What People Are Saying About Coco Loco Cuban Caribbean

In Short – This colorful cantina's Latin remixes keep the vibe upbeat and the neighborly crowd chatty through closing time. If the music and the margaritas don't give you a buzz, maybe the erotic flamenco dancer paintings will. Skillful meat preparation combined make for wonderful main dishes. The pork in masitas de puerco is crisp on the outside and pull-apart tender. The equally tender chicken habanero is liberally sauced and flavored with lemon and capers.

Best Cuban Food in Atlanta
by jojo somerville at Citysearch
The authentic vibe of Coco Loco many - Cubans and folks that just love Cuban food. Black beans are great as are the sadwiches of course! Homemade sangria usaully is the best drink for those that do!
- Pros: Fresh Tilapia and Groupoer
- Cons: hard to find on Sidney Marcus near Piedmont

Just what we have been looking for! Authentic and delish!!
by travelbugg1980 at Citysearch
Having lived in South Florida, my fiance and I are always on the lookout for a good restaurant that can serve up that authentic carribbean flavor. Unfortunatly many of the real authentic home-cooked kind of places in Atlanta seem to be either very new, or more family style. i.e.--no liquor license! Coco Loco on the otherhand was exactly what we have been looking for!! A place where we could get a good flank steak or cuban pork, and also have a nice mojito. (Way better than those at Bahama Breeze!!) A place where you could bring your family OR go out on a date. Ambiance was chill--not too fancy but not too casual. Service was prompt, and prices fair. Everthing we tried was delicious, especially the conch fritters, and the shrimp. Though the cuban style steak was lick-your -plate delicious as well!! We can't wait to come back!! And to top it all off, once you are in the island mood--there is a cigar shop across the street to complete the evening in true caribbean fashion!
- Pros: Great menu, great drinks, good service.
- Cons: Can be pricey--still worth it though.

Mediocre
by atlexplorer at Citysearch
Have been here for lunch and dinner and some dishes were good like the empanadas and calamari appetizer, but our entrees were not that good. I had the pork stew-type dish which was recommended by the server and it was OK, I was expecting a lot more I guess. My boyfriend had a roast pork and it was not good at all, the pork was dry and it lacked flavor. Overall, it was nothing special, food lacked flavor, probably won't be having a repeat visit.

Complement your after dinner espresso with either the lightly sweet flan or the coconut-rich Cuban specialty, tres leches (three milk) cake.
