When I mention service was poor I’m not talking about our table server as she was great. I’m talking about your hostess who was rude and your front of house is our first impression. Food was good.
I brought out of town friends for dinner and they absolutely raved about the food! The oysters on a half shell with dipping sauces were especially wonderful!
Always simple but delicious high quality menu in great NW ocean vibe setting. Never disappointed. Great wine choices by the glass as well. Not inexpensive but I feel there is value in consistent excellent service and food. And seafood / fish isn’t the easiest to find in Dallas done right!
Great food to mark our anniversary.
Everything was great, especially the food and Jorge, our server. We are going back this weekend to do it all over again..
We had a late reservation, bartender was great. Manager did turn the lights up all of the way while we were mid entree. Bartender had said we were OK. Make sure you leave by 9.
We will be back to see the bartender, just early, even on a Thursday.
Great food and great service
Fantastic meal, fantastic service, great setting for a night out.
Food and ambiance was stellar. The restaurant failed to accommodate some simple special occasion request.
We celebrated an important event at Montlake Cut. The staff was friendly and welcoming.
The specials all sound so great it is hard to choose. Service was lively and efficient. We’ve only had good experiences here — highly recommend
We had an early reservation and loved sitting in the front... no crowds yet. They are careful with social distancing. We appreciate that they did fried oysters for us!
Another great Nick B. Restaurant. Great staff, customer service, ambience with amazing food and drinks. If you love seafood this one of the best.
This is one of our very favorite spots. They are consistently excellent.
Best oysters I have ever had! Noise level was a bit loud for me but otherwise a perfect evening!
Montlake Cut is an excellent dining experience. The only area for improvement might be having to wait a little while on your table.
The variety of menu offerings is very good and the food itself is excellent. Drink offerings is also very good. Service is excellent and if your server is Debbie you are in for outstanding service!
Food was bomb..the whole roasted fish was fantastic, the clam chowder was really good the smoked salmon was great.
Very good service.
I don’t know how this place has been in Dallas since 2014 and we had never heard of it. It has been put into our rotation. The Milanese was delish. The wedge salad was cold, crisp & fresh. And the key lime parfait was like the cherry on too!!!
Great Seafood.
Montlake Cut never disappoints.
Felt like we are on a clock to eat and leave our table. Not a relaxing dining experience.
We had a great evening at Montlake Cut. The staff (host, wait, kitchen, bar) all went out of their way to accommodate us and ensure a fun experience. Appetizers: crudo fish, crispy shrimp, and chicken nugs were all good; I'd rank them in that order. Spicy fish tacos + fish/chips + asparagus came out nicely. The cocktail serving seemed larger than most restaurants. Everything was on point. Mostly, though, we appreciate the good people who work at MC.
Our waiter Jorge was terrific and very personable. The food was so flavorful. My only complaint would be the it was quite loud once the distanced tables were full. It was hard to hear across the table at times. We loved the ambiance of the restaurant and will go again.
First visit to Montlake Cut. We will definitely go back. Food was delicious, cocktails great, service (Debbie) was terrific.
Fabulous as always.
New Year’s Eve dinner. They worked really hard with the 50% occupancy restrictions and were able to get us in. Ate at chefs counter which wasn’t ideal but Andrea was fantastic! Highly recommend!
Best oysters in Dallas. Great overall seafood. Professional service.
Food was outstanding and came out quick and hot. Everything was so fresh we ordered the Hamachi, wedge salad, fish tacos and Mac and cheese. Debbie was our waitress and she was very pleasant!
It was so great, we went back again the next night!
allways great!
Our first time here, and definitely will be back. Service and food was excellent. Very enjoyable evening!
This was our first time here. The food and service were amazing. We will be back.
Always fabulous. The food and service are fantastic and we love the bar.
Always Always Outstanding! Julia, Andrew and Sarah are perfection and the food is spectacular!!!!
Best and most fresh seafood in Dallas. Their Milanese preparation is fantastic. Excellent wine list and cocktails as well. Always a great experience.
Debbie is the best server in Dallas!
Great food, excellent service, and quiet ambiance. Always a great place for a date night!!
Debbie was outstanding and we had a memorable meal at MC. Thank you! Happy thanksgiving!
This place is just the best! Every time it doesn't disappoint! Definitely one of our favorite restaurants in Dallas! Oysters, all the fishes, ceviche and the crab fried rice with is a MUST everytime! Can't wait to go back again!!!
Excellent food but felt extremely rushed. Heard this same comment from other friends.
