    Been coming here for years - once a month something has changed it seems - steak small and burnt you usually can tell when they don’t put how large in ounces the steak will be great bread and butter but go back I think the cost cutting due to inflation is going to impact your quality and reputation. Mac and cheese disgusting- appetizers need revamped - how do you burn potatoes and bring them out? Great drinks however

    We were seated upstairs with only a few other tables. The ceiling was extremely low. Cocktails were over priced and awful. Never finished them. Started with bread and gnocchi. Both were dry and didn’t have much flavor. Ordered a steak medium rare. It was completely charred on the outside and raw on the inside. Mac n Cheese was not warm, very bland. Unfortunately we will not be returning or recommend this restaurnt.

    We LOVE Cork & Cow, and as always, our service and table request was impeccable. But, we found the steaks to be not as good as they usually are. I would still highly recommend them for the best place to get a steak.

    Cork and cow never disappoints us! Always great service, perfection every time! I had the SCALLOP & SHRIMP GNOCCHI. Black Truffle, Roasted Broccolini, Malted Cream, Crispy Potatoes, and Shaved Button Mushrooms. Best seafood dish I’ve had in a very long time. My husband usually gets the Prime New York Steak but wanted to try something different. He chose the IBERICO PORK SECRETO. Manchego Risotto, Bacon-Apple Salad, with a Sherry Gastrique. It was delicious as well!

    Carrie was a great waitress. Attentive, gave great feedback, and enjoyed our being there. Only feedback is the Gorgonzola horseradish steak accompaniment lacked the horseradish punch I expected. Never the less, the creamy Gorgonzola and salty brine made the NY strip even more special. Highly underrated ice cream flavor- cream cheese. It was a great match for the pear crisp. Can’t wait to come back and try more!
