About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem
Great for happy hour

The Boulder Cork Restaurant has provided quality food and excellent service since 1969. The restaurant is now one of Colorado’s most renowned dining experiences. The casual, yet attentive atmosphere is the perfect place to spend a special evening, be it to relax with friends or entertain business associates. Our banquet facilities can accommodate large groups with the quiet proficiency and superior quality that has become the hallmark of The Boulder Cork. The food is an impressive display of creativity and variety, masterminded by the chef, Jim Smailer. Chef Smailer has created an enticing offering of steaks, prime rib, chicken, pasta, and fresh fish selections; all on the cutting edge of culinary delight. The food is as fresh as the market allows. The true epicurean will agree that our efforts are apparent to both the eyes and the palate, from the appetizer through the handmade desserts.

The food was good but not outstanding. The presentation of the food was not what I expected from a high-end restaurant. Service is outstanding. We enjoyed the experience however not enough to want to visit frequently.

Fantastic food & such a beautiful restaurant. We got the wedge with chicken & the blue cheese dressing was otherworldly. We also ordered the green chili chicken mac & cheese & it was so insane we ordered a second one. The fresh bread was probably the best I’ve had since moving to Colorado. You didn’t need to drown it in butter, but I did anyway. We split the seared tuna sandwich with fries & it was divine. The wasabi mayo combined with the ginger & carrots was just🤌🏼🤌🏼. We wanted to have dessert but we couldn’t fit anymore food into our bodies. We ordered their smoked salmon for bagels the next day & can’t wait to try it. Definitely will be back.

We love the Cork! I splurged and got the scallops for $45. There were 3, each the size of a quarter and could be eaten in one normal-sized bite...they were delicious but way overpriced. I was disappointed. But I will definitely be back regardless!!

Our server, Liam, was excellent. He was professional, pleasant and articulate. He explained every aspect of the menu and highlighted our choices. We we celebrating our 29th wedding anniversary and Liam delivered a special treat after our meals. We were never rushed and would highly recommended Cork to anyone. We’ll be back.
