We had a great and memorable evening at ORO Restaurant. We had been given a recommendation at our hotel, where they recommended the food and described it as "mediterranean". Expecting some sort of pasta place, we showed up dressed very casually. The staff treated us like royalty, and the food was fabulously creative fusion, presented beautifully. It was a set... More

Business or pleasure, this restaurant is definitely one of the most classy restaurants of Oslo. As soon as you arrive the staff wishes you most welcome you and takes care of you till the end. Fits fine for a an elegant date/anniversary, business or just "fine dinning". We'll surely go back.

Bad news first: The Oro restaurant is expensive. However, if you have money to spend on a truly special evening, look no further. The food is superb, well though out, well plated, well presented, and most importantly: It tastes divine. We opted for the 7-course set menu with accompanying wine menu. The excellent food combined with a range of superbly... More

After many meals at Oro Bar and Grill, I was so disappointed when I excitedly brought a group of 11 friends here on April 30th 2013, expecting another wonderful evening. They were not the same staff. They lacked knowledge, confidence and flexibility. First they had insisted we pre-order 1 of 2 choices (being a group of more than 8). Fair... More

Staff were very welcoming to me as a solo diner with no reservation which is always a good start. I avoided being steered to the restaurant as I thought it would be (even more) expensive. I had a great trout tartare and then fish, both dishes of the day so I had no idea what they would cost. When the... More

My husband and I stopped in for a drink at the recommendation of Trip Advisor. We sat at the bar, and had we it had reservations elsewhere, we would have certainly stayed for dinner, too! The atmosphere is beautiful, the staff is SO NICE, and the food looked superb!! We wanted to go back the next night, but they were... More

First challenge when coming to this restaurant: find the entrance. The restaurant has actually 2 parts: the bar & grill part with a la carte dishes & the more formal tasting menu only part (called: restaurant). I visited this restaurant some five years ago but I wasn't convinced. Now I am. The food was good, tasty, correct portions and the... More

We went to Oro Restaurant and had the 5-course menu. The food was truly excellent, so was the wine. The downside is the price: for 2 the bill was over 2000 NKR. If you are ready to spend that much for food, do it here. Service is also very good, atmosphere and style is OK.
