Normally not a fan of hotel eatery's, but Crust & Cork brought their A game and was impressed!…read more Plenty of parking at location, recommend parking in front for ease of access. Entry is located just off the main lobby, bar seating, indoor and outdoor with water view as well. Quickly seated and grabbed the artichoke Florentine fonduta and scallop Caprese for appetizers which were delicious! Wine selection is decent along with cocktails and a handful of beers. For the mains we grabbed a New Yorker Pizza, bolognese and the truffle (longest name ever) pasta in which we added scallops. All were a hit. Finished with the hot honey peach cheesecake and lemoncello cake. Cheesecake a little heavy and sweet after a large meal, yet still awesome. The lemoncello hit the spot perfectly, light and perfect! If in the area and don't mind a hotel venue for a quick meal. Check this one out. Be mindful though, I have heard it can book out for events and not be available from time to time so always best to call and save time should the stars align and thus occur when giving this location a shot! Enjoy!

They also offer both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a nice option depending on the weather or the vibe you're looking for. If you're looking for the restaurant, it's located inside the hotel. As soon as you walk through the front entrance, you'll see it, making it easy to find.

Overall this is a solid restaurant…read more.. My husband and I visited this restaurant I believe a year or two ago we came one night for dinner and everything was delicious I'm not a big soul food person so every now and again I'll go out with my husband for a soul food dinner. Even though our first visit here was about 2 years ago we did visit this past Saturday with two other couples to celebrate our husbands for husband appreciation day which is the third Saturday in April always. We had reservations for Saturday at noon and we arrived right on time and our space was already set for us. Our waitress/bartender Alize took care of us... very personable ...very sweet... customer service was a 10 out of 10. I will make mention ahead of time I did order cornbread later on and I never got it :( Omg! I did call but no answer so I figured I would just go ahead and charge it to the game but I was definitely looking forward to trying the cornbread with my grits. The ambience inside is definitely welcoming the music is not blasting definitely a comfortable volume. The parking can be an issue but we didn't have one. Parking was available on the street and it was only a short walk for us to get to the restaurant. Our meals out of the six of us present I believe at least half of us ordered the catfish one person ordered the turkey chops and that was basically the gist of our meals. I don't think anybody ordered any straight up breakfast food but I will say everybody was in agreeance that this meal and dining experience was amazing! We will definitely be back soon and we definitely recommend you trying out this restaurant. My meal in particular I had the grilled catfish and created my grits with honey jalapeno and butter and oh my goodness everything was good from beginning to end. Our drinks were top-notch as well! The bartender even made up a drink for one of the wives at the table. She didn't know what she wanted but wanted to be surprised and she was pleasantly surprised she ordered another one. Our husbands enjoyed their surprise brunch even though they had some kind of inkling that something was happening because we did get shirts for them to wear to match each other... Such a fun Saturday and a great dining experience by all highly recommend you give them a try if you're in the area! Have fun and enjoy life :)

We'd…read morehad plans to go to another restaurant in Norfolk but it was closed the whole weekend for Labor Day so had to make a last minute decision on where I wanted to go instead! I have been wanting to try El Korita for a couple of years now so figured this would be a perfect time, I'm sure glad we did! We got there an hour before closing and even though the place is pretty tiny, they were able to seat our party of six with no wait time. Put two tables together for us and quickly got our drink orders and brought us three baskets if chips with both the red and white salsas to accompany them. Red salsa was delicious, I'm not a fan of the white sauce in general but the white with the red together was pretty tasty. They also took our food order quickly and were patient with our requests to change a couple of things with the order. Food came out really quickly, very hot and freshly made, and delicious!!! Our party tried the steak and chicken fajitas, enchiladas Mexicanas, loaded nachos, shrimp taco salad, steak tacos and steak quesadilla. Everything was delicious and really reasonably priced and they never rushed us through, even though by the end of our meal it was closing time. Highly recommend this place, we'll definitely be back!

