Naimas daytoy! Namit namit gid! I wrote a comprehensive review of this wonderful restaurant in Trip Advisor.

Love the early 20th century art deco motiff, food and drinks pretty good too Raclette tray next time :

Food is sumptuous and savory. The retro atmosphere is very felt to the bones. The time that we went there was acoustic night, nonetheless the band deliver a pretty melody. Thanks Black Fork!

Overall: Great food, cozy interiors, and friendly hosts! Ambience (Rating 5/5) Great music, the place was clean and inviting. Great place to work or meet with friends and family! Staff and Service (Rating 5/5) Polite, friendly, and always at the ready. They served our food promptly. Food (Overall Rating 4.5/5) Grilled Chops (Rating 5/5) picture below They asked for our preferred doneness, to which we chose medium. They served the pork cooked perfectly, just very slightly pinkish and not the least bit overcooked. They had a smoky grilled flavor, were juicy and succulent, and went perfect along with the sweet and salty rice. Plus, the best part of the dish was the small apple slices cooked in an herb sauce. These went perfect with the pork. A match made in heaven! Prawn Aglio Olio (Rating 4/5) Good tasting pasta, slightly bland but they provide Parmesan cheese and chili bits which enhance the flavor marvelously. The prawns were delicious. They were fresh, large, and peeled, which makes it easier for people like me who are lazy to remove the shell. Black Fork Benedict Burger (Rating 4/5) Great tasting burger, the beef is very rich in flavor. The homemade bun is a little too dense for my liking, but the hollandaise sauce tied it nicely with the burger patty. The beef was slightly overcooked and charred at the bottom but the taste was great. It made it obvious that the beef cut used to make the burger was of premium quality as you can really taste the beef instead of just the seasoning (which is the con of the usual burger joints). Great place to go back, again and again with friends and family!

The first thing I noticed here is their elegant interiors. They also have alfresco dining which is unique along Maginhawa street. Kudos to their designers. : Now with the food, I was able to try their specialties, Chicken Magnum (has three sauces: Marinara, Lime, Garlic Parmesan , and their Truffled Carbonara. The dishes went well with the red wine (yes, they serve alcoholic beverages here . Staff were nice, too. They also have a display of different cakes for people who have sweet tooth. As of 2019, they’re open from Wednesday to Sunday, though.
