Uptown Oakland Favorite Duende Has Closed After 11 Years - Eater SF
"Duende, a modern Spanish restaurant from chef Paul Canales, has closed after 11 years. The restaurant served regional Spanish cuisine with local ingredients, including paella and tapas, and often hosted events with flamenco dancers. It faced challenges post-pandemic with shifts in customer behavior towards delivery or to-go orders, which did not fit its style. Despite its closure, Duende was a beloved neighborhood spot, known for its art-filled space and special dinners." - Dianne de Guzman
