    Second time here; first time was pretty decent. This time, the service was abysmal; had to ask the waiter if we could order appetizers. First round of drinks took 40 minutes to arrive. Then had to ask if we could go ahead and order our main course. Absolutely zero interest on the part of the waiter in providing any kind of service. We saw the very attendant bus staff way more than the waiter. The person delivering the food made some very strange comments, which was way off putting. Spent quite a bit of money here for food and drinks and left feeling like we’d never return. My recommendation would be to look elsewhere, at least until the quality of service gets better.

    I love the extremely varied menu! All the food we have had is excellent and beautifully presented. Good service, lovely cocktails. We were seated on the patio, which we were worried about, but we were comfortably warm.

    We love the Cork. However, this time our prime rib was sub par. It was coarse and dry. It certainly was not the rib we are used to at the Cork.

    Knowing that it is a busy time (Gem Show and Valentine), I don't feel we experienced any abnormal wait times or stress. The staff was attentive and relaxed and we had a great evening, meal and drinks were delicious! A Tucson tradition continues!

    It was a very busy night, but the outdoor patio dining with those heaters and the quietness. It was great ambience. The service was a little slow, but our server was amazing. Her name is daily and she was very good at providing for our needs even when the bartender was slow with our drinks . The food was delicious

    This was our second experience at the Cork. We had an excellent meal on our first visit, but were stuck in the back room. On this occasion we had a much better table and ordered the special a 14 oz ribeye from a local rancher. The steak was extremely fatty and did not taste good. The service was very good. The restaurant was very busy and popular, I feel that this restaurant is just not our type of place. Good luck
