I absolutely love this French restaurant, and I was thrilled to discover that Coquette is within walking distance of my home. Not having to deal with parking, traffic, or circling for a space is a luxury -- and being able to walk off dinner and dessert afterward might be the best part of all. I'm a total Francophile when it comes to French cuisine. From seafood towers to escargot, tartare, pâté, bone marrow, and soufflés -- you name it, I'm all in. And this restaurant does not disappoint. My very first visit was just for pastries, and I was blown away by how beautiful the restaurant is. It truly gives off all the vibes of Paris. If you haven't been, put it on your list -- and plan to eat your way through the city. This place captures that spirit beautifully right here in Charlotte. I've been here several times now and realized I failed to write a review earlier, so this is me catching up. I've worked my way through a good portion of the menu, and there are some clear standouts: * The Brussels (lardon) salad is outstanding -- rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced * The escargot in puff pastry is decadent and absolutely delicious * The mussels are consistently exquisite * The charcuterie and pâté selections are ideal for sharing * And the chicken confit -- oh my goodness -- sprinkled with flaky sea salt, shatteringly crisp on the outside, incredibly succulent on the inside. It's truly to die for. Don't be surprised if guests at the table start fighting over the last piece. One thing I especially appreciate is the value, even though the menu can appear pricey at first glance. This is a restaurant that really shines when you dine with a group. Sharing dishes family-style allows everyone to experience more of the menu without being stuck with just one entrée -- and without leaving with a mountain of leftovers. There's no fee for splitting dishes, and the staff are more than happy to accommodate sharing, which makes the experience feel welcoming and relaxed. That's exactly how I love to dine -- passing plates, tasting everything, and enjoying the meal together. The cocktail program is strong, and they have a full bar, plus an impressive dessert and espresso selection. The patisserie in the morning is a gem, and having a dedicated pastry chef really shows in the quality of the desserts. Favorites so far: * Apple Tarte Tatin * Crème brûlée * Canelés * And their birthday presentation -- a small plate with a candle -- is a lovely touch that makes celebrations feel special The restaurant itself is gorgeous, the waitstaff are knowledgeable and professional, and the service has been consistently excellent. I also appreciate the large outdoor patio -- I love dining al fresco, and the atmosphere here makes it easy to linger. Bottom line: This is one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte. It's consistent, beautiful, and delivers a true French dining experience without pretense. Knock on wood, I've never had a bad meal here. Be curious about food. Get out there and eat your way through Charlotte. Explore it. Bon appétit. read more

Best brunch in Charlotte, no doubt! Was blown away by the quality, flavor, and artistry of this meal! Seriously one of the best overall meals in my 8 years of living in Charlotte. Overall feel was very similar to the restaurants I've experienced in Paris and the waitstaff was very pleasant and never made us feel rushed (very undervalued in a dining experience). Any dudes out there looking to impress your wife, girlfriend, or your date, this is the best brunch spot you're going to find around. read more

Coquette - Croque Monsieur and Coquette Benedict - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This spot revived my faith in the restaurant scene in Charlotte. The food was excellent and the service was equal. Jackson did a good job, Kelly the hostess was charming (a rare quality in trendy spots). The food was lovely. Started with the croissant aux escargot. It was different but tasty and the foie gras tarte was complex, and silky. The cassoulet with duck was delicious, nouveau presentation but absolutely delicious. Currently the kitchen is featuring a chocolate soufflé! It was magical! read more

Lovely decor with a mix of modern and classic French style. The service is top notch. For brunch, we started with a regular croissant and an almond croissant. The fried chicken sandwich is an absolute must. Order the le burger with fried eggs and hollandaise sauce. It becomes more of a fork and knife burger, but it is delicious. The pommes frites are a perfect accompaniment to the sandwiches, as they are crispy, well seasoned and topped with dill. Ask for the garlic aioli, as they do not serve ketchup. We returned for dessert and ordered the beignets with raspberry sauce. Delicious! read more

