Solid food (the mushroom enchiladas and spicy guacamole stood out; also loved how the churros were served!) + cocktails. Comfy seating for a large-ish group. Our server seemed visibly annoyed by us, though, which took away from what was otherwise a lovely experience.

Orale is one of my favorite places in JC. This particular trip was another great experience overall. Lost a star for being too dimly lit, and crowded with a lot of noise. However, it was Cinco de Mayo so it was obviously different than a normal day. I will definitely return.

I left instructions that it was a birthday and ordered dessert and nobody remembered. Then I haven’t had a drink since 2024 and my margarita had no salt on the rim and 3/4 full. Very disappointed. Food was good but I thought a little overpriced.

Food and ambience is good. But service to start was slow and drinks didn’t had the alcohol as asked for. Was expected to make it celebration but the team forgot to make it special for us unlike i saw them doing for others.
