This was a wonderful and exciting experience! The hostess was so friendly and fun and sweet. She told us about where she came from and made suggestions for us with a very warm smile. The music was festive but gentle, not loud. We were seated by a bay window, which doubled as a seat. I felt as if I were at a cute little diner in Venezuela! I really enjoyed the food. It was a mixture of texture and flavor that I had never had before. It was delightful! We were greeted by the owner, who was also our chef and is an amazing one at that!Soo good!! We will definitely be coming back!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST IN CORPUS. I've been craving arepas and I'm so happy we found this spot. The service was spectacular and the food was even better. The restaurant itself is cozy. We, of course, ordered arepas and also their Saturday special. The pork was sooooo good! We will be coming back again & again. We highly recommend.

My mouth is watering as I'm writing this review. I can still taste the delicious flavors exquisitely put together in there Cachapa con Carne in my mouth. My taste buds have been dosed with dopamine with the Venezolana food. They strive for not only making you these delicious homemade dishes from Venezuela but the service is just as amazing, they are the sweetest! They make you feel as you are entering there home and they sit you down just as a mother would, even giving you hugs and feel so welcome! Thank you Ingrid for showing such great hospitality to me. And compliments to the owner and chef for having this little reconcito to come to in Corpus. Wishing you nothing but growth in your business ??

Stopped for lunch today. My wife got the Arepa Reina Pepiada which she compares to chicken salad and she absolutely loves this sandwich. I got the Pabellon Arepa which also comes as a plate. The meat is tender and the beans and plantains really make this Arepa (sandwich) something special. We finished off our meal with the Quesillo which is the Venezuelan version of the Flan. This is the best Flan in all of Nueces County and quite frankly I've never tasted any better, anywhere. This place is small and friendly and has about 6 tables, though I've never had a problem getting a seat. The owner and her servers are always polite and helpful and happy to see you. Don't forget to ask about her specials. My wife and I just love this place.

My first time there and staff was very friendly & welcoming ? I got La Reina Pepiada and it was so delicious and filled to the brim!

Monica Beckwith

What delicious dishes. I am so speechless and Ora herself was out and about mingling with the diners. The wait staff was very knowledgeable and explained every dish to us. The tables around us told us how much they loved Ora's Kitchen. And the food was just supremely tasty. What more do I say!!?