Have been a couple times now and really enjoyed the food in the service on both visits. Before I get to the food, I'll call out that between the five different people I have visited with, quite a few cocktails were consumed and every one was top notch. The food is great too and with how the menu is constructed it's pretty easy to try quite a few things. I got the sweetbreads on the most recent visit and while my wife and her sister looked at me strangely once they figured out what those were all I can say is they were delicious. The French onion soup is interesting in that it's covered in a pastry versus a cheese top, but the cheese is there in melty chunks inside the soup, and the soup itself is quite tasty. It's interesting to see two French restaurants just a couple blocks from each other but on this night, both were packed to the gills so my best wishes go to both of them! read more

We came here for a group dinner. I had the salad with scallops. It is very good. All the dishes are very decadent. Servings are on the larger side. We shared desserts. Space is very nice. Good service. Indoor and outdoor seating. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

This was a really fun spot to have lunch! I've heard about Coquette of course, but I so rarely come Uptown to dine anymore. This place seems like a great addition to the area. I met a friend for a lunch and yap and I was immediately impressed by this place when I walked in. It's beautiful and so wonderfully appointed!! It wasn't very busy for a Saturday afternoon, which I was happy about. I was seated immediately and ordered the salade aux Choux de bruxelles et Lardons. (Felt fancy just typing that lol). It was recommended by my server and it did not disappoint. This was the perfect blending of greens and had a lovely fried egg in the middle. I really enjoyed my meal, I also ordered bread and butter service. Highly delicious lol. This is a really great spot for a date night or fancy ladies night. I can't wait to go back! read more

A perfect girls night dinner before a show at the Knight Theater. The space is gorgeous. We were warmly greeted and seated at a 2 person table and then our server Lanie C greeted us. We enjoyed French 75s and ordered charcuterie. The Brie like cheese is a must. Then I ordered the Brussel sprout salad and my friend ordered...clams. Honestly I don't do shell fish so i dk. Lanie answered all our questions about ingredients and checked in to make sure we were happy with everything. I wish we had time for desserts, but we had to get to the show, so now I just have an excuse to go back! read more

An honest review about Coquette... I really wanted to LOVE this spot, but it was only JUST OK! We made a reservation for Sunday brunch. Some of the tables that seat 2 people are very close to one another, and with our luck we were seated at one where we felt like we were dining with the other couple next to us...wasn't very comfortable. If the tables were spread apart a bit more then that would be nice. The restaurant itself is BEAUTIFULLY decorated though! Our waitress was not friendly at all. I mean ZERO personality, which is a shame for a spot like this. She made sure to tell us she was also looking after the bar as well. She took our drink order and then our food order, and we didn't see her again until the check came. When we asked her about pastries while ordering, it seemed like they were out of items like eclairs and croissants (on Easter Sunday, right when they opened at 11am, which was very odd). What French bistro is out of CROISSANTS??!! The French press coffee and fries were the 2 best menu items I had. The salads were all great too. The quiche was just ok, Cafe Monte definitely is the winner on that one so I would go there instead. Omelet was ok as well, nothing special and very plain. The duck fat fried chicken had this curry flavor to it which was odd but we ate it. Overall, this is a one and done for us. I would just come back for an order of fries and glass of wine if I was with a group that really wanted to go eat there (and that's a BIG maybe). La Belle Helene's Easter brunch was sooo much better last year, and Cafe Monte will still be out GO TO for a French breakfast / brunch! read more

I can't wait for Coquette's new location--this place was truly outstanding. From start to finish, it was a flawless dining experience. Every dish we ordered was perfectly executed and full of flavor. It's such a rare pleasure to have every course arrive at the table tasting exceptional. We had the escargot, salad, foie gras, and the beef bourguignon--and I'm serious when I say each one was absolutely delicious. Coquette really sets the bar high for the Charlotte dining scene--I haven't had a meal this complete and memorable in the city for as long as I can remember. To top it all off, the espresso martini was phenomenal! I would wholeheartedly recommend Coquette for anyone looking for a truly exceptional meal. read more

