★★★★★ 5.0 Local expert Paola Martinez · Jan 2026

I love everything and everyone here! I bring clients, friends, dates! Server Tessa & the manager are awesome! If you never been they have such a cool concept of switching menus to international food themes I believe every 3 months, their drinks are great, most importantly food is always 🔥 my favorite repetitive meals are the tutto calabria lamb burger, their fried chicken supper on Sundays, biscuits & gravy and of course every seasonal menu! PSA don’t leave without trying the beignets 💕 If you like to try something new I definitely recommend you this place 💕

My husband, my friend, and I had a fantastic time. We lucked out with a minimal wait, but be prepared for a line out the door—this place is popular! I loved the Rasta Bowl, and we enjoyed mimosas with our meal.

We found our new favorite place. We’ve been here four times now. As it’s been mentioned in other reviews, they have their regular menu, but then they also have a special menu they change every 3 months. The first time we were here, it was a Brazilian theme. Everything was excellent! Their latest theme is New Orleans, LA. My 15 year old son is the true test. He loves everything he’s ordered. He even said it’s the best hot chocolate he’s ever had. For the latest menu, we have tried it all. All of it is sensational!! My husband loves the Cook’s Old Fashion to drink. I love their espresso martini. Last night we had the Bourbon Street Blackened Bird, Zephyr’s Ziti, Big Al’s Pork Tenderloin, and one of their staples, The Grilled Hanger Steak. If you’re looking for a new place to try,

I love a brunch place that does the classic dishes with a twist, and this is that place. The eggs Benedict I ordered were called like Bawg eggs Benedict? They were layered with collard greens and like, a pulled pork and so good. My husband's breakfast came with a biscuit and that was great too and we liked how the portion sizes fit the prices. The menu seems to change because the pictures I saw online are slightly different from what we got. Like the ube pancakes were nowhere in the menu, but everything sounded and looked great! Only gave it 4 stars since after plates arrived, we weren't checked on. We totally get it, our server was busy busting out all these fancy looking drinks. He was super nice and attentive before that though. We will definitely be back to try something else. And also

We had an absolutely amazing dinner at Cooks Tavern tonight! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was warm and inviting with great atmosphere and creative flair. The Moroccan-themed menu was incredible — bold, balanced flavors that were both unique and delicious. We especially loved the Moroccan dishes (that spice blend was 🔥). Huge shoutout to Andy, who made our experience exceptional with his friendly service and great recommendations — he really elevated the whole evening! If you’re looking for an unforgettable meal with fantastic food and top-notch service, Cooks Tavern is a must-try. We’ll definitely be back!
