Fourk Kitchen - Folsom

It's a four-course meal, but the portions are very small. Fortunately, we ordered an appetizer, or we would have left hungry. Someone recommended this place to us, comparing it to The Kitchen. It's not like The Kitchen at all. The presentation was subpar--two ribs on a plate with some maple beans and coleslaw. The beans tasted like they came from a can. The only highlight was the flank steak on crostini. The ribs tasted like it was steamed and not smoked. Maybe it was this month menu, but was not happy with the food selection.The mozzarella salad with sliced peach and glazed balsamic was okay but not very impressive, lacking much effort. The apple pie and ice cream were also just okay, with nothing particularly noteworthy. The service was good, but the food selection and portion was not impressive.

We came to Fourk to celebrate my girlfriends 25th birthday. When we walked in we were greeted by the spectacular waitstaff, Liz and Kim and were shown to our table. They had a specially marked table for us, and treated us like old friends. During the meal they surprised my girlfriend with some excellent goodies which really made the whole experience. I will be back tomorrow night, and every night thereafter. (Also every course was bitchin)

Phenomenal dining experience. great menu selection. Can't wait to go back. Highly recommend.

The food was great. You were able to pick an appetizer if you wanted. We were so full after all the courses. They paired food with wine if you desired. We had a great time and will go again.

I will start off by saying the experience was great. And the staff especially the Manger were extremely professional and welcoming. However, the food could have been a lot better. I see the potential in it but tonight was a bit rough. The "happy hour" before the start of the dining experience was fine. We started off with a small pour of wine, which was great. We did have to ask our server what it was cause he didn't explain it at all. We also tried the charcuterie board and just realized, tonight, what one of my new pet peeves is... when the server explains absolutely nothing about the board I am going to eat. What cheese is this? Is this ham or bologna? Oh, there's nuts here and what is that a cranberry jam? A figure it out for yourself board, nice!The sangria, though, was fantastic, a little thick and not sure what made it a smoothie like texture, but it was good. Our salad came which was fine. The lobster bisk I was really looking forward to, but it was at best luke warm and had random spots of almost ice cold. I just imagined I was eating gazpacho. The deconstructed beef wellington was okay. Pretty rare but I was okay with it but the lack of flavor was the issue. I did see the server bring out salt and pepper to another table which I should've asked for as well.The peppermint cheese cake was just okay as well. When the cook comes out to tell you about the meals and says that he just melted candy canes on top of the cheese cake, well it takes away from the mystery of how the "sausage is made."Over all meh, especially for dishing out $100 per person. If another dish sounds good we might try again. I, however, will look somewhere else first.

Fourk Folsom is a fun, unique dinning experience! Service & food are impeccable! 4 courses of deliciousnesses paired with exceptional wines! Check out their website to find out more information about this fantastic culinary experience and book your reservation! You won't regret it!!

We were so excited to go to Fourk Folsom. We were there on Saturday night 3/23. The manager and other server are excellent, but we were really disappointed with the food. The salad was homemade mozzarella pearls, cherry tomato halves with romaine (?) lettuce and a balsamic glaze. The cheese and tomatoes were adequate, but the lettuce was shredded and not crisp (think of bagged shredded iceberg) and the entire salad was overdressed with the glaze. The cream of asparagus soup had a good flavor but was served lukewarm. The main course was bolognese over spaghetti with homemade feta. Pasta was cooked properly, though the whole dish was served lukewarm. The dish wasn't warm enough to allow us to incorporate the ice-cold feta allowing it to melt properly. The key lime pie for dessert was a little sweet and drenched in whipped cream and hard toasted coconut. Our wine pairing was good and always served with the appropriate course. Fourk Folsom..we really wanted to like you..we may give you another chance, but I think the back of the house needs help.

I've been familiar with Fourk for a while and I was happy to find out that this Folsom location was open, since it is a lot closer for us. I was really excited for our reservation last night.I'll start off by saying that I enjoyed our evening. It's a small place with just one seating, and we arrived a little early for happy hour. We sat at the bar which was comfortable and I loved having a front row seat. I also love the concept of the four course monthly dinner, in a more casual environment. The staff were all friendly and fun. Our night started off well with our happy hour charcuterie plate. We loved the warm flat bread instead of the usual dry crackers, and the cheese, meats and honey were good. They have a good selection of wines by the glass and beers. But the main event, the four course tasting menu, was just not that great. My husband liked the salad, but to me it felt like it tasted like it had been sitting in a cooler for hours. The soup was a chicken pozole, something I like, but I could barely find the hominy.The main course was a sous vide angus beef burger, which my husband ate because I don't eat beef. Now I am a fan of sous vide cooking, but why would you do that to a burger? It was well done. The bun, mushrooms, onions and bacon jam were all nice, but it seems weird to not have a freshly cooked burger. Lucky for me I had an impossible burger which I am guessing they must have made separately. We did enjoy the cheesecake and the raspberry sauce. Here the sous vide seemed to work well. They have two wine pairings available, a regular and reserve, and we shared a reserve pairing, primarily because we wanted the port at the end. The wines were fine, but I'm not sure it was worth the upgrade. I kind of wish we just ordered glasses of port separately and stuck to wine by the glass.We enjoyed ourselves, but for the price, we just didn't think the food lived up to the experience.

Had dinner at Fourk tonight. It was fabulous, as always. I would highly recommend making a reservation if you haven't been before. Great food, service, and a casual atmosphere.

Unusual dining experience that was both fun and delicious. Excellent service and ambiance. Recommend arriving early for cocktails and best seating options but any table is fine.
