Had a Birthday Dinner. The receptionist who checked us in, wasnt the friendliest, however the Manager made up for it. The place is nice. Seems to be the place to celebrate your birthday, if you are in your late teens to early twenties. The Birthday Shout out is nice. Food & Drinks, are Subpar. Nothing to write home about. We went on a weekend. It gets very loud & crowded. All in All, I give it a 6 out of 10.. the Empanadas were good. Salmon was just okay. The drinks lack appeal. It's a been there and done that situation!!

I recently visited this restaurant to celebrate my fiancé’s birthday, and I had an amazing experience. The ambiance was fantastic, with a lively salsa band playing and guests dancing—it really set the mood for a fun evening. The food was delicious; I ordered the pernil, which was flavorful and tender. My only note is that the portion was quite large! Overall, I had a wonderful time and will definitely be returning.

We had a lovely time. The food was delicious. My Lamb chops chops were perfection. The yuca crab cakes were great. The service was great. If your into drinking wine take advantage of the general manager’s knowledge of wines as he is also a sommelier.

All around amazing time at Don Coqui Edgewater. Right on the Hudson River, you can enjoy beautiful views of NYC and NJ. The food, drinks, ambience and service are outstanding. Special thanks to the waiter staff, Marlo et al., managers Jay and Carlos for ensuring that my birthday celebration was a hit. For a great time, Don Coqui is the place.
