    I selected the NY strip with black pepper sauce. Excellent dish, meat was well cooked, but for the price it could have come with a small side (vegetable). Service was friendly and diligent.

    I had a great time doing the chef’s tasting for my birthday. 10 dishes brought out and I tried all of them. The icing on the cake was the banana bread pudding! Our server was amazing and very knowledgeable about all the food choices that were presented to us.

    Food was perfect. However I would have preferred a little more spacing between the tables and noise level made us raise our voice when conversing. But again, the food was fantastic.

    We've been patrons at Oro for over 10 years and they never disappoint. They are our go to for celebrations or out of town guests, or just a night out. Corey and Cheyenne have become like family and always take excellent care of their guests. Seasonal food and drink menu with some staples, like the truffle Mac and cheese and the chocolate dome which can't be missed! There are always new restaurants to try in downtown, but Oro is a classic that has stood the test of time for a reason!
