Although I have no business relationship with this restaurant, our company do send guests to enjoy the beach front ambience. I was surprised to read the adverse comments and decided to revisit myself. I enjoyed a first class tenderloin steak cooked as I requested. I was not too impressed with the mushroom sauce - too thick for my taste. The... More

Nice Thai, Asian, and European mix of food right by the waves. Jazz is cool, relaxing, and *classy.* Great place for a date - impressionable types will think "Holy smokes has my date got taste!". I recommend to everyone who asks me. Sure it's a little pricey, though not unreasonably so at all, and even though you can save money... More

Been here many times in the past because of the beachfront location which is always nice in the evening. It has generally been pretty average for quality but my recent experience was poor. Service was fine as usual when greeted and sat down and drinks provided quickly. Food, however, was very poor with undercooked steak which was a poor quality... More

Sitting right on the beach, Coco 51 offers excellent food at reasonable prices--one of the most picturesque places I've ever eaten. We had a party of 6 and everyone was happy and comfortable, satisfied with their food and their experience. The only disappointment was we were on the corner, near to a channel running onto the beach and there was... More

Recommended to this restaurant by our hotel and had a lovely night. We had an excellent seafood dinner with beautiful, fresh fish. They also do western dishes if you prefer and are child friendly. It was lovely eating so close to the beach and different from the busy restaurants in town. Service was excellent and we'll certainly go back.

Popular restaurant, well located on the beach. I feel this place is somewhat resting on it's laurels of former glory. It was all just OK but not terrific. It is a Thai restaurant pretending to be a european restaurant. I had the Tuna Steak which came with mash potato. I expected the mash to be like a proper restaurant puree... More

We are naturally very disappointed with the criticisms laid out here. Regarding the mashed potato being a "dry scoop", I find this surprising indeed, as I often think our mashed potato is too creamy, and, in my experience, has never been dry. We do prepare in the puree style. The cold tuna steak; this is also surprising to read. If... More
