BarFly's Review of OBA!

A mainstay of the Pearl District's happy hour scene (4:00-6:30 daily), Oba! stands out from the crowd with a uniformly delicious menu of nuevo latino cuisine and a selection of fantastically fruity margaritas for just $3.75.

While the crowd may be a little less pretty than we'd hope, their coconut prawns (and staff) are frankly crave-worthy, and well-worth including in your evening's repertoire.

Go when you need someplace to take your slightly-less-than-hip family or coworkers: they'll manage to be both comfortable and awed by the Pearl District's urban ambiance, and you'll be well fed.

Over Kill

I was super excited to go to OBA for Happy Hour after I heard raves from all my friends. I was highly dissapointed. First off, our waitress was rude. She barely made eye contact and was hustling us through everything, and we were obviously there for the long haul of happy hour. Food is good, but small portions for big prices. It did have a fun atmosphere and it was good food though. But I will not be going back...

Speedy service

Checked out their happy hour. Trendy atmosphere, but casual clientele. Didn't feel out of place in jeans, sandals, and ragged t-shirt. Ample outdoor seating. The place was standing-room-only packed but our drinks and food arrived much faster than we expected. $3.75 Margaritas were strong and the chicken tacos tasty and plenty filling. Can't wait to go back and try the rest of the menu!

oh hells ya!

they have a pretty rockin happy hr. not sure what the hrs are during the week but on sundays i thinks it's like from 4-close. not too impressed by the burger. i asked for well, well done and it came still pink. not a fan. so be sure to make sure it's the way you want it. other than that the rest of the food is super and the icing on the cake is that the bartenders rock. arsenio is amazing and fun to talk to as well as the other guy that i can't remember his name but was at a party i was at. anyway, that's a whole different story. arsenio will knock your socks off. the music is good and it's just an all around good time. there's no smoking which is pleasurable until you want one and have to go outside, but seriously the place itself makes up for it. go there.
