Hubby absolutely nailed date night with Oye -- this was a full-on foodie experience. First tip: grab a table upstairs. Better light, great vibe, and look for Sophie's hole in the wall (iykyk). The menu? Wow. Creative in a way that actually works. Think cocktails like a salt-and-pepper strawberry situation that somehow hits every note. We shared our way through the menu: olives and a dreamy ricotta spread on focaccia, a fresh and unexpected watermelon ceviche, and barbacoa layered over what can only be described as cheesy magic. Every dish felt thoughtful and a little surprising. Service matched the food. Sam, our waiter, was basically doing a stair-climbing marathon (he claims 20K steps a day and I believe it), crafting and delivering drinks with serious creativity and hustle. The owner/chef stopped by multiple times -- answering my many questions and clearly pouring heart into elevating Durango's food scene beyond the usual IPAs, burgers, and pizza. If you're looking for something romantic, memorable, playful, and genuinely delicious, this is your spot. read more