Set in the downtown of Charlotte coquette transports you to a Parisian cafe. The wait staff were very friendly and helpful. We only had an hour and our waitress attentive and never made us feel rushed. The pastry's are delicious freshly baked and warmed when ordered the chocolate croissant and hazelnut eclair were absolutely decadent! The salted chocolate GF cookie could've fooled me with how soft and moist it was. Our coffees were made to order and came timely with the pastry's The main entrees we ordered were varied as it was brunch. The herb omelette was fluffy and came with herb butter on top. Slightly more runny than I like about was very good. We also got the Le hamburger- toasted croissant with an egg on top of a perfectly cooked burger I got it with the hollandaise sauce on the side. Served with some of the best pomme frites and a garlic aioli. Definitely will make this a regular spot to visit when we visit Charlotte. read more

As much as this place appealed to me, I've been putting off going here...mainly because of the uptown parking situation. It's just hard to find free parking around this area, and the nearest parking garage costs about $15 on weekends. No matter, I finally chose this place for date night (or delayed V-Day dinner)...and as expected, the place was gorgeous...and a lot more spacious than the way it appeared in photos. We ordered a variety of items... Potato Beignets, Baby Green Beans, Coq au Vin Blanc, Duck Fat Fried Chicken, Almond Croissant, Creme Brulee. Well, I was quite surprised...firstly, of how generous the portions were...and also surprised how absolutely delicious they ALL were!! They were all beautifully presented too. I even loved the cocktail, "Black Rose"....sooo good! My husband and I agreed that we made the right choice for V-Day dinner. Service was great as well. We were seated promptly (via Open Table RSVP) in a nice, big table...and our waitress was very friendly and attentive. So was the management. Everything was on point...which I found especially impressive, since they were so busy on this night. I even loved the overhead music...so much so I hoped it was cranked up a bit more. Everything was so perfectly French and fabulous! Now that I know, I hope to return to try more things on their menu. Maybe for lunch or brunch next time? read more

I pass the restaurant almost daily heading to work. We grabbed a reservation for Saturday to give it a try. So about the reservation...there is a no show fee authorization held on your credit card just in case you flake, so keep that in mind. Read the reservation conditions carefully. We arrived right on time for our reservation, we were greeted with a smile and a French welcoming. The interior is beautifully decorated, comfortable, and spacious. Once seated we poured over the menu and we received great recommendations from our waitress, Laura. We decided to order a few dishes and share amongst the two of us. We started with oysters and champagne, followed by Saumon Fumé Benedict and Tarte à la Tomate et Oignons, and we ended with French toast. Everything was great but the Tarte à la Tomate et Oignons stole the show. The texture and the flavors...chef's kiss! This was a very solid brunch option, I highly recommend this restaurant. I look forward to trying the dinner menu. read more

I had the macaroons a box of six and there were some of the best I've had even compared to the ones in France the service was very nice and I had a salad with blue cheese and and smoked salmon. Everything was fresh and delicious. It was very cutely decorated inside and there was also sitting outside. I will definitely go back there again. read more

This was my first visit to Coquette, and all I can say is WOW! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely decadent. Our server, Roger, was a true professional--attentive without hovering, and very knowledgeable about the menu. The food was phenomenal. I ordered the Sole, and my companion had the Coq au Vin--both were exceptional. For dessert, I had the Sabayon Cream paired with an Espresso, and honestly, words don't do it justice. Just incredible. The ambiance is spot-on--elegant yet relaxed. It's perfect for a date night or a small group gathering. Not overly loud, and they seem to handle midweek groups with ease. If you have the chance to dine here, do it. Highly recommend! read more

Lovey restaurant with beautiful decor and large outside dining area. Attentive Friendly staff. Overall the food was ok good enough disappointed by the small serving presentation of the foie gras, the main reason I went to the restaurant. There was barely any marrow and I know you don't know until you cut it open and cook but once you do you shouldn't send it with barely 1 spoonful of marrow. The oysters were tasty and the fried chicken cooked well. read more

