I stopped in to get food for my husband, who was at the SoCo Expo at the soccer field next door. The tacos were surprisingly good. So we stopped by the second day to get more food. The ceviche was fresh and tasty. The waitress was friendly.

Ive been to this place for couple of times. I love thier caldo and tacos. Generally the items in the menu are quite pricey. The food is “good”. Abd ambiance is also nice specially when you here when your telenova is showing. Would come back again to try another dish.

It’s a good spot for sea food. The staff is friendly and the drinks are good. The sea food is great. I tried their enpapelado plate and it was great. Very tasty, I loved it. They do have $1 tacos on I believe Tuesday. The tacos are small because they are a dollar but they are alright. Not the best but still good. However the chicharon taco was all fat and it was under cooked. Its pork so thats horrible. Other than that I would definitely check this place out.

This plate of vegan tacos hit the spot. They were simple and delicious with great beans and rice and fresh avocado and lime. They were very friendly and the atmosphere is vibrant.

A standout in the sea of “Meh”ican
Depending on where you are, there could be a sea of Mexican, chicken, or American fare restaurants…quite frequently inhabiting the same city block. Usually these places barely get by, shoveling out the lowest quality food you can imagine for dirt cheap prices for their splintered customer base.
Los Cocos proves themselves above that level with their quaint establishment in Melrose Park. As I walk in I see that the place is pretty empty during lunch hour on a Saturday. Within a minute of me sitting down at a table a waitress promptly rushes over with a menu. I have a hunger for seafood so I pretty quickly settle for the $33 “Mariscada” platter which consists of crab legs, langostinos, tilapia, etc. Since I knew it might be awhile I also ordered a Burrito de Chile Relleno or stuffed pepper burrito.
The staff was pretty friendly, as the lunch crowd came in they scurried about cleaning tables and trying to help patrons. My burrito was ready in about 5-10 minutes, after the waitress dropped it off she didn’t really check on me anymore even though it was clear the lime Jarrito I started off with was done. Even after coming to pick up empty plate for the burrito, no attention was giving to drinks which was kind of odd.
The burrito itself was really tasty. This place sure knows how to make them. The flour tortilla was cooked perfectly as well as the rice and beans. The beans were actually a thin layer at the ends of the burrito while the burrito had seasoned rice as the filler. Much to my surprise the re-fried beans actually tasted like they were freshly made and didn’t come from a can which was a nice cherry on top.
Now on to the deluxe supreme dream…the Mariscada. It actually took a shorter time than I thought it would, but it didn’t disappoint! I think they realized that $33 was way too much for what was offered as well so they threw in an extra dish of spicy oysters & shrimp for free. The breaded shrimp and tilapia were fantastic. Everything was hell seasoned with the right amount of salt to bring out the flavor. My gripes would be the langostino actually tasted like vomit and the crab salad mixes were sub-par. I tried adding some lime, but it didn’t help the flavor for those bad dishes. The salad you can tell was fresh.
The spicy shrimp and oysters were…oh my god levels spicy. They could’ve warned me it would be like that especially since it was on the house. It was good nonetheless though, with the shrimp and oysters perfectly cooked and balancing out the spicy sauce.
Overall I’d visit this place again to try out more dishes. The crab salad recipe needs some work, but the overall menu is tasty and the chef definitely tries to put effort into the cooking here.

I had my daughters baptism/birthday party at this location and let me tell you, the service was absolutely amazing. The staff was on point, catering to our needs, helping distribute the cake, cleaning as things got messy (since we had a lot of kids). The food was great, providing plenty for everyone and then some, leaving leftovers to take home. The DJ, although accustomed to his weekly atmosphere more than accommodated our music requests for dancing and karaoke. I worked for many years in the food industry and I can honestly say that the hospitality and customer service was 5 star. Thank you for everything Los Cocos! Gracias por su buen servicio y todo lo que hicieron para tener esta buena memoria con mi familia, y especialmente, con mi hija.
