Bistro Cocorico — Restaurant in Copenhagen Municipality

Stepping into Bistro Cocorico on Østerbro, I was immediately embraced by a cozy atmosphere blending warmth with a subtle New York charm. The evening unfolded with the guidance of a welcoming waitress, offering service that was consistently excellent, striking a balance between attentiveness and subtlety.

The starter presented a hearty mushroom soup with a deep flavor, though slightly on the heavy side. The tartare impressed with its taste and elegant presentation, though the texture lacked the desired bite. Accompanied by a delightful dressing, it set a promising tone.

A Provence rosé accompanied the meal, delivering a fruity and pleasant experience that complemented our culinary journey perfectly.

For the main course, Boef bearnaise showcased tender meat and a delicious glaze, yet the bearnaise sauce fell slightly short being too cold. While the fries lacked character, the beans stole the spotlight with their exquisite flavor.

Dessert, featuring Morbier, soft cheese, and blue cheese, missed a crystal cheese but compensated with delicious varieties and thoughtful accompaniments.

In summary, Bistro Cocorico offers an enjoyable experience. The atmosphere and service enchant, though some dishes have minor shortcomings. I rate it 4/5 and highly recommend it to those seeking a night of gastronomic exploration in charming surroundings....

1/5 stars – Extremely disappointing experience

We ordered two strip loin steaks – one medium rare and one medium. What we got instead were two very rare steaks, raw in the middle. After politely raising the issue, we spoke with the chef and were promised new ones.

To our surprise, they reused one of the original steaks, and both came back extremely well done – completely overcooked and dry. This was not only unprofessional but felt careless and disrespectful to us as customers.

What was supposed to be a nice dinner turned into a frustrating and disappointing evening. Definitely not coming back, and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone expecting quality or...

Absolutely fantastic experience! Even though there was a bit of the delay in the beginning, as it was a busy night with only one server, we can easily say that it was one of the best meals we had in a very long time. I have been trying the Early-bird offers for a couple of years now, as it is a good way to explore restaurants you wouldn't normally visit, and this was easily the best meal in Copenhagen. The tartar was out of this world, both our mains were absolutely delicious (salmon and veal steak) and the creme brule also very tasty. And most importantly, the portions were big enough to get us full. Simple food but so tasty! We are definitely...
