    The service was excellent. Skyler and the staff did a great job and didn’t rush us. Love the grilled romaine salad!

    My first Tucson visit…so this may be the norm… Establishment was clean and felt like a step back in time to a dark 70’s or 80’s Steakhouse (not a bad thing). Quality for the value was good. Server was attentive but a bit rushing. We held the table for too long but told the server we would make things right. They have a HARD close at 10pm during the week. Manager politely told us it was time to go while the staff was at the bar (we thought they were customers). We scheduled an uber and walked out. Manager closed and Chained locked the outer gate…and closed and locked the doors. We waited outside for 5-10 minutes for Uber wondering what the heck was going on. Kinda felt like we were in a scene from Breaking Bad. Suggestion for manager…don’t just dump customers on the curb and lock the door behind them.

    This was my first visit to The Cork and it was great. My fish was just as good as the frozen packaged ones and the other food was very good. The service was excellent and definitely worth the higher tip. It was busy on a Wednesday night and this is the place to go to celebrate something with a nice meal. We would definitely return!

    Not a big reviewee however, food lacked flavor (Grilled ribeye with Tiger Shrimp and chimchurri $85) wasn’t that great, I feel like I could’ve produced the same, if not better at home. Bourbon prices not bad. Server was slow. Took an extra 30-45 mins just waiting to clear the check. Also whoever was filling waters was coming out every few minutes it seemed to be too much attention in areas that didn’t have opportunity. Maybe the happy hour is where the attention is, otherwise pretty mediocre with very high prices. This place should be a little more humble when it comes to prices on the quality of food you receive

    We went here for a Birthday celebration. Our server was outstanding. I ordered the mushroom buttons with the petite filet. Both were awesome. My husband ordered the crab cake appetizer and then the shrimp and lobster pasta. He loved his meal too. We were very impressed with this restaurant.

    Nice ambiance and friendly staff. Food is outstanding. Wine is good, but wine fridge will help keep red wine temperature right

    The food was great and the service attentive. It was our 40th anniversary and I put it on the reservation notes but no one acknowledged it until I mentioned it as we were paying the bill. Disappointing. I went to the ladies bathroom as we were leaving and it smelled like sewage. Not a nice experience.
