   Very expensive for quality. Meal for 2 took approximately 2.5h even though we had 30 min of active eating. Lots of waiting for everything. Was told course didn't have "pieces of onion" and it did. Drinks are very heavy pours which makes them not taste like craft cocktails so not worth the price.

   We went to Oro for Raleigh Restaurant Week. The restaurant has a hip/trendy vibe and is a nice date night spot. The best dishes to order for restaurant week IMO are the confit fingerling potatoes, coconut curry pork shank (highlight of the meal) and the chocolate mousse. Highly recommend the Vera Vinho Verde if you enjoy crisp, sunny wine. I’d definitely come back to try the classic tapas-style menu.

   Overall, enjoyed the experience. Food was well cooked and tasty. I enjoy a tapas atmosphere, Oro didn’t disappoint. Our waitress was engaging and funny. However, she was busy so we had to wait longer than normal to get her attention. I understand she was carrying a lot of tables. The bread pudding was absolutely delicious.

   Total hype-a place that is more show than substance. Great ambiance, but the food is lacking in so many ways. There are better restaurants in the area that are worth the money. The service we received was horrible. The waitress told us she only works there when they are short staff. I hope this is the case because she completely lacks the people skills to make it as a server. We usually tip twenty percent or more. We gave her fifteen percent only because we couldn't bring ourselves to give her the lesser amount she deserved.

   We were seated upstairs at tables less than 2 feet apart. Really disappointed in that. Felt like I was seated with strangers. I was super uncomfortable. Food was delicious as usual, but service was not great. Food was delivered quickly, but we had minimal attention from our server, had to track her down several times to get drinks or order more food. If this had been my first experience at ORO I would not be back. As it is I will not accept upstairs seating again.

    Great location downtown. It was a bit too loud for me and the sitting was very close! The food was good. We went during Triangle restaurant week, so we mainly got what was on that menu. Will definitely go back and try something on their regular menu.

    Wow, what a great experience! Corey and his team are total ROCKSTARS. Went to Oro after being intrigued by the restaurant week options. Blown away by the options, presentation, and flavor. Morgan gave great recommendations, swordfish fish and also the stuff pepper as the main courses. Desserts we rich and flavorful. In all a great atmosphere, perfect way to start your evening.

    Server was awkward from start to finish and also popped the smoke bubble of my drink. Just a very weird dude overall, not sociable in any aspect. First interaction was him coming to the table and just standing there without saying a word. As if he was purposefully waiting for me to say hi first.

    Simply amazing! Our waiter Kevin was outstanding! Outside of being personable and suggestive to the menu his candid few seconds of conversation between checking on us made the difference in making us feel welcomed and appreciative! The menu was remarkable and unique, very tasty! We ordered about 6 items from the dinner menu and two drinks from the cocktail menu I can’t wait to go back to try the other options! The Chilean Sea Bass over Short Ribs was the flavor of the night!

    Wow just wow! It was a dinner out with friends night and worth every dime we spent! Corey, our waiter, was phenomenal and made the experience for our dining party and those around us perfection! His recommendations for food and wine were on point. We tried plates from all sections of the menu and were not disappointed—-and PLEASE order dessert both the campfire and the chocolate dome are cannot miss! Plates we tasted: Brussel sprouts, chicken and truffle potstickers, sticky ribs, black chili calamari, tuna spring rolls, Chilean sea bass, tomahawk pork chop,campfire, chocolate dome

    I had heard great reviews from an experience of a friend from a few years ago. The website has lots of rules for reservations and claims limited seating. It sounded exclusive and very high end. I got all dressed up and saved up for a great dining experience. It was super disappointing. The wait staff does not coordinate nor have anything sleek about their attire which feels very unprofessional. The waiter was kind but seemed out of breath and anxious every time she greeted us. The food sounds interesting but is over cooked and over seasoned. Any one can put together a charcuterie board from food lion with any sense. Nothing special about the cooking, environment or presentation. It was like a college attempt at fancy. But the prices reflected a much higher quality experience. Too bad. Juju in Durham is excellent if you want tapas.

    This is our first time at this restaurant. Kevin was our waiter and we appreciated him helping us with the menu. We enjoyed the grilled avocado and cauliflower. My kale was overfried but thank goodness it wasn’t the main dish with the cauliflower. The salmon was not the best. The other bottom shell was too oily and cooked too much. I would try it again

    I have never felt as bad for a server as I did eating here- it took more than 25 minutes for a drink order to be taken and another 25 minutes to have all drinks at the table (3 cocktails and a soda) we had to request drinks and additional plates as there was no checking in because the server was spread so thin. The food is good and a great Tapas Syle- creative cocktails. Louder environment when sitting upstairs because they don't have anything to hold in the noise- it also made it difficult to hear everyone at the table.

    My husband mom and I went to Oro for Christmas Eve. The main reason for my poor review is they were out of several items and we were not told until we tried to order. We had drinks and appetizers so we were there long enough to be notified. We ended corking our wine and leaving with only one course. The server just kept saying “I don’t normally work here”. So that means the kitchen didn’t do their job in communicating. We were all very disappointed
