CUT was an ideal setting for a family celebration of two birthdays -- the ambiance lively and intimate, the service excellent and the food absolutely delicious. Every steak was cooked to perfection. The table was split between the Bearnaise and the Red Wine Bordelaise sauces. We enjoyed a variety of side dishes. The Mendoza Farms brussel sprouts with pine nuts and grapes was a favorite, along with the roasted honeynut squash with saffron curry and pomegranate. We'll be back to explore the rest of the menu!
