Montlake Cut

"Restaurateur Nick Badovinus brings a taste of Seattle to this swanky seafood spot, which lures diners with top-quality oysters, excellent crudos, and dishes including the Nick-Coise, the chef’s take on a nicoise salad with tuna." - Courtney E. Smith, Daniel Rockey

"One can’t go wrong with crudo or ceviche at this place and a mains menu that reads as much like a steakhouse as a seafood restaurant. But the actual piece de resistance has to be the Nick-Coise salad, named after owner Nick Badovinus. And if there’s a more extensive and impressive list of white wines in the city, we’ll eat a copy of it in our Nick-Coise." - Courtney E. Smith

"Montlake Cut is another dining establishment under Nick Badovinus's Flavorhook group, known for its high-quality dining experience in Dallas." - Courtney E. Smith

"Montlake Cut is known for its good selection of East Coast oysters." - Courtney E. Smith

"Ceviche doesn’t exactly hail from the Pacific Northwest, but this upscale spot knows its way around all kinds of seafood dishes. Order the market fish ceviche, served with avocado and orange in a mezcal-citrus vinaigrette." - Amy McCarthy
