Cork Dork is a haven for all people who love food, cocktails & wine. Curating the menu is Danny Amirian, a born and raised Westlake local who brings his fresh approach to cooking back to the Conejo Valley. Danny’s menu is small, but will always be changing to focus on local farms and purveyors’ best available product. Danny cooks from the heart and his passion will show on the plate. For drinks we offer boutique wines and local sourced craft cocktails. If you are a beginner and just enjoy a glass, starting to learn. All wines are available in 2oz, 5oz, and bottle formats so you can try multiple items in one sitting. Our liquor selection is curated with small CA distilleries matching Chef Danny’s local approach.

We visited Cork Dork for the first time to celebrate my aunt’s birthday as a party of 4. Making a reservation was easy and we were immediately seated at a very good spot when we arrived.
They have a fine tuned selection of Mediterranean inspired American food, all of which seems to rotate often. We really liked that their menu was digital on iPads for everyone at the table.
The staff were all very personable and cordial, took the time to explain their system & answer any questions we had and went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of.
We first ordered drinks and they had an amazing selection to choose from between beer, wine, and cocktails. The food was great! All the seafood was fresh, all of the meat was cooked perfectly, and everything tasted delicious. We highly recommend the Crispy Cauliflower, the Wagyu Hangar Steak, and the Beef Skewers.
Prices for the food and drinks was to be expected for the quality of food/experience, roughly $30-$50 per person on the conservative side.
Overall it was a great experience and we highly recommend anyone in the area to visit for a meal.

At the Cork Dork, you can expect great service and delicious food. Their Branzino is the best dish on their menu. It’s incredibly delicious, and what makes it unique is the creamy brown sauce they add on top.
We’ve tried many branzino dishes all over the world and this one is simply THE BEST!

I invited my friends here to celebrate just that, our friendship. They suggested this restaurant based on someone’s previous visit experience.
I was immediately impressed by the quick reservation confirmation and being led to the back of the restaurant, a section I had requested during reservation. A very impressive, and efficient team who serviced our table, on par with the best restaurants. From your water glass repeatedly refilled, to order taking, to delivering meals by servers to the correct people without asking who ordered this or that…the same with drinks. The mixed drinks were very good, the appetizers, and the main course was good as well. It’s a limited menu that changes periodically I believe. The food isn’t OMG type but it was good and the whole experience felt complete. It felt like a special night.

My wife & I had a chef-curated valentine’s meal here & it was honestly one of the best meals I’ve ever eaten! Perfectly-cooked, superb flavors, & the cocktails were also great. Will definitely be back to see what the regular menu is like!

I had a wonderful dinner here. The wine list was good and the cocktail menu is great too. Wines can be ordered in 6oz or 2oz for just a taste. The prices are surprisingly reasonable for the area.
Everything was delicious. The broccolini starter was excellent, and the baba’s chicken entree was very good. It was nicely seasoned, but I thought it could’ve used a touch more salt, but I think that about everything. My dining partner ordered the Dork Burger and loved it (and disagreed with me about the chicken needing salt!).
I also want to call out the amuse-bouche – I was amused! It was a mini naan with some hummus and a single fried chickpea. Honestly it might’ve been my favorite item I ate, I thought it was so delicious.
For desert we split a banana bread pudding. I will always order a bread pudding if it’s on the desert menu, and this was a very good one.
Overall, this is among my very favorite restaurants that I’ve been in TO, and I intend to return.

Cork Dork is one of the very best restaurants in the Thousand Oaks, CA area. The food and ingredients are hand-picked and farm-fresh; the menu is unique, tasty, and superbly presented, and the decor and atmosphere are high-end and cozy. The staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about wines and specialties. We have eaten there many times and continue to be surprised and delighted! Simply put: a great restaurant! Try it – you won’t be sorry. To the contrary, you will be delighted. We are delighted each and every time.

I can be picky. Sometimes nice restaurants are overpriced and overhyped.
This is not one of those places.
The food here is incredible. The service warm, welcoming, and friendly.
The wine list and recommendations are superb.
Five out of five, I will be back.

Good but not great and a bit overpriced. Very artfully prepared dishes, but nothing had an amazing taste or flavor. Yellowtail starter was ok, sweet potato gnocchi didn’t have the distinct brown butter taste I was hoping for – probably overpowered by the mushrooms, squash risotto was the best item we ordered. Had been hoping to get the pistachio affogato cake, but it was unavailable so we got the s’mores tart which didn’t look anything like the picture – maybe a different item? The “We don’t have an espresso machine martini” was probably the highlight as it tasted excellent with only their house made espresso syrup – very smooth. The tablet menu is a great idea, but be aware that the menu can change, so what you see on their website may not be what’s available that day. Service and atmosphere were very good. “Outdoor” seating is a tented part of the parking lot, so I was glad we were seated inside.

Me and my bf are foodies. I continually saw Cork Dork on open table so we decided to give it a try. It was PHENOMENAL! While it is a smaller place, it was refreshing to be able to book reservations via open table 15 minutes before 8pm on a Friday night. We got say immediately. The menu is small but complex. We shared an appetizer and both entrees. The street corn risotto and the skirt steak with noodles. Everything was amazing. The portion sizes and flavors were on point!!!! We also ordered dessert. My bf hates chocolate- I ordered the chocolate dessert. It looked so good he tried it- AND LOVED IT! It almost brought me to tears since I am such a huge chocolate lover and was able to share it with him! He also got the lemon dessert- which was fresh and delicious. 10/10 this is one of my new favorite places !!!!!
