Chez Cocó

Chez Coco got that kinda old-school charm that makes you wanna sit back, light up a fat cigar, and let the night roll slow. The terrace? Sweet as a Southern porch on a summer evening—ain’t many spots left where you can puff a good stogie while sippin’ on somethin’ cold. They even got a humidor stocked up, but lemme tell ya, them prices’ll make your wallet cry. Now, the food? It’s solid, no doubt, but it ain't knock-you-off-your-feet good. We had the tortilla de patata and butifarra del perol—hearty, rich, a little rustic, just how it should be. The pan con tomate did its job, though I wouldn’t write home about it. The Stilton cheese salad brought a nice funk to the table, and that ensaladilla with salmon caviar had a lil’ pop of briny goodness. As for the mains, the herb-roasted chicken was tender, fragrant, but not exactly life-changing. The spicy tomato chicken packed a decent kick, though it left me wishin’ for a touch more soul. Ended it all with some whipped cream and vanilla, simple and sweet. Service? Let’s just say they get you what you need, but don’t expect ‘em to tuck your napkin in. Chez Coco’s got style, got comfort, and sure as hell got cigars—but if you’re lookin’ for a meal to make you see the light, you might need to keep on walkin

Food: Normal food, you can’t say it tastes bad but it’s just not special and not matching the price we’re paying. Atmosphere: very beautiful, no bad things about this. Service: basic service or leaning towards bad, people are not happy working here and it gives you the energy, makes me uncomfortable and sad.

Chicken was unbelievably salty, the fries were very average… best part of the meal were the anchovy toasts. Service was incredibly, incredibly slow. One server, for half a dozen tables… and dining alone, I was often overlooked. There is better food, and service, anywhere else in Barcelona.

Hummm... in summary, I don't think I will come back again. The ambience of the restaurant is nice! It was more French style. Unique experience to be beyond usual Spanish vibe. :) Especially, it was half open kitchen where we were able to see the bakery side and chicken ovens - appetizing! :) However, the food was not matching the expectation - for the price. The chicken was exceptionally dry. The side dishes were missing some taste. The staffs were not attentive at all (+ not friendly either). Plus, one of the worst part was that.. we set near to the bathroom. And the staffs were cleaning the bathroom while in the mid of the lunch hours. Entire my meal, I hear all sounds of water, flushing toilet multiple times, it was really unpleasant experience. Overall, I dont feel that any of the staffs have manager who is in charge of overall quality of service.

1st experience in this exquisite restaurant was simply breathtaking… It has its own dainty character and I have to say, It’s spectacular from every angle the moment you walk in, I was in awe!!! My hubby and I was graciously welcomed by the host and without knowing the high demands of the restaurant, we didn’t make any reservation for it but thankfully the host was accommodative enough to find us a seat. This review serves as a recommendation and I can affirm this restaurant as one of a ‘must go’ when you’re visiting Barcelona or even when you’re residing here as a local. Most importantly, I have to say… Food was utterly scrumptious!!! My hubby and I had : Appetiser 1) Potato chips “BONILLA A LA VISTA” 2) Anchovy stuffed olives “EL XILLU” 3) Tomato bread with anchovy “CANTABRICO” ▪️8/10 4) Cod Fritters ▪️10/10 5) Russian Salad ▪️9/10 6) Wild mushroom ravioli with parmesano reggiano and truffle oil ▪️7.5/10 (a tad bland) 7) Coquelet with Herbs ▪️10/10 8) Mashed Potatoes ▪️10/10 9) Whipped cream with vanilla and Chocolate truffles Manjari ▪️9/10 I always believe food critics & reviews is acquire to its and every own individual taste and this is my fair contribution. Bon Profit 👌🏼😘

The place has a potential to be a super good restaurant. The interior looks perfect, the location is amazing, BUT, I was quite disappointed with my visit to this restaurant. The staff was slow and not very attentive—we had to wait a long time for everything, from ordering to receiving our food. Despite having coat hangers at the entrance, no one offered to take my coat, which was a small but noticeable lack of service. The atmosphere wasn’t pleasant, and the seating wasn’t great either—the sofas were dirty, which didn’t make for a comfortable experience. As for the food, it was okay but nothing special, just very average. Given the overall poor service and unimpressive ambiance, I wouldn’t recommend this place.

chicken rotisserie cooked so well still juicy and yummy. We ordered BBQ, classic and spicy. It came with side dishes of fresh made fries, mash sweet potato and Romaine lettuce heart and toast bread with tomato. Highly recommended 😋😋😋

A surprising restaurant, warm decoration and service. The food is correct and their speciality, the chicken, is very nice. The terrace is also well decorated and calm. Really recommendable to have a quite dinner. Good quality-price rate.

This place has the best roast chicken I've ever had! The starters are very good & varied. We had the chicken with herbs & the spicy chicken, and both were out of this world :) I also highly recommend the mashed potatoes. The staff are very friendly and make you feel welcomed. The speak English as well :) 5 stars!

Incredible! My husband and I went to dinner here and left adding this to our list of top meals we have ever had... and we have shared A LOT of meals. The ambiance and service was excellent. The restaurant was beautiful with elegant chandeliers, plush velvet seats, and ornate silverware. Everything was beautiful to look at. Now the food... WOW! Chicken is the most basic dish you can get but this was not basic. We shared everything we ordered and it was the perfect amount to still fit in dessert at the end which we HIGHLY recommend. For starters we got the bread and the salmon belinis. Then for dinner we got the herb chicken, lasagna, and for sides the lettuce salad and the potatoes au gratin. The chicken was perfection. Lasagna was light. And the potatoes were creamy, cheesy, comfort! We ordered the Baba rum dessert... out of this world. Totally took the dinner to another level. Save room for dessert, it's a must. Lastly, for how amazing this dinner was and the wine we got, it was so affordable! Go have a romantic dinner or share a beautiful meal with your family & friends here, it will be a meal to remember.

