Diner Reviews

"My wife and I went to this Cooper's Hawk location to celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary. We were treated to special perks just for being there on our anniversary and our server was exceptional. During the meal, we received a phone call with some bad news and our server was very respectful and caring and didn't rush us with our meal. The food and wine was excellent and the server just made our evening extra special."

"Took employees out to dinner. Waiter was great, food was very good. Noise level was energetic but you can still hold a conversation at the table without screaming. Great time had by all!! I would definitely do this again. Only drawback would be finding a parking spot. Don't waste your time just valet."

"Take a flight thru their wines at the wine bar. If you do not care for a wine on the flight, they will replace it with something you'd prefer. The wine bar and restaurant are usually pretty busy-- not matter what day of week it is, so do yourself a favor and make reservations in advance, to avoid a lonnnnnng wait."

"Our server was Chris , friendly excelent service. We ordered calamari, and there was a French fry in the plate. That was the only down fall of our dinner. Thanks for the free frie!"

"I don't often post on FB or write reviews but when someone deserves high praise I feel I owe it to them to make sure and write. Cooper's Hawk Restaurant will continue to get my business both personally and professionally. From the ease of online reservation (table was ready immediately) to the outstanding service and delicious food (and wine....we ordered a bottle just to have th decanter) it was a phenomenal experience. I would highly recommend Cooper's Hawk for any occasion."

"We love Coopers Hawk. The food, service, and atmosphere makes it one of our very favorite places to dine."

"We called for a reservation for 6 people for 5:15PM dinner and were told that the place was booked until after 8PM. Went to Open Table and booked the reservation; in fact we could have had any time we wanted ! Self parking is near impossible; valet available. With the hundreds of acres of open flat land all around, a larger parking lot might not be a bad idea, for such a busy place. The place is noisy and there are a lot of people all over. The food and service were good to very good. The blackened tilapia with chopped salad was very good - a large piece of fish next to a large salad- recommended. The fish (tuna) tacos were tasty, but messy- a soft shell would work better."

"Celebrating a family event; arrived ~7:30 p.m. (with reservation), seated quickly, ~5-10 min. Did not order appetizers, but the bread / butter were good. Lobster bisque and cream of asparagus soups - both fantastic. Crusted pork medallions, crab cakes, and one of the angel hair pastas (plus the kids' grilled cheese) all got high marks from the group; the Romance Red wine and Sunset cocktail were also great -- and we finished with splitting the chocolate cake, which was fantastic. Service was very good, a little slow but then again a) the place was PACKED, and b) our waitress was running around the place with a soft-cast on her leg, so can be forgiven for losing a step. :-) Very energetic atmosphere -- overall, highly recommended!"

"Just a great restaurant with quality food. The service was exceptional, the food was served hot and pretty darn quickly for a high end restaurant. The combination of flavors were delicious. And the wine, well, they are a winery...so you guessed it, yummmm."

"I think everyone in our party (6) had good food and enjoyed the wine. But it was so noisy in there we had to almost shout. We have been members for several years - I guess I forgot to ask for the room next to the bar. That one is a little quieter."

"I LOVE Cooper's Hawk... I have never been disappointed with the food or the wine. I love that they encourage you to sample a wine or two before you decide what you would like to drink. That way, you can make sure you'll enjoy the wine you choose. The food always turns out great and I've tried many different entrees. The service is usually fantastic and the servers are very knowledgeable. The only thing I wasn't as happy with was the temperature in the restaurant. It was a little chilly. This is my go to restaurant and the place my fiancee knows to take me for a special night out even though we live in Marengo."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"My wife and I went here recently for a special occasion, and we were blown away by the quality of food, drink and service. This was our first time eating dinner here, and we will certainly going back. Whether you are looking for quality food for reasonable price, or a great wine list, you won't be disappointed."

"From the moment we arrived at the complimentary valet station, until the time we left, the entire experience was excellent. The valet driver was polite and even informative. Stopped at the tasting bar and enjoyed a variety of wines from a very knowledgeable and pleasant server. Was seated promptly at our reservation time. Our server Adam was excellent. The food, from the pretzel bread, to the appetizer, to the main course was outstanding. Prices were very reasonable. Will definitely be back and would recommend to others."

"Coopers Hawk is a fun lively restaurant with great food and an extensive list of wines. The service is outstanding. I would highly recommend this place."

"Food is decent. Fairly pricey for what you get. Good wine selection. Servers were pleasant. Very noisy--so if you want to have a conversation with the people at your table, it is quite difficult. I would advise going late afternoon on a Saturday (which is what we did). We sat in the bar (which is first come/first serve) and then went into early evening. That was great timing. it was quieter."
Dined on 2/8/2014
"This was our first time to this restaurant and we were pleasantly surprised at the prices. They were quite reasonable for the quality of restaurant, ambiance and food. The waitress was professional, helpful and gave us just the right amount of attention. There were quite a few choices on the menu and the food came out nice and hot! I really enjoyed the filet mignon! Great wine choices and great system for helping the novice make the right choice. We would eat here again!"

"Portions were perfect size. Took the owner of the company I work for and his wife to lunch and they asked to come back there for dinner. Never happened for any other restaurant I have taken them to! After dinner, they asked when else they could go before they return to NC, and so we are going again Thursday night. We all loved the food, the service, and the atmosphere. The Lux Cabernet was not too bad either - kept evaporating from the bottle, so we had to have another one...."

"We enjoyed our dinner there so much we couldn't stop talking about it! We decided to go back to celebrate my husband's birthday! There were 5 of us and we were so thrilled with the service and the delicious food we can't wait to go back! Everyone told us the food was kind of high priced but we didn't find it any more expensive that any other good quality restaurant. You have to have the lobster & crab bisque - it's OUTSTANDING!!!"

"Our server Chris, was awesome! We had an infant with us and Chris did everything to accommodate our party, he had a great personality and took very good care of us. The food was spot on.....all 4 of us enjoyed our appetizers, soup and entrees. Wine was good too, very reasonably priced. Looking forward to our next visit!"

"This was my first time at this Cooper's Hawk location & our meal was Outstanding!! Hands down was the best meal I've had at any other Coppers location!"
Dined on 1/23/2014
"If you are expecting to be dazzled by an amazing house list, be prepared for disappointment. This is a novice winery at best. The waitstaff isn't knowledgeable on any level of sophistication, nor is the menu. The phonetical spellings of commonly used wine words and terms is an insult. If you are, however, a novice wine aficionado, then by all means drink up the koolaid they are serving at CHW and get your feet wet, but don't expect to find nuance, balance, or complexity. The food was reminiscent of your average LUEY chain with nothing special to note. The pairings seemed amateur displaying little adventure and showcasing the mundane. The private reserve house wine, a barrel o full leftovers, was the low point of the evening. Foodies Beware."

"Always great. We go for wine tasting first and then have a marvelous dinner"

"This is our second time at Cooper's Hawk. After the first visit we joined the wine club and couldn't be happier! Our server, Brad was amazing! The food was perfect and the deserts were to die for! We are slowly bringing our family members here to enjoy the food experience."
