"Duende, Uptown by Arcsine. Duende, the spirit concerned with the balance of light & dark, the evoking of soul and catering to a heavy heart, is the concept of Spanish folklore that inspired this progressive restaurant. With interesting combinations of traditional and contemporary Spanish cuisine from tapas dishes to large paellas, the exuberant Paul Canales continues to exceed expectation. The scene is energetic, with dynamic lighting emanating from custom metal light fixtures and curated art as inspired by the folklore concept. The bodega side is a retail treat, full of eclectic wines, perfect for at home food pairing."
