Expensive and pretentious. The steak was excellent and the sides were delicious. The service was great. BUT - THIS PLACE IS INSANELY EXPENSIVE!! I understand that kosher restaurants are more costly due to rabbinical supervision and higher food costs, but this place is out of bounds. Our bill for 4 people exceeded $700 and we did not order any wine or drinks, and no desserts. The ambiance was terrific - beautiful decor and furnishings. I guess it is located by Wall Street do that you can find a loan nearby to cover the dinner tab read more

I went out of my way to eat in this restaurant during COVID because I know how much the industry is hurting right now. HOWEVER, Restaurant booths were not socially distant, managers were not wearing masks/ wearing under his nose, and the ENTIRE main dining room was filled to capacity. No one at the front of house was requesting that patrons wear masks as they make their way through the restaurant. There were large groups of young 20 somethings hanging around without masks. All in all a Very very uncomfortable experience for anyone who takes COVID-19 seriously. read more

Living in Boston and trying to keep kosher we never get the chance to eat at a top steakhouse. We recently went to New York and we made sure to make a reservation. Reserve Cut was an amazing experience from the time we sat down until the time we left for the evening. I would say they rival even not Kosher Steakhouses for quality and taste of the food they serve. The service was attentive and excellent the entire night. We started with the Steak Tartare which was very good with a little kick that made it even better. The only thing I could be critical of the entire night would be the inconsistent knife cuts on the tartare but that's about it. For main we had the Reserve Cut Steak which was tender and flavorful with sides of the Shisto Peppers and Truffle French Fries, both great choices. Our dessert was their chocolate 10 ways which if you are a Chocolate lover you must save room for. Overall just a great night that makes me wish we had something like it in Boston. read more

I come to this restaurant all the time but recently there food and service is horrible. I went tonight with my daughter and she ordered chicken. The chicken was dry and tasteless and when I told the manager he was rude and not accommodating at all. He refused to take the chicken off the bill and made us feel horrible for commenting on it. read more

Good food I really like it was an amazing time with the family I had a good time and I really enjoyed

Summary: This is an expensive, beautiful and divine restaurant - my husband, I, and our 4 boys had a $250 bottle of wine, 4 soda, 4 appetizers, 6 main dishes, 5 desserts and 1 dessert wine and 1 caffe latte: total bill, including tips: $1600+. It is money well spent and we will definitely come back! Details: Excellent food and impeccable service (attentive, friendly and not stuffy). Virtually everything on the menu is good or excellent: Beef taco is slightly too sweet and too saucy, but still very good. Tuna tartar is perfectly executed with avocado! Their filet mignon is god-sent. Asparagus is good and fresh. Wagyu beef is juicy and tender, but not best valued items. Desserts are nice. The latte I had is unique and exotic. ** Don't order their French fries and mushed potatoes. They were dry and not much flavor. read more

Reserve Cut is one of the prettiest places I have ever laid my eyes on. My coworker and I recently came here to scope it out for our upcoming holiday party. The second you step off the elevator, you feel like you've entered a whole new world. The walls are red and oak, the bar is huge, the lighting is romantic. This place is simply gorgeous. We checked out all four rooms. One is the main area where lunch/dinner service is held with the bar. Another holds only 16 people but you are surrounded by endless amounts of wine! There's a larger room off to the back, but our favorite was a smaller room upfront which is perfect for a company party. The event coordinator Nelda has energy that is contagious! She's always in a good mood which in turn puts you in a good mood. They are a bit pricey but you get what you paid for. read more

Catering: I catered from RC for my party! It was fantastic except they were 30 minutes before the the scheduled time of the party- which meant they where late since they needed 1 hour to prep the food. They sent two people for the party and the food was unbelievable. Sushi was amazing- best kosher sushi in NYC hands down. Sliders were amazing and the pulled brisket tacos were amazing. Everyone ate, even my brother who is a vegan ate the meat after two years without eating meat! read more

I really like the interior atmosphere, specially the lighting and the decoration. What I don't like is that: first, it's absolutely cold inside during the winter, spoiling the experience while trying to enjoy a meal. Second, service is horrible. I had to order a soda three times and it was only until my last attempt that they finally brought it to the table. Also, a friend ordered the steak sandwich and they brought a steak salad instead, and when my friend told the waiter that his order was wrong she got mad, gave him a bad look and started giving a long explanation about his order taking a longer time to get made all over from scratch because of the miscommunication, almost blaming him for what happened. All the time that we were there the service was unattentive, unwelcoming and messy. Overall the quality of the food is not good. I think they do a great job with the appetizers, but the main entrees are nothing special. My meat was overcooked and I had ordered medium rare, it was a big cut of tasteless rib eye. Based on my friends feedback, their orders were not great either (sushi items.) I don't recommend this place. read more

