I found out about Cork & Stem (C&S) while searching on Eventbrite for a NYE party. Come to find out the owner is also from the East Coast so we had a chance to ring in the New Year twice. I instantly loooved the friendly vibes when it was our first time there and didn't realize that it was brand new to the neighborhood. Everyone there was down-to-earth! And fast forward, C&S put out all kinds of events and I've joined in on the fun festivities like Happy Hour Bingo...Flower Vase Decorating Party just to name a few. This is now my favorite wine spot to go to. I made it a point to celebrate their 2nd Anniversary to show support. I highly recommend this woman-owned business to the Yelp Community :-)

Did you know that Cork and Stem is not just only an amazing spot for a great glass of wine but they also do floral arrangements for weddings and events? Jenna is absolutely amazing to work with and really strives to make sure you are getting exactly what you want and providing tons of options when it came to designing the flowers for my wedding. I have loved coming in here for happy hour over the years so when it came to picking who would do my flowers I knew it was going to be Cork & Stem. If you haven't been here yet you definitely should and if you have any sort of event coming up and want some gorgeous flowers to make your event pop - look no further and go to Cork & Stem!

Great selection of flowers and greens and $10 happy hour bouquets!
Jonathan Z.

Really can't say enough good things about this place. $10 Happy Hour bouquets, a great selection of wines and frozen bevvies, delicious bites, and the warmest owner and staff. Celebrated my birthday here and they had a long communal table set up for us. We had a few bottles to share and bomb flatbreads (of which the pesto was the crowd fave), along with a baked Brie that people couldn't get enough of, and a lovely selection of meats, cheeses, nuts and fruits on their charcuterie board. It happened to also be happy hour which meant $10 bouquets and it couldn't be simpler: 1 Focal, 2 accent, and 3 greens/fillers All wrapped up in brown parchment (they even wrapped the stems in wet paper towels since we had another stop before heading home), and finish off with a cute wine charm of your choice. Everyone got to show off their creative side, walk around and mingle, and enjoy some great bites. Would def recommend this place for a birthday, date night, or girls night out.

I came here for an event a few months back and immediately fell I love, and planned to comeback soon. They had their 2 year anniversary so my friend and I decided to stop by and celebrate with them. Omg! Such a fun night they had the whole place decked out and specials as well. They had fresh popcorn, face painting and photo ops to help celebrate as well as wine and food specials. I love the idea of making your own bouquet of flowers as I love fresh flowers. The staff are always so welcoming, kind and seem to genuinely love their job. They offer a nice selection of wines and their frosé wine slushee was delicious! So happy to see they're doing well, and cheers to many more years to come!

Flower wrap
Smitha A.

What a delightful spot! Flowers, wine and girl time? Perfect. We went on a Wednesday (pro tip: all night happy hour) with 5 of us. We ordered two bottles of the house cab and two boards for $70 total. We also got some individual glasses of wine, a hummus board (hummus is delicious here) and spicy (not spicy at all) jelly and cream cheese. They have gluten free crackers and veggies too. Finally, at the end of the night, we made flower wraps for $12. Great girls night out spot!

Super cute concept for a wine bar. It's a small, intimate space but wasn't busy at all when we came on a Friday night. We opted for the wine flights (a must in my opinion) and enjoyed the "Bartender's Choice" of pours. Server was knowledgeable about the wines which I always appreciate. They also had a basic selection of shareable food bites & the pesto flatbread hit the spot. I thought the bouquet building option was also a cute touch. We did one as a group (more on the pricey side as expected) and it came out nicely. Overall was a nice experience for a quiet Friday night with girlfriends.

Amazing overall! 10/10 in all categories. Service was super friendly and accommodating, wine was tasty and strong, and charcuterie was so delicious! We had a reservation but got to choose where to sit so we sat in some comfy chairs in the front. Was a little loud some times since there was an event in the back but wasn't an issue at all and will for sure be back soon. Their happy hour deal is incredible!

