Cork Tree Tavern - Amherst

We ordered the Special Wagyu Beef and it was outstanding! And the price was reasonable. When you can order an entree with two sides for under twenty dollars THAT is an amazing feat! I appreciate that they don't gouge customers.......atmosphere is enticing for a great evening out. The bartender was friendly and focused on customer service.

Fabulous food. Had the calamari n octopus as an appetizer, for entrees, I had the salmon n rosemary fries and my wife had the pasta n scampi. Really great food n wine. My Manhattan up was the best I have had in a long time as was the gin n tonic that my wife had. Excellent food, drinks and service!!!

Food was excellent, and the service was wonderful. Very clean place with comfortable seating. We had a party of four and plenty of table space. The bread is too die for. Five stars doesn't do this restaurant justice, we give them a ten! Thank you for a wonderful meal. We will definitely be back!!

We made reservations online but showed up slightly early. Got us right in. Wasn't very crowded. The server brought out menus for drinks, wine, and food. She asked if it was ok to go over their specials. She took our drink orders and filled our water glasses. While the mixed drinks were being made another server dropped off some flat bread for us. The flat bread was lighty and spongy. Covered with cheese and tomato. Baked perfect. Came with a side of what I think was chili butter. Our server came back and took our good order and dropped the drinks off. Next out was our salad. Lettuce, dark green, Walnuts, red and yellow cherry tomatoes, and sliced carrots. It was good. Small but good. Finally the main course came out. I had the strip steak and prosciutto potato cakes and my wife had the scampi fettuccine. My steak was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The potato cakes were stellar. The wife's fettuccine was good but not what she expected. It had a spice aspect to it that created some heat she wasn't a fan of. She likes a savory pasta. The shrimp in it were huge. Dessert we chose to split a cannoli. They used a pizelle shell. It was very good. Came plated with some berries and sauce. Wait staff was on top of it and the courses came timed just right. The decor is interesting too. Hard to nail down what style it is.

We just had the best meal in a long time. Alexandra was knowledgeable and was the BEST!! All four of us agreed we would be back soon. The homemade ricotta was beyond good. We had osso buco, scallops and the porterhose and all were exquisite!
