The Twisted Cork

Great downtown restaurant that I love taking people to when they are new to town. The architecture and atmosphere are second to none. The prime rib on Friday nights is always delicious. That said, I was very disappointed with my lunch experience there. Steak salad was made with rusty and wilty lettuce with very few toppings. Definitely needed improvement.

The food and atmosphere are outstanding. Quality of the food is terrific. Most of the meals are well balanced, fresh and flavourful. The service and atmosphere are really great for a quiet date or intimate dinner with some friends.

I am going to sound like a schill in this review as I was just so impressed. Surprisingly delicious food at a reasonable price. My ribs were huge and done perfectly. The cornbread had jalapeños adding another dimension to this side dish. There were at least 2 different types of beans used in the baked beans and I thoroughly enjoyed them. Even the garlic mashed potatoes were exceptional.

A fantastic place in PG. Great food, great service!!! If I am ever back in PG, I will definitely be back here.

Loved this place! I had the White Wine Sangria with my entrée of the Phyllo Bundle and topped off the meal with the Double Chocolate Budino. Everything was delicious and the atmosphere was relaxed. The dessert was quite rich so I probably would've been satisfied with a smaller portion (it was pre-made, so only one size), but overall I was pleased with the quality and quantity of the food.

Twisted Cork reviewThey’re organic greens salad was big and beautiful and fresh. We found the house dressing bland so next time I would ask for a different drssing, but the quality in the greens was definitely there.We were hungry, so I forgot to take pictures until so I’d already started the salad.We got the tapas board And everythingwas very nice, the bread they supplied were very nice quality baguette slices and all the picked vegetables, meat slices and olives were tasty.Really wonderful menu, there’s so many things I wanted to try that will definitely have to come back again. The décor is beautiful, very old school, Beautiful oak paneling, subdue tones, exposed brick walls, very comfortable, relaxing atmosphere.Our server Alanna was very friendly, efficient and pleasant.. the best service we have had at a restaurant in Prince George so far, and it was moderately busy but she was still attentive and very quick to fulfil any of our request such as the extra butter I wanted for the bread and brie cheese.Hector got the chicken breast stuffed with seafood including lobster, and he really enjoyed it, said the flavor of the sauce was excellent and the combination of lobster and cream cheese with the chicken worked really well.I got the bread, brie cheese and roasted garlic.. bread was excellent, fresh with good chew, the baked brie was very nice but the roasted garlic wasn’t baked enough and wouldn't spread and still had a bit of a bitter raw flavor. Our server took the half head of garlic back for more roasting, and ended up bringing a new serving of the baked garlic Head but it was the same, but I didn't bother to say anything as I was satisfied with the brie cheese and bread.We ordered the lamb spring rolls, but in my opinion, they did not live up to their description, I could only taste the lamb and I don’t like some flavors of lamb and I didn’t like these. However, Hector really liked them so he had them.We were in the small lounge area, a very nice cozy feeling room, but I found the chairs too low and deep to for the table so I asked for one of the dining room chairs, which Alanna was very quick to take care of. They were somewhat better, but their dining room chairs had a high edge at the front of the chair that cut off the circulation of my legs over the course of the evening so I end up switching back to a lounge chair which wasn't quite the right for sitting at the table, but overall more comfortable.Overall, they have a great menu, wonderful ambiance, received excellent service from Alanna. But like most places, some of their menu items are great, but some are so, so, you have to experiment. Personally, I am quite willing to send a dish back if it isn’t satisfactory but it sends Hector into a seething rage when I do that and he really liked the lamb spring rolls, so nothing got sent back. I couldn’t send back the roasted garlic, really because I ate& enjoyed all the cheese and the bread and it would have ben petty on my part to complain a second time. The had some type of sauce drizzled on the bread, that really went well with the cheese.We will probably come back for one more meal while we are staying in Prince George, they had some other things I definately wanted to try.The front of the building is really beautiful architecture, I would be curious to know if it this building was a restored original building for Prince George.

Service was excellent. Atmosphere is pretty cool. The food is overpriced and just OK.

Stopped here for lunch and loved the food and service! Also very nice interior, exterior and all in all great experience! Had the 'pick 4' for lunch which was plenty to eat and a good deal.

Wow! Great atmosphere. Great food. The service was fantastic! Highly recommend if you're ever around the area.

We love the twisted cork. Always great food and amazing service. We continue to choose the twisted cork for our date night and when we have company visiting from out of town.Always make a reservation as the locals know its the best in town!Prime rib is always delicious.We recommend the sage derby cheese and maple cheddar for the tapas board.
