Coco Cubano

So many choices down this strip of restaurants to chose from. Fortunately, I think we picked the right one on this Saturday night.
We had the tapas selection of calamari which just melted in your mouth as an entrée. For main meal I had the Chicken Salad Tortilla Bowl. The flavours were awesome, melted in your mouth & was good value. Maybe just a little less dressing in the salad would be nice as it was too much. Nice all the same.
The service was great, fast & helpful. The atmosphere was pretty cool too, however where we were seated was a little squashy.
Would definitely return next time I am up from Melbourne.

The waiter put about $ 10 too much on my bill, because he didn’t know the specials on the menu. I left it to them, but at least I have to write a review, right? :)
Apart from that: the nachos were good, but not superb. The tapas could be a bit more for the price. Coffee was good. But what really satisfied: The churros with chocolate. They are really good!
Interior is good as well and make the place a bit more lively compared to the restaurants around.

Totally bummed out with this place. Not just once Or twice but 3 times! I’ve had a terrible experience with this place in which as long as I shall live I will avoid this place like the plague.
My first time at CC it was busy and we sat down and it took the staff 30 minutes before they decided to clean our dirty table. It then took another 20 minutes before they decided to come and take our order.
The second time was a similar experience I came with my girlfriends and the female staff were too busy to clean our table or even make eye contact with us because they kept talking about some «hot» guy instead of being concerned about their hungry customers.
Third and final time I went I didn’t even want to go but my friends insisted and we waited and waited to be served and by the time they came to take our order the kitchen shut so off to Maccas we went.
Pick up your game Coco Cubano!

I only stopped by for drinks here and I recommend the passion fruit mojito. It’s so refreshing especially for the warm summer nights and great service. Can’t wait to come back and try the food.

Milkshakes, tapas chilli cheese fries and awesome music!
That is what my night out with friends was and it was awesome!
As soon as we arrived we found the place packed with no tables left but the manager kindly packed up his paperwork and let us sit at the table he was at.
We all ordered tapas each to share which consisted of chicken bites (with an awesome spicy sauce), haloumi and capsicum, calamari and lastly chorizo and olives!
All the tapas come out in little awesome dishes, since coming here quite often we were surprised to find that the tapas no longer come with little pieces of tortilla to wrap your food up in.
A mistake in the kitchen found that we ended up with an extra tapas but they said it was on the house!
The tapas were very nice and we washed it down with milkshakes.
The caramel milkshake if I may say was absolutely amazing!
Yum!
Can’t wait to come back again. Might try the cocos located in Campbelltown next time :)

Great location with cute décor and a chilled vibe inside that is perfect for a casual catch up. The flip side to this cosy and intimate setting, however, is that on a busy evening you might find yourself seated outside… which doesn’t offer nearly the same experience.
Nevertheless, there were some delicious aromas coming from the kitchen… so I’m keen to try the menu in the future. Not really worth it for a simple coffee/​tea date (as I was on), but recommend taking a look if you want to indulge in something a bit more decadent (think rich foods and hot chocolates)!

Love the music and the décor. I always try to grab a winged lounge chair. Tried the Gourmet Mocha. Delicious. Note to self: download some of that music!!!

THE.WORST.EXPERIENCE.EVER. I am definitely not coming here ever again! EVER! As a Parramatta local, this isn’t a huge disappointment as there are several cafes and restaurants to distract the shit out of me from this place!
The food is not terrible, they have an amazing rose hot chocolate, but the service and the messiness of this place is disgusting! The café is quite popular on Friday and Saturday nights, and its packed! there’s not enough seats and the waiters don’t do a great job in turning their customers over. Staff members are sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oo SLOW. Me and my friend ordered churros and 2 hot chocolates. Our hot chocolates took probably nearly half an hour to get to us. Our churros came earlier and they started to get cold because we wanted to eat them with our hot chocolates.
The hot chocolates finally came and they had heated up our churros. The hot chocolates tasted horrible. It tasted like it was all milk and no hot chocolate. it was such a dodgy job. We were not happy. We weren’t happy with the quality of our service obviously. Our server constantly kept telling us it was coming soon, coming soon, but it didn’t come ‘soon’ as they mentioned.
We then requested to speak to the manager that night. She was absolutely rude. We wanted to get a refund on our hot chocolates for coming late and it tasted horrible. She told us that we weren’t going to get refunds and that we had to pay full price. She said that it was a busy night and that everyone else had to wait the same time as me and my friend did so it wasn’t just us. She said that they had also heated up the churros for us which ‘they don’t normally do, but we did it for you anyway’. She was just a rude person and clearly had no managerial or customer service skills.
i will definitely not go back there again!

