A wonderful experience! I was visiting my parents and chose…read moreCork & Fork for my birthday celebration. It was perfect! The scallops were cooked just right and the drinks were devine. Highly recommended for chic vibes and great service!

Unfortunately, four dishes and one drink were far below the standard we expected. We ordered the…read morescallops, which were disappointing; the carpaccio, which normally comes with a lemon-mustard sauce but was served completely dry without it; and the Thai shrimp cakes, which arrived completely burnt to a crisp. We also ordered a drink that was supposed to include egg white, but it was served without it. After having issues with four dishes and a drink during the same visit, we felt that something was clearly off with the kitchen and bar that evening. We asked the owner, who was sitting next to us at the bar, whether the chef had changed because it seemed like the restaurant was simply having an off night. What happened next was even more disappointing. At first, the owner pretended that he wasn't the owner and said that he knew nothing about the restaurant. After overhearing our continued discussion about the quality of the food and drinks, he confronted us and said, "We don't need patrons like you at our restaurant. There are plenty of other restaurants for you to eat at. Why don't you just leave?" We were not being disrespectful or unreasonable--we were simply disappointed with the food and drinks and trying to understand what had happened. Being spoken to that way by the owner was insulting, completely uncalled for, and genuinely hurtful. I do want to make one thing very clear: the staff and bartenders who work at Cork & Fork were wonderful. They felt terrible about what happened and made it clear that they believed the owner's behavior toward us was completely inappropriate. After we left, several staff members actually followed us outside to apologize on behalf of the owner for the way he had spoken to us. Their kindness and concern were greatly appreciated, and this review is not a reflection of them. There are many excellent restaurants in La Quinta, and based on this experience, we will be taking our business elsewhere. We would strongly suggest considering the many other fine establishments in La Quinta before choosing Cork & Fork.

I've come here in the middle of the day after a 6 mile hike at the tramway, for a late, drunk dinner after getting picked up from happy hour, and even when I was sick for a comfort meal. This place is DANGEROUSLY good, I could eat here every single week but I would easily gain 15 pounds before Thanksgiving. I am not even a traditional "Philly Cheesesteak" fan, but the bacon Philly at Art Alkobar is one of my favorite sandwiches of all time.

Stopped by on a Friday afternoon and got the Lechon Kawali with rice. The kitchen is open and you can see your food being prepared which is always cool. The dish was as expected and delicious. I liked the sauce that came with it and the Lechon was nice and crispy and meaty too. I am a new customer and will be returning to try other filipino dishes. They have cheesesteak sandwiches too and other non filipino dishes. Clean spot and very nice staff. I said thank and bye to them in Tagalog and they replied back. Thanks for the yummy food!

The ambiance is calm and clean but the food display next to the cash register at times has overflowing food, nothing too dramatic. The food is okay now, I recall a few years ago the food seemed a bit fresher specifically the chicken dishes like the orange chicken and popcorn chicken. Yes, the noodles and rice are always fresh yet today I went and got the teriyaki chicken wasn't the best. The taste is on point but the texture was really hard and seemed a bit stale along with dry. On the other hand, the butter chicken was amazing definitely give it a try!

I felt like I was gonna choke on the dry rice, orange chicken was nothing but hard sugar with hardly no chicken, the broccoli with beef was all broccoli with 2 small trips of broccoli.

First I have to give a HUGE shout out to the hostess Asia. From the moment my family and I walked…read morein she became the face of Joy, with her beautiful greetings, smile, and just pure "Joy". Pun intended but so perfect for her! We were celebrating my 19 3/4 Birthday (x3 LOL). She seated us in a very quaint, part of the dining area, pleasantly seating each guest. Now on to our server, Tony. He was just as professional and polite and welcoming. He ensured our order, drinks and food were all done in perfect timing. Never left a drink empty and constantly ensured we were pleased with our dining experience. Now onto Asia and Tony both, they shocked me with not only an awesomely delicious chocolate cake, but a card signed by the staff. (Thank God they skipped the singing part, you know at 19 3/4 I'm still shy! LOL). Anyhow, i can't leave out the food-but it will be nothing new I write about their food! DELICIOUS AND AMAZING "A MUST!" Thank you Joy for yet again an amazing experience. We'll be back.

Had a business/pleasure meeting so we decided to meet over Chinese. The person I was meeting…read moresuggested we try JOY Asian Cuisine, the menu looked good so I was game. The restaurant is hard to find in the huge building and we ultimately had to ask directions but that's a minor detail. And if we had come through an entrance closer to the actual restaurant that might have been different. One thing that gave me pause is you can smell cigarette smoke going through the main casino building but thankfully the restaurant air was fresh with no detectable smoke odor. I suspect a positive air-flow system which is good. The restaurant interior is roomy, clean and pleasant with Oriental style decor which is nice. The staff were warm and inviting right from the person that greeted us at the entrance, throughout our meal and just as gracious upon our exit. We were there during the lunch menu which of course is limited but plenty of appealing choices. I ordered Twice cooked pork which though I have made myself I don't recall ever ordering it in a restaurant. My dish was very tasty with plenty of tender pork slices and filling enough I didn't want dessert. My lunch partner had Kung Pao chicken which looked good though I didn't taste, but he thought underwhelming, bland and average at best. If only going by my experience I would have given 5 stars but I have to take into consideration the opinion of my lunch partner for the benefit of anyone reading this review. I would eat there again but not likely anytime soon as it is an unnecessarily long drive when there are plenty of Asian restaurants that I like within my local area. Good but not 60 mile round-trip good.

Orn, the owner helped with our menu planning and was so accommodating. She allowed my wife to set up bday banners and decorations beforehand pretty early while they were still open for customers. Their service was top notch and always made sure our drinks and food were timely. I met her in the back afterwards and can tell she cooked with pride and love.
