   Food was bland and lacked a big flavor profile. I found a very sharp piece of bone in my tuna that cut the inside of my cheek. The only thing here that wowed me was how good the bread was. I would not recommend. If you have a choice, go to their sister restaurant Animae, which is amazing!

   Steak and salads were amazing I just wish they have more non seafood appetizers options and sides.

   First time coming here and were treated like old friends. From the moment we walked in the energy was so lively. Great crowd, great service shout out to our server Jacob, The menu is a creative take on French cuisine, Will definitely be coming back soon.

   First time at Le Coq and we will return. Our server was outstanding - I wish I remembered his name to properly thank him. We were celebrating our anniversary and he was very gracious, wishing us a happy anniversary and a great evening. My husband had a glass of wine and I thoroughly enjoyed a cerise et citron cocktail minus the firewater bitters. It was delicious! After looking over the menu, we decided to share a few items so we could taste as much as possible. We started with what was our favorite - the kanpachi (amberjack) crudo with a yummy ume vinaigrette, thinly sliced apples and a shallot jam. It was amazing and I'd order it again as my entree!! We then tried the onion tart - it was good, not great. A little on the greasy side with the short ribs in the center. We wouldn't order it again. We then shared a Denver steak and the kitchen was nice to split it for us. We paired that with a side of mushrooms and onions and a bordelaise sauce that was a bit salty for my taste, although my husband loved it. The steak was properly cooked and plenty for the two of us. We also shared the pomme darphin dish and definitely wouldn't order that again - it was a deep fried rectangle of shredded potatoes over creme fraiche and trout roe. The creme fraiche and trout roe were very good but the potatoes were very oily and pretty flavorless. That was the most disappointing dish of the night. We were too full to try a dessert but I heard the couple next to us rave about the cheesecake. Maybe next time! The place was packed and loud so conversation was difficult but overall, we enjoyed ourselves and will return to try a few other dishes and get that kanpachi crudo once again!!!

   Loved it!! Great food, service and really enjoyed the lively atmosphere. The basque cheesecake was unbelievable. And you have to get the baguette.

    Noisy restaurant and only half full on a Thursday evening at 7. The food was good, 'though not outstanding. The menu was quite limited. Presentation was definitely poor an unimaginative.
