    For our 33rd anniversary, we visited Cuts in downtown Atlanta for the first time. The restaurant has a charming, classic steakhouse ambiance with a quiet and inviting atmosphere. Our waiter, David, was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and well-versed in the menu and preparation of the dishes. The spinach dip paired with homemade chips was outstanding. My Prime Ribeye was incredibly tender, practically melting in my mouth, while my wife's salmon was quite good. We finished the meal with their Peach Cobbler, which was fantastic. Overall, it was an excellent experience with amazing food.

    The food and ambiance were a one of a kind experience. Very rarely do I experience food that brings out an emotion of such joy and surprise and this place brought that without any hype or expectation. Our server was fun, friendly, and read the table perfectly with great timing and great knowledge of the food and place. This place is worth the trip from half way across the country. Well worth the price as well. The complementary valet parking was a lovely surprise for us as well. Spent around $100 to $150 for each person but had 2 to 3 cocktails each to go with each part of our meal. The menu apparently changes with the season. I cannot wait to return again!

    We had an amazing time! The decor, the view, the elegance, the service was all spectacular! When you arrive to the elevator up , you are warnly greated by a hostess. Once you arrive upstairs, you are once again greated by a warm friendly smile. Once seated the people that serve are all warm and friendly. They made our visit truly unforgettable. We were dining with 2 children 6, 12. They made us all feel like we were family. The highlight of the visit was the waitress. I cannot remember her name, she had curly hair and siad she worked there for 41 years. What an amazing asset to this restaurant. She was entertaining, friendly, funny and really good at what she does! We will return just to see her! The food was PHENOMENAL. We ordered the filet mignion which was delicious. My wife ordered the Keto dish and left the plate empty. The kids ordered pizza, and us being native New Yorkers were amazed how good it tasted! We will be returning for sure. Yes the price was rather high but worth every penny!