Thursday lunch at 1pm When you're from nyc , it's bad habit to compare everything to nyc but I'll do it anyway . Think the grand boucherie but on a smaller scale ( charlotte ). The main difference one of the managers is actually french . Winner - charcuterie and cheese board - Comte and the flambee goat cheese , the truffle salami ( my fave ) and the pepperoni like charcuterie - great value ( yes consider to nyc ). Great paired with a glass of blanc de blanc . For a lunch main , I made the mistake of getting a chicken paillard ( not made the usual way , it's more like just plain chicken ), it should be revisited and improved . My client / friend had the fish of the day which she enjoyed . The menu is french typical heavy ( tartines , salads , coq au vin, burger and steak frites ) which I love ! The dessert - crème brûlée was Heavenly . Wines - gamay , Riesling ( too sweet for my taste despite being told it's not ) and Sauvignon blanc . The ambiance is nouveau french but it works . read more

Coquette was nice. The food was good. I ordered a mushroom tart. it was a lively dinner crowd when went and we were seated promptly.

So I always hate places that are in uptown because I hate the parking situation. Parking is never free so either find something on the street or park in the parking deck. This place is cute. The decor is so pretty. Definitely reminds me of Paris. The vibe is cool and very prestige I would say. The service is good. Very nice people and service. The food was good, the drink was good as well. Such a cute spot. Price is what you pay for that's for sure. read more

We took my mother-in-law to this because she likes French things (as do I) and it was very nice. The decor is elegant and charming and you can pretend that you stepped into a Paris restaurant. I think that reservations are recommended although we didn't make any but they were gracious enough to seat us. The parking is difficult as it was in the street, so we parked at a parking garage. It was pricy though but maybe to be expected given the ambiance and food and the service was a bit slow. Otherwise, both the service and food were great. We ordered bread and butter as appetizers and while it was good I wish the bread was a larger portion. I do like that they had mocktails and the one I ordered was delicious. We ordered coq au vin and the mushroom tart and they were both good, with the chicken being very tender. We also ordered the mini-dessert trio to share and they were all delicious, especially the almond apricot dessert. Great place for a fancy night out or a celebration. read more

Visited Coquette after a lovely experience with its nearby sibling Mariposa. Wow. Came in with two colleagues; we had last all met in Paris, which is why I chose this spot which has a reputation for being authentic. And was it ever (minus the snooty service one might get in Paris -- servers here were charming, attentive, knowlegable...and POLITE!). What struck us most was the authenticity in virtually every detail -- all on strategy with the restaurant's name and definition (look it up!). The room feels like you could be at a bistro in Paris (down to the patisserie, the bar, and even the servers' outfits). One of my colleagues, upon looking at the setting and the color palette, said "I feel like I've walked into a Monet." Lovely wine list by the glass and by the bottle. Variety of varietals in both blanc and rouge, with a nice list of digestifs as well. The menu is just...spot...on. We opened with a four item charcuterie board (there are eight things from which to select -- three meats and five cheeses, all appropriately French. The tomato onion tatine -- served with goat cheese ICE CREAM for crying out loud -- was unique and absolutely outstanding. Nice selection of other tartines including the expected (champignons/mushrooms) to the controversial (foie gras). By the time we had finished those, our tummies were well sated, so we decided to split a salad and an entree. The brussels sprout salad came highly recommended from our outstanding (even though it was only his second night on the job) server and from the manager, who visited us as one would hope/expect. It was excellent. List of entrees was as one might expect in a bistro: boeuf bourguignon, moules, a couple of fish entrees, coq au vin...we went for the lamb chops because (1) they looked really good and (2) were easy to share. They, too, were wonderfully spiced and cooked spot on to temperature. Smattering of pastries for dessert...but the REAL desserts were awfully tempting...wish we'd saved room. Throughout, a really nice, authentic taste of Paris -- but with NC hospitality. Only minor beef was the bright lighting. These aging eyes appreciated it; the room could be fine with about 30% less...and feel even MORE authentic. Can't say enough good things here, and this comes on the heels of a wonderful experience at one of their other restaurants. Looking forward to returning to both. read more

