Great dinner with friends. It's a very busy restaurant and the service was very good.

The service is impeccable, it was perfect. The atmosphere is sublime. The backlit menus are very nice touch. My ribeye was cooked perfectly, my mother's cioppino was perfect and without question. Talk about a diamond in the rough that is not rough whatsoever.
The cork table has a beautiful event separate dining room and table usually seating 20. Worth any penny and then some. We will be back.

We came for our Anniversary, the service was excellent and the food delicious. The scallops were a bit small for the cost, but we enjoyed every dish.

Food was ok. Nothing special. A bit overpriced for what it is. Skip the cowboy ribeye, sounds better than it is. Duck was good. Service was slow but friendly. Credit Card surcharge on a $300+ meal feels a bit excessive. No one is carrying that kind of cash these days.

Service was excellent . The steak wasn't seasoned and really had no flavor. The wedge salad was excellent. Great place for special dinner. Service can't be beat.
The positive: Meals were outstanding. Our party of four was very happy with our choices -short ribs, salmon and scallops. Salads were tasty. The negative: Our server, over anxious, failed to tell us about the specials, got the wrong occasion we were celebrating. We were seated near the bar, which was okay, (but for a nicer atmosphere, the main dining room would desirable). Since we were in the bar area, we could see football was on the TV. Another wait staff blocked our view by standing in front of our table multiple times after we asked him not to. Clearly he was interested in the game.
We come here again and again. Jose was our server, excellent all the way through . Salads are the best in the area, love the half portion. Entrees are all outstanding. Potato stack to share for table, best scalloped potatoes ever! Highly recommend
We had been considering this restaurant for a few years, but never went because it was a bit of a drive. We finally went an had a wonderful meal with great service. Kind of like an old style fine dining experience. Will definitely return, worth the 45 minute drive!
We got asparagus soup and I was so amazed at how good it was! I would love the recipe! I’m across the country !!

This was our 2nd time there but it did not disappoint. The food is wonderful and the service is meticulous. It is a great restaurant that is casual elegance and more upscale than many others.
Service was horrible. Did not bring all the salads out together, then one of the dinners was 10 to 15 minutes behind all the others. We have been there many times and enjoyed. Hoping this is just an off night
The food and presentation were excellent. The only complaint I have is with the service. I assumed the waitress was in training. The reason I use waitress was that she introduced herself, took the food and beverage orders at the same time and never saw her again until we finished dinner and she came back to ask if we wanted dessert. The food and beverages were served my others. I mentioned training. The menus were never removed from the table so I eventually moved them to an empty seat. After she took our food order I happened to ask if there were any specials, which of course there were. we ordered an extra salad which would not have happened if we hadn't asked. Loss of revenue to the establishment.
The experience at cork tree was good but nothing outstanding. The decor and design of the restaurant was very nice. Service was adequate and the server was not very attentive. In this type of restaurant you want more attention to detail. Food was good but again not outstanding. Duck was overcooked and tough. Risotto with the chicken was mediocre. And the short ribs were fatty. Salads were good. With being local and wanting to find new restaurants, this was not one of them. We were all disappointed.
3 out of 6 in our group had the filet and all said it was excellent! Pear salad, beet salad and lobster stack were all delicious - fresh and light and yummy!
