El Coco is a Mexican restaurant located on the Upper West Side that offers a unique build-your-own-bowl experience. The food and services have been praised as excellent, with standout dishes including fajitas, chicken and pulled pork empanadas, enchiladas, and guacamole. The taco selection is great, with nice flavor, and the fajitas come out sizzling and tasty. The drinks are refreshing, with a $5 Pina Colada that is lush and has a nice kick to it. The servers are friendly and eager to make the experience enjoyable, and the staff, including Imarol & Evelyn, are known for their great service, lively music, and vibrant atmosphere. The environment is peaceful and quiet, making it an ideal spot for conversations with friends without busting the budget. While some customers have found the drinks to be disappointing and the food to be horrible, others have had positive experiences, praising the well-made empanadas and flavorful tacos. The restaurant is also popular for celebrations, offering a sing song and a free shooter for birthdays. Prices are moderate and reasonable, making El Coco a recommended place for those seeking authentic Mexican cuisine and a fun atmosphere, despite occasional issues like QR code menus.
