A Delightful Journey from Start to Sweet Finish

Cocody’s fine dining experience takes you on a delectable culinary journey. Begin your evening with one of our exquisite appetizers, like the indulgent Maine Lobster Bisque, served with a half lobster in an emulsion and crowned with delicate saffron tuiles.

For those who enjoy exploring flavors together, Cocody’s signature Lolly’s are the perfect choice for starters. These elevated appetizers inspired by French cuisine deliver an explosion of flavors in perfectly portioned bites:

Fresh Tuna: Topped with a sweet and sour vinaigrette, complemented by salmon roe on a mini baguette with microgreens for a refreshing finish.

Smoked Duck Breast: Paired with juicy plums and a bright orange confit, served atop a mini baguette with fresh microgreens.

For the main course, you can choose a delicious fish entrée, like the Chilean Sea Bass, served with brown butter romanesco and creamy jasmine rice in a cilantro velouté sauce. But if you’re in the mood for a sophisticated meat entrée, the Beef Tenderloin served with green pepper cognac sauce, celery root purée, and Cocody potatoes, is an expression of classic French techniques with contemporary flair.

Complete your fine dining experience with one of our artfully crafted desserts. The Valrhona Chocolate Royal served warm with Bailey’s ice cream and orange chocolate tuile, is the absolute grand finale of your evening.
