  • Tamales

    The tamal to order at Duo's is dessert: the Tamal de Cacao, a chocolate tamale with corn mousse, cajeta and pecans. Duolingo's culinary arm started this East Liberty taqueria as a takeout window, and it has grown into a full restaurant led by chef Marcella Ogrodnik, with a Mexico City inspired menu. Before the tamal, get the suadero tacos with Jubilee Hilltop Ranch brisket and salsa arbol, the crispy white fish taco and the daily agua fresca.

  • Tacos

    Duo's serves tacos on tortillas made in house at a bright East Liberty counter. Suadero, beef cheek, al pastor, and vegetable fillings come with salsas that add distinct layers of heat and acidity. Spanish-language learning is part of the dining-room concept.