I have been to Coco Cubano, I think, at every one of its locations in and around Sydney. Suburban rouse hill, in parramatta, in crows nest, you name it and I have been there!
But parra was my first so it gets the review :)
The atmosphere rocks at coco Cubano — old style antique looking, without being all ‘Victorian house’! Comfy chairs and in general, a very smiley bunch of servers and staff members!
Food? Fantastic. Every time I’ve been, I’ve tried to order something different (and being veg, I’m fast running out!) but the food has never disappointed me. Their cheesy fries and potato wedges are special favourites. Honourable mention goes to the generously topped, heated nachos.
But my favourite are their burgers. So big that holding them becomes a trial, it is worth it for the taste! :)

Best things: The atmosphere is such good fun! The European music and the pictures on the walls make you feel like you’ve travelled far to this awesome restaurant. The food is really tasty. I had the tapas of chorizos, hot chips, and calamari. All the food was served fresh and hot. I also had an iced-​coffee, and it was delicious.
Not-​so-​good things: The service, whilst friendly, does take some time. So don’t expect your tapas to arrive asap.

Hi, After moving to Parramatta I’m a regular visitor of Coco Cubano. I like the ambience and the culture very much. Most staff are very friendly too.
last week (sunday) i invited my friend for a nice cultural experience at Coco Cubano. It was such an embarrassment. The place was full of flies and the washroom was dirty. She walked out!
Today that is good friday morning at 11 am i visited the restaurant. The guys were friendly, but it took a long time to be served. Looks like they were understaffed, people were complaining. I paid for pancakes then was told .ran out of batter! Then compromised for veg Havana feast. The Havana feast was so tasteless, i didn’t eat much.
In short such a great place oozing with culture is going to dogs, being understaffed, unclean and tasteless food. Please save it.

We came here for an early dinner at 4p on a Friday. It wasn’t too crowded and our party of four was seated right away. The menu was a mix of tapas, sandwiches and burgers and a many more other food items. There’s also an extensive drinks lists w sangria, coffees and even cigars (in case you weren’t tipped off by the many photographs of people smoking).
For me, the Cuban pulled pork sandwich w chips (fries if you’re American) was very good. My wife had the salmon and salad which I tasted. The salmon was very soft, not at all firm as fresh salmon should be. She didn’t like it much either.
I would also recommend the red wine sangria (you can get it w white wine as well). The corn on the cob w chili wasn’t too bad.
The atmosphere was chill, the servers could have been more attentive (no waters refills offered) but I would come back again to try the chocolate drinks and tapas next time. Prices are pretty reasonable to boot.

So having been to the Crows Nest store some time ago when it first opened I was surprised to discover another one in Parramatta. The service was superior and although it was shortly before Christmas as usual they made me feel very welcome. Will be sure to check out some of the others.

Great atmosphere! Went to Coco for Tapas and Cocktails with some girlfriends the the servings were great. They had some really interesting cocktails too, raspberry mojito, yum!
The décor is so great, as is the art and photographs that adorn the walls. It really has funky cuban vibe.
It’s a great place to start off or finish a night, with it being more of a café than a restaurant. It isn’t terribly big so they really count on customers coming in for a quick coffee or dessert to help out with turnover.
Oh and it has the best coffee to be found in Parramatta!

Coco Cubano is an interesting place, the cuban theme is quite fun, with comfy armchairs, cuban pictures and music, and cigar boxes for table numbers!
The focus here is the coffee, cocktails and hot chocolate. A great selection of hot chocolates and cocktails make it a good place for post-​dinner drinks. There’s also a small food menu. I like their Cuban breakfast which has toast, smokey beans and bacon.
I’ve had a few problems with the service at the parramatta store, but nothing too serious. One of many places to get coffee/​hot chocolate in the eat street area, but the theme makes it a decent option.
