Michelle and I have been coming here for years. It had been a while and we've been craving the Lo Cocos special pizza. We substitute the anchovy with clams and it was delicious. I started with the hot fresh bread, followed by the Portillo salad, which was amazing. Then the pizza and finished it off with a delicious very light not too sweet tiramisu.

Lo Coco's is one of our favorite family dinner spots on Piedmont Ave. Everyone is so friendly and the food is fantastic. Simple menu but high quality. We especially love the pesto pasta and the margarita pizza. The inside is quite small and cozy so sometimes it can feel a bit cramped but it has never bothered us too much. It's a wonderful spot and I'm so glad we have it in rotation. Just know it can get busy!

Super small restaurant but very homey feel to it. Highly recommend the Pappardelle Porcini and their special pasta of the day. Came here on a Thursday night with family and there was a 30 min wait. We ordered family style so we can try out everything. The tables are very small so it felt a bit cramped since we had our own plates along with all the dishes on the table. Our server was very friendly and service was fast. My favorites from the dinner are the burrata, the pappardelle porcini with mushrooms, the ravioli special.

My dad chose this restaurant to celebrate my graduation as he had been to the sister restaurant in Berkeley and had a good experience. We arrived shortly after they opened and were greeted warmly and seated immediately. Our server gave us a thorough tour of the menu and recommended several dishes, several of which we ordered. Everything was delicious! The pasta was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the pizza was great, the meatballs were delicious with interesting ingredients, and the cannoli were the best cannoli that I have ever purchased in my life. It also turns out that the family is from the same part of Sicily that my family is! We had a great experience and a lovely meal and we can't wait to come back again!

An Italian place that meets my standard? Unbelievable ;-) Kidding aside, I landed here totally by chance. Had a friend from out of town visiting and he was craving pizza. I convinced him that he was craving Chinese, because I hadn't been to Holly's Mandarin down the street in forever. Little did I know that they are only doing takeout these days. Bummer! While we stood in front of Holly's and bemoaned our faith, a nice couple stopped and told us that we should try our luck at Lo Coco's. We had nothing to lose and took the chance. Good thing we did! Since it was Friday evening, there was a bit of a wait, but after about half an hour we were seated and promptly had some warm and wonderful bread and butter in front of us. And the evening continued to be filled with yummy food. We shared a salad with cranberries, blue cheese and an amazing vinaigrette (and more bread of course). Then I went with the linguine vongole and my friend chose a vegetarian pizza. Both was amazing. Since I'm not a big wine drinker, I tried their Italian "Coke Zero" - the brand is "Mole" and I really need to get my hands on this! My friend had a great red wine and told me that he would never be able to get a wine of that quality for that price down in Southern Cali. I took his word for it, he was happy... Service was fast and professional, knowledgeable and always friendly even in the most stressful environment. Kudoz! I will be back!

To start off with, we couldn't get enough of the on-the-house fluffy buttery bread. Joseph is the guru here, he gave us a fantastic run down of each menu item, from the pastas to the pizzas to the wine. We opted for the Spaghetti alle vongole and the good ole' cheese pizza, both were fantastic. The clams tasted of the ocean, the pasta was al dente and gently salted. The pizza was amazing, the bread base again was fantastic and not too charred. It was quite heavy and we could only finish half of it, but it tasted great the next day too. The sauce and cheese came together really nicely, it was as good as any pizza we had in italy even.

What a quaint little spot for amazing Sicilian food. If I could describe the ambiance, I would say it is cozy and small, consisting both indoor and outdoor seating. The flavors are spectacular. My friend introduced me to this location yesterday, but I feel like I will definitely be back again, even though I live a bit far from this restaurant. Apparently they have another location in Marin County and also Berkeley! The service was wonderful. The host was on top of it, making sure we received our orders correctly, are enjoying our meal, and constantly ensuring that our drinks are refilled. FYI They also sell wine and other goods, located on their back wall.

Lo Coco's is one of those restaurants that just wins your heart with its food and its service! Walking into Lo Coco's gives you the impression that this casual spot will serve you average, casual food, but this couldn't be farther from the truth. This restaurant, known for its pizza dough is so much more than a pizza joint... the pasta dishes are out of this world! I ordered the Combination pizza, since the pizza is frequently spoken about this place. My wife ordered the Eggplant Parmigiana and we also ordered the Tortelli with Pesto. The pizza definitely lived up to the hype, which normally is never the case. The crust had a great crispness to it and the toppings are high quality. My wife commented on how good her Eggplant Parmigiana was... the Tortelli with Pesto though was amazing!!! I will come back for that dish alone, it was just simply divine. As for service, Joseph was our server and he was just simply amazing. He added to the whole charm of the restaurant; since it was our first time, we spent the time going through the menu with us. This spot is not just a neighborhood gem, it's a Bay Area gem!

My friend and I stumbled on this place on Saturday night as we were trying to find a place to eat. The restaurant was packed so we waited outside for a few minutes while a table opened up. During that time, we were offered some drinks while we waited, and Joseph came out to walk us through the menu. The wait was really quick, and we were sat inside. While we were deciding on what we'd have, Joseph literally walked by with different dishes and told us what each of them was so we could see them before ordering. We over ordered. Like, a lot! But we wanted to try all the things and figured left overs were not the worst thing. *Burrata - delicious! *Half smoked salmon, half artichoke pizza - these were so good! Would absolutely recommend, and my favorite out of the two was the smoked salmon. *Eggplant parmesan - my friend loved this (I thought it was fine personally) *Linguine with clams - delicious *Tiramisu - really loved this *Cannoli - I preferred the tiramisu, though my friend loved this. Overall, absolutely loved the meal and would come back! The service was absolutely lovely on every level! Joseph was great, as were the other servers. Can't wait to come back and try more things!
