Dj playing hip hop music created a great vibe for food and drinks. There's indoor and outdoor seating. The menu items are soulful and include some impressive options. As soon as you walk on servers are constantly helping you with your requests. The food and drinks taste as good as they look. The frosted pina colada was tasty as well. We didn't do the hookah, but others were enjoying it. This was a great experience. read more

Stopped in after work during the later part of the evening for a cocktail and possibly a bite to eat, before heading home. This was my first time at Copacabana. The kitchen was closed when I got there, so I pulled up to the bar. A very smooth, very pleasant bartender named Shak made a rum and pineapple cocktail for me. It was pretty to look at and went down easy. Easy going down but that tipsy giggle creeped up on me though, in the best way. I needed to feel laid back and unhurried. I was made to feel this way at Copacabana. I was the last customer in the house and Shak the bartender didn't rush me. Be advised-my drink was pricey but excellent. I would love to try the food. Menu and pics online look amazing. Maybe I'll order ahead next time. Maybe I'll come in on my night off. Either way, I'm coming back! read more

I haven't tried the food here, but I didn't try the drinks... it took the bartender about 3 tries to get a good drink. First one was horrible... bitter and sour, the second one extremely too sweet and the third one was just juice. When we asked what the ingredients were he couldn't even tell us. The hostess were friendly and helpful. The prices were a bit high for the horrible drinks. Dj and music was good the ambiance is casual it's like a straight narrow pathway. If you looking for good music and hookah yea but I wasn't pleased with the drinks. read more

This place is a VIBE! We came here on a Saturday evening, and it wasn't crowded. It could be because of the freezing temperatures we've been recently experiencing. Anyway, myself and 3 homgirls came out to get litt and have a good meal. That was DEFINITELY had!!! We each had different drinks, and food, so we could get a good idea of the menu. We all LOVED the sauces included with our appetizers. The oxtail egg rolls were on POINT; and that gravy on the side was on target ! The Salmon bits and Calamari was delish too We didn't fancy the fish taco, unfortunately. All and all, this spot had goooood music, drinks and food. We shall return read more

Went on a Sunday around 5pm. They have an all day brunch menu. It wasn't busy so no long wait for a table.

Went to Copacabana Seafood & Brunch on a Friday evening. Dj was by the door playing old school Reggae and R&B good music and good vibes. We were a group of seven , we got seated right away in the back. We ordered oxtail egg rolls , salmon , rice and peas , shrimp rasta pasta. Of course , I ordered from the brunch menu. The oxtail egg rolls came with oxtail gravy and we put the gravy pon da rice ! Jerk on the Salmon , all the food was good , all the seasoning flavors blended together gave a Caribbean flair. The only thing I didn't like was the food came out in intervals , one person got an entree , ten minutes later another entree came out. It was seven of us , the minutes started adding up. A manager came over to check on us , I explained that we were still waiting for food and she took care of it. We wand up sharing the plates ! All good , I would visit again. read more

I took myself to Copacabana seafood and brunch one Sunday after church and had a ball. The rum punch was excellent and strong which I appreciated lol and the food was great. The fish was well seasoned and the chef personally came and checked on me to ensure I've enjoyed my food. The service was great as well and I love that they have outdoor seating in the back. I will be back once the weather is nicer. read more

It was cool. I came here after my hair appointment. It was 11am and I was their first patron. I sat at the bar and drink two mimosas. I ordered waffles and jerk chicken wings with mango sauce. Although the wings were tasty I prefer them crispy. I had a waffle with whipped cream as well. The only thing I did not understand was the plastic cutlery and lack of cloth napkins. The only napkin I had came with the cutlery from the plastic package. I could have asked the bartender for more napkins but instead I just washed my hands in the bathroom. The prices were reasonable. I may come back with friends. read more

Copacabana Seafood & Brunch - Waffles With Wings - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

food came very late it's almost as if they stopped running the business because they were closing soon

