We had an awesome meal at Duende! We got there about 6pm and ended up grabbing a cocktail while waiting for a spot at the bar because they were all booked up. The wait took quite a while but that was more of a timing thing and bad luck for us not any fault of the restaurant. The bartenders were very attentive (even though they were slammed) to those not actually sitting at the bar and my wife and I both had the Paloma. Very refreshing. Once we sat down Noah took great care of us. We started with the cabbage salad which had a nice vinegrette, pistachios, and chopped olives. Next, we had fried delicata squash with a scallion pomegranate yogurt sauce. We probably could have eaten 10 of those! For the main course we split a seafood paella with squid ink. The muscles, rockfish, and rice were cooked PERFECTLY! It was probably enough for 3. I was stuffed to the brim but my wife had a chocolate flan which she gave rave reviews. Noah finished us off with a free taste of a digestif liquor.
Take homes: Great ambiance. Atentive staff. Amazing food.

Love the location and decor! Great service, perfect drinks! Food is too salty for its price 😱will come back for drinks though...

Had a great experience here! Fun atmosphere and a creative take on Spanish food. Everything we ordered was fantastic but I especially loved the cabbage salad and squid ink paella. Sangria was refreshing and not too sweet!

Came here on a Friday night with a friend for dinner. Initially we were told that it will take 30+ minutes for a table, fortunately we were able to find two seats at the bar, so we took it. Everything looked delicious on the menu, but we were able to pick out 5 things on it. Our initial thought was that it will be more than enough, sadly we were wrong. As the food started arriving, we realized how small all the portions were (don't take my words for it, just look at my pics). By the end of the night our bill was over $140 with a few drinks and we weren't even full! As good as the food is, I would only recommend coming here for HH or when you just want something small. Otherwise, skip it and go to a real restaurant.

The food is very good. The cocktails aren't blow you away but the presentations fine. Parking is incredibly hard and you can really spend $300 here between 4 people quickly, just sharing dishes. 4 stars because I can't do 3.5 stars- not that accessible and pretty expensive.
