Orale Mexican Restaurant

Excellent food, fast and friendly service. The space is comfortable and convenient right in the center of Hopkinton.

Having grown up in Hopkinton, I have seen this space change numerous times, but this one actually may just be good enough to stick around for a bit! We went in for lunch on a Friday afternoon, and at first I was a little bit skeptical just based on the menu, and being given bottled water, and the initially wait time of service, but I was pleasantly surprised by the end! My sister got the oral burrito, I got chicken fajitas, and my dad got the steak tacos. Each portion was A LOT of food and very tasty! I

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this delightful Mexican restaurant tucked away in Hopkinton, Massachusetts. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in for a treat. Not only did the flavors surpass my expectations, but the overall experience left me with a lasting impression.The shrimp tacos I ordered were nothing short of phenomenal. However, it wasn't just the main dish that stole the show. The salsa accompanying the tacos was a true revelation. Bursting with vibrant flavors and a perfect balance of heat and tanginess, I found myself contemplating drinking it with a straw. It was simply that good. The salsa elevated the entire meal and added an extra layer of culinary excellence.To my delight, the restaurant also catered to my daughter's taste buds. She opted for a fresh juice and couldn't stop raving about it. It's wonderful to find a place that offers options for all ages and preferences.Now, I must mention that the ongoing construction outside the restaurant has had a negative impact on their business. It's disheartening to see such a gem affected by external factors beyond their control. This small, local business deserves our support and patronage. Despite the small inconvenience, the experience within the restaurant itself remains exceptional, and I encourage everyone to come and show their support.In conclusion, this cute Mexican restaurant in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, is an absolute must-visit. The exceptional flavors, especially the shrimp tacos and mouthwatering salsa, make it stand out from the crowd. The dedication to serving delicious food and accommodating all tastes is commendable. Let's rally together and help this small local business thrive amidst the construction challenges.

Cute Mexican restaurant right in downtown Hopkinton. We've only used for takeout so far, but they have a separate seating area which includes a full bar off the kitchen - cashier area. The fajitas are a good deal. Not a gourmet Mexican restaurant, but a nice casual spot where the food is fresh and nicely prepared. We'll be back to try the seating area soon.

Mexican salad was just lettuce, tomato, cucumber, chicken, pico de gallo. Could have made that at home, and it was soggy. Oh, and they forgot the dressing. Also ordered a pork burrito and nachos. Both were stone cold. The order was obviously made immediately, and then sat around too long after we were told it would take 35 minutes.The positive--the burrito flavors were very good!We REALLY want these guys to survive and thrive, but you gotta try harder!!!

Service was good. Food was quite tasty. I would recommend and will stop by again. The taco pastor was delicious as was the beef burrito.

We started going here a few weeks after they opened. It was very crowded at first, as new restaurants always are in this area because there aren't that many. We started ordering take-out, which has always been good.This time we came with friends. We were able to order beer and spirits (they also have wine). The Mezcal tasted nice and smoky. They have cocktails, but I chose to drink it straight. One of the people who came with us had a tequila and said it was good. The service was a little slow and we did have to remind the server once, but I'm not taking that off my rating because it was still very good and he was very apologetic about not remembering the item. There was only one table when we arrived, so maybe the server was busy helping with the take-out orders. We will certainly continue to order take-out and go there with guests.

We've only gotten take out from Orale Mexican restaurant in Hopkinton and every time we get it there's always a problem with our order. Today my husband placed the order at 4:45 and was told via online that it won't be available until 6. It wasn't a complicated order - 2 quesadillas. It was ready a little before 5:30 - the meat in both was over cooked and could hardly even taste the tiny chunks of meat. After the last time tonight I doubt we will go back. I'm not happy about the service but was hoping they would get better once the kinks were worked out. But not the case. It's so nice to have choices in town of more restaurants but I don't think this will succeed. I hope it does improve.

Love the fact the owner of this restaurant continues to invest in her business. Improvements everywhere you look this time around. Love it!! Food as akways is fresh and AMAZING.

Tacos Al pastor and carnitas are the best around, everyone is super nice.....food is beautifully plated with super fresh flavors, not over salted like their competitors in the metro west.Definitely worth trying out, looking forward to bringing the kids.
