The Takeout Test continues with Orale Taqueria! This is when we ask the tough questions about our takeout experience: 1. Is it ready relatively quickly? - Yes! I placed the order at the restaurant & my food was ready in about 15 minutes. 2. Does it travel well? - Yes! I was a little wary about transporting the consommé, but the staff at Orale double bagged it. There was no leakage. 3. Does it reheat well? - Inconclusive! I didn't need to reheat anything this time. The food was still warm by the time I got home & I finished it all in one sitting. 4. Is it still visually pleasing, even squished into a container? - Yes! The birria tacos were still a sight to behold. They somehow still "plated" them beautifully in a styrofoam container. Brava! 5. Is the portion size comparable to the dine-in size? - Yes! I could spot no difference between the takeout portion & the dine-in portion. Two birria tacos with a side of consommé was the perfect portion size for me for dinner. Overall, Orale Taqueria passed the Takeout Test with flying colors. Order away, fellow Yelpers! read more

2/15/2026 @1:30pm Absolutely disappointed with the meals today, The Menudo was so thinned out it and watered down it was completely bland, with a 1/4" oil slick across the top. $20 in the trash. The Birria tacos tasted burnt and the consume was just colored water, lackluster and another waste of money. The Enchiladas Verdes, the chicken inside was dry and stringy. Sadly the rice that was with it was also old and dry, and the refried beans (soup?) was so watered down it didn't even coat the spoon when dipped into it At least they didn't mess up the chips and guacamole, a small miracle from today's disaster. I've been there twice before without incident, today turned me away forever. read more

Super good tacos!! Small taqueria a little outside the busier parts of East Cambridge. Vibrant interior and not too many indoor seats. We came on a weeknight and seating wasn't an issue Got the shrimp tacos and they were packed with flavor and super tender and juicy! Best tacos I've had in awhile. They are definitely on the pricier side, but compared to the other expensive tacos in town, these ones are better. Will definitely come back to try more things, there seems to be a good amount of variety on the menu read more

The best authentic birria tacos ! Incredible flavors and always fresh. Highly recommend if you like spice 10000/10 . Place is cozy and cute!

Most authentic Mexican food I've had in Rhode Island so far. Great prices and good customer service.

Worst food experience my life. The food is disgusting, the tamales are burnt, dry and literally spoiled. How can this pass from the cook to the person packing and dispatching the to go order? read more

Absolutely disgusting. Came a few times and it was decent but the last time the tacos were zero meat and ALL nerves/fat. ALL 3 TACOS! Literally looked like it came from the garbage. I don't know how the cook could do this, non-intentionally.... They would not give my money back. I don't know if people got fired that night because there were also other people loudly complaining and wanting their money back. They offered me more food but I was too disgusted and uncomfortable- I didn't want to eat anything else from this place. read more

We went here fire the churros. They're made to order, fresh, sweet, crunchy! Two churros for $5. These churros made it back to Massachusetts, still warm, still delicious. Highly recommend! read more

This is the ONLY place to get tamales in Rhode Island! Hands down! The masa to meat ratio is PERFECT! It seems like the meat to masa ratio is what restaurants just can't get right in RI but not here! They've got it down perfectly! I had been searching for GOOD tamales for a while in this area and was finally able to order my Christmas tamales from here for my family! On top of the quality of the food here, the customer service is incredible too! If I'm craving authentic Mexican food, I'll for sure be coming here for my fix from here on out. read more

100/10 overall experience. I've been going there for three years now and it has never once disappointed in any way!!! Highly recommend going. Their birria is to die for!!! read more

Really good stuff. I'm so full I can't even type. Upside, amazing tacos. I had the birria taco with the consume. And honestly without the consume, the tacos alone were immaculate. They stuff it with so much meat it's worth it. It's not skimpy at all. The tacos were pricy along with the consume, but it was worth it. Every bite oozed with flavor. The homemade salsa verde sauce was good as well. The cheese for the quesadilla was expensive so it made it so well. I can't think because I'm so full. But downside, no parking - street parking. Small restaurant. Take out is perfect. Go get yourself some birria tacos you won't be sorry! read more

My family and I really enjoyed our dinner here. Our server was great. Very personable, accommodated our toddler (and brought out her food early!), and made two very tasty margaritas! We enjoyed the birria tacos (and the habanero salsa), the enchiladas, and the awesome churros to cap off our meal. We feel lucky to have Orale in our neighborhood, and will definitely be back! read more

The best! Food is incredible, ingredients are fresh and excellent customer service. Best tacos in PVD!!

I ordered the Birria Tacos with consome. It was magnificent! The ordering process was a bit difficult, however. The lady taking the order was clearly limited in her English as I was limited in my Spanish. We somehow managed and I'm glad we did! read more

The food was terrific and the portions generous. Very fast friendly service. The nachos would have made a whole meal they were topped with all my favorites and were so satisfying. The burrito was loaded with meat seasoned to perfection and was large enough for two meals. I am definitely going back for more next time I have a craving for authentic Mexican food. read more

Best birria tacos in providence hands down! And the guac is a must. Portion control is easily ignored anytime i walk through the door.

Love their birria tacos, also my bf is obsessed with the mix tacos! Drive an extra 20 minutes just to go here! Just order early in advance they do take a bit to provide such delish food read more

Not a bad taco but pretty expensive didn't really like the flavor of the soup the meat was good though

It was our first time coming to this particular taqueria and as soon as we walked in we were greeted. We are huge on tacos and I feel like we been to about 95 percent of taco spots in Rhode Island but this one in particular felt very homey and the tacos were AMAZING! They put so much meat on the taco and they even toast the tortilla for you. I give it a 5 star because it's such a good place to eat or take out and the food was so good. I highly recommend it read more

I've been looking for a good authentic taco spot and I found it ! Great birria tacos I get them every time ! No doubt it's my go to place for comfort food read more

I am so happy this restaurant is in our neighborhood! Food is amazing and staff is friendly and are happy to speak Spanish to everyone

I had the Birria tacos and got really scared because I couldn't taste them. I thought I had Covid! Then I tasted regular tacos they were a bit dry, but the meat had flavor. I like the salsa the most. Birria has no taste, is just salty both the consome and tacos. Going back to my regular taco spot. Waste of money. read more

I love supporting family owned business. But I went to order some tacos and I was charged $60 dollars so I asked for clarification to understand the pricing and the young girl was so rude and arrogant. To find out it was an error on their part. It was a language barrier but instead of working with a first time customers to explain I got attitude. And the tacos were basic. read more

As a native Californian, this is one of the better places I've been to on the east coast...I don't ever pass this place and not stop to get some food. read more

The food was delicious! Ordered the tacos de birria con consome and the loaded nachos con carnitas and I'm impressed. Definitely ordering again soon! read more

no exaggeration these were the worst tacos i've ever had in my life. i had no idea it was possible to make a flavorless taco until i dipped the taco in flavorless broth. even white ppl would've added salt to they shit. read more
