   Starters were the mussels and clams which was outstanding !!and Brussels sprouts also very good. The pork chop was fantastic, great spice and flavour. Server was very attentive, funny and great suggestions all around. A bit pricey but overall no disappointments here.

   Wait staf was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and kind. The made a custom flight of scotch for my husband’s birthday, went over the menu thoroughly for GF the options for his celiac, and even put a candle in his steak! He absolutely loved his birthday dinner 💗

   Our service was very good. Unfortunately our meat was raw in the middle after ordering it medium and it was a $300 steak. Big disappointment

   Cocktails were delicious. The bone in pork chop was huge, and enough for two people. It was also one of the best pieces of pork I have had in years--juicy and perfectly cooked.

   This was our first time at Ballard Cut and we really loved it. The food was really quite good, the service was excellent and the ambience was nice on a Wednesday evening. Our only complaint is that we wish they would indicate which menue items are gluten free. Otherwise not complaints, hight recommended.

   We had an awesome night at The Ballard Cut. The cauliflower and pork belly apps were super delicious; our mains (the halibut and porchetta) were unique and well seasoned; we had curated whiskey flight that was delicious and educational and don’t sleep on the sticky toffee pudding! Definitely will be back!

    Amazing whiskey selection and recommendations. Always my go to place for a flight and some tasty food. Happy hour I would always suggest the pork belly and the katsu sliders.