Cute for a friend's event! Staff was engaging and present. The flower wall is a must here. The bubbles and wine were priced fairly and were happy with every choice. Wish i knew about this adorable place sooner!

Jennifer C.

Went there for a wine and food pairing event. It is such a cute space! They have some lounge seating in the front, a bar that you can sit around and then more of an event space/flower making area in the back. Our host was really nice and the lady working at the bar that refilled drinks was too. I'd definitely come back and try more wines since I liked the ones at the event.

Food menu

Service, wine, food, and vibes all amazing! Came here with my partner to check the place out and it was such a cute little spot. Immediately as we walked in Kaya welcomed us in and talked us over where we could sit. There was even a paint and sip going on--SO CUTE! We ended up getting their board and bottle deal. They have a simple selection of different wines that stretch across the west coast. Kaya was so sweet, and talked us through the menu--even helped us get some food in right before the kitchen closed! Later she even gave us a cute little bouquet of flowers :,) Such a fun spot, and definitely recommend to give it a try!

I finally checked out Cork & Stem for a friend's birthday celebration last week Saturday. The birthday boy and his fiancé are friends with the owner, Jen, who is lovely. The space she created is absolutely wonderful! She reserved the back area for the party. We were able to decorate the space with balloons and streamers and confetti. The birthday boy arrived and was totally surprised. It was the best! The food that was ordered from the venue was a great variety and was delicious! I didn't even realize I was hungry until I smelled the fresh bread of the flatbread pizzas. We all noshed and raved about all of the things we were shoving into our faces. The wine! My friend selected four wines to be served: a red, a rose, a chard, and a bubbly. I tried each of them and they were all good but my favourite was the rose which isn't like me. That's one of maybe three roses that I've liked...ever. We enjoyed each other's company and removed our debris so they could close at 9 PM. I found out they have regular events including flower arranging parties monthly. I'll definitely be back to partake of a few and the food and wine. Thank you, C&S for a brilliant evening!

I made a reservation (just in case) because on a weekend you never know. Luckily, though, we arrived and there was plenty of available seating. My husband and I had our 10 and 5 year old with us and they easily accommodated us. It's a straightforward, but lovely menu that has a little bit for everyone. We enjoyed sharing a few plates and fresh oysters on the half shell. They do not have a kids menu, which was alright with us. Our daughter, who loves a good steak at 5 years old, enjoyed their pub steak and fries and shared a Mexican Coke with her brother. For my husband and I, we enjoyed sharing their beef tartare and to finish it off, a banana split. What we found so whimsical about Finca is their presentation. My husband and I really enjoyed exploring their menu and leaving room for a return visit soon.

I think we ordered just about everything on the left side of the menu, but the standouts were the beef tartare, the lamb osso buco, and the hamachi. Honestly, there wasn't a single bad bite all night. The wine list is thoughtfully curated, with some unique Spanish selections that were a pleasant surprise. This may have just become my new regular haunt. It's a fantastic neighborhood gem that deserves a place on any foodie's must-visit list. Absolutely love this place!

I suggested here. Warm friendly greeting when we walked in. I told the hostess we didn't have a reservation and was just coming in for a drink. She gave us a nice table inside. We ordered a bottle of prosecco. "Let's celebrate the end of the school year!" We also ordered a chicken empanada and a mushroom empanada...both very good! The pickled vegetables were delicious too!

Our waitress was a total superstar and took great care of us with service and answering questions. We even joked about Star Trek a bit. I ordered the Rose salad and some roasted potatoes (Bravas Rosas). The potatoes were really delicious and well-seasoned with crunchy and soft parts and a nice spicy dipping sauce. I wanted to love the salad because it was large and well-dressed, BUT the lettuce was gritty and could've used a more thorough rinse. I ended up not eating much of it because the texture wasn't good. One of my friends got the Rose Salad Pie which she really enjoyed (basically a pizza with Rose Salad on top) and my other friend got the gazpacho which really liked. I would definitely come back and try some other dishes. If I do, I'll update the review!

