Had dinner at Cut while in LA before the Dixie Chicks/Eagles show. This certainly is a beautiful restaurant with sleek lines, lighting, and sparse, elegant decor. Service is fantastic and treated us so well. The wine list was decent and we were pleased. Had the wagyu porterhouse which was cut at the table for $75. I must say that as far as flavor is concerned, the steak did not measure up. It was mostly flavorless, pretty fatty and made acceptable by the addition of sauces. Also rather bland were the Yukon puree potatoes. We ordered cauliflower which was burnt when we received it and very bland. I think for the taste and certainly the money, you can't go wrong with Flemings. Cut lightened my wallet by $400 bucks and left me wondering if I did so for only the wine. Cut is in a good location at the Beverly Wilshire and had great people-watching. I only advise that you think twice before thinking this is the best steak you care to drop your dough on.
Pros: Decor, service
Cons: Price, bland food