Beautiful dinner spot in Uptown! The food was fabulous. We had the truffle salami and a few cheeses to start which were very delicious. Then we tried the Coquille St. Jacques Gratinée--absolutely fabulous and oh so French. For our entrees we had the Moorish Lamb Chops and the Trout. Both were very flavorful, and we had plenty to take home! We had dessert as well--the Crème Brûlée and the Chocolate Bouchon. Delicious! Overall the food and drinks were excellent. Food was out quick and hot, and our server was very friendly and attentive. My only qualm is the distance between the chairs and tables. I get they might be pushing everyone close together in an effort to make the place feel like a traditional French restaurant or create an intimate atmosphere, but it was TOO intimate for me. It was very difficult to scoot away from the table to get up from my chair. We kept bumping into the people behind us! I didn't love that those sitting next to us could basically hear our conversation the entire time. If you don't mind the closeness of the tables, this is a really great place! read more

Coquette is pure Parisian energy-impeccably decorated, effortlessly chic, and just a touch standoffish, as any true French-inspired spot should be. The food? Fantastic. But fair warning: they will run out of certain dishes early, so if you're eyeing something specific, get there ASAP. read more

I had a quick bite before going to a Charlotte FC game. This is a nice place with good atmosphere and nice decor. Very attentive and efficient service. However food is just okay. Nothing out of the ordinary. I ordered a tartine, it had good flavor but was overcooked and dry, the potato beignets lacked flavor and the alioli sauce for the fries need some work. Overall is a nice place to spend a good time and have a quick bite, but food needs some improvement. read more

Was not really impressed to be honest. Everything was just okay. For starters, that tiny breadcrumb of bread was $6. Don't get me wrong, it tasted great, but was it worth $6? Absolutely not! The entrees themselves were not very filling. While there was very memorable flavor in the mussels, it was not enough to captivate me. I really appreciated the bread that came with it, however, it was not enough to soak up the sauce. There were some options to order different things on the side, but none of them seemed to complement the dish. Also, the dish was already $34 on its own. As for the chicken, it was mediocre. Again, not very filling. Not worth the money in my opinion. read more

My husband and I had a wonderful brunch at Coquette. We tried the steak sandwich, the oeufs de cocette, and an apple cinnamon pastry. The food was delicious, clearly fresh, and larger portions than I was expecting (in a good way)! I love the French countryside-inspired interior. It's bright, sleek, and upscale. Our server did not seem to know much about the menu, but she was friendly and we did not have to wait long for anything. read more

Came here for a business lunch. We got oysters to share with the table along with oysters. Also got the steak frites as my main. Needed some salt and pepper and maybe a little extra seasoning from my liking but it wasn't the worst I had. Please note this account does not have ketchup so I got a garlic aioli which felt light on the garlic to go with my fries. There were some other menu items that jumped at me but nothing that made me feel like I absolutely have to return. I will say, aesthetically, it takes you to a nice Parisian cafe. read more

I came here to celebrate an anniversary and I was happy to have tried Coquette. Let's start with the most important topic, parking. Parking in the garage that is attached to the building. 400S Tryon is where it's at. Coquette will "validate" the parking, but after the validation instead of paying like $20 or $11 (on weekends), you'll pay $5 which isn't too bad. The parking lot is part of the same building, so if you're parking in a different building, it's the wrong parking lot! Onto the food - So we got the croissant escargot bites, pan seared foie gras, halibut, mussels, side of pomme frites, and for dessert an apple tart. The standout dishes for me was the halibut, I just wished there was more! The sauce was great, and it was expected but the fish itself was great. The appetizers I think was even better than the main, but the problem with it was that there wasn't enough! At 3 bites each, you're getting a taste of it and after each bite you just wanted more. The flavors of the appetizers were great. I mean, foie gras is always good. For dessert we got the apple tart. It was alright, nothing crazy or special. The service was alright, I think we had the bartender as a server so they seemed like they were pulled both ways. Also, due to the open space and close proximity of other tables, it could get pretty loud. Decoration wise, it does give you the French vibes that's for sure. If you're looking for an experience, I would recommend Coquette. It's something different (French food in Charlotte is hard to come by) and the food experience is great. read more

Let me start by saying that although I loved all the items I had a Coquette there was one thing in particular that was so delicious that I will come back again and again just to get it. What is this magical item you may ask? It is the Chevre Brulee! Absolutely amazing!! I could eat this alone or on top of almost anything. All the other items on the charcuterie board were wonderful as well. The duck fat chicken was a nice entree with a large portion size. Drinks and service also excellent and the decor cute and comfortable. Big shout out to Coquette on my new favorite item on a menu anywhere in town! The cheese option of Chevre Brulee on the Charcuterie and Fromage section is absolutely magical. If you like cheese this is something you cannot miss. read more