I had a great time 1st time there. The drinks were great the food was good I ordered salmon with beans and rice and broccoli. My husband ordered snapper with beans and rice and veggies. The rice had a spice in it I didn't like but over all it was good. The chilli shrimp was the best. My server was pleasant and attentive. Our food came out in good time. The DJ was playing good tunes. It was clean and a very friendly environment. I needed a restaurant to go to that closed late my husband gets off 8pm so this was right up my alley I was a little apprehensive it was new to us so now we have a go to place after work. read more

Let me tell you this . The fact that this place over charges for literally everything I think the service should be SO MUCH better . It was a Saturday afternoon- we walked in . It was us, 2 people at the bar and 3 people in the back finishing up their meals (that dude who owns black ink and his company) So we just assumed that we would get our food quickly. So NOT the case , 1st of all the little girl sat us and left us - literally taking all these take out orders before she came to our table (I say little girl because she looked 16/17 years old) I got up because I was clearly annoyed , She came with an apology and took our orders . A burger . Some fried shrimp And some wings . Thats it ! Thats all We sat and waited for LITERALLY AN HOUR before she came to say that the there was a mix up in the kitchen and order would be out in 5 mins . We ended up waiting 20 more minutes before we left and went to Peaches where we knew we would at least get our food before the day ended . Would I try them again ? Nope . Im good . One spot who just wont get my money . Completely undeserving . read more

Came here with a friend as this was a good halfway spot between our places, and the reviews were generally positive (and the food looked good)! The windows/entrance doors are tinted dark, but there's a sign indicating that the place is open. The interior is pretty basic but nice, no frills to the place. Besides my friend and I, there was just one customer sitting at the bar, so we asked if we could sit towards the back as the music was incredibly loud at the front. The music was still very loud in the back, but I was at least able to hold a conversation with my friend. We scanned the menu off the QR codes displayed on each table. I ordered the oxtail entree with a side of mac, and my friend got salmon with a side of mac as well. I also had the Spiked Lemonade, which was very sweet and so much bigger than I expected! I was definitely feeling tipsy by the end of the drink, and I only had the one! The food was great! The mac and cheese was probably the highlight of both of our meals, but I thoroughly enjoyed my oxtail too. Our server told me that the cooks weren't pleased with the standard of the rice they'd already made, so they were making fresh white rice for my meal, which would make it take a little longer. I didn't mind the wait and it tasted great, so I'm thankful for their effort. Speaking of, our server was so incredibly nice and thoughtful, and came to check on us many times during our meal. She brought us extra napkins from the bar without us asking, and we did have disposable cutlery set at the table, which was odd but not the first time I've experienced this in NYC. I took most of my meal home with me, and my friend also left very stuffed. For two entrees, two sides, and one drink, we paid a few cents over $100, and I think it was worth it. All the portions were pretty big! While not the most elevated dining experience I've ever had, I'd definitely come back here for the quality of the food. read more

Helloooooo yelpers, I have another review , I came to this restaurant to support a black owned business . It's been opened since June 2022 , no hard liquor right now , they are working on it ... when I say they I mean the "YOUNG BROTHER AND SISTER DUO" love it that there young , I'm guessing early 30's. Late 20's. Proud of them . Drink menu they came up with is a great idea which are several types of wine drinks, they mix the wine with other things , like Taylor port and sprite and something else and it was delicious, the presentation of the glass is so nice... love the wine idea for sure!!! Now let's talk about the food , I ordered fried chicken and fries which that combo wasn't on the menu, the fried chicken came with waffles and you get leg thigh etc... one of the owners accommodate me with serving me leg and thigh and French fries because I didn't want the waffle. One thing about me I don't want my steak cut up nor my chicken , therefore I gave 4 stars because I ordered leg and thigh but I got a breast which was cut up and lawwwddddd I was mad AF lol butttt I ate it and didn't complain because the owner did accommodate me. Chicken was seasoned however it wasn't straight out the grease hot it was more room temperature, noooooo I need that chicken dropped in the oil when I order chicken .. seems like it's already cooked , I get it , your a new business and they are figuring things out ,, but pleasseeeeeeee fry the chicken when ordered, that way you won't have to throw away chicken that's left over .. I'll for sure be back in a few months to try some other dishes , by then things should be much better ... menu looks good. Ambiance is cute not a big place but it works , they also have a backyard area you could dine at. Bathroom was clean . They also have hookah at an additional charge. Service was good and the bartender was making sure I was good .... I say "YES" go check it out and support !!! P.S. that was one piece of chicken that was cut up.. if a customer order leg and thigh , give them that. Ok that's all read more

