I came here with a friend prior to seeing a play. When new restaurants open, there is typically a lot of hype and service and food are exceptional. I do think Ole Ole fell a little short in these areas. I really liked the atmosphere; the restaurant was dimly lit and had a modern feel to it with unique, spherical light fixtures.
The servers were friendly, but it took too long for the food to arrive and we had mentioned to our server that we were under time constraints. A couple was seated beside us and even though they arrived after us, their appetizers were served before ours were.
The dishes were plated very attractively. We had the El defeno, which is a fancy name for guacamole and chips, at $11. The guacamole was lacking either salt or lime juice. We also ordered the La Penosa, which was a fresh and crisp meat tostada accompanied with black bean puree. I did request Tabasco sauce and one of the servers brought me an empty bottle. Lucky for me, my tacos did come with hot sauce and different garnishes, which were all tasty. Two tacos were $14 and came with chicken and fresh toppings. As service was slow, we didn't have time (or room) for desserts.
