caution, due to some hard pieces in the figs. The burger is made with "chuck patties" which is a ground beef made in house, and omg it was to die for!! Most of the dishes were in the $20-30 dollar range which I think is pretty darn good for the quality. We will definitely be coming back to this restaurant. I'd also like to thank Jessica from 24 Taps for recommending this restaurant to us. Cheers!

We celebrated my nieces 60th birthday on November 21st. Food and service is great but the booth we sat in needs to be replaced! I slid in and hooked my pants on a protruding spring. I kept forgetting to mention it to the server and of course they were busy. I didn't realize until Thanksgiving day that my pants got ripped from the spring. I covered it with black tape but removed it for the picture. Today is Monday & they are closed. I don't have Instagram to write them a note. I hope they see this!!

Love Durkins. Cheeseburger is a wet sloppy kiss from God's Own Labrador. Fries on point. Pickles spectacular. In fact, everything here is pretty fucking awesome. Service is generally warm. Vibes are chill yet sophisticated. Location is central to many things downtown.
