Was recommended to try the MDC since it was my first time and wowww so impressed. Not only the food is great, location is convenient and the service is impeccable.

It was a great experience on the food and the staffs definitely added the touch for us to come back again! Thanks Javier and Ray!

Great burger joint in the heart of Irvine!…read more Upon entering, the establishment is typical of a fast-casual food joint, with a small storefront and a good amount of tables to seat parties of varying sizes. Their menu is easy to read with options galore, from different types of smash burgers to even vegan options (very surprised to see this). Upon entering the establishment, you can expect to order and receive your food relatively quickly. I got the Mooyah burger and a side of fries. The fries were crispy and paired well with the burger. The burger was pleasant, savory, and plentiful. It definitely scratched my itch on smash-burgers. I will definitely be returning for another smash-burger soon! Highly recommend to those in the area looking for a solid spot on smash-burgers!

At the recommendation of my daughter, I drove 30+ miles to try this cheesesteak spot! I ordered (3)…read moredouble double meat and cheese cheesesteaks. They were all awesome. Despite driving back for over 1 hour, the cheesesteaks were delicious. They contained lots of meat and lots of cheeses. I had them add mushrooms to my steak. It was really delicious, tender, warm, and flavorful! I would definitely eat there again.

Well, if I want a ground beef sandwich, I know where to come…read more I hadn't eaten here in around a year because the last time I did, I was disappointed with the quality and taste issues with both the cheesesteaks and the fries that accompanied the seeming change in management. The cheesesteaks that used to be full to the brim had then been stingy and the fries reeked and tasted of oil that had been reused wayy too many times. To add insult to injury, the prices had jacked up a ton. But, before hitting a road trip, we decided this would be one step above fast food so decided to give this place another shot. Huge mistake. Somehow, and at some point, someone decided that the steak that goes inside the cheeseSTEAK could be swapped with what looks, tastes, and feels like ground beef. True story. From the crumbly texture when chewing, the watery taste that could stem from what I think was a hurried attempt to semi-boil and/or thaw frozen meat, and the fact that 25% of the meat fell every time I took a bite, I'm almost certain they are using ground beef. At a minimum, it is clear they switched their meat and it is not for the better. I can only speculate that it was in response to complaints of stingy meat because they had filled our sandwiches to the brim with this meat. Unfortunately I'm going to be permanently removing this from my list of food options. This experience has even compelled me to write a review when I have not in quite some time. Wow.

The atmosphere is perfect if you're looking for a spot with delicious food and a relaxed, casual vibe. The service was excellent--specifically Natalie, who was incredibly helpful. I asked her for her take on the Miso Burger, and her description was spot on and helped me decide it was exactly what I was looking for. We did have a bit of a wait for the food, but honestly, it was expected given what we ordered, and the quality made it well worth it. Also, don't sleep on the Meyer Lemon Aioli; it was the perfect pairing with the fries. Definitely a solid go-to for a casual meal

My wife and I have been here quite a few times now, and it's always delicious. After The Counter…read moreclosed nearby, I really needed a new local burger place when I had a burger craving, and The Cut delivers. I either order The Cut (yes, the $40 burger and fries) or I make my own bleu cheese burger depending on my mood. I'll cut to the chase: is the $40 burger worth it? If you've got $40 to spare and you like burgers, I think it's definitely worth it. I mean, I've had it probably three or four times now, and I'm not some kind of moron who likes setting money on fire (I hope), so it must be good, right? What's unique about it? Basically everything, but obviously the patty of meat is the star of the show, with a unique taste and texture that makes it stand out from a normal ground beef patty, and the cheese is no slouch either. The only negative is that my wife bullies me into ordering it so she can steal a few bites. The regular fries and sweet potato fries are also great. My wife got a steak with her caesar salad one time, and that was delicious too. We usually have the same waiter since we come around the same time/day every time, and he's always great. They also always have a great selection of beers on tap, today they had three different West Coast IPAs and I felt like a kid in a candy store... yum! Normally when writing a review I can come up with some sort of complaint to balance things out, but not really in this case. I mean, I could whine that the burger is $40, but no one is forcing me to buy it (except for my wife). All in all, I think this is one of the best places in Irvine to have a pint of beer and a good meal.

I can't believe we haven't had the cut before. And the sauces, I want more sauces…read more I'm bias for what I had. The blue cheese burger with amazing blue cheese sauce, carmelized onions. Bbq sauce with medium rare burger - oh my sweet and tartness! Absolute melt in your mouth delishness. And sweet potato fries were the perfect addition to the savory meal. I cannot wait have my leftovers today. My other half had the double smash cheese burger with regular fries. He'd try different side next time. But the Caesar dressing for the salad was amazing with homemade croutons. So let's discuss sauces. Three thousand island - yowsa- and house the cut sauce - my blue cheese sauce - and the ranch dressing! I want more things to dip in the sauces. Next time we will dine in and try more. Definitely a smash hit for a Friday night.