This was a nice visit but the food does not justify the price at all whatsoever. I received great service it's a cute spot but even with all of that I cannot justify the amount of money that our meal cost. It just felt like it cost 200% more than any other place that sells the exact same thing. For the reason I'm out. read more

Let me start off by saying this place caught my eye because they do brunch all day I love me a good brunch so here's we we ended up. When we got there they asked us if we wanted to sit outside or in at first I said outside just to have some good sun but when we got back there it was giving beach vibes there was sand and a pool. I'm not a beach person so it didn't work for me but for those of you who like to put your feet in the sand this may be the right spot for you. We came back inside and found out we could still have brunch even if you wasn't ordering from the brunch menu that made us super happy so we rolled with the punches and ordered our drinks I was in the mood for mimosas and my boyfriend was in the mood for rum punches. In my opinion that tasted nothing like a rum punch but it was still good though so they get a pass. The lights were dim so it gave off sexy and intimate I was feeling the conversation and the music everything flowed so nicely they waitress staff were very good they always made sure we wanted for anything and when our glasses were almost empty they made sure to fill them right back up definitely 5 stars I highly recommend if you're trying to do brunch but it's too late and you want a decent amount of drinks. I had the sweet chili salmon and rice and peas it was so delicious the salmon was butter soft and seasoned so well melted right in my mouth. My bf had shrimp and jerk salmon and of course I had to taste his and wheeeeewwww it was yummy the salmon bites with jerk sauce perfect combination to end our night with our bellies satisfied. Definitely recommend read more

OMG OMG OMG the oxtail Rasta pasta was EVERYTHING! I don't want it from anywhere else. The only thing is that it was pretty oily and ended up upsetting my stomach but honey, it was well worth it and I'll do it again service was okay, I was not crazy about the way they make their drinks (they create their version of cocktails with a wine base) If you are meeting for deep conversation, I don't recommend it because they play loud music and there is a live DJ. GREAT place, def check it out read more

Stopped into this newly opened bar this past weekend to grab a drink. The first thing I noticed was that they only have wine based drinks, there is no hard alcohol that they serve there. The second thing is that they charge about $20 for each drink which is pretty expensive. The drinks were tasty and good but not strong enough since it's wine with lots of juice. Even though they're expensive, they do come in nice mini fishbowls which probably hold more than just one drink so it might even out! Didn't have any food here as we went after dinner. read more

Love it her we had a time ... waiters and drinks were lit... ILL BE BACK I'll be sure to tell all my friends

