Review Summary

Cococina is widely celebrated for its sophisticated atmosphere, stunning modern decor, and vibrant energy, making it a standout destination in Montreal. Most guests rave about the high quality of the food, highlighting flavorful dishes that blend Moroccan and Spanish influences, alongside expertly crafted cocktails. While many diners praise the attentive and welcoming service provided by the staff and management, some feedback notes inconsistencies such as pressure to vacate tables within limited timeframes, occasional service delays, or specific dishes that did not meet expectations. Despite these varied experiences, the restaurant is frequently recommended for its upscale supper club vibe, excellent music, and memorable overall experience for dates, celebrations, and nights out with friends.

Cococina was honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had in Montreal.

The food tasted completely pre-cooked & simply reheated. The patatas bravas were basically inedible: dry, hard, & flavorless. Food quality was extremely disappointing. The $22 cocktails tasted like $1 drinks - badly made, unbalanced, & not worth the price at all.

The open kitchen filled the entire place with a strong cooking smell after only 30 minutes, to the point where our clothes smelled like food when we left. Personally, I also found the atmosphere cold & uncomfortable, more like sitting in a church than in a restaurant.

& I say this as someone who goes out often to some of the best restaurants in Montreal & doesn't mind spending money for quality. I almost never leave bad reviews, but this place absolutely does not deserve its prices or hype.

Le maître d'hôte offre un excellent service, rapide efficace & courtois. Il connaît bien le menu & met de l'avant des propositions intéressantes pour donner une expérience enrichissante & agréable. Le service était très bien synchronisé, la nourriture était bien apprêtée & chaude, permettant de goûter la qualité des aliments. Les verres arrivaient rapidement & étaient bien alcoolisés. Tout était parfait, nous avons passé une excellente soirée. Une expérience à revivre, sans aucun doute.

New hotspot in the old port of Montreal. Unbelievable decor, really swanky, quality food although a little pricey, & an amazing sound system with dj on most nights.

Terrible service really terrible. The staff is clueless, & spent more time ignoring customers than actually doing their jobs. Waited forever just to be acknowledged, & still disappointed. Easily one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had.

Très belle ambiance, serveuse extraordinaire.
Je tiens à mentionner qu'ils font faire payé l'eau, j'ai eu la surprise quand j'ai reçu la facture. On ne me l'a jamais mentionné.
Cependant malgré l'achalandage il a fallu attendre 40 minutes avant d'avoir les factures.
