    The food here was absolutely delicious!!! And the service was great. I went here before on Mother’s Day and it was a disaster but I gave them grace because that’s a very busy day and the owner did a wonderful job of accommodating us for the inconvenience. Glad I tried them out again. It was less people and it was a great dining experience. The wine selections are great as well and they ship to other states in case you’re from out of town and want to take some bottles with you!

    All the food was delicious but the sides are big and good for sharing so we were kind of disappointed that they told us to all get a main and a side when we could have split 2-3 different sides and literally share them amongst 6 people. Very friendly staff and the ricotta dish was especially good.

    If you're looking for a comforting mini getaway dining experience, The Cork kitchen is a must. Scenery overlooking beautiful stream and vineyards along with abundance of maple trees make the overall experience soothing and relaxing. The overall menu is delicately managed as it is subtle in variety. The ambiance is great, it's rather delicate noise levels make the dining experience comforting but loud enough to feel at ease. Make a visit and enjoy. Totally worth it.
