Orale Contemporary Mexican Cuisine

This is for a review of the West Side Market stand. I LOVE this place. Everything is fresh and amazing. Mango habanero salsa is a must, as is the jicama/cactus salad. Their tortilla chips are only $3 for a huge bag and they are awesome. Their soft corn tortillas also can't be beat. I'm gonna go here every week. A+++

I love this place. The enchiladas are only $2 a piece and so delicious!!!! They are so many to choose from. I usually get 1 of each and its always a surprise to find out what is in them. They have a large vegetarian selection too. They have fresh cooked chips and a large selection of salsa (they will let you sample anything) I don't think they are open on mondays? but I'm not 100% sure. Pefect to take as a side dish somewhere :)

This is my favorite stand at the West Side Market. I come here every Saturday and get some enchiladas, salsa, beans and rice, guacamole and other Mexican foods. My favorite thing to do is mix and match the salsa. The mango habanero is my favorite. Try to arrive around noon because the guac sells out quickly. I love coming home Saturday night after drinking a few beers, going into my fridge and heating up some Orale. It always prevents an ill feeling in the morning. Roberto is the man.

Orale = Burn my friggin' face of bliss. We didn't grab any solid foods here today, but we went salsa crazy on the Orale stand. We're talking mango habanero salsa to top the swordfish steaks we purchased earlier from Kate's Fish. We grilled those puppies up and topped them with this fresh, slightly sweet, spicy gloriousness. The perfect taste combo... ever. Oh, it didn't end there. We also scooped up the spiciest salsa/sauce they had there. I knew as soon as I laid my eyes on 3XX spice label that it was meant for me--and I was right. One little scoop of this fire-in-my-face deliciousness on a crunchy tortilla chip and I knew I was in trouble. Not from the spiciness, but because I knew I found my new favorite salsa.So, enough about the amazing salsas... how about that service! We were directed to this awesome stand for great additions to grilled fish. The gal at the counter took no time what-so-ever diving right into her fav salsas for meatier fish. What a doll she was. Honestly, even if you're just looking for a great fresh salsa and not a meal or snack, this is the spot for you. Although, I can't wait to come back and try every.single.item. I saw there--especially the marinated steaks, quesadillas, enchiladas and .... well, everything! They'll even nuke it for you so you can nibble it on-the-go!

Delicious assortment of Mexican specialties at this little stand in the West Side Market. We opted for a pork tamale, chicken empanada, and the flank steak quesadilla - which totalled a whopping $9 and they even heated everything up for us to eat right then and there! Being a snob of Mexican food I have to say that this stuff passes the test. Give it a shot next time you're in the Market.

Authentic Mexican with just the right amount of "modern flair". Do not miss out on their tortilla soup! Nice variety of fresh salsas. Chips needed a little salt...

I love the food at Orale, but some of their staff need an attitude upgrade. If you hate your job so much, quit! Some of the people working at this stand are lovely, but today I went there and I honestly can't say what I did wrong. The girl working was clearly complaining about me (while I was still standing there!) and it seemed she was just annoyed I existed. I probably would have gotten more than just salsa if I hadn't been itching to get out of there before I started an argument in the middle of the market...I've had bad service before, but this was different. Maybe she was having a bad day, but is that my fault?All that aside, Orale's salsas and tortillas are all very tasty. And they're lucky they've got that going for them, or I wouldn't go back.

Orale has a stand in the westside market, but also has a brick and mortar restaurant. They offer an excellent vegan menu on Tuesdays, and the regular menu always has a handful of vegetarian/ vegan options! Plus, you can sample a variety of salsas with your meal at no additional cost!Orale is certainly on my Top 10 vegan-friendly place to try in Cleveland!http://veganhostess.com/vegan-cleveland-restaurants-coffee-shops-more/

This review is for the stand inside West Side Market, although I understand there is also a full restaurant outside the market. I was really excited about trying their tamales, which looked great! Aside from them not being cooked fully, the vegetable tamale use canned veggies. Pretty gross. The chips and dip were pretty good but not remarkable by any means. Additionally, they messed the order up. Perhaps the tamales we ordered would have been better than the ones we got? I suggest visiting the West Side Market but passing on Orale...

My fiance and I stumbled upon Orale's looking for a filling Friday night meal. The scallops on the outside menu caught my eye and I knew I had to try them. The staff was very friendly and informative and provided excellent service. With endless salsa, some of the best Jumbo Sea Scallops I've ever had, and the Guajillo Pepper and Orange Glazed Grilled Salmon, we were left truly satisfied with our choice in dinner. The pricing was unbeatable, you can't go wrong with Jumbo Sea Scallops for $12. My fiance and I are also pretty peculiar when it comes to salmon, it was excellent and cooked wonderfully. The chef even came and introduced himself to us to ask how our meal was. We will definitely be returning here soon. Check out my photo of the Jumbo Sea Scallops, if I haven't emphasized them enough, they were fantastic!
