I had such a great experience at Dueling Spoons. The vibe in there is absolutely amazing — it’s welcoming, relaxed, and just an all-around good atmosphere to enjoy a meal. The food is just as impressive. You can really tell that Chef Billy takes a lot of pride in his work. Everything tastes thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor.
What really makes the place stand out though is Chef Billy himself. He’s such a genuinely nice and friendly person, and I love that he always comes out to check on everyone and make sure they’re enjoying their experience. That personal touch goes a long way. Highly recommend checking this place out!

My husband and I went here for the first time today to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We came for lunch which has a small menu, which had some amazing options. I got the bangers and mash figured Irish restaurant let’s try one of Chefs hometown meals. It was phenomenal. My husband got this roast beef sandwich, that I took a bite of and will be dreaming about tonight. It was amazing. The atmosphere is very home like and everyone there treats you like you are best friends. When they brought one the dessert they sang a happy anniversary song to us. They also gave us a card. You can tell they take pride in their food and the atmosphere there. This is a place I will be coming back too. I also LOVE how in the menu he says “my Kathleen.” Lots of family traditional meals and just a ton of comforts of home. It has a lovely vibe.

I want to say thank you to Chef Billy and the staff at Dueling Spoons for undoubtedly the best meal I have had in my life! First the crab cakes were delicious, the caprice salad was the perfect compliment to them and the clams were amazing. You have to try the Irish wheat bread. Next my husband had the surf and turf with a New York steak. Now I have never liked lobster but Chef Billy converted me. The tastes I had were excellent and my husband loved every bite. My filet and shrimp meal melted in my mouth. You don’t need anything else because they season everything so well. If you have room you must try the Sour Apple Walnut pie. We are sure to go back when we can. The atmosphere is friendly and warm. Like everyone was a big family coming together and Chef Billy takes the time to greet and entertain everyone. Thank you again for the most amazing evening.

We recently moved to the Fall Creek area and were thrilled to discover a restaurant so close by! After reading the reviews — both the glowing ones and a few from the “keyboard warriors” — we went in with realistic expectations, especially after reading their detailed “What to Expect” section on the website.
From the moment we arrived, our experience matched exactly what they promised: a busy, family-run restaurant with genuine charm and incredible food. The flavors were outstanding — each bite was perfection, cooked exactly how we wanted. I was particular about how I like my meat prepared, and Chef Billy himself came out to make sure it was done right. He went above and beyond, and it was absolutely perfect.
Our server (the chef’s son) was attentive, friendly, and checked on us several times throughout dinner. We enjoyed our bottle of wine, the cozy ambiance, and the fun of hearing guests ring the bell as they selected their steaks (including me!). The birthday surprise for my husband — complete with a hand-signed card, dessert, and a cheerful song — made the night even more special.
Before leaving, we had the pleasure of chatting with Chef Billy again, sharing stories, taking pictures, and learning more about his journey and travels. It truly felt like an evening with friends, not just dinner out.
Everything was exactly as described — authentic, lively, and full of heart. We can’t wait to return and try Kathleen’s famous “dessert first” next time. Dueling Spoons has officially earned a spot as one of our new favorite local gems.

First time here and it surpassed my expectations! Everything we got was better than the last. From the starting bread and butter to our mains. I could drink the blue cheese sauce. The filet minion was perfectly cooked. The short rib was fall off the bone and could feed 2. But you won’t want to share.
We will definitely be back. Great staff and very friendly! Thank you Chef Billy for the amazing experience!

We have been wanting to go here for awhile, and so glad we finally did! The food was beyond amazing, it is definitely cooked with love and true passion! Chef Billy brought our meals out to us and he was delightful and quite funny! His daughter was our server, she was adorable and also quick witted! This place is an experience that goes beyond expectations and stays with you! Thank you Reid Family! PS – thank you again for my moon card!

Such a one of a kind experience. I’ve never felt more welcomed and special at a restaurant. Great staff, outstanding food. Beer made in house, which is super cool. Spoke to the Chef on the phone before coming in to place our reservation, which felt very genuine. Seriously the best dining experiences i’ve had the pleasure of having in my lifetime. Absolute gem of an establishment.

What a wonderful time we had at Dueling Spoons! My son and daughter-in-law, Micah and Margaret, treated us to a delicious meal when they made reservations to celebrate my wife’s birthday last week.
With over 40 years in the restaurant business, including as a chef myself (now retired), I was truly impressed with the quality and creativity of the food, the unique atmosphere, and the culinary passion of the owner and Chef, Billy Reid.
He’s not only responsible for an amazing selection of culinary masterpieces but also makes everyone feel welcome—as if they’ve known him for years. It was not just dinner but an experience.
If you haven’t had the opportunity to dine at Dueling Spoons, don’t wait any longer—go now! Of course, if you’ve had the pleasure, I know you’ll go back!
We tried several appetizers and entrees, and enjoyed them all so much that we returned yesterday for Sandwich Club Sunday, which is only available on the first Sunday of the month. They have a collection of amazing, freshly made-to-order items like pastrami, tuna, turkey, and, of course, a Philly cheese steak with the option to upgrade from tender rib eye to waygu beef. (You have to pre-order so mark your calendar.)
Don’t wait to make a reservation; they fill up fast. Contact Chef Billy to reserve your table and tell him Chef John sent you. Bon Apatite!
