Service is impeccable. Ambiance is ok. We went during the day. I feel it will have a good night vibe. My cousin said the oxtails were phenomenal. I'm waiting to taste my jerk chicken pasta. I also ordered bread pudding. I will come back to add to my post. So far so good. I'm back. Jerk Chicken Pasta is delicious. The whiting fish is in a category by itself. I will return next time I'm in Hempstead. read more

Coco's - Oxtail Dinner - Caribbean Near Me - Hempstead, New York

We finally tried this place tonight and it did not disappoint! My husband had the oxtail Mac and cheese and it was a massive serving and he ate the whole thing in one sitting because it was so yummy. I had the salmon sliders and they were just delicious. The sauce they put on the sliders was toooo good! We will definitely add this to our Friday night takeout list. Looking forward to trying other menu items! read more

The service is great, the owners are kind and customer service-driven. If you plan on dining in, please note that there is no bathroom and I was directed to go across the street. I ordered through an app for p/u, and when I got there they didn't have anything I ordered. I ended up getting chicken wings, mac and cheese, and a piece of whiting. They also gave me a free piece of bread pudding. The chicken and fish lacked flavor and was greasy. The bread pudding was dry, but the flavor was there. The mac and cheese was not creamy and there was no flavor. I want to give them another try because some of the other photos look better than what I had. Maybe I went on an off day. read more

Ok I didn't know where to start but as a chef myself I finally found a place I can get food and not stresss The employees are so nice and very ac accommodating I probably didn't even wait no more than 10 minutes for my food. I got jerk chicken with Rasta pasta and I know it's a little basic, but it came out very very well and fashionably on time as far as the place and how it looks, they could do a little better, but I look at the location there and you know only time will tell, but I wish them the best of luck. I think they will last very long and Hempstead thank you again read more

First time trying Coco's for their $1.00 Friday wings special. We ordered the garlic Parmesan, garlic lemon & sorrel BBQ wings. The food was cooked made to order & delicious. I will definitely be back to try their Tuesday Taco's. read more

Outstanding! A true hidden gem owned by a lovely couple who cook together everyday. Not only is the food out of this world but their chemistry together make the experience that much more special. The food is pleasantly flavored with just the amount of spices and character. Every bite brought a smile to my face. While it isn't really a dine in establishment they welcomed me to sit at a table and served me on china with real flatware. It is an open kitchen and I watched as they prepared multiple meals for pick up, take out and Uber Eats. Every dish was prepared fresh and with care. I plan on making Coco's a regular spot when I crave the best Caribbean food. read more

I've never been so disappointed in my life! The fact that people on instagram and tik tok ripped and raved about this restaurant is crazy. The food lacks flavor for sure and the amount of food they give for the price is nuts! First off the oxtail was so tuff! Not edible. $24 for what!? I asked for Rasta pasta and got Alfredo which was also lacking flavor. The stew chicken was not in any type of sauce/stew. I had 4 pieces of chicken back that was cut up. The cabbage wasn't good. Lacked seasoning. As well as the collard greens and Mac. Highly disappointed in the food quality. Salt and pepper go a long way. I've had my share of Caribbean food and this not it! I do however appreciate the staff being so friendly and welcoming. As to why I'm going to give 2 stars. read more

Coco's - Jerk Chicken with veggies - Caribbean Near Me - Hempstead, New York

Now I have ordered from this place several times before and every time the food was amazing. I ordered the salmon and rasta pasta last week, and i got food poisoning from them. I'm not sure how the salmon or shrimp was prepared but I was violently sick for two days. This used to be one of my favorite places and now I'm sad because I can't go here anymore. read more

Food is terrible!!! I ordered via ubereats and found this place on IG. I figured I order from here and it was terrible. I ordered Rasta pasta and jerk chicken with rice and peas and steam vegetables. Jerk chicken is more like bbq chicken and the rice was terrible, super soft and mushy. The pasta was not good either. If you want real Jamaica food this place is not it. Please get off the island and go to queens or Brooklyn. Never again read more

Food was amazing. Everything was well seasoned. Service was excellent. NGL the reviews on here had me skeptical, but everything was AMAZING. We had the shrimp rasta pasta and crab legs and shrimp seafood boil. We will definitely be back! read more

Outstanding food and service. The woman behind the counter was an absolute sweetheart. The oxtail max and cheese was so delicious and heartwarming. Probably the best Caribbean food I've found in Long Island so far! The vibe in the restaurant is welcoming and it smells amazing right when you walk in. Definitely will be back as this is a new go to spot for me! read more
