From Albania, with love

Where the Mediterranean gathers

In Albanian, dua means love — and it runs through everything. Inspired by the vibrant traditions of the Mediterranean, brought home to the Bold City with fresh ingredients and an open table.

Our Story
Mediterranean plates at Dua
The Menu

Flavors worth lingering over

Mezze to share, fire-kissed mains, signature cocktails, a cellar from Greece to Spain, and hookah under low light. Mediterranean artistry, from the freshest the season offers.

The Wine Bar

A cellar worth the evening

Vintages from Greece, Italy, Spain and beyond — poured beneath the glow of the bar, by the glass or the bottle, for the long way through the night.

The Room

An evening
that lingers

Two rooms, one feeling. A secluded dining room built for slow dinners, a luxurious lounge of couches and low light, and a patio of citrus trees and fresh flowers. Pull up a chair and stay a while.

Hospitality
that feels
natural

Built by Alex Lukaj and Mikel Gavoci to bring a night on the Mediterranean to Jacksonville — guarded by twin lions, warmed by real hospitality. A place to celebrate, to gather, to slow down.
