Aesthetically pleasing atmosphere + high quality sounds = great vibes to enjoy a wonderful dining experience. The dishes were planned and executed well… depth of flavor was amazing! To top it off, the service was just as good… awesomely attentive and fast. Beyond the food, the drinks were done very well too! Worth the spend and definitely returning!!!

The ambience was nice, however the food was not good, and the service was pretty slow. The music was nice, but it made it difficult to have a conversation. We were seated at a table right next to the DJ. We also were reminded of our time constraints pretty early in the evening and therefore felt rushed. Very pricey for the food and experience.

staff was a bit odd. every interaction with each employee felt flustered, unpolished and awkward. i shared my dietary restrictions and the waitress responded by saying “yikes” and then called me special needs. the food was good but expensive for the portions.

The ambiance here was awesome! Drinks were fantastic! We were seated near the dj booth, but never felt like the music was too loud. We’ll definitely coming back!

Really loved the atmosphere, sound and service. The food was pretty pricey for what it was. We had the edamame which was drizzled with some sticky sesame sauce (very messy to eat), duck taco (ok) and lobster arepas (this dish was tasty but difficult to eat). With the amount of duck in the duck taco, I think it really could have been two tacos which would have been easier to share. The concept is 100% and I would for sure go back.

Orosoko is a unique space and a neighborhood gem! The service is always top-tier. The food presentation, flavor combinations, and options are great. The drinks are fantastic and well-crafted. It is acoustically immersive with a chic vibe. Perfect for dates and small groups. Wah at reception and Nick who manages were super friendly and welcoming! I can't wait to go back!
