I highly recommend dining here. The staff was delightful and the atmosphere is just as nice! You can dine indoors or on the back patio if you prefer. Cork has a fresh, unique menu with delicious offerings. Everything we ordered was amazing! I will absolutely be a return customer!

My pork chop very overcooked while others in party ordered steaks that basically came out raw. Overpriced and not very good at all. Service was good

My boyfriend found this place on accident and it was such a happy accident! Last minute we were able to rent a dome and it was a wonderful experience. The dome was lit, decorated and heated. Our sever, Chloe, was very sweet and helpful. The drinks and food were amazing. We will definitely be returning!

Wow, couldn't ask for better service. Was in town for a concert. Had a reservation for 6: 30, greeted right at the door and asked if we had reservation or not. After we were seated waiter came right over asked if we needed drinks. When the drinks came back, he asked if we were in town for the concert? We said yes, he gave some suggestions on what to stay away from ordering so we could make it on time to the show. Everything from the appetizers to the entrees was great, portions were big. Nice bar and good atmosphere.

Too overpriced and takes too long to serve. I waited so long for the food and it wasn’t worth it.

I took my parents here for their anniversary. I researched restaurants for what felt like hours because they are VERY picky. Chose Cork based on a recommendation from a friend. THEY DID NOT DISAPPOINT. The food was amazing. The portions are enormous and the service was wonderful. Our server Sarah was on point! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. My husband and I are big foodies, we enjoy going out but are rarely this satisfied. Worth every penny. We will be back!

Caitlin was absolutely amazing! She was very helpful with the menu, as I’m kinda picky. She gave great recommendations & even better service. We had a delicious dinner and dessert. We were very happy with our first visit to Cork. If you’re thinking about trying this restaurant, you won’t be disappointed.

I have had several incredible meals and experiences time and time again from this space! I couldn’t recommend it any more. Every meal I have ordered has been delectable and the service has been astronomical. If you’re visiting in the cooler months, be sure to opt for the cozy ambience of the igloo! Phil is far and away the best fixture of the establishment, ask for him! Deanna is such a sweetie too, she’ll take great care of you. Absolutely worth a visit and will become a fast favorite.

Always a good experience at Cork. Food and drinks are excellent. Huge fan of the red pepper vinaigrette salad dressing.

Food was served similar to a kfc bowl all in a pile on the plate not a good look for a higher end restaurant with meal presentation. I won’t go back

Had a reservation for 6: 30 was told it would be a 30-40 min. Wait for a table upstairs unless we wanted to sit in the tent. We were hungry and said ok to the tent, HUGE MISTAKE! This tent is on top of their old parking lot! It was freezing, our feet were so cold from the blacktop, they had heat lamps that helped like 10%. Got a wilted spring mix salad, no salt or pepper on the tables, no candles either for any type of atmosphere. Got our dinners at 8: 30, terrible for a fine dining restaurant! Ordered 1 coffee and dessert, server brought cream but had to make a second trip for sugar ‍️ which by then my coffee wasn't hot! Total GREED of ownership by over booking and having customers sit in a tent outside in Feb. In 20° temp. For a fine dining experience! This was our 2nd time here, 1st experience was terrible and thought we'd give them a second chance. BIG BIG MISTAKE! I WOULD DEFINITELY NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT TO ANYONE! OH, AND LISTENED TO LOUD ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC FOR DINNER! ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE DINING EXPERIENCE!

I took my daughter here for a late "daddy-daughter" Valentines date.we really loved the igloo experience. Chloe was our waitress and her personality was amazing. The food was great as well as the service. I recommend giving it a try.

Post that they had issues with the building and were closed temporarily. We called to make sure our valentine's day reservation was still good and was told we were good to go. Was later called (the day before valentine's day) and was told they they had to cancel our reservation and offered a different place we could eat, claiming it was nice and a "sister store". I feel they waited last minute in hopes we would accept the offer since obviously we weren't going to get any other reservation this late. Was not called back as told and most likely will never visit this place or their "sister" locations. Thanks for a ruined valentine's day with my wife.

Mardi gras, disappointed.
No decor in or outside the venu.
No decor on tables.
No place cards of the features.
Definitely not like there other events.
Our server was very nice.

Yes, it’s true! Best food, especially the appetizer, jumbo shrimp with that fantastic sauce. We had that for an appetizer to share. For an entree, I had a shrimp dish with lo mein noodles and lots of vegetables. It was so delicious! Hubby had chicken risotto. It was not bad, but my noodle dish was better. The jumbo shrimp appetizer was the best! The sauce was so delicious that we had to get some bread to dip in it. Keep the Chef! Highly recommended!

One of the worst managed places in our area. And when you leave a bad review like this, they lose your families reservation. How convenient. We sat for three hours waiting for dinner that finally came at 915 pm. Not bad for a 6 o’clock reservation. Never again.

Four of us had dinner last night in one of the igloos. The igloo was cozy and intimate - we even streamed our music on the hanging Bluetooth speaker. The cocktails were yummy and the food was amazing! Our apps were meatballs, chicken empanadas and spring rolls - all incredibly delicious. Our entrees were also delicious and the portions were very generous. The best part of the evening, though, was the service. Deanna took such good care of us. She's everything a good server should be, and she's incredibly funny. We laughed a lot last night and we can't wait to go back!