Service was top notch. Filet mignon was very good. There are a lot of steak places in the city and this one is on par w the best. But my steak was a bit dry and could've been more flavorful. Quite good overall. The salmon was done better and stellar. The chocolate dessert also great in taste. Take a chance with Reserve Cut. The ambiance will make up for what's missing in flavor! read more

Went here a year ago on a date with my now husband. Sat at the bar because we were early for dinner service. Ordered a beer and two glasses of wine. Bar bill was almost $60 including tips. "Some restaurateurs believe they can get away with high markups because their customers won't notice or complain," writes WSJ wine critic Lettie Teague in an article about wine prices. The Dalton Moscato I had is priced $12 retail, but RC charges $13 a glass. When being seated, we passed by a very pretty water pond and a party room fir for a king. I think EVERY detail in this establishment was carefully considered down to the blinds (being that it's Wall Street, there is no view, and the blinds testify this). The sushi we got was okay (but others may like the sun dried part--not my taste though), but the steak, a RC Filet Minon, was delicious and memorable. French fries were good, but pricey. Because we spent so much on the food (i.e. beyond our budget, but very worth it for those who can afford), we wanted to get our money's worth, and decided to relax on the couch in the front of the restaurant. We did so for about two hours and didn't feel uncomfortable at all. RC's decor is unparalleled, and it's the primary reason we loved our time at the restaurant. The staff and waiters were extremely nice and pleasant to deal with. I don't recall any other restaurant I've ever been to providing such great service. Granted, prices were high for us, but we had a wonderful time. RC is a true class act, and a great place to bring a date or a business associate. read more

I visited this restaurant with my team at work. The restaurant had beautiful decor, friendly and professional staff, and was clean as a whistle. While the price is a tad expensive, it is definitely worth every penny. We had an amazing overall experience. The drink menu had different and interesting cocktails, along with a great wine and beer list. I ordered the Riverview, which had vodka, watermelon, strawberry and lemon. As a table, we ordered numerous appetizers and the sushi platter, which I recommend; very fresh. For my meal, I got the special, a 16oz chateaubriand with potatoes and mushrooms. It was delicious! I ate every bite. We finished off the meal with dessert and ordered a few; my favorite was the chocolate velvet cake. Also, my party was over 10 people, which usually requires a private room. The event planner was kind enough to give us two big tables next to each other, after I explained that the time and date of our party could not be flexible due to scheduling at work. Definitely will be back for future work events! read more

Attended this establishment along with my girlfriend and my parents on Valentine's Day. This place was beautiful. Rose petals lined the doorways and we requested to be seated in the wine gallery for dinner. Very professional staff. We ordered drinks as we waited at the bar for my parents. The waitress took more than 5 minutes to acknowledge us and ask what I needed which was rude. She made up for it my making our drinks strong . We got our seats and sat at a round table with good lighting. Our waiter was very attentive and explained what was available on the menu. He did show some concern about the affordability of a steak I inquired about. I wasn't insulted and insisted on it. It's in the picture below. Great steak. Kosher and medium... Truffles added a burst of flavor. Their was no foie Gras available which pissed me off but overall we had a great time. The laugh of the night came as my step fathers chair gave out as he was eating ... it was replaced but could have been a nightmare.. Overall great experience. read more

