Le Coq

We had a fantastic evening at this lively, vibrant restaurant! Seated immediately upon arrival, our server Cory was prompt, attentive, and delightful. The Date Night menu was a highlight—rich Salon Rillette with hot Bing bread, perfectly cooked Denver steak and prawns surf & turf, and a decadent chocolate mousse to finish. The energetic music adds great atmosphere, though a few decibels lower would help conversation. Floor managers checked in, making us feel truly cared for. Highly recommend—excellent overall!

Celebrated our anniversary here, and everything was spectacular! For cocktails, I had the Cha, which was a Japanese whiskey + green tea concoction. I really enjoyed it, and ordered another. My wife had the Neuf Connection which was refreshing, but switched to the Langlois Rose later. We started with the Tuna Tartare and Fried Oysters, both fantastic. Fried Oysters were more like a tempura, which I love. For entrees we shared the popular Steak Frites, which lived up to the hype, and splurged on the Miyazaki A5 strip which melted in the mouth. We ordered the Pave as a side based on the server recommendation, and it was like a delicious hash brown. Pistachio for dessert which was good but nothing special. The service was exceptional. At one point Pinay Chef Tara Monsod herself came out to s

Had a FANTABULOUS girls’ night here. We came on a Sunday, and it was pretty low-key, but we heard that Fridays and Saturdays can be overly exciting. Will have to come back and give it another try when we’re in town. Dinner was DELISH and Caleb was the best server! We had a friend that didn’t drink, but he brought her a very small glass of light champagne for her to sip on. After dinner, we moved over to the bar for some cocktails and closed the place down. Would definitely recommend this restaurant; food and cocktails were really good. The severs, bust boy, bartender and hosts were also very nice.

Friday night at Le Coq with friends for a birthday celebration and WOW — every single dish was chef’s kiss! Kudos to Chef Tara 💖 The food was truly incredible. Our favorite are the mussels, celery salad, steak and tuna tartare. I've tried most of their cocktails before but first time trying out their "Cha" (Japanese whisky+ green tea and calamansi) So, so good! I ordered 2! Service was absolutely impeccable. Le Coq is probably one the most beautiful restaurants in San Diego. Owner, Brian Malarkey stopping by our table totally topped the night! Can't wait to come back!

Checked out Le Coq with a group of 4 to celebrate our friends’ birthdays! We made a reservation for around 6pm on a weekday and there seemed to still be a lot of tables open by the time our dinner ended. I hear this place can get very busy so I recommend making reservations regardless. The place is intimate which makes it a great place for celebrations. Parking: This place shares a similar problem along with any other business in downtown La Jolla and that is *parking*. Make sure to allot for time searching for street parking. I believe there might be some paid lots around as well. Service: Great service by Randall! He explained everything well and gave us a few suggestions. Our food came out in a timely manner. Food: We ordered family style which I believe was the best way to try out m
