   The appetizers were the star of the meal. Best lamb I've ever had. However the $80 dry aged ribeye was pretty chewy for the cut. It was delicious, but I couldn't chew about 1/5 of the steak.

   I booked this reservation a month in advance and noted on the booking that it was our anniversary. We got there almost 10 minutes early and were willing to wait. My husband sweetly, proudly announced to the 2 hostesses that it was our anniversary, to which they didn’t respond at all. We got seated at arguably the worst table. It was in the middle of the room, the last table on the walk to the bathrooms. We could see the women lined up to use the restroom, and everyone had to walk around or by our table to get to the bathrooms. My husband mentioned this and again our anniversary as we were being seated, and no change in table was offered. There were open tables on the banquet side and the window side. A large party was later seated at 3 different tables - 2 by the windows and 1 at the banquet. They then walked by our table all evening to socialize with each other. Why weren’t they seated together and us put at a table on the side? Our waiter was fine, the food was amazing. But the seating and lack of response to our anniversary left a “bad taste” so to speak. We weren’t looking for anything free. But literally no response to my husband’s statements of it being our anniversary? It was borderline uncomfortable. We have always recommend Cork & Cow to people looking for a nice, non-chain date night restaurant. After spending about $300 for this experience, I’m not sure we’ll be going back or recommending it anymore.

   Our food was excellent! Steaks were cooked perfectly and the crème brûlée did not disappoint! Our server was fantastic and made the evening fun!

   Our server was excellent. We were seated upstairs and it was so loud to where I could not hear the other person I was dining with. Our whipped feta was amazing. My steak was cooked well. However, my boyfriend’s steak was so very salty. He also asked for well done and it was medium rare. Our shrimp were also overpoweringly salty.

    Every time we walk into Cork & Cow, we know it won’t disappoint. The ambience is warm, hip and trendy. Barry provided outstanding service—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. His recommendations were spot-on, and he made sure every detail of our experience was seamless. The highlight of the meal last time was the Tomahawk and last night was the Ribeye steak, both times cooked to absolute perfection—tender, flavorful, and expertly prepared. Paired with an excellent selection of wine, every bite was a delight. Cork & Cow delivers on all fronts—top-notch service, exquisite food, a fantastic wine selection, and a wonderful atmosphere. We can’t wait to return! Highly recommended for any night out or a special occasion as well. We always leave full and happy!
