Seems that if you know the staff they will actually pay attention refill waters be attentive ect. Waitress would be gone for 20 mins at a time or more. Took 2 hrs for me and my wife to have dinner for our 1st anniversary which was suppose to be pleasant. It wasnt busy at all eitherwe seen partys of 3 and 4 come and go. Again the guest that seemed to know the staff got the attention all guest should. Food was meh definitely NOT worth the money you will spend there. The French onion soup is super sweet and thick not what we were expecting. We got creme brulee which was burnt. We were excited for hype and were pretty disappointed. Didnt even get a thank you for coming come back again or anything on the way out just 3 staff memebers hanging at the host stand and they even seen us leaving. Not worth the money wouldnt recommend

Lovely ambiance, ocean view and a mouse running across the floor!I didn't even tell the server as our table was around the corner from the entrance.I met a friend for brunch for a first time visit on Sunday @ 11:00 AM. Had to wait for clean coffee cups, yet they just opened, then coffee was bland.Bacon arrived looking like it was on the grill for 2 seconds and both orders had to be sent back.Some quality control is in order here from management, if they have any:(I won't return....ever!

Food was the best part. Trendy, upscale atmosphere with a nice bar area. The Lounge at Cut 21 looked great too but came for an anniversary dinner and sat at a window seat. The server was nice, helpful and fun to talk to but for a steakhouse thats charging steakhouse prices you usually receive a higher level of service. Food was great, my wife said the bolognese was the best she ever had. I ended up making the switch from the a la carte steak and side options to the burger and I’m glad I did, it was amazing. Added in the crab fried rice and that was spicy and delicious. If you’re looking for a true steakhouse experience head into the city but if you want an upscale experience on Revere beach this is the place to go.

I don’t like leaving negative reviews, again, only when I find it necessary. I visited this restaurant with my husband, my 2 children and two other people. Only myself and the 2 friends were able to order because menu is not kid-friendly and they are not allergy friendly either. I understand restaurants aren’t all allergy friendly but I would think this would be made known. I’ll try to keep as short as possible.My husband has a serious shellfish allergy. He wanted to order a steak plate. I mentioned to the server he has a shellfish allergy and she asked how serious his allergy was and I said it was serious. She went on to ask if it’s serious to the point where he gets a serious reaction or if it’s just an allergy where if there’s cross contamination it’s OK. I said it couldn’t be cross contamination because he has a serious allergy and she said he couldn’t eat that plate because they can’t cook it separate, since they cook everything in the same place (not sure what she meant). So I asked what do you mean? It can’t be cooked separately even though he has a shellfish allergy? She said no. So I asked what he can eat and pretty much left it that he didn’t have much a selection and her words were “unless he wants to risk it”. THAT in itself is awful. I mentioned multiple times he has a serious allergy and she did nothing to try to accommodate, rather than “risk it”.Point is, awful service, awful attitude. I am understanding, but this service is unacceptable.

A wonderful venue for dates or friends gathering right in front of the beach. They have a very friendly staff and pleasant music. Their food is awesome!It’ll be nice if they’d add an ice decaf latte to their menu!

Our first visit to Cut 21 was good despite slow service. However, the second visit was frustrating. We were left waiting even after asking for help. Salome, a waitress, was rude and told us it was our fault for not waiting for the hostess, despite a "take your seat" sign. After more delays, we decided to leave.

Showed up with a party of five, at 7:15pm on Sunday evening and right away, Cut 21 is By far one of the sexiest, elegant, grown folks type restaurant in Metropolitan Boston. The views to Revere Beach, the staff, outstanding, the decor, to die for, the music selection and volume on point (you could still hear yourself talking), the overall AMBIENCE and setting was so overwhelmingly beautiful and breathtakingly. But honestly, none of that would mean nothing if the food did not match... and BAY-BAYYYYYY!! let me tell you, Cut 21 did not disappoint!! We was a party of 5 and everything that came out to our table was exceptional. The presentation of each dish that came out, out did the previous one. Every thing was so beautiful and perfectly laid out. OMG but the aromas and flavors were even better. Everything came out on time, no one at our table waited, everything was piping, steaming hot. No complaints. Nothing had to be returned,.exchanged, or fixed. Our table was so quiet. Everyone's plates looked so good,.no one could resist wanting to taste eachothers selections!! I came in from Atlanta to visit family, I am originally from Boston, and come often,.for some reason none of my family and friends that live here had never heard of nor been to Cut 21. All night after I got back to my family's home, all I could think is "who can I invite here before I leave next week" and even crazier, I was thinking, "who can come up with me from Atlanta next time, so I can take them to Cut 21"... yes yes yes, everything about this place was that good. If you haven't been there yet, you don't know what a gem you are missing. I don't drink alcohol, however the people that did, said their drinks were great, and of course, as expected the presentation was gorgeous. If I lived here, this would be my once a week go to spot. My grown children call me a foody, I guess I am, because I love good food. I would give 10 stars if it were possibleOur waitress, Jessica, was beautiful on every level, so professional but not stuffy, so she was not overly friendly, but gave exceptional service and mannnn oh mannnn did she know every detail of each meal on the menu!! That is what I expect from wait staff but very hard to find!! She went above and beyond with our table, but I got the feeling she is like that with all of her guests. But it felt good that she made me feel like it was just us. LOL Jessica was just a diamond ?!! She made us feel so welcome and she interacted just enough to make us feel at home, but at the same time as if we were Catered to. I would request to be seated in her area, if that was possible. This place gets 10 stars from me and my family and friends. Oh, lastly, I would have expected to pay a lot more for our meals. The prices on the menu were more than reasonable. I feel like I got way more than my money was worth!! The only "issue" i had with our visit was the temperature inside the restaurant. It was FREEEEEZING!! I wished i had a sweater. However, we let the waitress, know, and she apologized and stated she would go turn it down. Which she did. I actually took these pictures during my visit. There were a lot more, but the others had our faces! I can't wait to come back!! LOL bon Appétit
Parking: It was Sunday evening 730pm, and there was plenty of street parking. We actually parked directly across the street from the restaurant

Came with my fiance last friday 7/7/2023. We were brought to the table outside and got the menus. None of the service staff came up to us, one waitress passed by said hi and looked away/ People who got there after us had wait stuff come up to them. We waited for over 10 minutes and left. Very disappointing.

This is a great place! They split entries perfectly. The drinks (martinis) are very good, especially with blue cheese olives. They are right on the beach. The atmosphere is nice and very clean. Don't be in a rush, and everything will work out fine. It's a bit more expensive than what is in the area but it's well worth it, as the food and experience raw to notch!

The food was outstanding! Portions were so big! Really good value. When they say sides are for sharing they really mean it.
Absolutely phenomenal meal at Cut 21. Best dinner we had in the Boston area - one of my be best we’ve had in years of travel. Fresh, flavorful, and generous portions. The my steak was tender and perfectly cooked and seasoned. The truffled fries were fragrant and incredible. My wife’s salmon and crab fried rice was an unexpected delight. Nothing but good things to say about our experience coming from a couple of foodies. Do yourself a favor and try it out if you’re in the area.
