    Absolutely perfect! First time and will definitely be back soon. My wife had the halibut and loved it and I had the Argentinian stake that was the very best I ever had! Servers were kind and courteous and the live music was an amazing addition. Just fantastic!

    All 3 of us ordered the 6 oz filet! Perfectly cooked and seasoned! Service was good and the petite sweet for dessert was the perfect ending!

    129 Center Cut is an excellent restaurant. The food was delicious, the drinks were tasty and the service was great. Our waitress was very friendly, helpful and attentive, but not intrusive. We had a wonderful experience and will recommend eating there to anyone that asks.

    Had a reservation for a regular table but we were seated at a high top directly in front of the music area. Couldn’t hear ourselves think much less talk to each other. We asked for a different table and then it was fine. Food and service were awesome. But seriously it was ridiculous. The music was actually really good but not from a distance of 5 feet! If you are going to have music at a regular dinner hour, turn it down! A lot!

    I looked forward to trying 129 center cut. I was very surprised at the high prices in downtown Grayslake. The first thing noticed were the 2 people playing guitars and singing were quite loud for a dinner house where people would talk, and management did not direct them to turn it down a little bit. I ordered the double pork chops and my table mate ordered the chicken piccata. I had to get a steak knife to be able to cut the pork chops. I had some of the chicken piccata and it was covered with a very unusual covering not your usual bread crumb covering; it was kind of gloppy, gelatin and and flour like. There was no sauce on it. I was just surprised at our experience. I have had better food at other area restuarants.