My babe and I dined here for Cinco De Mayo. We heard about other Mexican cuisine restaurants and…read morehow busy they were on this day, so I had hoped this place wasn't too too busy. We arrived about 6:00 pm and we waited about five minutes... to our surprise another party was getting up from the table. After the waitress cleaned the table, we were sat after 8 minutes of walking in. Business was booming! We saw only three workers up front, but they all were on the move non stop. I ordered chicken and beef soft tacos and my babe ordered the fajitas. We both enjoyed our food and ate it all! He ordered a cocktail and I, a margarita. The margarita had too much mix in it and was not good at all... I am taking away the one star. The free chips and salsa... the chips were delish! Not sure if they were fresh or store bought. The food was plentiful and overall we will return if we are in the mood for Mexican. This mom and pop shop closes early, but if you are in the area they are worth checking out. Parking is available on the street. I did not see a garage nearby, but on this day parking was not an issue for us. Have fun and enjoy life :)

I just knew this place was going to be Top Notch when I told my bestie visiting from Atlanta we…read morewere going to go here for a cocktail hour this past Friday night... boy was I disgusted and disappointed. We arrived at 6:30pm for our reservation. We walked in and was greeted and the next gesture was the hostess asking for $10 each. I was a bit blown away because I didn't understand what the $10 was for because we just walked in the restaurant and it was only a handful of people inside including an employee sitting down eating ... and the workers still setting up and what appeared to be the entertainment that was setting up as well. The hostess mentioned entertainment was taking place around 7:30 or 8:00 ... Okay but it was not even close to that time frame so not sure why money was taken or asked for in advance. My bestie and I were going to dine if anything share an appetizer and have a drink ...definitely wasn't going to be there for any entertainment because we both were underdressed so that was a bit of a turn-off but he was excited to try the restaurant so he paid the $20 for us to walk in and sit down. The restaurant was wide open so we decided to sit at the bar instead of a table not sure if he was greeted at the bar because I went to the restroom. Nevertheless I came from the restroom and sat at the bar with him and not even 2 minutes later I was greeted with gnats and the smell of bleach such a turn off not sure what's going on here or what happened but I was ready to go. My bestie wanted to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt but 5 minutes later I still was turned off and was ready to go. Well... go at your own risk. Parking is available on the street as well as a parking garage is available within walking distance. We were in and out by 7pm. $60 spent I order an old fashioned I know I finished that in about 15 seconds because I didn't want anything to get in it so from what I can recall it was good. Have fun and enjoy life :)

Our waiter was good and attentive, but the hostess was kind of slow and seemed to take forever on the phone before she seated us. The food was waaaay overpriced for what you get. Unfortunately, a lot of what we tried just wasn't very flavorful and was served in very small portions. Even the crème brûlée, which I was actually really excited about, was disappointing. It was hot on top but very cold at the bottom. It honestly felt like they were trying really hard to create this upscale, unique experience, but the food just didn't live up to the price point. The atmosphere and drinks are great, but I don't think that's enough to justify the cost of the food. There are just too many other places where I feel like you get more for your money.

Great times! Hidden gem…read more.. My husband and I love it here! We love the hometown feel of a restaurant where it seems everybody is a friend of a friend who knows a friend who goes here. The waitresses are always super friendly and on point from the many times that we visited we seem to be regulars so they always greet us and sometimes they even know what we're wanting to either eat or drink. Always a great time here! On Friday's they do karaoke and feature live bands sometimes. We haven't really attended a night where it was super busy but I have driven by before where some nights have been busier than others during the week. They do offer specials on food as well as drinks so if you like a small bar with friendly service definitely check them out if you're in the area. Parking can be a little difficult but they make it work and if you want to visit you will make it make it work as well. Highly recommend you try the catfish nuggets one of my favorites and if you want a little life Fair a salad with grilled chicken always on point for me. Have fun and enjoy life :)

I ordered a fresh Margarita which was very good I believe the bartender that assisted us last night was Heather she's so bomb thank you Heather see you next time girl:) I ordered a half a pound of the blackened shrimp steamed shrimp that is with a side of fries.
