Oro

Went there tonight with my sister! Sat at a table in the bar area. My sister ordered a glass of wine and I ordered a cosmopolitan. Her wine was delivered within a minute. 20 minutes later I was still waiting for my drink. No acknowledgement from anyone for the wait. We finally got up and left. I know they were busy but this was unacceptable. Will not be returning!

What a disappointing evening at Oro ! My first time in this restaurant. Had great expectations and ok memories from the restaurant on front street. Menu tonight was surprisingly very limited. And a couple items were not available. Only one cooked fish on menu, surprising for a “seafood restaurant”. It was salmon that we eat frequently at home so we passed. One of us had steak. 2nd order was chicken. They did not care for their order at all. Did not taste but presentation was poor. I had the Cesar salad with (boiled/poached ?) chicken. Zero flavor. I wonder who the “chef” is because he would not last one minute on chopped lol. Service was ok and you could tell that our waitress was a bit overworked. Patrons at bar seemed happy enough. Maybe it is a place to go for drinks and snacks because the food is NOT worth your time and money.

This place used to be in Scituate Harbor and I remember it being very good. We moved from the area five years ago and came back into town and ended up trying the new location. Ouch. Arguably one of the worst entrees I’ve ever had in my life. This place might be good for the drinks, but that’s it. The genius who plated salad with a warm meat entree probably didn’t think that the salad would be soaked in the meat juice, but it certainly was. Artichoke fritters? Last I checked the fritter should be fried, not a lukewarm ball of batter with a .5 gram piece of artichoke. Fortunately I don’t live in Scituate anymore so this misfortune will just be a blip on the radar. BAD! There is no way this place lasts.
