The food here is hands down delicious!!! I was honestly shocked because for a sports bar, the chefs are really throwing it down. From the shrimp pasta (still dreaming about it) to their jambalaya to their green goddess salad, spicy tuna crispy rice, and even the shishito peppers! Everything was absolutely delicious. For drinks I highly recommend their lavender martini! dangerously good! The service here started off strong with a friendly welcome when we came in but we felt a bit neglected once we got upstairs to our table. Luckily we ordered fairly quickly and food came out fast, but almost felt like a bother. Also need to double check the hours because upstairs seemed to close up pretty early around 7:30-8pm on a Tuesday. I'm sure because there was a game at intuit dome, they responded to that so giving benefit of the doubt there. I still plan to come back with friends because it is super cute and the food is too good. There is valet parking which was super convenient especially with the busyness of the game.

Updated review: Visited again today as we normally do if we’re in the area for an event. The service was super disappointing. The guy at the front (I always forget to ask his name) is always super nice to us, so I do want to shout him out. But after we were seated, we pretty much were ignored for a good 15 minutes. No server came by to let us know they’d be helping us at all. We just sat there waiting. Finally a server came over, introduced herself, and said she’d be back with water for the table. She came back with water and took our orders. Our food came out and was brought out by the someone from the kitchen (who was very nice) and we pretty much didn’t see our server again until she brought the check, not even to refill water. I was still eating when she brought the check and she proceeded to start taking plates from the table. She took my plate while I still had a taco in my hand… LOL my dad handed me a napkin to put my taco on… on the bright side the shrimp tacos were tasty. Original post: This review is LONG overdue. My bf and I have this place a try before the Cage the Elephant concert a couple months ago. Valet guys were super nice. We were seated downstairs and the food was AMAZING. We had a great dinner and we were curious about how the rooftop dining area looked. We asked our waiter about it and unfortunately because it was a Sunday evening they close the upper levels when it’s slow, totally understandable! We knew we’d come back anyways. But, the chef (chef Mike) happened to be walking by and overheard and personally walked us up and showed us the rooftop. It was gorgeous. He definitely did not have to do that for us, but he went out of his way to make sure we had a great first experience at the restaurant. We’ve been back a handful of times since then. The service has always been great. This last time we went, this past weekend, we took a larger party and Bee was amazing with us. She was super patient with my family (we can be loud) but she always came around to make sure we were good and if we needed anything. We look forward to coming back soon.

If you’re looking for a great spot right by Sofi Stadium, this is a must! We ordered a variety of dishes to share: • Charred Corn “Rib” with dynamite aioli, cotija, and Tajin — such a fun twist on street corn! • Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice — hands down my favorite! The coconut crispy rice with avocado and serrano chili paired so well with the sweet soy reduction. • Asian Salad — refreshing and packed with flavor and texture. Loved the sesame dressing and crispy wontons. • Steak Taco — topped with serrano aioli, spicy salsa, cotija, and guac — so good! • Blackened Salmon — another favorite! Perfectly cooked with crispy skin, served with dirty rice and a light coconut salad. Also, do not skip the Patton Tree — a super cute tequila cocktail tree with 4 different drinks. It’s a must for photos and flavor! Service was attentive and friendly, and the overall vibes are beautiful — perfect for a date or big groups. Valet parking is $15, but free Monday to Thursday before 2 PM!

Great experience! We stopped in on the last day of our 4 day trip, and Milan was such a beautiful soul. She was very pleasant throughout our entire visit. Even though she was helping others, she continued to check on us with a smile. I had the tacos, which were really tasty. Others in my party had a ceaser salad, burger, and fish and chips. Everyone said the food was good. I think the only option for parking is valet but I also think it's free only tips are needed.

Atmosphere was inviting and staff was very friendly. Our sever was amazing, and very attentive. The food was delicious and the cocktails were on point. We will definitely be going back.

Cork & Batter did not disappoint!!!! Great vibes, great food & drink, great service! I'm so happy to have supported this local establishment. We came for lunch recently and had a great meal and a wonderful time. The food was on point and service never lacked. We will be back again soon.

Stopped in for a quick lunch and drinks. To my surprise everything was very good and hot. The drinks were good, and our hostess/server, Milan F, was great .

Cork & Batter is a solid spot near Sofi Stadium, perfect for casual dining with good vibes. Some reviews mention bad service, but personally, I had a good experience! The staff was friendly, and while the service was a bit slower when large brunch groups rolled in, it was still manageable. As for the food, I’ve seen mixed opinions—some say it’s mediocre, but honestly? The portions were generous and great for sharing! My friend and I split a few dishes, and it was just the right amount. Shrimp pasta, truffle fries, steak tacos, and a couple of margaritas? We left full and satisfied! 🍽️✨ Would I come back? Yes, especially for a laid-back meal before or after an event. 🚗 Parking: Valet $20 / Street & structure parking available
