had dinner there yesterday for the first time. the place was a little dark giving the impression of a high-end restaurant to take the significant other for a romantic meal. surprisingly, they have an early bird special between 4pm to 530pm. reading the menu on a cleaver was a first for me. i had the prime rib and it was ok, even though you cant get it with creamed spinach so i settled for the broccoli . they do have a really nice salad bar, and the service was great.

Another blah experience at the Cork. Service was not attentive, salmon so overcooked that it practically crumbled when touched with my fork. My guest's steak, which I tasted, was just okay...really, I've had better quality steaks from the grocery store. Love the cool 70s vibe of the decor however...and the location will keep me coming back, oh and its locally owned, too.

My experience was just like Jessica D's. Its sad when a steak place can't cook a steak right. Disappointing from beginning to end.

I had heard about this place several times so when I was in Evansville recently I decided to stop in for dinner with my wife. The service was excellent and atmosphere was nice. My wife had the baked scallops and I opted for the NY strip steak. Her's was excellent - nicely cooked and tasty. For me, my steak was ok but not as enjoyable as I would have liked. I did have to send it back the first time as it came out on the very rare side. The flavor profile itself was really just meat - I'm not sure they used any seasoning to bring out the Strip's natural flavors. My guess is that they use more of a standard or select grade of meat instead of a choice or prime cut. Overall it was a very nice experience but I would say for a place that positions itself as a steak house, they could improve their approach a little and make turn this into a 5 star restaurant easily.

This is the wife and I's favorite spot in Evansville. Can't go wrong with the steak but make sure you have the caps n cheese as a starter. Cheryl is an amazing bartender and makes the stop at the bar worth while and entertaining! **BTW....best salad bar in town!**

Yikes! Usually adored by locals, this restaurant has some work to do. I ordered off of the specials of the day; however, (silly me), I forgot to ask the price for the bone in ribeye. Usually waiters will inform you of the price; however, not this time. I was not too concerned initially because of the prices for the other entrees. Ordered the bone in rib eye medium well and it came back medium rare. That's inexcusable for an entree that was priced at $45!! Had to send it back. The salad bar, which everyone had informed us was the best in town was average at best; Jason's Deli has an equally good salad bar and that's a deli for crying out loud. Not to be to snobby; but when they serviced Pinot Grigio in a cabernet glass I kinda knew I was not where I wanted to be. Service was average. Meat (once cooked correctly) was tasty but non-remarkable. I have no plans to go back.

This was a great find if you prefer eating local vs. chain. The salad bar offered a wide variety of veggies, fruit, and other goodies. The bread was hot and delicious. Blackened cod was the special I chose and was able to substitute asparagus. I was never left wanting anything from the wait staff although I arrived at the start of the lunch hour. Would definitely recommend!

I really want to like this place. I've been over the years about 8-10 times, this last time was average. Steak just didn't taste that great. Everything else I had from appetizers, salad bar, and sides were great. I grill a better steak when I buy it at Schnucks and throw it on my gas grill with no seasoning. For what should be the highlight of the meal, it never seems to be very good here.

Went to Cork& Clever this evening, Cherly the bartender was great, we ate at the bar. I love Alaskan King Crab, but will not work for my meal. They had AKC on menu, I asked if they would take the meat out of the shell. The Chef said no because he was short handed, looked at the tables and the place was not busy at all. That turned me off right away, I have ordered AKC all over the country, for years, first time I have been told no! I then ordered their prime rib, they claim it to be the best, at 7:00pm, they had none. I then ordered a filet rare, got my meal and the filet was served in two pieces, dry on the edges. It was more medium. I sent it back, received a brand new one, but was not rare, Chef had a real problem serving a rare steak! We had a very successful business day and we're celebrating a great day, dinner was a downer, I usually leave 20% tip, I left 15% only because of Cherly. Not sure if I would go back!

I have known about this place all my adult life and really for some reason have never ate there. Over the past 6 months we have been there 3 times and really enjoyed everything about the long time established Evansville IN restaurant. The ambiance is nice it does not have the industrial chain feel. The 1970's decor is making a comeback. The bartender Cheryl is the best. Attentive to all details. The food was great and overall service the best. We always go early and order off of the early bird menu. I highly recommend to those who are tired of the chain restaurants and to those that cook at home mainly and want something that is nice and good.

Our waiter kept stepping on my husband's feet and reeked of cigarette smoke. We asked for a table by the fire, but it wasn't lit. The place was empty on a Saturday night, the food below par (to put it mildly; our medium-rare fillets were very dry), the place dingy...and the menu was on both sides of a ridiculous cleaver. Not cute.

The Cork 'n Cleaver was always our team's spot for special dinners (that is, when one of the partners was in town), and for good reason...it's pricey. Pricey, but well worth the money. The first thing you notice walking in is that it's dark...not dimly ambient, but a bit too dark. The next thing you notice: the menus are printed on cleavers! In a wise move, they're blunt, but they certainly leave an impression. When they present you with the soup and salad choice, go with the salad...their salad bar goes far beyond what you'd find at your cafeteria salad bar. I loved seeing if anchovies would go well with artichokes and pepperoni. While I'm not a big steak guy, the goods here have never disappointed. The service is always good, and when we roll in deep, the staff usually have fun with us, which is nice for a group of rowdy consultants (well, after a few bottles of wine have been passed around). Definitely someplace you want to stop by at least once during your time in the EVV.

There's no such thing as a bad meal at this restaurant. The people are great and the food is fantastic. Even the small prime rib is big. Great salad bar too.

Steakhouses are sorely lacking in this town. So, I was excited to learn about Cork n' Cleaver, until I visited. The menu is limited, the service was uninterested and prices are too high IMHO. The only reason I rated this 2 stars is because of the salad bar...they actually offer something more than tomatoes and cheese! Unfortunately, my company decided to have their annual Christmas party there last year and it was a complete nightmare. Still waiting for a decent steakhouse to pop up.

We love everything about Cork 'n Cleaver. When my wife and I want to go somewhere "nice" Cork is often the first place that comes to mind. They easily have the best salad bar in Evansville and probably the best steaks too. The atmosphere is very quiet, private and relaxing. Management is visible and involved and this contributes to the efficiency of the staff. We've dined here many times and every experience has been great.
