Reviews for Le Coucou in New York, NY

Beautiful interior decor! The food was just ok, maybe we ordered the wrong dishes, but it really would have been nice for the... waiter to give us a more detailed explanation of the menu items of instead of recommending us dishes like sweetbread withoutexplaining what sweetbread is. The duck was great but overly salted, as was every other dish we ordered. Would recommend as adate spot. Read more

Beautiful and elegant place with amazing ambiance. Food i think was generally good but nothing too out of this world. (Also may... be a bit biased because i?m not too fond of French cuisine). But nonetheless it was still a good meal. I believe we got setmeals to share so we could try more and it felt like a good decision. Restaurant is generally pricey but i can see why theyespecially for the service, ambiance and food. Read more

First I would like to say such a beautiful ambiance! My friends and I really enjoyed the whole vibe. We ordered the oysters +... grilled calamari to start - the oysters were absolutely delicious the flavor was out of this world had sort of a Asian cuisinetaste. Honestly, one of the best oysters I've ever had. For main course I had the lobster, it was cooked to perfection andthe sauce was a delicious creamy sauce. The steak was also delicious would recommend medium/rare will make a difference intaste. The expresso martini was delicious- must have for a cocktail. We ordered all the dessert- my favorite was the chocolate???? ???? ???? A must go for a dinner date or friend gathering. Read more

Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Had high hopes for the duck and rabbit before coming here due to all the good reviews. But after visit,... I'd probably not come again given the service and the food which are both below expectations. Ordered the squid, rabbit, andthe duck entrees. It's good portion for 2 people. We didn't go for the "A Very Coucou Dinner" option as our waiter told us theentree option is a mystery. I like how they prepare the proteins in various ways and you get to taste different combinations offlavors with each entree. However, most of the dishes tend to get too salty and the sauce is too thick. The dessert is too denseand very sweet. In addition, the service can improve as the waiter was not very attentive and did not give very thoroughintroduction of the dishes compared to other Michelin star restaurants. Read more

I love the dessert here! The cream on the top is not that sweet, which I really like, lobster is good. Others are average... quality in fine dining. However, I don?t think the taste will attract me to go here again. Nothing special here. Read more

I had the prix fixe lunch on a Saturday and I loved every single moment. The spacious, welcoming, and cozy room, the great,... friendly, and attentive service, and the excellent food all come together perfectly. The menu goes in different directions,staying true to French cuisine and at the same time combining it in new ways, and doing it with an excellent hand. My favoriteswere the spongy bread (seriously, it's that good), the chicken and sweetbreads in pastry, the mussels served like snails, andall the sweets. Read more

Great moody scene. Excellent ingredients and flavor. Could tell that they sous vided the lobster tail and claw at two different... temp, excellent texture. Highlight was the sweetbread. One disappointment was that the peas in my veal tongue was probably froma frozen bag. Not juicy or popping. For a restaurant this scale, I would expect to have in-season ingredients to be extremelyfresh. Read more

The customer service is exceptional they knew what was vegan, vegetarian food restrictions etc. The portions were small but... surprised us to be very filling by the time we made it to dessert I could barely eat any of it. My stomach felt so good aftereating the vegetables cooked in apple sauce, the broth was like no other, distinct and healing. Although we came in 30 minutesbefore close they still welcomed us. I love the long candles on the tables but I don?t know how I didn?t burn my hair. Therestrooms smelt really bad and the tunnel to it too like a sewage issue. The ambience was set, the plants were beautiful andthe hand soap was an experience. Overall I would go back. Read more
