| - On the basis of strong recommendations, we chose Cut for my wife's birthday visit. I can say that it lived up to my expectations: if you only have one steak this year, you'll want to order it at Cut.
I opted for the three-course tasting menu, which gives you the chance to sample all thee types of beef. Once you get to the hybrid or Waygu portions, you won't be able to look at the USDA choice the same way (it's sort of like flying first class). Our side was the brussels sprouts, and I started with the beet salad. Dessert was strawberry stratageliata and a chocolate fudge brownie. I'm not a huge dessert person, but these were phenomenal.
About the only thing that detracted from our meal was when a party of six kids dressed in shorts & spray-on tans was led to a nearby table, and we noticed one of them was carrying a six-pack of Coors which was consumed during their meal. Yes, I get it that Vegas does not adhere to strict standards of etiquette, and this group probably had more money than Croesus, but it put a damper on our dining experience. For the amount of money that one pays at Cut, I would think the bar could be raised a bit higher.
