I wanted to love this place after reading mostly good things before visiting, but after going there this weekend, I feel misled by all the positive reviews. As a native Mexican-American raised in Texas, it’s been hard to find good, authentic Mexican food in the Northeast. Unfortunately, this place has some of the blandest rice I’ve ever had in my life. It was the right color, had the right texture and the right vegetables, but absolutely zero flavor. My mouth was confused when upon the first bite all I tasted was water. Sadly, that’s how the remainder of the bites were. I couldn’t justify trying to finish something so poorly seasoned. The beans were a little more flavorful, but the texture threw me off. Refried beans are usually a little more stiff in terms of consistency, but these felt like a straight stream of bean water. It was so odd. The sopes similarly lacked flavor, being overpowered by the shredded and fried chicken they topped the sopes with. The only redeeming dish (and the reason I decided on 3 instead of 2 stars) was the torta which had a good balance of flavor, and the chips and salsa. I’ve always said that you can tell how authentic a place is based on their chips & salsa offerings, but I finally found a place that defies that standard. From now onwards, I’ll try not to be too optimistic on just chips and salsa alone.

Customer Service impeccable! Literally above and beyond. Everyone there is all smiles, ambiance is welcoming. Their al pastor meat is very well seasoned compared to others near by. Food in general is super flavorful and tasty. Price wise it’s a steal for how delicious the food is. The tortillas are hand made in restaurant . Literal *chefs kiss*

Authentic Mexican food. I ordered the tostadas and they were really good! I also tried the birria tacos and that was even better. Small restaurant with nice decor. Plenty of street parking available.

Family-run restaurant with homely cooking and cosy vibes. Love the chicken burrito with generous toppings of fresh salad. Tacos were a little dry but that’s easily solved with the sauces provided. Service was warm and efficient. Great hospitality. So glad we visited!

Orale is truly a local hidden gem and offers some of the widest selection and most authentic Mexican food around. I especially enjoy the wide selection of tacos they offer which usually comes with 4 for 12 dollars for their regular selection and 3 for 12 dollars with more specialized meat such as head, tongue or intestine. The service here is incredible, the staff very friendly and they have an incredible chef as well who makes excellent food. I personally visit Orale for lunch or dinner 2 to 3 times a week minimum and whenever I go they are almost always busy – which absolutely speaks to the quality of the food here! If you’re looking for some great Mexican food at very very reasonable prices, I would highly recommend Orale!

We were looking for a small close by Mexican restaurant without a lot of hoopla and found this. clean , good service tasty food .we had enchiladas, pulled pork and shrimp. The young woman who served us was helpful and friendly. I am not a Mexican food expert, but we will return.

I’ve been coming here for awhile. Especially now that they reopened after the major flooding in Manville from hurricane Ida last September.

Great Mexican food in Manville downtown. I was skeptical at first, most of the places on the block is closed. Since it had great reviews, thought I would give it a try. It was a gem. Colorfully decorated small local joint, serving authentic Mexico cooking, portion was generous and ingredients were fresh.
