Visited today for the first time since the venue opened. The atmosphere and decor are certainly up there, and you can tell that a lot of thought and effort has gone into designing this to make it stand out amongst local competition.We were greeted at the main door by a friendly staff member, who kindly gave a rundown on how to order food and beverages. As well as this, we were given the option to choose where to sit ourselves, and decided to go outside given the pleasant weather. We ended up having to clear used plates and cutlery off a table ourselves, as it hadn't been removed from the previous patrons (all other tables were either in use, or had a similar issue of used items remaining on them). Can't fault the staff too much, as it was a little busy at just after 3pm.Our order was placed digitally, as we thought it might save time, & consisted of 6 tapas items and 2 drinks. These took around 30mins to arrive, yet a number of items appeared to have been sitting for a while (Calamari was lukewarm, and the Patatas Bravas looked & tasted like they had started to dry out). The Buttermilk Chicken was over cooked and dry, and to top it off the Quesadilla portion size was somewhat disappointing.For the price paid, I would honestly say that we weren't overly impressed, when compared alongside competing restaurants offering similar items and experiences. Perhaps the main course options are of a higher quality and standard, and we were simply unfortunate on this occasion. I am hoping they will make a success of it, I just doubt we will rush back anytime soon.

I'm sad to be leaving this review, as I've given it a few days for any response from my complaint, but nothing so here goes. I cane with a friend as it looks so nice and the menu sounds awesome. I was embarrassed as my meal was awful. I ordered the butter chicken with salad. The chicken was like leather- tough ajd well over cooked. The server asked if there was anything wrong with my meal, as I'd had 3 mouthfuls. I told him it was not nice and it was over cooked and I didn't like it. No apology, nothing. I also left feedback of the same thing. Again, nothing. No offer of a refund , nothing. This place has such potential but I'm afraid the service needs attention.

I've been meaning to write a review for this establishment considering I am overall happy and appreciative to have a restaurant like this.The environment is entirely nice with staff completely friendly and helpful. The vibe this place has is arguably one of the best in town and certainly the most memorable. It's so nice - I have already come back to this place a few times for breakfast. Whilst I still haven't had dinner here; myself and my mum have credited just how the food looks from other tables.I have provided a few pictures for you to digest how much I recommend this restaurant. I hope so much that the establishment survives considering it feels like many establishments do not in a town centre like ours.

2nd visit to Orleto at Basildon for me. The decor was funky and I loved it. Food was very reasonably priced and a large portion. Service was friendly and fast. Ordered from my table using the QR code. Lovely lunch - will definitely return - nice to have this little gem in the town.

Good to see new businesses in the struggling town centre but this place was dreadful.Put in my order for me and my partner then sat down and worked out we had been overcharged,after asking for the receipt i discovered i was charged for a Chicken Avocado Burger instead of my requested Halloumi Burger, told staff no apology at all was given.My partner then got her meal 20 minutes before mine and we had to ask for her diet coke 15 minutes after I received my coffee.Halloumi Burger finally arrived stone cold,everyone makes mistakes and don't wish to sound vindictive but to run a establishment like this and give no apology for such a service is beyond me.

Ordered 6 tapas dishes 5/6 where great, the highlight where the corn fritters wow they where nice, maple BBQ wings where good but very sweet too sweet for me. The potato dish was heavenly light an fluffy. The only pause on the greatness was the beef quesadillas where cold. The bar man was very friendly and made many recommendations, while answering my questions.

First time coming here, nice and relaxed atmosphere so I feel like I can take my time. Food and drink were served quick but still maintained good quality. I loved the range of continental food with something new to try with each visit. Only thing I would question are the prices which I thought were a little higher than I expected.
