Known for its inventive cuisine and refined atmosphere, Reserve Cut is helmed by Albert Allaham, a master butcher with a storied heritage of over 200 years in the butchery trade. His lineage, rooted in Damascus, Syria, has brought forth a legacy of exceptional meat craftsmanship, now showcased at both Reserve Cut and his high-end meat market, The Prime Cut.

The evening unfolded with a meticulously crafted menu that reflected Reserve Cut’s commitment to culinary excellence. Guests were greeted with a selection of family-style salads, including a vibrant heirloom tomato salad featuring yuzu avocado remoulade, cured smoked bacon, white asparagus, and microgreens.
