    Food was very good. Halibut was superb! Disappointed that bread is now not complimentary. Sautéed mushrooms have changed since the new owners took over but overall still a good place for a special meal.

    Been eating here for 20 years, and food has always been excellent; except last night. Will start by saying the prime rib appetizer was the best part of our dinner. It hinted that my ribeye special would be equally as tasty, but sadly it wasn’t. It was ok, but I’ve had far better beef at this place. The worst part was the roasted duck. For the price we expected much more than two overcooked drumsticks drowned in sauce. They were mostly skin and bone with a few chewy bites, but no breast or thigh meat. When the server asked how everything was tasting, we quietly complained about the duck. She said she would tell the chef. The single Mud Pie dessert we shared was above average. When the check came we were charged full price for the lame duck, but was comped the dessert. Giving 3 stars for the appetizer and dessert.

    My husband had the bison and loved it. I had the petite filet and also loved mine. Allison our waitress was very attentive and friendly. It was a nice, relaxing dinner. Will definitely return the next time we are in town.

    The food was very good so was the table service. However, we were not seated until 25 minutes after our reservation time.

    We had a great time at the cork! The service was awesome and the food was even better! We both got the surf and turf for dinner and it was incredible. We will definitely be back soon and recommend this to all of our family and friends!

    We have rave reviews for the food and atmosphere, but wish our request to dine in the room with the fireplace could've been granted.

    Had a wonderful dining experience at The Cork! They had a great selection of cocktails. The piñata and the old fashioned were great. The menu had something for everyone. We had the filet mignon and the grilled kangaroo, both were cooked to perfection! Super excited to try their sister restaurant.

    Very good dinner. Service was a bit disjointed, but no hurry for a pleasant dinner. Just more time to enjoy the wine. Big positive, our server didn’t constantly come over and try to pour more wine. Left the wine pouring to me. Menu variety is terrific. If we lived in Tucson we’d be there frequently.
