    Second time at this restaurant. First time, outdoor seating, ambiance and service was wonderful which lead to another visit. Second time, (inside seating) not as wonderful. Still enjoyable but had a hard time reading menu because of lighting and service was only fair. Nice waitress but she wasn't very attentive. As far as lighting was considered, my suggestion would be leave that alone but make the menus easier to read perhaps by darkening the print to make wording stand out. Will try restaurant again - bar area looked lively and food was good!

    Always a great meal and ambiance at Coco! The menu is very approachable with a french influence. The decor is inviting and relaxing, especially great for date night.

    The food was delicious, and I highly recommend the fries (sooo good!). This is a cute, cozy little bar/restaurant that feels like a neighborhood stop, but is upscale enough where you also feel like you're at someplace special. I'd highly recommend Coco for a date or a place to stop off and get some drinks, but unfortunately, after coming back late to the office because of our "extended" lunch, I don't think I could recommend the restaurant as a good place for a business meeting. Our food was extremely slow in getting to us, as apparently the kitchen was "backed up," according to our server. Not sure how an established restaurant like this didn't expect a crowd of people at lunchtime during the holiday season, but our server checked in on us repeatedly and management did a good job of diffusing the situation by apologizing and compensating us accordingly, so they get major kudos for customer service/satisfaction.

    We had an enjoyable lunch at Coco's for a holiday group lunch. The service was very good, except for the absence of spoons with hot tea and coffee service. The food was excellent. One issue is that it was very cold in the room, cold enough that some people kept their coats on. This should be corrected somehow in the future. Overall a good time was had by all.

    Coco is one of our favorites when we want good food in a good atmosphere. Getting there a little early for our reservation is always fun, as we get to sit at the bar and chat up the friendly bartenders. Meal time brings a myriad of choices - all of which are delicious and reasonably priced. Service is excellent, tonight we had Destiny behind the bar and Caitlyn taking care of us at the table. We definitely recommend Coco's to everyone looking for a nice night out.

    We always enjoy our meals at Coco. The food is consistently good and I can say that because my wife always has the same trout dish. The Brussels Sprout Caesar salad is a winner, as is the regular Caesar salad, and the fresh warm bread with white bean puree. I had the Onion Soup Burger and it was one of the best burgers I have had in a while- and their fries are better than most. We split a fantastic dessert very similar to English sticky pudding, but with an African name and seasoning. I've often felt the service could be a little better, but always friendly and professional, just a little slow at times- especially getting that first drink order.