My husband took me here motzei shabbat as a prep for my upcoming birthday. Reserve Cut is located in the second floor of a half residential - half commercial building in downtown Manhattan. We made a reservation that same night about 2 hours before hour ETA and the person who picked up the phone was very pleasant and professional. Once we walked into the restaurant, we were greated in the most amicable manner; we checked our coats and we were taken to our table. Diving straight into the food: To start, we got delicious warm bread with sweet butter on the side and ordered the Cranberry in Fall cocktail which was Bourbon based. For appetizers, we go the short rib tacos. The tortilla was crispy and the meat was juicy and flavorful; this dish came with an onion and mango salsa on the side which was refreshing. We also ordered the truffle thyme risotto which came with bone marrow. This starter was not heavy and the risotto was very well cooked along with the porcini mushrooms. The bone marrow was definitely a great add on to this signature appetizer! For the main dish we ordered the 20 Oz cote the bouef, a succulent medium cooked bone-in prime rib cut, accompanied with another bone marrow and garlic bread crumbs on top. we asked the server to bring it to the table cut in slices that way we could easily and rapidly delight from this awesome dish. Finally, we ordered the peanut butter parfait along with regular coffee and fresh mint tea. The parfait was nicely presented and it was enough for us to share. The coffee was freshly brewed and the fresh mint tea was presented in an individual pot. The service was great; servers and runners rapidly attended to any of our needs and answered any questions we had about the menu. The ambiance of the restaurant is elegant and chick. I think Reserve Cut is a space designed for most adult gatherings such as birthdays, dates and guys/girls night out and business meetings. Besides the steaks, they also have a sushi and sashimi menu as well as "appetizers from the sea" and the highly acclaimed wagyu beef which I will beh trying next time. read more

Wow!!! Amazing experience here! From soup to dessert, ambiance, decor, servers, drinks, presentation of food - 5 stars! We experienced the mushroom soup, salad, sushi, lamp chops, rib eye, chicken, and the lava cake dessert. Wine was flowing alongside mixed cocktails. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and never felt rushed at all! read more

Reserve Cut was absolutely superb. I came here for my birthday and was highly impressed. I have been to many steakhouses in the city and this is one of my new favorites. I will just start by saying our server Eyal was fantastic. He was attentive, knowledgable about the menu and extremely friendly. He made our experience divine. For dinner I had the filet mignon with an herb roasted plum tomato and chimichurri sauce. My date had the Prime Reserve Cut with half roasted garlic and aromatic herbs. Both steaks were cooked to the perfect temperature as requested, juicy and flavorful. For our sides we ordered the yukon potato mash and the four mushroom saute. Everything was spectacular!! We also had a bearnaise sauce and a burnt onion sauce for the table to put on anything to our pleasure. Believe me when I say a little bit of those flavors on your meal will be popping in your mouth. To drink we went with a bottle of Chianti which was full-bodied with a wonderful aroma. For dessert I had the apple strudel basket. There was crackled caramel on top of the strudel and wow! It was absolutely scrumptious and certainly will be memorable. Overall this was a fantastic experience. I had a wonderful birthday dinner and would love to come back and try a seafood dish!! read more

The place is beautiful in decor. The service..they try their best to please you. Ask for Eduardo! !! The coat check girl, Rosie, is so jice. Rick and Denis, 2 of the managers will break their backs to please. Ghandi, another manager seemed aloof at 1st, turned out to be very charming and nice. The food is fantastic asked for the own r Albert 3 times, he never showed. Guess he likes the money in stiff his guests. That was the only disappointment. read more

I've had more kosher and non-kosher steaks than I could ever fathom counting, and none compared to the steaks I've had here. It's simply ridiculously amazing. Service is top notch, ambiance is very classy (though very dark) and there is some serious wizardry to not having any dairy because it tastes like there is in the dessert. Only thing to watch out for is the kosher prices - they're there. However, it's more than worth it. read more

Wow what a place! We was surprised how big this place is!! Nice decor, fresh flowers and cozy seating. Must have the tacos, tongue special and the reserve cut steak was out the chart! Service was also top notch! Can wait to come back with our friends read more

Reserve Cut - Tongue special - Steakhouses Near Me - New York, New York

The restaurant is located upstairs via the side entrance and elevator. It's a large space and nicely decorated. We tried out the restaurant week menu. The choices were good without any supplement charge, 5 oz filet, lamb burger or striped bass. We opted for desserts for $5. The appetizers and entree was delicious. The dessert of strawberry short cake was just so so, the s'mores dessert was better. But the overall service was lacking. Our tiny sides were served with the appetizers. Needless to say it sat there getting cold until our entrees came. No apologies or replacement on the mishap. read more

Oh my God, Reserve Cut was really incredible. It's kind of the perfect location. Filet Mignon is something that I highly recommend, you will absolutely love it. Staff are really courteous. They're accommodating, respectful and always on their game. Reserve Cut is awesome. read more

Have eaten there several times including business meetings - absolutely top notch location, service, and food!

