Cooper's Central Table & Cocktail — Restaurant in Norwalk

Nestled on a quiet highway among the newly developed strip mall is a diversified group friendly small restaurant from a well known portfolio of top notched eateries is Cooper’s Central Table & Cocktail with minimalist trendy decor. Parking in front on the bicycle strip is an option with plenty of parking in the back and a patio on the side. Entry during the early opening gives off the sound of hustle bustle with every effort to welcome casually dressed guests to a clean ADA spaced environment. The menu prices are above average with a specifically chosen venue of delectable choices that suit the clientele in the area. My order consisted of an eye appealing presentation of a Lemon Lime Tart layered between a dollop of whipped cream and key lime between small cookies size sheets of tasty cakes. Eating my sweets with my food — the cup of bean soup and cream filled egg-rolls are an acquired taste— in my opinion — for others to enjoy — with a fresh colorful tasty side parm salad. My wait staff Aliesha C. —- whom seemed puzzled because my unusual spoken word is to order my dessert, salad and entree all at once because my palate desires to taste each dish randomly for that ultimate foodie satisfaction repeated my request. The General Manager did a check in which allowed me to express my appreciation for the well prepared selections specifically the top notch well portioned beefy Junction Burger which scored exquisitely on flavor, presentation and taste. Yet, my favorite part of the whole meal was the flavor bomb Key Lime Tart which tunneled a symphony of flavors making me want to say “ where...

Parked in the lot behind the restaurant adjoining the hotel. If you go through the rear entrance you have to walk to the front to be seated by the hostess. We came in around 12:30 for lunch, today, and they let us know immediately that only one side of the menu was available--appetizers, soups/salads, and burgers/sandwiches.

We ordered the Eggroll of the Day to start. Today, it was filled with roast beef and mashed potatoes. It was absolutely delicious! It was hot, crispy, and the filling was like the perfect bite of Thanksgiving. As for entrées, he got the burger, I got the Meatloaf Meltdown (Cooper's Style). The burger was a perfect smash burger. The hand-cut fries were fantastically meaty on the inside and crispy on the outside. The open-faced meatloaf sandwich seemed simple but the flavors had major impact! I took a lot of the tomato glaze off because it didn't need much--the Cajun seasoning really shined in the meatloaf. Everything was great here--food, atmosphere, service (Danny was great!) Definitely stop in if you're...

Cooper's on 5th is my favorite restaurant. This new Cooper 's comparatively is lacking. It seemed to be missing some of the menu items. There was less food on the plates or maybe their plates are larger. It felt like there was something missing on the plates. Some of the food was good but the substitute chicken for my burger was very bad. Something was wrong with it, several people at the table confirmed this. The service was okay but was missing the friendliness the original Cooper has. The waitress actively avoided looking at our table, when we just wanted a refill on a drink, until our food came out, which took a long time. Although the place was not busy at all. They did take the chicken off the bill but still charged me for the fries that came with it. I won't be going back to this Cooper's again, just stick to the...
