Is this place fancy? Trying to go for a fancy date.
A:
It can be. It's definitely not a place for riff raff. Check their social media, they sometimes have special music nights. Many FSO goers frequent here before the Saturday symphony. Make a reservation just in case. You won't be out of place… more

Quite a delicious, great vibing restaurant. Do, yourself a favor and put Cork on Saginaw on your must visit list!
We call our selves the "Feasting Four", we dine around metro Detroit rating as we go. Through a catered event we learned about Cork and decided to venture north to try it out. And we strongly encourage you to do the same.
First impression is a Cork is an old building turned into a modern/eclectic restaurant where you instantly feel welcomed. The service was on point, friendly and attentive - Kat was awesome! The owner was on site to ensure we were well taken care of and talk about her food (something that most owners don't do, we loved it).
The food. O, the food! The appetizers, salads, entrees and dessert were all delicious. Not huge portions but plenty enough we walked away full.
Cork turned out to be one of our highest graded restaurants thus far based on food, service & vibe. We look forward to another return.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - May 6, 2023
I used Yelp while in Flint, Michigan and it delivered again. I came across Cork on Saginaw and it was perfect. The staff was so accommodating. My party started out with 14 and downsized to 10 and they were able to seat us with no problem. The staff called me a day before my reservation so confirm and the day of.
The space itself is soooo cute. The lighting is perfect for a cute intimate dinner as well.
My food was amazing. No one in my party complained about the food, so that means they get an A+. Not one single complaint about anything. My friends are a tough crowd when it comes to food and taste.
My lamb chops were cooked to perfect. I ordered mine medium and they came out like butter. Delicious. Everyone else food looked amazing as well. We even order dessert and everyone was pleased as well.
I'm so upset I didn't capture all my food but I did get my lamb. We all ordered drinks and they were quite tasty as well.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Gabriel P.Streeterville, Chicago, IL762Feb 4, 2024

2 friends and I had a great experience here.
Atmosphere is spot on. Not to formal but cool, clean, and with very tight style.
Staff were all happy and personable. Every interaction was positive.
Drinks were great. Some good tweaks to known classics.
Charcuterie board shared app was great. Some very unique items that were all tasty.
Dinners were all good. I had the bolognese. Fresh and tasty.
We were all surprised to find this spot in Flint.
It had a welcoming feel for tourists and townies were around and clearly happy to be there.

Fantastic. Great food great wines great service. We took family from out of town and had the squash soup, roasted beet salad with salmon, the filet, Mac and cheese with and without lobster, stuffed chicken, and butternut squash lasagna. All was excellent. Our server was Brie and she is funny, knowledgeable and helpful with choices. All around one of our favorite places in Flint.

Dude. If you love pickles. The cubano pickles are something I would dream about before I moved to Flint. They are my go to sad gal food! Fried pickles with ham and cheese? And fuhgettabout the mustard dippins. I dont even care for mustard very often but this is wonderful. We always get the same waitress with dark long hair who is so sassy and makes the meals we've had there even better. We love to sit outside so I'm not sure what inside the restaurant is like!

This is a very reasonably priced little gem in downtown Flint. It's a relatively small space with an elegant ambiance. Eclectic menu. The staff were all very friendly. Service can be slow but the food and drink are well worth it. Bolognese was delicious. Pomme Frites are AMAZING. I could eat those all day. The deep fried olives were divine. The Tuscan Bread Salad makes a hearty and healthy meal. I look forward to going back and trying more items.