Pretty good kosher restaurant. Just a warning that the prices are very high (you can't get an appetizer for less than $20 and the mains are $40 and higher). I ordered the tuna tartar and it was good but I wish that it had more sauce that went with it. It was a ponzu sesame sauce that went great with the tuna and avocado. I don't think that they needed to add caviar to the dish. It almost gave the dish a salty flavor which didn't go with the sauce very well. I then got the branzino (filet instead of the whole fish) and it was cooked well. The skin on the outside wasn't crispy enough so it had a slight fishy taste. I also thought that the olive tapenade would be more pronounced within the dish. Lastly I had the s'mores dessert and it was sooo rich. I wasn't able to eat the whole thing because of how decedent it was. If I were to come back I think I would try different items on the menu but the dinner was very good. read more

Excellent at every level. First the restaurant is well appointed with great ambiance, the food perfectly prepared. We tried their sushi as well as steak and sides. Highly recommend the tomahawk steak for a large party. The sides, especially the mashed potatoes, were on the smaller end. Great wine selection. read more

The best kosher steak I have ever eaten, the meat melted in my mouth and the wine washed down the never ending mouthfuls of meat. Sushi is fantastic...don't waste your time with the chicken soups though if your looking for a grandma style traditional one. The deserts were to hard to pick so one of each is very important! Would definitely come back ! read more

I have been at Reserve Cut many times and finally decided to post a review. The ambiance is just perfect. Upscale to the max. With multiple rooms to choose from, there are areas with music playing, and then there are quieter more intimate areas. Their service is probably the best I have come across. There are an abundance of waiters, runners, and busboys (and girls), all while not trying to push you out of the restaurant. On to the food... OMG amazing!! Everything from starters (u gotto try their tacos), to desserts, the pairing of flavors are simply to die for. Also big shout out to Bartender Ali for all ur awesome mixed drinks. If you haven't eaten here yet, and are in FiDi this place is a must. read more

My fiance took me here for my birthday. He knows my favorite two things is sushi and steak and I can't ever pick between these two. Leave it to him to find a unique spot that does both. The decor inside is amazing, beautifully done, romantic and chic at the same time. The hosts weren't all that friendly when we arrive, but I'm used to that with females and their notorious cattiness. We had a really great waiter, he was kind and even laughed at my jokes. I think I'm really funny, he may not think that, but he humored me anyway. The food was delicious, we did get a steak to share and lots of sushi to make my gluttonous self happy. Everything was amazing and I had a great birthday - just when you do come here, you know you going to spending a pretty penny. read more

First you have to find the restaurant. The nice big door with a doorman greeting you is not the restaurant entrance. No the entrance is through a door to the side and you have to take an elevator to get to the restaurant. But once you find it you'll enjoy the decor - lots of candles and hints of Asian influence. The bread comes with a hummus spread instead of butter. I love hummus so this wasn't a problem, but I did kind of miss butter. I ordered the crusted halibut and a side of mashed potatoes. The halibut was cooked to perfection, but it lacked seasoning. I'm talking bland city!!! However, the mashed potatoes were quite flavorful. I expected more of the food considering how much the meal was. The service was great. But again for the cost of the meal, the service better be good. read more

Pricy but what can you expect from a kosher steakhouse. The wagu ribeye was one of the best steaks I've had. Al in all a wonderful meal

Came here for restaurant week & was disappointed to put it mildly. Beautiful setup but definitely underwhelmed with my meal.

Incredible modern kosher steakhouse. The extensive menu doesn't disappoint and I especially loved their short rib tacos, boneless rib eye, and of course the fillet. The service was great, especially Pamela! If you're in the mood for a nice kosher steak with great ambiance you've come to the right place... oh and their cocktails also don't disappoint. read more

To be honest the food was not the worst I have ever had. but that would be the only positive about it... steak was dry, not worth over $100. Sushi was a joke, almost as bad as the ones I can get online for $10. Steak tartare just makes me sad. I can get better food for 1/4 the price. please dont make the same mistake I made. read more

I've been here a few times. Ambiance is amazing for any steakhouse in the city and the overall vibe is sexy and classy. Service the last two times was not great. I do have higher expectations based on the caliber of this place. Tacos here are typically good as well as the ribeye which was amazing last visit. read more

So surprised to see people leaving bad reviews. Had many meals there, as well as more then a few friends eat there often, and never once had or heard of a bad meal.