Food we got: Croissants aux Escargots (chartreuse butter, seaweed, dill) - These were tiny escargot croissants with a lot of butter; you get 3 per order. Pan-Seared Foie Gras (crostini with compote of lingonberry & shallots) - I loved the flavors of this; there were 3 per order. Moules Marinières (mussels with white wine, shallots, garlic, butter cream, fennel & garlic streusel) - I enjoyed this a lot. I would recommend to get an order of bread to soak up the broth. Apple Tarte Tatin (caramelized apples, puff pastry, cinnamon & star anise ice cream , caramel) - I was surprised to see this on the menu in the middle of a hot summer. Spiced ice cream and apples are generally more autumn flavors. However, I am glad this was on the menu. The star anise and cinnamon really stand out and balanced the sweet caramel apples well. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner here. However, the hors d'oeuvres were pricey for what we got, and table bread should never be an extra cost. Not in a French restaurant. The interior is very pretty, loved the chairs and the color scheme. Staff was friendly; not the most attentive but our needs we met. read more

Coquette in Uptown Charlotte delivered an enjoyable lunch experience today, with attentive and friendly service that made us feel warmly welcomed. Parking is validated if you use the correct garage, which is always a plus. We started with two stunning tarts: the Tarte Aux Champignons (Mushroom Tart), featuring Raclette Fondue, Coquette Vinaigrette, and Truffle Oil, and the Tarte à la Tomate et Oignons (Caramelized Tomato & Onion Tart) topped with Chevre Goat Cheese Ice Cream. Both were beautifully balanced, rich in flavor, and substantial enough to double as a light entrée. For my main course, I opted for the Duck Fat Fried Chicken Sandwich served on a Brioche Bun with Honey-Tarragon Aioli and spicy pickles. The tarragon aioli's aroma was divine, and the chicken was perfectly crispy and moist. Unfortunately, the bun became soggy, so I set it aside and enjoyed the chicken and pickles on their own. The accompanying fries were perfection--crispy, well-seasoned, and thoroughly satisfying. One of my dining companions chose the Filet Mignon Steak Frites, cooked medium. While the presentation was appealing, they found it under-seasoned and underwhelming. My other companion ordered the pan-seared mahi-mahi (the fish of the day), served atop mashed potatoes with a Balsamic & Red Wine Reduction, which they enjoyed. I was a bit disappointed not to see French Onion Soup on the menu, especially since Coquette's French-inspired setting seemed like the perfect place for it. However, our meal ended on a high note when the manager surprised us with desserts to celebrate a couple of birthdays. We savored the Crème Brûlée, Apple Tarte Tatin, and Chocolate Bouchon, all delightful treats. To top it off, I indulged in a French Hot Chocolate--thick, rich, creamy, and possibly the best in Charlotte. It was a luxurious finish to the meal. While the experience was predominantly positive, with a few hiccups in execution, I'm eager to return and explore their dinner menu. Coquette shows promise as a sophisticated spot for French cuisine in Uptown. read more

Food was pretty dry and for kids and adults who order meaty items, they do not serve ketchup because "it isn't French"

I can't say enough wonderful things about this place. We popped in for lunch mid-week and the place was packed. The ambiance was beautiful and the staff were delightful. We had the mushrooms with crusted French bread for a starter and it was one of the most flavorful dishes I've had in a long time. I had the mussels with a side of frites and my husband had the steak frites, both of which were delicious and very rich. I could've used another loaf of bread to soak up the sauces. The owner stopped by to see how our food was and was very friendly and engaging. He even topped off our wines because he found out we were celebrating a birthday. We then had lemon tarte and two glasses of champagne for dessert which was a great end to a perfect meal. I will definitely be returning! read more

Probably the best Brussel dish I've ever had. We all loved it and thought it was delicious and unique. I had an iced latte - also very good and the mussels.
