We enjoyed dinner at Cork & Cleaver for our anniversary. The salad bar is outstanding, with top quality ingredients—and even chilled salad plates! For appetizers, we ordered the cream of broccoli soup and the crab cakes. The soup was nothing special, but the crab cakes were excellent—definitely on our list to repeat! For entrees, my husband ordered the fish special on polenta and I ordered the 21 shrimp platter with 3 flavors of shrimp and the stuffed mushrooms. Dessert was chocolate cake. During previous visits, we have also enjoyed the generous serving of the chocolate mud pie! The service was excellent. Be sure to get reservations if you want to get a table, especially on a weekend!

The coffee crusted ribeye was perfect as usual. I took a coworker for the first time and they said it was just as good as we told him.

I Love🩷 this restaurant! I went here with me and my grandma for my birthday🎂 for lunch🍽 and this place was healthy, delicious, the staff and waitresses were amazing and extremely nice. Fancy✨️ place, I love the atmosphere, the cozy decorations, and how it's decorated inside. Beautiful. Plus, that the food was 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ the Salad 🥗 Bar was beautiful 😍🤩😍🤩 and that was cool because that is the only salad bar I've ever been to that had jelly beans. Plus, your staff is so sweet I got a free dessert of the ice cream🍰🍦🍨 cake / mud pie 🎂 for dessert. Delicious 😋 i must say. 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ overall everything.

Food and service great. Would like to see a bit bigger menu. Was looking for pasta to go with meat or fish. Bread was fresh and comes with cinnamon butter. Wait staff was awesome.

Prime rib (cooked perfect he loved it) beef wellington appetizer was good, the best lobster i have had(a perfect crisp on top) sweet potato good, mud pie good, the salad bar was a bonus and had some kind of pasta dish that i sware had crack in it. It was sooo good. The jelly beans were delicious especially with my cork martini. The beer was cold. The wheat bread was amaxing. Tricia was perfect. It was cozy near the fireplace. Everyone seemed happy ,even the employees 😄. The menu was cute but would much rather have a paper menu that we don't have to share.

Went the other night, food was amazing. The fillet I ordered was cooked to medium rare perfection. Highly recommend trying the salad bar as well, so many options! Server was very friendly in accommodating! In my opinion worth the price especially for special occasions!

Best steak and lobster ever! 😋 Sidney was a very pleasant and attentive waitress. Top notch!!!! And of course I can't leave out the fabulous mud pie.

For starters they put us in a room with a cracked ceiling and exposed sky, and it was -frigid-. For reference today it was 7°f outside. Shivering through the entire dinner(and we were dressed for the weather!) Food was mediocre, NOT worth a $200 dinner for the two of us. Waitress was kind and attentive so no problem with her. But for how much it was and how cold it was we won’t be back. Really disappointed:(

This was my first experience at Cork ‘n Cleaver, so I really had no clue what to expect. Boy, was I disappointed. The menu is limited and dated, and is literally printed on a cleaver. It is an obnoxious and unnecessary gimmick. It weighs at least 5lbs, and I would have much rather had a paper menu or even a digital menu than this. I ordered a teriyaki filet, which arrived undercooked and without a trace of teriyaki. The mashed potatoes had chives in them, which was not an ingredient that was disclosed on the menu. My husband ordered an old fashioned, which arrived with what looked like a leftover orange slice. Given the prices on the menu, I would expect a place like this to know that the orange zest is the key garnishment here - not the entire rind. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate cake, which was clearly a pre-made dessert that is bought in and kept frozen until needed. For $16, that is unacceptable. As far as ambiance goes, it was loud, cold (every time the door opened we felt the draft hit us at our seats), and the staff kept awkwardly standing next to us chatting. I’ve never regretted a dining experience as much as this one.
