    Super sweet little place with an elegant but welcoming atmosphere. Food was great and the service excellent and as a bonus, it hasn’t been discovered yet so we had no wait and it was quiet.

    We sat at the chef's counter with a great view into the tiny kitchen, which was an experience in itself. No wonder the food is so good because that's one peaceful, harmonious and efficient kitchen. The service stands out at L'Orange for enthusiasm and personal attention. Our server, Erica, was so lovely and that last time I was there I also had an amazing server. We ordered the mushroom broth-based French onion soup, which was my daughter's favorite due to the garlic bread pudding - custardy texture against the crispiness of the cheese - and the intricate, delicious flavors. I had (for the second time) gnocchi which does not fail to delight due to the pillowy texture and layers of sauces and flavors. Dessert must include the orange cake because the flavor of natural orange is strong and pleasant. Again with the textures: burnt sugar crust, moist cake, cardamon icing and orange gelee. So many flavors to mix and match on the fork. We also had the white chocolate mousse with layers of cake and cranberry. So good. We'll be back for the service, the food and the sweet ambiance.

    We did the tasting menu and the only complaints are that it was heavy on the salads and there was no dessert. But it was great food and great service. Would definitely recommend

    We loved the tapa style menu and the drinks were amazing! The LeChon Margarita was the table fav! The elote, the pequito empanadas and the scallops with polenta were our favs. Next time we wa to sit at the kitchen bar, and we lived the jellyfish aquarium behind the bar. We went for dinner but this would be a great place to meet up for HH too!!

    As always, the food was delicious, drinks were tasty, and service was friendly. Only downside is the noise level. We usually sit in the bar area to take the edge off the sound.
