Found what I was looking for. The clerk was super friendly. I could usually find product in grocery stores. They had told me it was a seasonal product, so I went to Cork n cleaver.

Pretty interesting restaurant, the aesthetic is a bit all over the place but the menu is clear cut surf and turf and they lean into their notable salad bar. First of all the salad bar is pretty legit, everything looked very fresh and they had a wide array of salad and salad adjacent goodies (jelly beans is a new one to me lol). I made a caesar and it was delicious, loved the dressing and the romaine.The not so good. The almond crusted walleye was too dry, definitely over cooked or sat under a lamp too long. It's served with tartar sauce but even that couldn't revive it.The salmon was really well prepared and they ask you if your prefer it more done than their standard medium. I also really enjoyed the black and blue flavor.The sea bass was phenomenal, perfectly cooked. It was buttery but flakey and the bread crumb crust was light and delicious. The standout entree of the evening for our group.The pork chop tasted really good as well. It was cooked well and served with a nice sauce. I was a bit under whelmed by the sides here, the asparagus lacked seasoning and so did the brussel sprouts. A spoonful of butter would've gone a long way for these.For the price I expect better. Some of the food was great and some, mainly the sides, were very basic with no seasoning. Kind of perplexing.Our server was friendly enough and very knowledgeable about the menu.

Cork N' Cleaver is a nice option for dinner, however not a place I would go out of my way for. It was my first time there. It's been reccomended a lot and came with raving reviews, and I found it just mediocre. Our waitress wasn't the best- she seemed new and nervous, however, she took our plates that had bread on it- twice! I do appreiciate that almost every entree comes with soup or the salad bar, and the salad bar is one of the best parts of this resturaunt. It is very family friendly, so kids were running around the restaurant the whole night. Next time, we will definitely ask for the bar area. I ordered a prime rib- the cook was perfect but it lacked flavor or seasoning. My fiance got the coffee crusted ribeye, and that was great. Maybe it was just an off night- but I wasn't impressed

Brick walls with arches, open kitchen, fantastic salad bar! Service comes along the level of the pricing. My friend had the walleye he said this about it, it's got all kinds of textures and flavors with potatoes, brussel sprouts, and peppers. It's wonderful! We ordered off menu and got crab cakes dinner. I don't think I've ever had a baked crab cake before. It was a very interesting flavor. Definitely fresh crab and very good. Both dinners came with a salad bar and we added a $20 unlimited salad bar. It was more than we could eat for sure. The salad bar was everything I love about a salad bar. So fresh. We will definitely be back.

Old fashion higher end steak and seafood place that prices don't reflect how good it was. Average at best with high prices. I have been to others in similar class, and this doesn't impressed me. Sticker shock is what you get when you look at their menu cleaver. So I had the $20 salad bar and lobster bisque. Bisque had no lobster chunks. I didn't finish it or go back to the salad bar (average for a mid price place). I hope we eat somewhere else when we are back in Fort Wayne.

Good, not great...First time at Cork n' Clever, which is supposed to be considered a "Fort Wayne Original"... While, it was okay, it certainly wasn't worth $185. The restaurant is dated and had an 80s throwback vibe (80s elevator music literally playing in the background), but was clean and well kept. The service was good and prompt. As for the food, nothing to write home about... The crab cakes were okay, but nowhere close to the crab cakes at Ruth's Chris (and definitely not worth $18 for two puny crab cakes). The best part was the salad bar, which was awesome... It was very fresh and had many options. Our steaks were cooked very good to order (medium rare), but they were not seasoned well, if at all. We've never had to salt a steak at a steakhouse, but our steaks were bland and required it - Pretty disappointed with that.By and large, Cork n' Cleaver was alright... Not as good as Don Hall's Gas House and the food is grossly overpriced.

Good meats. Good salad bar but hard reach to the back row for shorter people. Great service.

Salad bar is delicious. One of my favorite in Fort Wayne. So many different options and toppings. The house made ranch is delicious. If you like caviar, it's on there too. The blackened shrimp is tasty. Can add salad bar to any entree for only like 5 dollars, totally worth it. I would pass on the cream of broccoli soup, it's not very good. Service was attentive. Environment in the bar is nice.
