Oh all the varieties of Pizza and Pasta! You must come back and try it all! Went there on a weekday dinner without reservations, and got seated instantly, thanks to the sweet staff. While ordering, fresh focaccia was served in a easy pull apart form. The staff was nice enough to tell us all the specials and recommendations. We decided to order a Pizza (Guido), Eggplant Parmiagania, and Pappardelle Bolognese. Each dish was uniquely delicious, couldn't pick a favorite. Portions were perfect for three people. Super tasty and flavorful. They sell Mole Cola, the Coke-cola of Italy, only much better. The staff and service couldn't be any more outstanding. You can also tell the food was good when they're constantly getting Uber/ Door dash orders. Love the restaurant/ Italian store look. This place could be easily crowded during weekend dinner, but still great for parties more than 2. Try also their cocktails and dessert. Their canoli was a chocolate kind! Definitely will come back and try their different pizza and pasta flavors. Street parking only. Memorable dinner.

One of our favorites for the last 20 years. The food is awesome. Better if they didn’t close in the middle of the day.

There was a girl very rude, I was picking up my order and she was not really happy with her job, she was very very rude to me.. it seems like she doesn't wanna work..
I'm not sure if she still works there because I'm not planning to go there anymore
I don't know her name but she's a skinny girl with glasses

I don’t even want to review this place out of selfishness - I want it all to myself. Great food, cozy atmosphere, fantastic service. A perfect little Italian joint.

Good food and amazing service. Just moved to the area and absolutely love this restaurant. I believe it’s also family owned and operated.

If you want to feel like you just stopped in at your grandma's house for dinner, this is the place. The service was the best we've ever had at a restaurant, felt like we really were guests in his home. And the food, good lord, the food was divine. Simple, classic, fresh and delicious. I'm honestly not sure why I'm not here every night for dinner because it's amazing!

We each got the “Frank's ancient grain Tortelli con Sugo” and something about it upset both of our stomachs. Our friends got pizzas and they seemed fine.

There was clearly something wrong with our food, you should not feel stomach discomfort after a meal.

This was our first time there, post pandemic, as well as the first bad experience.

Lo Coco’s is one of those restaurants that just wins your heart with its food and its service!

Walking into Lo Coco’s gives you the impression that this casual spot will serve you average, casual food, but this couldn’t be farther from the truth. This restaurant, known for its pizza dough is so much more than a pizza joint… the pasta dishes are out of this world!

I ordered the Combination pizza, since the pizza is frequently spoken about this place. My wife ordered the Eggplant Parmigiana and we also ordered the Tortelli with Pesto. The pizza definitely lived up to the hype, which normally is never the case. The crust had a great crispness to it and the toppings are high quality. My wife commented on how good her Eggplant Parmigiana was… the Tortelli with Pesto though was amazing!!! I will come back for that dish alone, it was just simply divine.

As for service, Joseph was our server and he was just simply amazing. He added to the whole charm of the restaurant; since it was our first time, we spent the time going through the menu with us.

This spot is not just a neighborhood gem, it’s a Bay Area gem!