If you want to splurge on food, this is the place to do it! Everything is à la cart, so you even pay for your bread if you desire it. When we walked in, they asked if we had reservations. They were not full, but when we said no, they kindly told us we would have to sit inside. The inside was so gorgeous! Nice, large, velvet love seat-type seats and lovely decor. We did leave through the back which was the outside, and I can see why people make reservations and sit outside! It was beautiful! We had the coquelet's with herbs (young chicken with herbs) and the scalloped potatoes. The presentation of the food is amazing! Attention to every detail! The small, whole chicken was presented by itself in a small dish and was so juicy and tender and had a wonderful flavor. The scalloped potatoes....OH MY GOODNESS! The best I've ever had, and I'm from the south, so we know how to cook scalloped potatoes! The came in their own bowl and were browned to perfection! We did not have room for dessert, but wished we had shared the chicken (NOT THE POTATOES :-)) so we could have tried the dessert. However, my husband did eat his whole chicken but I couldn't finish mine. We highly recommend! We would eat here again and save room for dessert!

Very tasty small chickens cooked in various styles. Sides and deserts also nicely prepared. Nice indoor restaurant ambience and relaxing outdoor back patio. Drinks also very nicely prepared. One of the nicer restaurants with decent service.

Gorgeous decor, mouth watering seasoned rotisserie chickens, and flavorful side dishes ~ very good restaurant indeed. All items are alé carte, so each meal was approximately 18€ each. Delicious sangria too! Reservations recommended.

The chicken was probably the best we have ever had. My husband got the mashed potatoes and the were fabulous and unlike any we have ever had. In spite of being quite full, we shared the chocolate coconut was excellent. The other reviews (which we read ahead of time) we spot on. Lovely last evening in Barcelona.

Ummmm - WOW - I have never had chicken that good in my life. I went in think I was going to Boston Market - not here. Wow!!!!!!

I had a delightful lunch on the back patio at Chez Coco this past Friday. My friends who invited me come here quite frequently, and I let them do all the ordering. We had 3 chickens - one with herbs, one with bbq, and I got the spicy one. The chickens were all cooked perfectly - they were so tender and each was seasoned very well. I did like my spicy chicken... I didn't really want something spicy, but seeing as the Spanish palate isn't as tempered as mine is for spicy, I knew this wouldn't be anything close to what I'd consider hot/picante. It was just right. For the sides, we had the melted cheese "torta de trujillo (sp?)", potato puree, eggs with jamon, and spicy vegetables. Don't bother with the spicy veg... I should have known better... it was basically a wilted salad with cayenne sprinkled atop. Of course, the thing I order was the bad thing. I always expect something like what I'd get in California, and it's always supremely disappointing. I need to go in expecting what the Catalan know how to do well... and salads/vegetables are not their forte. The setting was lovely, and service was excellent. Lunch for 3 including 2 bottles of wine, 3 cañas, & one dessert came to about 160 euros. A bit of a splurge, but considering the quality - it was well worth it.

Amazing place for dinner! I heard it was essentially a rotisserie place, and had no idea what to expect. The restaurant itself was very nice and the staff friendly. We ordered a whole chicken and a bottle of wine. Once the chicken was ready, the waitress brings it to the table to show it to you, then takes in back to carve it. So don't be concerned when they take your dinner away! It was absolutely delicious, practically melted in your mouth and came with fries too! Great place if you're a meat eater. Oh and don't miss out on the sobresada!

Simple amazing ingredients done with a gourmet twist. Every layer, every course was simply amazing!

It's supposed to be a very posh restaurant in Barcelona, location is great in a good residential area Diagonal / Francesc Macia, restaurant is very cozy with exotic plants all over and fancy chairs and tables.... However, when it comes to food it's very disappointing, at least for me it has been. We had dinner and ordered some sharing appetizers and they were bland, I would have preferred the real thing, we ordered salmon blinnis, they brought big chunks of salmon like sushi on top of small blinnis, when the real thing would have been better just smoke salmon please, we also ordered ham with melon and they brought a candied transparent square melon with some ham on top, again please bring me the real Spanish sweet melon, we also had hummus but instead of chickpea and garlic it was made of sesame seed which was weird ... Then for starters we ordered the speciality which is supposed to be the young roasted chicken, I ordered the herb chicken, another person in our team ordered the classic chicken and it was nothing to die for, boring and tasteless, I assure you my roasted home chicken tastes better! The only recommendable item was my desert a sumptuous chocolate Sacher tart, I wish all would have been as good as this delicacy. Disappointing, not a place to come back for dinner.

The place is very clean and well decorated. The terrace is very usually reserved. Great environment and great fries. The chicken is good. It's a little bland at first but once you add the juices it gets better. The picante chicken isn't really spicy and the herb chicken is delicious. I tried the curry rice and it was great.

Excellent food and the service superb. They took a lil longer than expected, but no complaints aside from that.

Cute brasserie-like place. Tall spacious rooms with some cosy compartments formed out of bench seats. Covered terrace with wickerwork furniture, very comfortable also for smokers. Small very delicious courses. Classic food prepared and presented in a modern way. I will come back.
