   Was a nice fun set up inside, mostly lounge type seating and casual tables. The music was absolutely bumping, it felt like a night club, maybe a little much for 11:30 A.M. It appeared there was only one server on the first floor, so service was rather slow, I felt bad for the lone server because he was forced to frantically move from table to table. We all ordered draft beer and the “wagyu” beef burgers. Beer took a while to come out and was warm, the food came out rather quickly but the burgers were far from wagyu, the patty actually tasted exactly like a BK whopper, so pretty disappointing, especially for the price and for the fact that you have to make a reservation to get in.

   Great food, service was not great. Waitress had no idea what was going on, what was available or who we were when we got up to ask for what we wanted to order. More training between kitchen and staff should be done.

   Booked for six. Waited 15 mins for waiter even though 2nd floor was pretty much empty when we arrived. Good came fast. I ordered the sliders got my daughter the primavera pasta and moms got the nachos cousin had the jambalaya and other cousin got a burger unk had the buffalo chicken sub I really disliked the jambalaya nachos need more meat and sliders didn’t come with any condiments a dipping sauce would’ve been perfect pasta was cool.

   Cork & Batter in Inglewood is an absolute gem! I decided to come back for a second time to try more of their delicious menu. From start to finish, my dining experience was incredible. For starters, the calamari was perfectly crispy, the lemon pepper wings were bursting with flavor, and the Birria beef steak gourmet street tacos were a standout. Each dish was fresh and delicious, setting the tone for an amazing meal. For the main course, the Fish & Chips were a delightful classic with crispy cod, dill tartar sauce, and waffle fries that hit the spot. The Atlantic Salmon was cooked to perfection, with a crispy skin and paired beautifully with the rich coconut curry, fragrant basmati rice, and a side of tender broccolini. I couldn’t leave without dessert, and the chocolate cake did not disappoint! It was rich, moist, and the perfect sweet ending to an outstanding meal. I paired my whole meal with the notorious margarita tree! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent. Cork & Batter has quickly become a favorite spot, and I can’t wait to return!

   The service was absolutely terrific. I definitely will return again. Every staff member that we encountered from the valet to the secruity to the manager at the front door to the waitresses greeted us and was very helpful and polite. The waitress gave great input on good choices of food, which we absolute loved and thanked her for suggestions. Everyone had a lovely attitude and was very helpful. Truly five stars is not enough when you add the ambience, service, great delicious food and drinks. I will most definitely be returning very soon!

   The food was great and I was delighted to see a well crafted vegan option on the menu. But the service was what won me over. I’ll definitely be back again. The bartender and waitress were top notch, prompt, pleasant and very attentive. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

   There was rain and the top Patio was closed so they needed to accommodate 106 folk in the other two levels of the place. They were 45 minutes late sitting for our reservation. There was zero compensation except for a glass of flat champagne. It would have been nice if they sent a message prior to arriving so we could make other arrangements. If I would have been 15 minutes late due to parking or traffic issues the policy is they cancel my reservation. I expect the same courtesy from them to communicate.

    The restaurant lost the rooftop due to the rain. The Staff did an excellent job getting people seated. The Host was very proactive in making announcements as to why the reservations were delayed. I was very impressed with how she managed the crowd.
