“Nice decor but the foo.”
“The banana bread dessert was quite good; the gummy meringue in the chocolate mousse paled.”
“The drinks are awesome (made with fresh fruit, try the Blackberry Cosmo or Strawberry Basil martini-mmmm).”
“The food is mostly good -- the tuna and watermelon tartar is heavenly!”
“Cuchi Cuchi is a restaurant with a versatile, unique menu.”
“While it is not the best place to go if you feel like a big steak, the plates are absolutely fantastic and you will definitely not be hungry if you order 2-3 plates per person.”
“And if your first experience isn't amazing, go back, because Cuchi Cuchi is bound to impress.”
“Great decor and the servers are generally nice and friendly.”
“Dinner at Cuchi Cuchi tends to be expensive, but no more so than a restaurant like Rendezvous, and you get a wider variety of choices with a more la*d-back funky atmosphere [stupid site won't let me spell the word”
“wait for 1 hr and 28 mins of what was supposed to be a wonderful birthday evening for my husband.”View Less
Wonderful evening! Great food!. The restaurant is romantic, and quite different in it's decor. Takes you back to the vintage 20's! We loved it! The food was delicious! Our waitress was wonderful and polite! They do serve relatively quick, but don't feel rushed. If you are eating and drinking, just enjoy yourself! The bathrooms are always clean! A lovely place! Cudos to Fernanda and other owners for keeping up with this place for so many years! I've been there several times and never disappointed!…
Very Unhappy.......
Cuchi Cuchi was reccomended by a dear friend who spoke highly of the resturant..
We 12 of us went for a holiday party we made reservation a week prior even thou they do not except reservation since the Manager knew my friend they excepted the reservation... However we arrived 30 mins early had a few very costly drinks and then found out our table was given to another group of people. To that we had to wait another hour. They did nothing to make any of us happy, and the service was extremely fast. To the point we were rushed out.
The only thing I can say is the food was very good, and the bathrooms were clean..

An evening full of dissappointments.
Horrible service! I have been to some nice places in Boston and around the world but have never been treated this rudely before. We tried to surprise a friend with a little party but Cuchi Cuchi
surprised us with an evening full of disappointments.
They did not take reservations (but looking at their book they do!). My friend had been calling all week to get reservations and they refused, but I glanced at their seating book and they were taking reservations for small parties. Perhaps they just discriminate against large parties 5+ or maybe they cater to their regulars, I don’t know…but it is a shady practice. We tried to get a smaller table and that is when the fun began. We were moved 4 times!!!!! We arrived before 7pm, were given a long story about how they could not seat us, were told to wait at the bar, once the bar got full, were conveniently moved to a small table, then the couch in corner, and 2 hours later the table in the back was opened so they moved us again!!!! It was ridiculous; I have never been treated like that. If it were not for my friend’s celebration, I would have walked out. I was with many international friends who did not understand what was going on, some even felt they were being discriminated against.
The food was overpriced. For all of our troubles they gave us nothing! You pay for the bread, and everything. They recommend that you order two plates to equal a full meal. I had the baby back ribs, nothing special about them; I can get better ribs at KO Prime. They rushed us through the meal; before you were done eating they took the plates.
Only bonus, you get to keep your coaster…they don’t advertise only word of mouth. Unless you want to be treated rudely, I would stay away. I will never go back there!!…
Sangria and Indulgence. We had the sangria, the duck pate, the brie en croute, the tuna tartare.. MMMM! Their signature drink menu was ASTOUNDING. Will definitely go back but watch out--it gets pricy quickly! Bring a bunch of girlfriends and you're going to have a fantastic time. I've heard about a light up table but I got to hang out on the oldschool couches with oversized pillows. I'm still thinking about the munchy food. If you order the brie, ask for double toast :)…
Eclectic but awesome. This food was fantastic. I didn't go here with stellar expectations, I think b/c I couldn't quite make sense of the menu. I came here for my friend's bday. 5 of us, 2 vegetarians. We ordered the Asian salad (crunchy, very fresh tasting, lots of mint), Grilled Eggplant Napoleon (faaabulous, eggplant layered with goat cheese and onions, delicious), Insalata di Liquria (nice mix of endive, gorgonzola and chestnut honey), Gratin Dauphinois (potato gratin, not too heavy/cheesy, delicious), Mushroom Risotto (very good, drizzled with truffle oil). The meat eaters also enjoyed the Sizzling Garlic Shrimp and the Cuban Cigar- which came with a tasty black bean salsa. Dessert was Cheesecake and Tartufo. Cheesecake was small but excellent. Tartufo was good. Came with strawberry (meh), pistachio and mexican chocolate ice cream. The staff could not have been kinder. From seating us well before our reservation time, as we were early, to triple checking for gluten content, to making a fabulous birthday presentation, they completed a delicious and very enjoyable evening. The decor is awesome as well.…
