Reviews describe Cococina as a standout dining spot with delicious, beautifully presented dishes that blend Moroccan and Spanish influences, complemented by creative cocktails and a warm, vibrant, upscale atmosphere that works for celebrations or a cozy date night. The interior design is repeatedly praised as stylish and the overall vibe is welcoming and lively, sometimes described as instagrammable. Service is a mix of high praise for attentiveness and professionalism and occasional notes of slowness or miscommunication, but the consensus is that when the service hits its stride the experience is memorable. Dishes like tajine variations, seafood platters, octopus, calamars, and lamb receive frequent compliments, while a few items such as certain shrimp preparations or poutine have caveats about taste or portion size and some reviews mention timing constraints that affected the meal. Overall, Cococina is viewed as a strong, high quality option in Montreal with many guests planning to return and recommend it, while acknowledging that as a newer venue some aspects can still be refined.
Had such a great time at Cococcina! The drinks were amazing & we ordered a couple entrees like the grilled octopus & kefta that were delicious. Our server Andrea was very attentive & gave us great recommendations. Will definitely be returning.

Amazing experience all around. The food was delicious & clearly made with care, the service was friendly & attentive, & the ambience created a great atmosphere for the whole meal. A wonderful spot for a memorable dining experience. Highly recommend.
We celebrated my best friend's birthday at Cococina & it was such a great night! The food was delicious!! especially the tajine boulettes, so flavorful & comforting. The calamars were fresh & crispy, & the pastilla was small but perfect as a starter.
The vibe was amazing, warm & lively perfect for a birthday dinner. & the dessert was phenomenal, definitely the highlight of the night!
Service had a small mix-up (my friend got the wrong order twice), but it wasn't a big deal & didn't ruin our experience. Overall, we had a beautiful evening & would definitely come back!
I visited Montreal on a girls trip & absolutely loved Cococina! The food was delicious & the atmosphere was very inviting. Our server Andrea took great care of us all night & made sure we all had an amazing experience. Will definitely visit again on my next trip to Montreal!!
Excellent spot si tu veux actually enjoy la nourriture à montreal !!
Les plats sont diversifiés & les goûts sont excellent !!
Petite mention spécial au tajine de poulet & olives qui a une forme complètement différente d'un tajine traditionnel mais qui enveloppe le goût parfaitement !
A truly memorable dining experience. The food was exquisite, with every dish showing a balance of creativity & precision that makes each bite stand out. The service was excellent, delivered with warm professionalism & great attention to detail. The atmosphere brings everything together beautifully-the interior design is impressive, stylish, & creates a welcoming vibe from the moment you walk in. A standout restaurant I'd gladly visit again.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Cococina. The food was outstanding-beautifully presented, full of flavor, & clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. Every dish we tried exceeded our expectations. The cocktails were just as impressive: creative, perfectly balanced, & expertly crafted.
The atmosphere was warm, vibrant, & inviting, making it the perfect place to relax & enjoy a special evening. But what truly made our night unforgettable was the exceptional service from Andrea. She was attentive, friendly, & professional, always making sure we had everything we needed with a genuine smile. Her attention to detail & kindness made us feel truly valued as guests.
We will definitely be coming back & highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience.

Had such a great time at Cococina! The atmosphere was amazing, & the food was delicious & beautifully presented. The service was friendly, attentive, & made the whole experience even better.
Amazing service by Andrea! I really enjoyed my experience on Saturday night. She was attentive & made our night a blast. The drinks were on point, & the food was excellent as well. We tried the shrimp, the octopus, & the seafood platter - honestly, I highly recommend all of them!
Nourriture pas mal mais le service était merdique. Pastilla fruit de mer etait tres petite pour share & le Pain était brûler & me len chargé 4$ extra car ca venait pas avec les boulettes de viande & ils nous len pas dit. Si j'y retourne? Jamais!! never again!
Je suis allé plusieurs fois dans ce restaurant, que ce soit pour regarder un match dans une ambiance incroyable ou pour fêter l'anniversaire de mon amie, & à chaque visite l'expérience a été parfaite.
Le service est tout simplement excellent : des serveurs à l'hôtesse, jusqu'au manager, tout le monde est accueillant, professionnel & attentionné. On se sent vraiment bien pris en charge.
La nourriture est exquise, avec un magnifique mélange de saveurs marocaines & espagnoles qui fait toute la différence. Chaque plat est savoureux & préparé avec soin.
Je recommande vivement ce restaurant, que ce soit pour une soirée entre amis, un événement spécial ou simplement pour passer un bon moment dans une superbe ambiance !
Manque total de professionnalisme. Le dépôt sur ma carte de crédit m'a été chargé malgré ma présence. J'ai dû appeler 3 fois pour finalement avoir mon argent 15 jours plus tard. Le propriétaire te dit qu'il va te rappeler mais ne le fait pas, mentionne que c'est la faute de la plate-forme sans prendre d'initiative pour te rembourser. Totalement inacceptable.
Cela est sans parler des erreurs le soir même.
J'arrive avec ma mère qui a une canne car elle est tombée & lorsque je dit la porte est là, le jeune homme à l'entrée nous dit : Non ici c'est Cococina. Il semblait trouver qu'on était pas assez jet set pour son restaurant.
On ne prend pas alcool, la serveuse nous dit; voyons c'est samedi soir. Cela ne passe plus en 2026.
Les jupes en cuir très courtes des serveuses sont de mauvais goût.
Donc fuyez ce restaurant.
