Corks

Cozy and romantic restaurant with delicious, authentic Italian food! This is a small, intimate spot with candles on the tables. We had the best gnocchi with spinach inside in a gorgonzola sauce, and a fettuccine in a duck rague. Both were perfect! The waiter didn't hover or make us feel rushed. Reasonably priced. Each of our dishes was $25 for dinner and weren't too big nor too small. Highly recommend if you're looking for authentic Italian food in a cozy environment!

I've only been to Italy once and I've been thinking about how godlike the food is ever since. And eating here, literally, flooded my brain of memories that I've been chasing for. The food is very rich in authenticity and crafted with such care. I recommend the fried zucchini antipasta (appetizer). So good, and it comes with sweet red bell peppers with like cheese inside it. Oh my lanta. Y'all might get triggered about the wait for the food but depending what you want takes time to make. So wait because it's worth it. The vibe at least we went was low key. My wife and I love going to Bella Trattoria, but we now found another Italian spot where the vibe is more calm. It's like a quiet coffee shop vibe where you go to have a nice glass of wine and eat good pasta after a long hard day/week at work. I got the vodka cheese pasta I forgot the name and puttin disrespect on the name but it wen very well with the red wine, I think the Lincongiello. Something like that. Will definitely be back.

This is as close as I will get to eating authentic Italian food in Italy someday. Corks will do for now! This is now my go-to spot for a nice glass of wine, yummy al dente pasta, and cozy vibes. Summary for those who dislike long reviews: Food: 10/10 rating *Authentic al dente pasta, yummy fresh appetizers, simple menuService: 10/10 rating *Kind staff ,the owner seems passionate about Corks and what they serveAmbiance: 8/10 rating *Very small and cozy, tables are small Parking: 3/10 rating *Parking is pretty bad. A mixture of people going out for nightlife and residents back home after work.Favorites to order: Prosciutto e Burrata Prosciutto e Vodka Gorgonzola Glera Prosecco I truly appreciate how simple the menu selection is. Appetizers primarily consist of salads and, a variety of cheeses to taste. There are probably 2 items within the apps that are not salad or cheese boards. The main course is solely pasta. So, if you are wanting to eat something aside from pasta, then Cork's may not be the place for that. I believe they prioritize reservations but do take walk in's.

Authentic Italian cuisine. Giuseppe's establishment offers the best you can hope for this side of the Atlantic. From the Caprese to the Gnocci, each dish is crafted with the freshest ingredients and made with care as if you were family. Excellent wine selection and of course house made desserts. If you've been to Italy this will bring you right back. If you've never been-this is your chance to have the culinary experience that you hear people talk about after having visited.

The food is delicious and so fresh. I got the gnocchi and the burrata & prosciutto appetizer. The space is very small and intimate; but don't worry, it's not overly hot. It can be a little claustrophobic initially. Our dishes took a long time to get to the table but it is worth the wait.

Really cute and cozy wine bar/restaurant. Stopped by here a few nights ago when it was pouring outside, and my friend and I were the first two people there for dinner. We were lucky to snag the cozy window nook seats.We ordered the prosciutto and burrata app, tagliatelle al cinghiale and prosciutto e vodka. Everything was delicious, and I think it's the best pasta I've had in the city so far. We also ordered desserts, the panna cotta and tiramisu. The tiramisu was a bit more frozen than expected and the panna cotta had a chocolate syrup instead of the advertised cherry sauce. But I prefer chocolate to cherry anyways, so that was fine with me. Would love to come back on a non rainy day to enjoy more pasta!

Its like being back in Italy! My new favorite. The vibe is so low key, and the food is spectacular. Highly recommend..

This place feels a little bit like a Twilight Zone. Just something about the service and the menus was a little off.We did get a great table right by the window. We received 2 menus that had about 85% overlap of VERY similar dishes. When we asked about it - the guy wasn't very clear, but kinda said the one menu was a newer version and we could order off the new one - OR the old one (which had a few extra dishes) - That they were kinda working on fixing and creating an even newer menu to include everything. But even so, the entrees on both that kinda sounded the same didn't have the same description (leaving out important facts, like a beet flavored pasta on one for instance). It took a bit to get the real story from the server...just weird, give me one menu with everything offered (and maybe an extra with only specials)We ordered the Cesar salad to split - it came in a bowl, but he gave us TEENY little bread plates to each get out halves on there. WAY too small a plate - it was small for a bread plate. Anyway the salad was okay - a but under-dressed.My man and I each got a pasta, I got the one with the prosciutto and he got the one with the tellegio cheese. We each had bites of each others, and you know what was the best? It was mixing a bite of each together.I tell you this too - the service was S-L-O-W. I didn't mind it one bit, but if you like to "giddy-up" with ordering and being served, this is NOT the place to go.I am happy I tried this place, but prefer a place like Jackson Fillmore for my local neighborhood pasta needs.

I've been meaning to check out Corks for a while and finally got around to going on my birthday this year. It was perfect! The ambiance was lovely and cozy, the pasta was perfect, the wine was delicious. There were candles on the tables and the music wasn't too loud so you could hear each other fine. We ordered the burrata and prosciutto appetizer and would order again. The gnocchi was the star of the night and we will come back just for that. The orecchiette was also really good and I would order again but will probably try some of the other pastas first. And we definitely plan to be back sooner rather than later to try them all! :)

Great neighborhood spot! Definitely will go again. The food is delicious, generous portions.
