    Was excited to try this tapas restaurant as menu looked great. Food turned out to be ok at best with the gnocchis the major disappointment due to way too heavy sage flavor. Charcuterie and egg rolls were good. Wine list was way short on Spanish offerings and they were out of a couple of offerings on their flights. Service was great and building it was located in was really cool.

    I had a reservation for 8 and our table was all set up perfectly when we arrived. The server was very attentive, the atmosphere was comfortable, nice background music playing, then a singer started with great vocals. The food was on point as well as the wine list!

    Service was excellent, but unfortunately the food was just not good. The descriptions of the food sounded so good and everything had the potential to be great, and the portions were decent, but nothing was executed well. The mushrooms were cold and the smoky flavor was overpowering, the calamari was cold and the breading was wet and fell off the calamari rings, the mussels were undercooked and lacked flavor, the confit chicken wings were too sweet and were overcooked, the squash gnocchi were incredibly salty and were mushy and gummy. We had been wanting to try this place for a long time too, so we were really disappointed. The restaurant was nearly empty at prime time on a Saturday, so maybe that’s a reflection of the food quality, or could’ve been an off night.

    Sat at the bar upstairs that has views of the waterfront of New Bedford and the ocean. The bartender was knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The food was superb. I highly recommend this restaurant.

    Although I have lived in the area for years, this was the first time going to Cork. The waiter was friendly, professional, and attentive. We had two entrees, the lamb and the scallops. Both were cooked perfectly. We did not leave a morsel on the plate. We also tried a new wine that is now our favorite. We will definately be going back soon. Top notch ambiance, service, and food.
