    We had a wonderful experience at The Cork Tucson. The food was excellent and the service was amazing. We were seated in the back of the restaurant so there wasn’t much noise. We will definitely be going back soon.

    Service was fantastic. We were seated close to the bar so it was a bit smokey due to I assume food grilling. It wasn’t terrible but just made our eyes irritated towards the end of the meal. But the food, service, everything else was fabulous maybe just ask to be seated away from the front part of the restaurant.

    Party four we had great food, my lamb chops were very flavorful and my wife's surf and turf was excellent though lobster was maybe overcooked, steak was to die for. Food could have been hotter, had to send back the baked potatoes for three of us. Prime rib and chicken was excellent as well..... Maybe understaffed as to why food came out piecemeal and was not hot. We would all go back, server was very professional and kind.

    Always a great pleasure to eat at Cork. No mystery why it has been in Tucson for long, and will remain as good. Great management.

    I grew up at the Cork. I've seen it go from The Cork and Cleaver to the Tucson Cork to Jonathan's Cork to now... Just the Cork. The new owners, Glenn and Sally, are doing an amazing job of refreshing the entire menu with new items like kangaroo!... but keeping many of the staples the same. They should keep the Baseball Teriyaki for eternity which is what I had and it was amazing. Or bring it back as a special from time to time. Never skip the mud pie for dessert.
