Lovely dinner there last night. We had a later booking but our plans changed and they kindly squeezed us in earlier. Delightful place, imaginative menu - everything we tried was really excellent. My wife loved her whole sea-bass, my lamb shank was excellent. Stonebaked bread and hummus delicious. Highly recommended.

One of our favorite meals in our entire time spent in Ireland! We would come back to Cork just to dine here again. The food was excellent, drinks were delicious, and they were more than able to accommodate my Vegan and Gluten free needs due to allergies. Orso is an absolute MUST if you are in or nearby Cork.

One of our favorite Cork Restaurants! We happened upon Orso on our first day of our first trip to Ireland. We arrived in Cork to find that reservations are a must, and after several attempts at other places, we happened upon Orso where they had 2 seats at the bar. It's tiny so always have a reservation, which we do now!
The bartender was very friendly and personable, and helped with recommending dishes. The lamb shank was amazing, as were the cocktails. We were hooked from the first visit and now Orso is always our first dinner on the first night in Cork. We even came twice on our last visit.
Highly recommend!

After a brutal 49-5 (England v Ireland All Ireland Women's Six Nations) we came to Orso for some food and comfort. The dishes were absolutely excellent, fresh and very tasty. Very professional staff, super attentive and polite. Highly recommend the lamb shank, fish of the day (sea bass) and pear tatin. We will return. Thank you for having us.

The food was incredible but the service I had was some of the best I've had in years. Hats off to Sacha, thank you for the wonderful experience. Will definitely be back.

Amazing food, 10/10! Everything was well-prepared, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
The place is small but very cozy — everything is new, clean, and well-organized.
Service was also great, with friendly and attentive staff.
Waiting time was totally fine, nothing excessive.
Highly recommend! Definitely worth a visit.

Increíble servicio, gran carácter, magníficos cócteles y comida y nos permitieron utilizar un vale muy antiguo. Qué joya en Cork City

Visité este café para café y pastel recientemente. El café era bueno y rebanada de panadería delicioso, diferente y casero, muy impresionante. Nos sentamos al aire libre, tabiques de vidrio ofrecen un gran refugio y asientos acogedores con una amortiguación cómoda.
