    Had such a wonderful time at Musical Night! 🎶 The food was really good, and the dessert was absolutely excellent! The vibe was amazing, the music was great, and we loved how interactive the evening was. We joined in, sang along, and had so much fun! Definitely a great experience and a fun night out. Highly recommend! ❤️

    Ole had a very fun and exciting atmosphere particularly for the suburbs. They had music playing, beautiful decor and a nice crowd. The downside here was the food. While the menu reads well, the execution isn’t there. Most of the foods we tried were fried, although not disclosed on the menu, and covered in sauces with food coloring. The fusion concept is interesting but could be done better.

    Food was lacking in flavor, guacamole was not made to taste like other tables were. Pork belly was almost all fat. Overall very disappointing and we left without ordering entrees. Service was also slow, spilled water, dropped chip, brought our drink late.

    Ole Craft Kitchen delivered one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. Our waiter, Raj, was absolutely amazing. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the evening. We decided to make a meal out of appetizers and were impressed by both the quality and creativity of the dishes. The Guac with Dips, Black Bean Tiayuda, Brussels Sprout Salad, Queso de Campo Empanada, and Pulled Jackfruit Tacos were all delicious and full of flavor. The Corn Three Ways was good, although it didn't stand out quite as much as the other dishes. The appetizers were so satisfying that we never even made it to the main entrées! The drinks were fantastic, beautifully prepared and a perfect complement to the meal. For dessert, we tried the Tres Leches and the Vegan Chocolate Ganache. The Vegan Chocolate Ganache was okay, but the Tres Leches was absolutely delicious and easily the highlight of the dessert course. What truly stood out, beyond the great food and drinks, was the level of service. One detail that really impressed us was how frequently our water glasses were refilled. Raj and the team somehow always seemed to notice before our glasses were empty. We never had to ask, and it was refreshing to experience such attentive hospitality when so many restaurants require multiple requests for something as simple as water. Between the exceptional service from Raj, the creative appetizers, excellent cocktails, and delicious desserts, Ole Craft Kitchen earned every bit of this 5-star review. We can't wait to return and finally try the main entrées next time!

    Went there last pm to celebrate my brother's birthday. It was our first time there. From the moment we entered, we were greeted with warm, friendly service. Instead of main course entrees, we chose a series of appetizers to share and each selection was superb! I've already told friends about this place!

    This place is an absolute disgrace and needs to shut down immediately. The food is awful and completely inedible. Calling this 'Mexican food' is a total joke—everything is disgustingly sweet and not authentic at all. You are blatantly lying to and scamming the public. Eating here will literally make you sick. Save your money and health—do NOT step foot near this place!"

    We will be back. Watch parties should be a little quieter so we can hear the tv but everything else was great! We love the food ambience and the customer service was excellent

    Just had a great date night at Ole! Since we had plans afterward, we stuck to the small plates and it was the perfect choice. We ordered the guac, soy wings, empanadas, and mushroom pizza.. everything was absolutely phenomenal! They also have a great selection of mocktails, which was such a nice treat. Yuri, our waiter, was super attentive and so friendly to chat with, making the experience even better. Highly recommend checking Ole out for a fun date night or a night out with friends!