Was seated here at 658 ordered my food at 715 didn't get my chicken and waffles till 822 just for my order to still come out wrong .. & never received the cup of water I asked for ... it's evident this establishment has a lot to work on.need I mention that it was not busy enough for my food to be backed up.. no communication as for the status of my order, I had to constantly get up to inquire with many other staff with the status of my food... As much as I am a brunch person I would never ever recommend someone to come here .. However I will say that the chef I believe if that's what she was did come to apologize for the lack of communication at 822, she did ask if I wanted my order to be done over but I declined because there was no way I was going to wait for another half or hour for proper waffles / chicken ... she did inform me that she'd comp my bill which she did . So claps for that but overall a terrible experience. Also I have attached a receipt that I'd like to be educated on.. the bottom says " 15% service charge included for parties of one or larger.. gratituity is applied automatically "... now if I'm not mistaking seeing how I am a foodie who goes out and try many different restaurants & locations every chance that I get so maybe I'm ignorant or this establishment is jus playing in my face .. but correct me if I'm wrong..? they are basically telling me in short that this is a tip that is automatically applied to the bill... however, when I questioned the young lady about whether or not this 15% charge that is on my bill is the young lady's tip seeing how I was considering pOsSiBlY leaving an additional tip, she told me no it is not and that it goes directly to the restaurant for simply being there... fellow Yelper's am I missing something???? Pls feel free to comment and enlighten me or message me :) hope this overall review was helpful to the prospective customers and establishment. Also come with your own napkin / tissue if necessary because the only one you'll get is what comes with your cutlery read more

I went because of the tiktok hype but I must say I believe the servers are racist. We went in and some others came right after us. The waitress put our order in first but we were the last to get our food. Also the drinks were definitely a 0/10. The food was good but does not outweigh the terrible service and drinks. read more

No AC, no high chairs & water is $10 a person because they only have bottled spring water. I don't recommend

The food was meh and OVER priced! T was good. Space to small and cramped. Don't think I will be coming back . The waitress was very nice but did not tend to us as she should have. read more

If you're looking for good food and service with quick access to public transportation look no further than Copacabana-brooklyn. I haven't had their entire menu yet but everything I've had was perfection. The waffles were flavorful, soft in the inside with a light crunch on the outside (that's how I asked for it and they delivered), succulent wings and fried chicken (and this is coming from a person who doesn't like chicken), and the fish soup.... Guys, if you like fish, this is a must try. I'm usually heartbroken when they tell me they don't have it. It's slap full of flavor with REAL bites of fish and soft dumplings (not that hard chewy dumplings you get at some places). Twice I went with different friends, told them to order it and they passed on in. Both times... Yes BOTH Times they ended up eating out all my soup then having to reorder it. It's just that good... Like the Americans say "it's slap yo mama good!" But I'd never advise you to slap your mother. Don't do that. You will loose your teeth and won't be able to enjoy the delectable morsels at Copacabana-brooklyn. Walk-ins are welcomed. Enjoy! read more

Very cozy. Great service & very tasty food! Oxtail Egg rolls are a must try!!! Music had me dancing in my seat. Will definitely be back.

$20 for a house tequila cocktail that tastes like benadryl in a glass. Not worth it, one of the worst cocktails I've had in nyc.

The food, vibe, ambiance, music & everything was amazing. Lena was my waitress she had top tier service. She gave me free shots for my bday. She also kept checking on me to see if I was good & I was enjoying everything. My fav appetizer was the oxtail egg rolls. I also enjoyed the salmon bites w. Sweet chilli sauce, honey jerk lambchops with rice & Peas, sweet plantains was great. All the food tasted great. The music was everything. The rum punch was strong but tasted good. Definitely was an enjoyable bday. Will be coming back again. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Everyone was dancing & having fun. read more

The service was great but the food was amazing . i came from the bronx and I'll be back soon.

I WOULDN'T GO BACK TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT! I love to support black businesses, but this is not it! The food is terrible and overpriced, drinks are okay, but there is an unnecessary 15% service charge automatically added to the bill when you dine in, plus you still have to pay gratuity. While I don't mind paying for service whether it's good or subpar (I always give 22% or more) the business owner had a very nasty attitude when asked about the 15% service charge. Like very disgusting attitude, I was shocked! Her response they pay their workers $15 a hour, and there are times they don't have customers. It's called seasonality, learn the industry and learn your customers! The even crazier part is while we were being seated there was an older couple leaving going off about the same thing, now I understand why they were mad. Trust me, there are SEVERAL black owned businesses in Brooklyn you can support, this isn't one. Save your coins! read more