Third time trying the chef's menu and it never disappoints!…read more 1. Tuna crudo with plum: fresh tart and sweet- wonderful 2. Pintxos platter: Castelvetrano olives lightly seasoned, mussels escabeche, sardines with pickled guindilla peppers, blistered shisito peppers and amazing bread- every bite was full of flavor and delicious! Interestingly shishitos were substituted for lookalike typical basque padron peppers- still great tasting roasted. 3. Salad with pickled grapes and manchego cheese- excellent- I could've eaten 3! 4. Swordfish à la Milanese with peach habanero sauce and charred sweet Gernika peppersa delicious and perfectly cooked but my least fav style of cooking an otherwise lovely swordfish steak. Not a fan of breaded entrees in general. I believe the leaves were roast mustard greens 5. Patatas bravas- perfectly crispy roasted and dressed with a romesco sauce and a creamy sauce 6. Basque cheesecake- is it my birthday? So so good! Perfectly orchestrated dinner! Delighted to introduce yet another friend to the wonders of basque cuisine.

I started with the London Dry G&T, which was excellent--cold, crisp, and exactly what a gin and tonic should be. We shared a dozen raw oysters. They were fresh and delicious, though a little on the petite side. No complaints, though--they disappeared quickly enough. Then came the bread and butter. I realize writing a paragraph about bread and butter makes me sound like I've completely lost perspective, but here we are. The bread was fantastic, and the butter should probably have its own fan club. The charred cauliflower was the sleeper hit of the meal. If someone had told me beforehand that I'd be thinking about a cauliflower dish days later, I would have laughed. It was outrageously good. For dessert, we had the Basque cheesecake, which was rich, creamy, and completely worth saving room for. If there's a better way to end a meal, I'm not currently aware of it. The atmosphere was lively without being chaotic, and the service was friendly and relaxed. Overall, a great spot for a night out. The Kurt Vile concert was excellent, but I have to admit the cauliflower made a pretty strong case for being the headliner.

One Door North is one of those places that makes you wonder why you don't go more often…read more Thursday nights are the move. Live music, killer cocktail specials, and a vibe that's somehow laid-back and lively all at once. Whether you're catching up with friends or on a date, it's the kind of place where "one drink" quickly turns into closing out the night. The service? Top-tier. Everyone was genuinely welcoming, attentive, and made us feel like regulars. And whatever you do... save room for the S'mores dessert. It's gooey, chocolatey, perfectly toasted, and honestly worth the trip all by itself. I would've ordered a second one if dignity (and my waistband) hadn't stepped in. Great food, great drinks, great music, and even better hospitality. One Door North absolutely knows how to do Thursday nights right.

The restaurant itself has a casual outdoorsy vibe with lots of smaller tables, but they also had two tent setups for larger groups which made our dinner feel a little more private and special. We were seated promptly and Madison took great care of us throughout the evening. We started with a bunch of shared appetizers and flatbreads for the table. Favorites of the night were definitely the Elote-Style Cauliflower (so flavorful and delicious!!) and the Wildflower Cornbread Muffins which were honestly fantastic. The Forager's Truffle Flatbread was also really good -- nice truffle flavor without being overpowering. The Award-Winning Truffle Fries were decent, and the Lodge Pretzel Board was okay too; the mustard butter was great but the alpine cheese dip didn't really wow us. We also tried the Artichoke and BBQ Chicken Flatbreads which were both solid choices for sharing with a group. One thing we noted though was that besides the flatbreads, the "Basecamp Mains" section was completely non-vegetarian, which was why we ended up doing only shared appetizers instead of trying out the entrees as half our group was vegetarian and did not have any options to choose from. We ended up skipping dessert since none of the options really stood out to us and headed elsewhere for sweets afterward. Overall, a really fun atmosphere for a group dinner with good service, great vibes, and several standout dishes. I definitely want to return with my family to try out some of the entrees as well.
