    My husband went in for our Anniversary. I had the best Dirty Bleu martini made by Caroline! We enjoyed the Kobe Meatloaf and the Shrimp and Crab Bolognese. Both dishes were fantastic. We finished our meal with the Creme Brule which I highly recommend anytime! A+++

    Very good experience at Cork. Been here a few times in years prior, wasn’t as good as this time around. Must of been the clam special, Manhattans we ordered or the pork filet. Would recommend that! Service was very good, had all the things we needed & no unnecessary table visits or interruptions. Can tell the servers were experienced and not hovering. I’d recommend Cork for most any occasion as they have room upstairs and out back with covered igloos. We sat inside & felt comfortable.

    Nothing special. Food is just ok and the service tends to be slow. Went with friends and all felt the same. Nothing stood out, food nor service. For a high priced meal, you would have expected better food and service

    It was pretty good. The food was good, not terribly memorable. Three of us had a drink. Our designated had water. The bill came to $180, which I thought was pretty expensive. (2 of us had meatloaf).

    Food was delicious. It was cold in the room. A bit uncomfortable. Food took a bit long to arrive at the table.
