    Baby back ribs with wilbur beans, cornbread muffin and mac & cheese.
    Robert W.

    We always have Famous Dave's to go at least several times a month. Every meat is smoked and cooked to perfection. The sides are always great in flavor and taste. Highly recommended and is recognized as one of the best barbecue places around.

    Burnt cornbread
    R W.

    This right here is unacceptable. This pan of cornbread should have been thrown out and remade. It should not have been served to customers.

Thank the Lord we were only a few doors down, we never would have made it in our heels. My reservation that I made changed 3 times, only to add more people to our reservation that same day. Never once did they complain or state that they could not accommodate us. Once we all trickled in, it was about 18 people. Our tables were ready. I believe our waitress name was Jude, but nonetheless, she definitely was a jewel. She informed us that they were short staff, but she would take our orders. She accommodated every single one of us, never messing up or mixing up the orders, when ask for extras, she got them out immediately and to add to all of this the food was excellent. If you ever get a chance to stop by Studio Four29 I highly recommend it, not just for the food, but also the service. Bravo to our waitress she was on point. Sorry no pictures, by the time we thought about it, you would've just had pictures of empty plates.

The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful and feels high end, but it didn't carry that snobby feel. The service was outstanding and everyone was so friendly and accommodating. We split a pepperoni flatbread to start. It was so light and crispy. A perfect appetizer that didn't sit too heavy, but tasted delicious! We got scallops, gnocchi, and the filet for our meals and everything was absolutely delicious (we all shared bites of course). The filet tasted like it was straight off a wood fired grill. The meat was a great quality and the sauce was delicious. The gnocchi was made with a pesto that wasn't over powering. It was very light and reminded us of caprese a lot with the flavors! The crab cake was light and not full of bready fillers. Delicious. Overall we are excited to come back as the menu rotates, so lots of new things to try! Would highly recommend.

She took so long to take our drink order after we sat down, that we were ready to order our food when she came around. After she took our drink and food order, we waited 15 mins, and still no drinks. I actually had to ask another waitress for water. When our waitress came by we reminded her about not getting our drinks yet and she copped an attitude and was like "we were busy, yeah I asked someone else to bring the water". Ok. No need to be rude. Thankfully the food was good, so at least that was enjoyable. Our waitress never came by once to check up on us, as we watched other waitresses be more attentive at other tables. Honestly I've had better service at McDonald's. That's embarrassing for a restaurant like The Cut where food prices are not cheap. I'm sure it was just this one individual that was performing poorly, but it left us with a bad experience where we simply don't want to come back, and take our business elsewhere.
