We were a party of 5 last evening at Cork Tree and all of us thought our meals were outstanding. Cork Tree is in "mall" situation but do not let that put you off. Once inside the whole atmosphere changes. From the moment we arrived service could not have been better. Since we were a larger party we had our... more

My girlfriends and I went to the Cork Tree Saturday night for dinner. We had ecellent service, but the best part was the food; each girl's dish was fantastic! We passed plates because we each wanted to try a bite of everything. The menu and it's execution are just top notch. Also, there was a great female saxsaphone player and... more

My girlfriend and i tried Cork Tree for the first time last weekend during a weekend away from San Diego. After seeing some mixed reviews we almost skipped it, but boy am i glad we didn't! We both have a background in the restaurant biz and we were in agreement that the service was by far the best we've received... more

We went here during our recent vacation to Palm Springs and we experienced the worst service of our trip. While the food was okay, it was ruined by the sub-standard service. First, after a lengthy wait, they brought the wrong appetizer to one of us. Second, the main courses were brought out at different times. Finally, when serving coffee, they... more

I visit the Palm Springs area about 6 or 7 times a year and what a great find The Cork Tree Restaurant has been.

A few times the Chef... more

DO NOT go here! Went here on a Saturday night after reading splendid reviews on trip advisor. Honestly, this was the worst meal I have eaten in years. The service was terrible. Our waiter took a 1/2 hour to get our drinks, didn't know the specials, spilled the wine all over our table, dropped about 20 sheets of orders/receipts all... more

we have gone to this place on 3 separate occasions. First time to the bar and just had 2 appetizers. Very good. The next two times for dinner. A totally different situation. Service was uneven, with long lapses of not seeing a server. The food is very gimmicky in its presentation with tons of little containers with different sauces and... more

A special evening in an area otherwise noted for faux cuisine. We each had a seafood dish to match any thing found in LA or SF. The presentation and service was unusually fine and the check was no surprise, value for money. more

We had a terrific dinner at Cork Tree. Would never have gone in if we hadn't read the other great reviews here because the outside is very generic in a shopping mall. Looks like a coffee shop from the street. But - surprises inside! Beautifully done, rather upscale dining room. Booths, linen, subdued lighting, interesting decor. Nice bar area. Great... more

Atmosphere & Service is excellent. Dinner entree's were a good sized portion, but not too large. Chef's special was very good (roast duck), and the prices were reasonable. Will definitely go back! more
