    Absolutely LOVED this place. Our cocktails were amazing… I had the “pornstar martini” and the “unholy water” 🤌. The Al Pastor Tacos were by far the best tacos I’ve ever had in my life. Our waitress Dani was so fun and had a great vibe. Highly recommend the truffle edamame as well.. def had a bit of a spicy kick to it but still so so good. Overall, this place had the best ambience and such a cozy/moody yet sophisticated and sexy vibe to it. They played great music at the DJ booth (I shazamed like 4 songs) Perfect night for a fun date spot! 11/10 !!! Pro tip — if they seat you against the window make sure to sit down first and snag that booth!!!! It was like sitting on a cloud.

    Loved our experience at Orosoko. The vibe, the music, the food, the drinks. Everything was spot on. The music is loud but they’ve done such a good job with the acoustics you can actually hear everyone at your table and still carry on a conversation! The interiors are sexy and sophisticated. The service was top notch! And the food - everything we had was truly delicious highlights for me were the hamachi and Okonomiyaki. Going back next weekend!

    I love it here everytime! Last time I came was on a Thursday and this time on a Monday. I noticed that they played a different genre of music, so I love that they do that so that it’s kind of a different experience each time. I also love how cozy the leather swivel chairs are! This is the place you go to if you want a chill relaxed vibe in a cute atmosphere

    Great spot! Service and food, spot on! The place is small, really small and the music seemed to get louder as dinner progressed. Couldn’t really talk over the Dj but it is a “sound bar” so I enjoyed the vibe, my drinks, and food. Get the pornstar martini and try the hen in the woods!

    The drinks were over priced and didn’t taste good. The pornstar tastes like cough syrup. I didn’t send it back because it took so long and apparently they said they lost the ticket for our drinks so they gave us the drinks for free. It took a long time for our food to come out. The crab egg rolls were different. It was a mushy crab salad wrapped inside a fried spring roll wrap. A weird combination that was not that tasty. The pork belly steam buns were ok. I’ve never had them with watermelon before. The pork belly was thick. The corn fritters were fried balls and really breaded in the middle. The breading was mushy and there was barely any corn. The hen of the woods taco was good though. I could get it again. It was nicely fried. It was the best thing we got. The ambiance was nice. I’m not sure how the DJ was. We didn’t stay long enough for the DJ. It think they said it started at 8:30.

    Fantastic! When you walk in through the giant swinging front door you enter what feels like a NYC high end bar/restaurant. Everything we had was great! Best kept secret in Charlotte!
