We came to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday. They were able to accommodate us with a booth request. They had a special menu with the words ‘happy birthday’ on his menu, cute touch. Our server, Brett, was phenomenal. Every dish we ordered he explained to the T, so no unknown surprises. He saw I was taking photos and grabbed another candle for me! Great experience once again. We love coming here and can’t wait for next years new menu! Cheers!

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.
