    We enjoyed our dinner as always. In fact it was our anniversary and they gave us champagne to celebrate. That was a nice touch! It is a great place for fresh fish!

    Excellent atmosphere in the heart of Preston Center - Food was great, dessert was just okay - service was spot on - a little too loud but expected on a Friday night.

    I love everything about Montlake Cut. The service is outstanding. We loved our waiter and the hostess who gave us an ap on the house beacause the table before us was lingering. The ONLY drawback to our experience and others before that is that it is SO loud. The party behind us were screaming laughing. (Good for them) but we couldn’t hear eachother.

    Hostess was rude. Made us wait 30-40 minutes. We had a table reservation and she got upset that that we didn’t want to take the bar seats.

    The experience.....Interesting question. I have been looking for a regular place to go for dinner on a fairly regularly. This was our 4th time to this place and I do not think we will be a regular there. This place is not a full package place. The last time we visited there my first got within 20 minutes after we left there. So this time we were thinking okay maybe it was the garlic in the side dish we order with dinner. So we order the Haricot Vert with Bacon. We specifically requested no "garlic" and it still was in this dish. My first's food was room temperature therefore we had to send it back. Before we left my first was feeling sick again. We realized there was garlic in the dish that we specially ask not to have garlic. These two errors were really unnecessary. Flourless cake was good. Some guess wanted to the channel changed on the tv nearest us and no one even asked if we were okay with that or not. Where has common courtesy gone?
