“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Orale Mexican Bar & grill and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a vibrant atmosphere that immediately transported us to Mexico. The menu offered a wide variety of authentic dishes, each bursting with flavor and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. We started with the guacamole and chips, which were both incredibly fresh and delicious. For our main course, we tried the chicken enchiladas green sauce and mole sauce and it did not disappoint. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and every bite was a delight to the taste buds. The service was also impeccable. Our server Martha, Joel and Carlos were knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. The staff seemed genuinely passionate about sharing their love for Mexican cuisine with their customers, which added to the overall ambiance of the restaurant. The ambiance of the restaurant was lively and inviting, with colorful decor and Mexican music playing in the background. It truly felt like a little slice of Mexico right in the heart of Hanover Park. Overall, I highly recommend Orale Mexican Bar and grill to anyone looking for an authentic Mexican dining experience. Whether you’re a seasoned Mexican food enthusiast or trying it for the first time, you won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait to return and try more of their delicious offerings!“
