If you understand that it's not just about price and food but the entire experience from the time you walk in to the time you leave you will enjoy yourself and love every second.

Anna and István were fantastic! Great service and location!

I will say the drinks are great if you love rum which I do! They were delicious. Especially the Pina Colada whish isnt my normal go to. However, the food lacked flavor for the prices to be what they were. Overall, the vibe was nice. Our favorite was the empanadas. A great place for appetizers and drinks to start the evening off.

Food was eh and servers were nice but everything took a long time to receive. The drinks are great. Would probably recommend for patio cocktails but not dinner.

Love dining or sitting at the bar. Speedy and attentive service. Recommend the Jerk chicken dish (spicy though)! Crab fried rice was too salty and small portion. Bartender on Friday night was awesome. Can’t go wrong with the banana cocktail or the Hotel Especial.

I had dinner with friends outside in really nice weather. It’s like a little oasis for relaxing.

FANTASTIC restaurant! Drinks are on point, food is amazing, and the staff makes this one of our fav restaurants and definitely a repeat! 10/10 recommend!

Went there for dinner last night and once again, it was great! We both got the cubano, but we’ve also had just about everything on the menu and it’s all delicious. We always get the tostones too. They’re absolutely killer. As for drinks, the Hotel Nacional is hands-down my favorite cocktail in Birmingham. We always recommend this place when people are coming to visit or for a great date spot. This place is a can’t-miss in Bham.

Cayo Coco is such a cool spot in downtown Bham! Primarily reviewing the bar service/area because I’ve never gone for a full meal. The cocktails here are phenomenal every time, the staff behind the bar are always friendly and take obvious care in making good drinks. The atmosphere is so nice. I love sitting at the bar for a couple drinks and always leave in a good mood. Have had a couple of the small plates including the crawfish mofongo and enjoyed whatever I’ve ordered. Definitely a great spot for dates or if you have friends or family in town and want to do something different.

What a cool spot! The service was top tier, very accommodating, and gave outstanding suggestions. We got 4 appetizers, and honestly you could go drink rum and eat appetizers and be very happy. The appetizers we on another level. I have no complaints. The empanadas, so delicious and flavorful. The cornbread, was shockingly delicious! The tostones, wow! The cheese dip is the best I ever had. Dipping the empanada in that cheese makes my heart happy.
The Cuban was good, my only gripe is it needed more mustard. It was still very delicious. All the drinks were amazing, I like sweet drinks so I got the guri guri and the zombie.

This is a Hidden Gem!!

Friendly service. Good food and cocktails. Would love to see a broader menu. I wish them luck. They try hard and I appreciate that.

Tried every cocktail on the menu and some a couple of times. We all had our favorites, and all said best cocktails we have yet while out and about lately. Might be a little costly for a lot of drinking but VERY good.

Absolutely amazing EVERYTHING here! From the service to the food and the atmosphere - wow! Definitely try their version of the Zombie. 🍷

Amazing atmosphere, great food and drinks. I highly recommend!!
