Yes please. I didn’t expect much as I wandered into this unassuming strip mall diner. With acronyms like ATW (all the way) to select which condiments you want, to the parking lot chickens, I didn’t expect much. But the sandwiches. OMG. The ATW Cuban was a heavenly triumph. The perfect amount of mayo sauce and the crunchy outside of the roll cooked panini style and they had me. Fountain drinks were nice but the glass bottles coke was an added bonus. The staff was friendly and sheepishly asked if I would like some habanero hot sauce, delivering a modest amount so as to not scorch my face and leave me wondering if I’d been damned to hell. “Should I have it” I asked? Yes please.

Cute little place, good food, they add a little twist on the cuban sandwiches (the usual ones are more dry) they're a little more like a sub with delicious fresh veggies and some sauce and they are seriously to die for if you are hungry and looking for a satiating lunch. I'm a personal fanatic for jalapeño poppers and these ones were delicious as well.

Food was good. The Cuban Sandwich was real good. The fried plantains were really good. The yellow rice seemed dry and not a lot of flavor. I think that is how they are supposed to be though. Just a preference for me I like a lot of flavor and my rice to not be so dry. I would eat here again.
I love how the locals know the owner and vice versa. We were just passing through for vacation. I would recommend stopping here to eat.
When we first came in we didn’t know if we were supposed to sit down and wait to be waited on or order at front-since we were dining in. It did seem like if you are dining in, you sit down first.

Best breakfast I've had in the keys so far. Great prices. Large serving sizes. Very nice staff. There's literally 2 lady's running the whole place, one that runs the orders in front and a nice little old lady cooking in the back. If there's a lot of people in there there is a little wait but it's really not that bad, just be patient and if it's busy don't come in there expecting fast food. Food was amazing, I am stuffed.

Great Cuban/South American Restaurant. We had their huevos rancheros for breakfast which is different from the Mexican variety. They take a tortilla and layer it with a fresh, slightly runny, egg and add salsa while topping it with black beans! Really good. Then, have a coffee con leche with light sugar and you are in heaven. The Cuban coffee con leche is my love. I just found out today that you can order a dark coffee con leche and get less milk. 83° high today and 73° low. The same for 2 weeks!!!

'Family Owned local's Keys diner since 1969 Coco's offers affordable delicious breakfast lunch and dinners. Everything is delicious and simple, people are very nice also bilingual. I been eating here since the 90's and of my favorites are Huevos Ranchero or steak and eggs, Pancakes, Roast Pork Sandwich or the Roast Pork Dinner with black beans yellow rice, avocado salad and fried plantains...good burgers also and very reasonable prices. Coffee con Leches are a must if you love good coffee too. Thank you Coco and Mercedes for all that you do! A BIG Pine Key TRADITION WITH A Smile.

***Top cuban sandwich*** We ordered Cuban mix sandwiches and one chicken empanada. Everything was delicious. The pork flavor was amazing. We met the owners, Estefany and Pricilla. Great ladies. Estefany was amazing and informative. Pricilla was attentive to the specifics of our order. Though the plaza looks older outside, Coco's Kitchen is updated inside.

Nice place, above average food. It's not really a "Cuban" place apart from handful of items. Cooking style is not cuban. That said the food is good, and the place is very clean. You can get a solid meal here.

I wanted to try Cuban food. I was very pleased with my food choices. I got Tinga chicken special, sauteed chicken with plaintains and Cuban mixed sandwich. Price was great and food was delicious.
There is plenty of space for dine in.
I forgot the names of the girls in the front but they were all very friendly and helpful. Menu is very easy.

Great little cafe/dinner to stop in and grab something to eat. Food is good, correct for the price. Key Lime Pie was tasty as well!
Though I was a bit disappointed that there was Mayo on my sandwich when it wasn’t disclosed on the menu.

My wife both had the fish sandwich and the service was very slow as advertised and food was very mediocre. Probably will not eat there again. Price was only $7 so prices are reasonable, especially for the Keys.

Starving after Key West.... My husband and I were driving through the area on the way to Key Largo and we stopped here as there are not a ton of options outside of the pricier Key West. This place is beloved by the locals and the proprietor works her tail off. However, because she is doing it all, the menu can be extremely limited and service can take a while. I got the shrimp and they were seriously, the biggest shrimp I've ever had and they were well prepared. The plantains were a little too black, gummy and oily though. 15 bean soup was very good. Husband enjoyed his Cuban. Was hoping to have the chicken fricassee, but that is only available on a certain night. Prices are certainly right for those on a budget.

Good Food at a Good Price With a Rosie Floor Show. Mom & Pop type cafe with good food at great prices. We both were hungry for a good burger for lunch and we found one. Recommended to us by a local who eats there often. We sat at the bar waiting for our burgers (be prepared to wait) and got the opportunity to watch Rosie in action. She is an artist with tongs...never touched any of the food with her hands. As we watched the food orders come out of the small kitchen, she served, operated the register, cleaned tables, took orders, and still managed to visit with her customers. I swear her feet never touched the ground. Some might think she is terse and gruff, but she is just damned busy. We will definately be back before we leave the Keys.<br/><br/>We did go back and had the huevos rancheros for breakfast and it was wonderful...eggs cooked to order over really good black beans.

Prepared to Order is Always Good. This little gem in Big Pine Key is consistently good. Breakfast is my favorite. Due to the restaurant's size, you do have to wait a bit to order and then get your food, but if it's fresh, I'm in. It appears Coco's is a Mom & Mom operation who really know good Cuban food. Prices are some of the best in the Keys.

Wonderful food, generous portions, and a very pleasant hardworking staff of two. Roast pork with lime, onions, blacbeans and rice was delicious! Homemade key lime pie (a bit lighter "mousse style" filling) was better than any I've had in the Keys.
