Had reservations and once I arrived for this date night they set us in a high table... not friendly at all... I asked them to move us and they advised they didn't have any other seats... but it was an area that was reserved and I asked them to put us there as they would be closing soon. So they did. Food - Tomahawk and two lobster tails was good. Burger was just a little undercooked for my taste. Not bad for a local spot... steak seemed a bit small compared to other restaurants. 18% gratuity included and you get to pay 3.5% for credit card usage... they petty for that... Most likely won't return. I'll try and find another comparable spot this way first. Price per person $100+ Food: 4 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 4

We visited for the first time back on Halloween night to celebrate my husband's birthday which was the next day. I had heard wonderful things about this place from a client of mine. My husband loves a good steak so I took him. The location is nice but the parking is not that great. It's a very small parking area need near the restaurant but it was full so we parked near by at a she parking lot. The walk isn't too bad unless it's cold or raining. We were greeted right away and we was sat soon after. Mike was our server and he was great. The food came out in a ok time. Everything was delicious. I had a speciality martini and it was good. My only complaint was that the parmesan crust that we had added to the steak seemed over cooked. We was still able to enjoy our food but it would have been better if that was cooked a little less. All the sides were super delicious and the turtle cheesecake was to die for. Best I've had ever. We plan to return again real soon. Hopefully our experience this 2nd time is even better then the first. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner and it was AMAZING from apps to dessert! Props to our waitress, Elena, for not only being attentive but giving great recommendations. French martinis and Apple cobbler was so good! Our main entree was a parmesan crusted wagyu and filet mignon which we couldn’t stop raving about. They made a special touch and wrote out Happy Birthday with a fruit purèe on his dessert dish. Thank you to your staff for making it a great night! We will definitely be back for another night out!

Had the Prime Rib. Very good. The potatoes au gratin were super rich. I should have gotten a baked potato. I started the evening with a brandy old fashion , it came garnished with luxardo cherries. I upgraded the soup to French Onion. It was very good. The key lime pie was a perfect finish to the meal. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+ Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Went to celebrate a milestone birthday. Ambience was nice but the experience lacked overall. While trying to find parking the hostess made me wife and son wait to be seated until the “entire party was there” even though the restaurant was at 20-25% capacity at best. When seated, we were immediately told that there was a 2 hour limit to seating. The place is almost completely empty but okay, fine. Waitress rushed through orders and asked for appetizer and entree order simultaneously. Staff asked about taking our plates and wrapping food multiple times despite only just receiving food items and while very clearly still eating. Food was decent but all steaks were under cooked against what was ordered and bland to taste. At meal close, waitress asked about dessert and despite our polite decline, was very insistent because it was “chocolate fest” and we could get a “golden ticket” but only if we ordered dessert. She even told us we could take it to go. However, we again declined and presented payment. Upon returning with the receipt, the waitress informed us AFTER the fact, that 18% gratuity was automatically charged (this was for 2 adults and a 7yo child mind you and NOT a party of 6+ as is customary) and an additional 3.5% was added for use of a credit card. To the owners, please note that gratuity is defined as follows “something given voluntarily or beyond obligation usually for some service.” Perhaps pay your employees fairly and not through forced customer assistance. Overall, this experience severely lacked and not remotely worth the $309 bill. I could have easily made better cocktails and steaks at home for far less. Will not be going back.

So to start of we showed up 10 minutes before our reservation and we were seated right away- our food was timed perfectly and the salads came out as soon as the appetizer was finished and the main course not too long after. Our waiter was quick to refill our drinks, our meat was cooked perfectly and the food itself was absolutely delicious! We have told so many people about it already and it has even made it into my husband's preaching illustration lol. I have never seen my husband eat so much food in his life- The sides (we got the garlic whipped potatoes, potatoes augratin, and broccolini )could literally serve 3 people each, they're huge! Dessert was delicious, we ate every bite! He got key lime pie and I the tiramisue. We will definitely be coming back!

The tomahawk and tails were beyond my expectations. The steak was perfectly cooked, and the lobster tails were excellent. Augratin potatoes were perfect, not to mention the French onion and crab bisque soups. And definitely recommend the amazing carrot cake. A special meal for a special occasion.

The filet mignon was melt in your mouth delicious and the sides were big enough for two to share. Our meals came with fresh baked bread and soup or salad. Trish was our server, and she was friendly and fast. She always came by at the perfect time. Even our neighbor table was very pleasant! We went here for our anniversary. We were lucky to get a seat! I highly recommend making a reservation in advance. It was a pricey place, but worth every penny. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

This was my first time dinning at Primal Cut and it was great. The server Mike was great and also the guy that was helping him clean and remove plates. The food was outstanding and very generous portions, we took a lot home. The only problem was they have a small parking lot so it was kind of hard to find close parking. But I will definitely visit again soon. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Rib

We were there last night as I'd made dinner reservations a month prior for that day. It was his birthday dinner as well. Well the service sucked...Everything that came out was barely warm, just warm. We only had one silverware set, the bread came out late and only when we asked for some. Also, his steak wasn't seared right, everyone else's food was coming out before ours-I'm talking about the people who were sat maybe 15-20 minutes after we were finally able to place our orders. Btw, though we had dinner reservations at 6pm last night, we weren't sat intil 6:20 ish...(We ordered our meals straight away, when our waitress finally showed up that is)...Just not a great time. Any grammar errors in my review, so be it. The only reason I didn't give it 1 star was because I was amongst great company and those long wait times made for more conversation time.
