129 Center Cut - American restaurant in Grayslake - 129 Center St, USA

Let’s just call it what it is, it’s not a steakhouse. Food and drinks were all very subpar, the buratta was old and stracciatella was essentially solid, French 75’s were made flat and the “margarita” pizza was just cheese topped with old basil and uncooked cherry tomatoes. We decided to leave before ordering entrées, of which they were at best 5 different cuts on the menu. Atmosphere was fine and our server was very friendly, so our service had nothing to do with our experience, the food just was really disappointing.

Really nice restaurant in downtown Grayslake with outside seating along street. Street barriers with flowers. Great service by Cassie. GM came out and welcomed us. Staff really provides great friendly service. Had goat cheese with marinara sauce and tasty toasted bread slices for appetizer. Delicious! We got salmon with green beans and potatoes. Sauce on salmon was so good. Salmon was perfectly cooked. Dessert. Chocolate mouse was rich and creamy. Definite must try.

Had a well-deserved amazing meal with wonderful people. My girlfriend got the short rib, and it was delicious, but it was a bit pricey. My other girlfriend got the 8 ounce filet, and she said it was on point and the price was fair. I got the prime rib that they only have on fri & Saturdays. And as you can see in the pictures it was perfect! Or server Rachel was also a pleasure to be around and made our visit that much more enjoyable! Cheers!

I was in this area for business and the hotel recommended 129 Center Cut. I loved it. Great setting and good food. Sorry no photos but I can tell you that I had their Short Rib Risotto and tried a bourbon drink they offered on the menu called The Broadway. Both were excellent.

The filet mignon was superb!! A bit pricey but i think if you want a good steak ill pay for a little more. The calamari was very delicious! My wife got the santa fe salad and i like it a lot, she thought it was ok. The service was slow and we were literally one of 3 total tables on a Sunday afternoon. Very nice clean place. Just expect to pay a good amount of money

Went here for my birthday! It was amazing food will definitely be back!

Thank you to 129 Center Cut. My daughter’s bridal shower was amazing. 60+ guests were taken care of seamlessly, thank you Jes. The food was great and plentiful as were the mimosa and Bloody Mary bars. The venue was beautiful. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to host an event.

Went here again after not visiting for about 6 years. Nothing seemed to change other than the prices. We got three steaks two 6oz and one 8oz which were great but the portions were tiny. For what you are paying for, you'd think pricing would be worth it but overall the evening was overpriced. Our waitress was anything but attentive and really struggled to bring water refills or see if we needed anything after the food was delivered but we tipped her well so hopefully she'll be better next time. House salad was weird and went untouched by 2/3 of us. Nice enough place except for the small portions especially for desserts and big prices. Overall I think there are better places where I'd rather go and spend the amount of money. But worth a try if you wish.
