Decided to find a place we've never been that was between BC and home. Discovered Cork and Barrel. Looked good. Reviews were great. Called and spoke with the owner (so kind) to make sure we could get a table, and to Angola, IN we traveled. The owner warmly greeted us by name (per our phone conversation) and we were seated at a quiet, casually elegant corner table. Decor is beautiful, subdued. Music played softly. Lights were dim. (We recognized the location which several years ago was "The Hatchery.") Lovely ambiance. Food and beverages were wonderful! We shared a cold and crunchy wedge salad which the kitchen split for us. As our main meal, we shared three dishes from the tapas menu: smoked salmon, ahi tuna, and 3 mini shrimp tacos. All are pictured and described below. Our server, Megan, was a pure joy! We also were treated to the bruschetta...a nice surprise! SO fresh! Yum! Will we be back? YES! Should you try Cork and Barrel? ABSOLUTELY!

A solidly average supper club style restaurant serving the Lake James community. While the food and…read moredrinks may not "wow" you, you'll get a decent meal for a reasonable price. I started with a drink from their signature menu, a Knobby Old Fashioned, so named for using Knob Creek whiskey. The blend of muddled orange and cherry with the whiskey and dash of bitters was fine--my only critique is that such a drink should be served with a large chunk of ice, not regular cubes from the ice machine. Too much dilution too fast and the flavor is gone before a quarter of the drink has been consumed. For my entree I had Parmesan crusted cod. The fish was cooked well and the flavor was spot on. Generic out of the box fries were okay. I liked the "tartar" sauce served on the side--tangy with a garlicky kick. Finally, we were a group of nine and they gladly and accurately provided separate checks for each couple and individual. All in all a positive experience.

When i was there it had people so drunk they could barely stand, i saw a guy spit up like a baby on the floor and staff did nothing.

The cherry on top of this poop sandwich was that they shut off the music off and stopped serving drinks at 1am on a Saturday despite the online hours saying they close at 2am. A great place if you like being talked down to by staff, dancing on a sticky dance floor, and squeezing past sloppy drunk people who should not still be drinking.

Thanks to the dishwasher we were welcomed and provided with glasses of ice water long before our…read moreserver appeared and our drink orders were taken. Kudos to him for observing and responding to the fact that we were seated and not yet greeted by our server. And yet, his attention to the situation is a check in the plus column for a decent restaurant that was unfortunately, seriously under staffed when we stopped by for dinner recently. It seems that the owner or manager was essentially handing ALL of the front of the house duties, as well as tending the bar -- greeting, seating, waiting on the table, making and serving drinks, running food, and handing payment at the end of the night. A child, apparently the owner/manager's daughter occasionally bussed some tables and strutted around wielding a fly swatter (though fortunately I didn't see any flies--but there was outdoor seating). I could only see one person in the kitchen (there could have been another but I'm not sure). All in all it meant everything was S-L-O-W. That said, we were the perfect group for the situation--a bunch of Boomer college friends fully engaged in conversation and reminiscing about the good old days -- which compensated -- to some degree -- the time we waited for service. Well, eventually things got rolling. Our drink order was taken along with an appetizer for the table. The drinks arrived after a reasonable amount of time. I ordered the house version of an old fashioned made with a bourbon distilled at a local/regional distillery. Tasty -- my only nitpick -- such drinks should be served with a LARGE chunk of ice, not a scoop of cubes from the ice machine. The appetizer for the table was the house crab dip -- an excellent choice for sharing and the flavor was spot on. For my entree I chose the lamb "lollipops." The three or four lamb chops were perfectly cooked, juicy, tender and unctuous -- really unctuous since the fat cap was not trimmed -- but as a great food critic once said, "meat without fat is dead protein -- so in short, the meat was bursting with flavor. The asparagus were nicely roasted. The sauce was rich and garlicky (thanks to confit cloves of garlic). It complemented the gaminess of the lamb perfectly, but the amount of sauce a bit more than necessary for a truly balanced composed dish. I still enjoyed it immensely and would order it again. (By the way, I was able to sample my wife's tuna. The 3/16 of an inch sear on the tuna was perfect and the rare interior was exactly how tuna should be cooked.) The owner/manager was appropriately apologetic about the pace of service and I will say that she, and the kitchen, did their best under the circumstances. As I mentioned, we were a good group because our goal was time together, not precisely timed service. I would hope another couple of employees could rectify the slow service and build their clientele because the food is quite good, the location is excellent and I loved the decor, especially the vintage outboard motors including one or two designed by the great industrial designer Brooks Stevens from Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
