The Lounge at Cut 21

Nice view! People are nice, too. But food just so-so, a little expensive.

I definitely recommend this place! The lounge seems like the more casual bar food menu of Cut 21.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the staff was all helpful and very friendly!

The cocktail menu seemed similar, which is a good thing as they are pretty good. We ordered the Mera's kiss and a whiskey sour. Both were very good.

For food, we split the pimento cheese dip, and the bluefish dip. The pimento was excellent, definitely worth getting. The bluefish was good, but I just don't think I'm the biggest bluefish fan (had previously never had it) so I don't think I would order it again. Both came with homemade tortilla chips. We enjoyed both, the one downside is that originally the dip / chip ratios was a little light on the chips. This was easily fixed by the staff who brought over a small plate of extra chips.

For entrees, we had the bacon burger, steamers, and Cobb salad. The steamers I was told were excellent, and the best they have ever had. Unfortunately, the Cobb salad had a hair in it, but that dish was comp'd by the staff.

I ordered the burger. Now.. you'll rarely catch me paying $17 for a burger. Not many burgers are worth close to that. The best comparison I can make is the deliciousness and taste of an elevated Five Guys burger, without any of the regret or horrible feeling after. The bun was excellent, and the meat was very tasty.

Unfortunately, we ended up getting to-go containers as the recent rain in Revere brought a wave of mosquitoes. The indoor/outdoor seating meant they all came inside, making themselves comfortable on the walls and hovering around my food. I don't particularly fault the Lounge for this, but might be helpful to look into some mosquito zapper solutions.

Overall I definitely recommend the Lounge. It's definitely more expensive than other options on the Revere beach strip, but the food and drinks and atmosphere make it a great location to check out!

Cut 21 was pretty good! My friends and I went to the lounge portion of this restaurant, and for a nice summer evening it was good to be outside. The music was uptempo which was nice. The colour choice of their place and their menu design was one of my favourite things about the lounge. In addition, you can’t forget the lights they have in display. I like how they added the wood baskets around them. Great vibes. I’m only going to judge based on drinks and appetisers because that’s what I had. I was a bit disappointed since I have a shellfish allergy that I couldn’t get the crispy calamari since they cook it in the same batch. But their fries were great and crispy. They were the perfect beach fries you crave when eating in that area. There drinks were great. I had this coconut liquid drink and I substituted the titos with mezcal and that was a game changer for those who enjoy the Smokey taste. My friends had a sponge in house which was nice and tropical and my other friend had a passion fruit mojito which I was impressed with because they didn’t over do it with their sugar in that drink. I’ll definitely be back to try more food and get more of the feel of cut 21.

Honestly I stumbled upon this spot a few days ago. This lounge is an extension of the Cut 21 restaurant, they are two seperate spaces. There are now meters at the parking spots on the rotary at the beginning of Revere Beach but You can also find some meter spots in front as well.

Let me jump into the aesthetics, cause i like talking about ambiance. A restaurant/lounge is only as good as the energy around the food and drinks. This spot has it right, simply put. Not guna lie, the owners did take a safe approach to the interior and I'm not upset about it. Revere beach has needed something like this forever. They activate the sidewalk and beach itself with the lounge. Lots of basket weave visuals from the tile die wall to the decorative light fixtures, I dig it. The music can be a little more lively (some latin, tropical, and or house, idk lol). I'm hoping the tenant's above don't complain often cause theyll be this places worst enemy.

Cocktails are good! Whenever a spot has Mezcal, theyve won me over lol, but It's gotta be better than Del Maguey Vida. Nonetheless I appreciate this touch. I got the 126 Conch street, or the SpongeBob lmao cause I swear that's his address? No? Oh and lastly service was a bit slow, attentive, but slow. Cocktails did take longer than 15 minutes to get. Can't bash them on this too much since I think they just opened up.

I didn't have food so my review is mostly ambiance, cocktails and their french fries. I recommend! Check it out! Don't wait!
