   Food there is good but we mainly went for appetizers and drinks in the lounge area; the atmosphere was great, mostly eastern europeans but also very diverse. The man that seemed to be the manager was so friendly and laid back, the waitresses are cool and also pretty laid back, I definitely recommend going there for their seafood and assortment of salads. Priced very VERY well.

   Generous portions of good quality food. A great Gem in a local neighbourhood. Reasobable priced food and I'd definately go there again

   THE waiter was constantly ignoring our requests while was on top of the requests by other table. Every table was served complimentary bread ours was skipped and when asked he ignored us. Rude and made us feel unwanted.

   Service was a bit slower than expected especially on a weekday evening. Food was alright. Patio season is awesome here though!

   My Wife and I went for lunch on Fathers Day, Used the patio, great outdoor lunch experience, food very good, only comment that I could make, and, it's not meant to be negative by any means, there are two menu's, our waitress brought only the one, looking around at what was on the diners plates, and, what was on our menu were obviously different, make sure that you get a look at both. Enjoy, highly recommended

   Open Cork is a really a gem. From the massive patio to the various vibes inside (cool bar area, traditional dining room and two rooms for parties, one with club chairs and a fireplace, the other a club like atmosphere) to the varied menu. The food is really well done here, especially the seafood and the risottos. And they have a very impressive wine list.

   This was our first time at Open Cork. We received a friendly greeting and were escorted through the relaxed bar setting into a room with very comfortable leather chairs. The room was beautifully decorated, quiet and is a great place to bring a larger group. There was another area that is more of a typical restaurant atmosphere. There is a large patio that wraps around the south and west exposures of the building. This place seems to have a style of dining for everyone from an after work drink on the patio, group of friends, to a quiet and romantic meal. Everyone enjoyed their meals. If anything the portions could be almost a bit too large, if that can be seen to some as a negative thing. The escargot appetizer was a very generous helping and a fantastic way to begin our meal. Our waitress was there when needed for anything but also let us enjoy our meals and gave us lots of time so our group could really enjoy ourselves. I would say this restaurant is a very good and comfortable value for the money. I am looking forward to hitting the patio on a nice day.

   Open Cork was amazing. It was my grandma's birthday, and I was just searching up new places to eat in Mississauga. I found Open Cork and from the pictures I saw online, it already looked very neat! Thus, I decided to book a table for my family. The ambiance and interior set-up of the restaurant was elegant, without looking too overly extravagant. Our server was really kind and attentive to us. Of course, the food was amazing! Most of us ordered the chef's specials for that evening, and we were all very satisfied with each of our dishes. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a new place to eat!

   My girlfriend and I were recently at the restaurant for dinner with 3 other couples. Everybody enjoyed their food. The services was quick getting the food out, but we found ourselves waiting repeatedly for the waiting to refill the water jug. We we all drinking wine too, so perhaps he thought we were going to need the water filled up as much because of that. The dining room is cozy, but the coat rack is an eye sore. It's a nice idea to have, but I think it should be endlosed in a closet, or hiddern around the corner out of sight for the patrons. It definitely stuck out like a sore thumb. I'm the one who suggested this restaurant, and everybody was happy after our visit. FSG

    This was one of the worst restaurants I've ever been to in my life. We ordered our meal, and the waitress took more than 30 minutes before even bringing bread over to the table. The food only came out a full hour later, which was still subpar given how long it took. The waitress was not apologetic at all and was trying to downplay the impact of it on our night out. I sincerely value the importance of customer service when you're out to dinner for a special night, and this was one of the worst, if not the worst service I've received at a restaurant. Do not waste your time at this restaurant. You will get a better experience and better food at any other restaurant than this. I sincerely hope this restaurant reevaluates its wait staff going forward. I am disappointed that this restaurant is affiliated with Open Table as it only devalues the great services provided by Open Table. Please people, stay away from this place!
