Time Flies When You’re Pleasing Guests -- American Cut Buckhead Marks First Anniversary

American Cut Buckhead has enjoyed a highly successful first year in Atlanta, pleasing much-valued guests with top-flight service and serving the highest level of food through nurturing strong relationships with local food purveyors. The destination steakhouse in The Shops Buckhead Atlanta so appreciates the supportive community, the team is taking guest raves and requests to heart, putting an emphasis on favorite seasonal ingredients, wet-aged and USDA Prime steaks, a bold wine program and cocktail menu and all of the other elements that have turned visitors into loyal guests.

A new array of wet-aged meat selections, including a 40-ounce wet-aged porterhouse and a 14-ounce New York strip, join the dry-aged options. All meats are USDA Prime cuts and sourced from local partner Revere. Seafood lovers catch a rotating selection of four fish entrées, including Scottish salmon with sun-dried tomato Champagne cream and halibut en croute. Seasonal side favorites are back, like the restaurant’s signature Brussels sprouts, along with sweet potatoes, sun-dried tomatoes and the steakhouse’s addictive Buffalo cauliflower -- a nutritious veggie with the zing of Buffalo chicken wings. Adding to the celebratory air, all food on the popular bar menu is now half-price Monday through Friday from 5-7 p.m., and the after-work crowd also can enjoy $1 oysters and a nightly drink special. Pastry chef Satoko Kakinohana is whisking up new, irresistible desserts including an “all-chocolate” crunchy hazelnut bar with Bailey’s ice cream and cappuccino foam; an apple pie cobbler with oatmeal crumble and buttermilk ice cream; a sweet potato cheesecake with malted milk ice cream; and an addicting sticky date cake with butterscotch and burnt orange ice cream. Top off dinner with a venture upstairs to the rooftop Regent Cocktail Club for an after-dinner libation of imaginative handcrafted cocktails, wine from the curated list and local microbrews. American Cut serves dinner nightly. For more information, call 770-415-9766.
