Food was hit or miss. Some basic tapas (potato bravos) were average.

Came here as a recommendation from a friend and did not disappoint. Great tapa food for having a group of friends chill, conversate and enjoying the moment. The gambas negras was a little different than what I expected but all the other foods were great. Highly recommend getting the patatas bravas.

Beware of getting what you paid for. I ordered two espresso martinis while sitting at the bar. The bartender used Smirnoff vodka, despite the menu explicitly saying it’s mixed with Hangar One. When I asked him about it, he informed me that Smirnoff ($13 per 750 ml) is superior to Hangar One ($29 per 750 ml).
Great location, great vibe, great service, and great food. But they are clearly lying about the quality of liquor and at $17 per drink, it’s reasonable to expect an upper shelf liquor especially when the menu calls for it.

Weird review here- the food was very good but a bit overpriced, I assume for the location, which was also nice, but for the sake of size the layout was odd and the tables were cramped, I felt for the amazing service team having to navigate that.
The presentation of both the food and the limited space was excellent, and some of the food wowed, and some was a bit lackluster (meatballs were barely put together, prawns were a bit burnt, but the potatoes were so delightful and the calamari was phenomenal (I like it salty and it was!)
Going with a four, for the experience and the fun of tapas, with the killer location and superb service. This was well worth it, I just wouldn't go often for the price and size.

Coqueta has been a go to for me but the food last night was so disappointing. Ham croquettes that were only bechamel with no ham or anything else! Not hot. Calamari overdone and again not hot. The kale salad was excellent but everything else mediocre. Also wine pour was very skimpy. Service was friendly and fantastic but the food was a letdown. We were told it's a new menu— wish they'd return to the old one.
Great food and ambience, more on the non-vegetarian side. The patats Brava is a great dish for vegetarians, the steak is for sharing with 3 or more people, the grilled branzino is amazing. Great service and good selection of wine.

Unique tapas with incredible flavor. Spanish modern taste with deep Spain roots. Best restaurant we have been to so far in San Francisco.

Pretty much summarized in your questions. All was very good but, frankly, the food was good but not great.
The BEAUTY of the restaurant itself and the surroundings is exceptional. All of the wait staff were warm and welcoming from seating to leaving. The tapas were delicious! Even the mocktail was delicious! My date and I were not disappointed in any way!
Food was absolutely deeeeelish. Portions are definitely small so be sure to ask your served approx size of plate/# of pieces. We sat indoors as it was a bit chilly that day and the warmth from the kitchen made it very cozy! The patates bravas were so creamy and tasty. The squash dish was also a highlight! As was the crème brûlée! Enjoy!

Service is nice but far too fast. No time to eat a plate that all the meals were already delivered and then eaten cold despite asking to slow down.
We booked a table at 7:30pm but they kept us waiting until 8. Unacceptable. Although the food was good
Great service

Great food and solid service. Highlights are the datiles and the Jamon Iberico. The food is meant to be shared with fun tapas and oversized main courses. We will be going back soon.
What a gem of a place on the waterfront, with indoor and outdoor seating, lively music and superb service. And the food of course is par excellence!
