Came here, there is street metered parking available. 9-9 is paid parking. After 9 it's free if I'm not mistaken. Came through the main doors, into a nice entrance with a nice illuminated chandelier and mood lighting to greet you. I wait and was directed in. The aesthetic of the main entrance, to the walk way passing the first bar and restaurant area is nice. But once you get into the dance floor you loose a little bit of it. Since it's usually dark there you don't notice it. But when you get to the second bar area, you pick it back up in my opinion. I have been here a few times before the food isn't bad, portion sizes are descent and the drinks are typically good. Every thing even before the pandemic and especially now is just a little over priced in my opinion for what you get. I did have drink specials and when that was over they went to a happy-hour, cash only bar without really any notice or heads up which I didn't like. Because I didn't have cash. They do have an ATM on the premise from what I was told. I might come back here with a group again, but not by myself. Especially there are several cheaper options in whiteplains and neighboring towns like portchester. read more

I have been here several times when it was formally known as Don coqui. It's same owners but remodeled and new name. I guess no longer part of a franchise and Rene owns it outright. Good for him. I have NEVER had a bad experience here. The food is delicious. The atmosphere is a happy one. Rene and his mom are very courteous and always on the floor making sure you have a good experience. Im telling you you have to come out here. Try a buffet style spanish brunch and also come up for a friday or Saturday night of Fun. Im sure you will enjoy it. FYI they have night club on the other side so come for dinner stay for the party! read more

Had a good time at Don Coqui the other night. While I didn't dine in, I did enjoy the bar and club section. The DJ played great music and the space wasn't overly crowded which I appreciated. Staff also had good customer service. read more

Food was free great, definitely overpriced however. My dish was amazing and would get it again, our waiter was nice and friendly however the vibes were a little weird with various women walking through the dining room offering $5 and pouring it in people mouth. The club itself had a good vibe but overall not the best. read more

I booked a last minute reservation here for a large party here recently & the staff were very kind & accommodating! I believe this is both a bar & restaurant so there was a DJ playing music throughout the duration of our dinner. My party & I had a pre-fixed menu for our dinner & paid about $55 or so for our meal. The meal included 2 pitchers of soda, 2 plates of appetizers, one entree per person, & a dessert platter. The appetizers were subpar & not really out of this world, same thing with my entree which was the half chicken with mashed potatoes, & the dessert platter consisted of 6 1/4 cut pieces of a variety of cheesecake; needless to say that the food was underwhelming. The pre-fixed menu in my opinion is not worth the price considering the portion size & taste of the options, but the staff treated us well & the restaurant space was put together nicely. Would only return to possibly try something else on the menu & give it another shot. read more

I went for My Son's Birthday.The food and service was excellent. Maria was the Best. Love this place.

Came to Don Coqui for a friends birthday in October 2022 and was really excited for the experience. Unfortunately, that excitement wore off very quickly. We had a party of 16 people at dinner, we all ordered drinks and food-- it took OVER AN HOUR to get our food out to us. Members from the party opted to LEAVE because of this wait while others left as soon as the food came out. I completely understand it may have been a busy night but waiting over an hour for food is ludicrous. I've been to very busy restaurants but have never experienced something like this. Not to mention, the staff knew it was a birthday celebration and they did not sing happy birthday to our friend who was VERY upset at the service that was being provided. That was a tough moment when we saw others around us getting the happy birthday treatment and she was practically ignored. After we paid well over $1K for the dinner, I asked to speak to the manager about our grievances. I can't remember his name but he was already on the defensive when I started speaking and wouldn't let me talk at first. He THOUGHT he was saying what I wanted to hear but all I needed him was to LISTEN to how bad the service was. It was incredibly rude to not let me get a chance to speak. It was also super embarrassing to go through this for a birthday celebration and I will never return back to this restaurant. read more

It's loud, I mean it seems that brunch extended for after 6pm. Service at the bar was great and the bartender took really good care of us. They don't honor the free Sangria Yelp bonus after you check in.

This absolutely has be the worst restaurant I've ever been to. The drinks are over priced and weak. The food is disgusting not worth waiting for or the money. I paid $45 for my meal part of a prefix menu. One word DISGUSTING. I literally spent 35 minutes throwing up in the bathroom after eating. Don't waste your time. don't waste your money. The best thing was maybe the service. If I could give less than one star I would, I will never be back. I will never recommend the place. I'm literally writing this with food poisoning so don't waste your time. Please don't give them anymore money don't hype this place up and don't let anyone else get sick. read more

Don Coqui - Paella - Spanish Near Me - White Plains, New York

Terrible service! Stay away!! We were a party of 4 and it was 2 adults and 2 kids. This place is overly expensive for no reason. Beware! They don't list drink prices, when I got my bill my 2 Henny punches cost 35$ a piece and my soda is $7.00. I told the waitress it had to be a mistake because we both had watered down Henny drinks. They don't put the drink prices on the menu for a reason, they overcharge for the drinks and food was mediocre. They also charge gratuity for party's of 4 or more or if your bill is more than 100$ so yeah our gratuity was more than 30$. This place is overrated and not worth the money spent and I'm not a cheap person at all but 70$ for 2 drinks, u gotta be kidding me. read more

Don Coqui - Over priced and poor service - Spanish Near Me - White Plains, New York

Cool place to hang out and have some good food and drinks to add... the lounge in the back is becoming a club unfortunately and they were charging $10 per person last weekend... definitely not very Covid safe. Other than that the main bar was a nice experience as the bartender there is strikingly beautiful and she had a graceful " I'm not taking no bullshit " attitude while serving customers .. . They also only took cash at the bar.. like what ???? Gimme a break! Who does an only cash bar these days ?? Let's keep the integrity of this place alive! read more

Don Coqui - Churrasco - Spanish Near Me - White Plains, New York

Service was great! From the valet, manager and staff, everyone was very pleasant and welcoming. We sat outdoors on the dirt path which was hard on heels but I changed into flats and all was well. Took off one star because the food wasn't as good as the food that used to be in their Astoria, Queens location. Drinks were great. Good music & lovely view. The kids played in the sand after and they had a few games like giant connect 4 and corn hole. Would return for drinks and apps with friends but won't order dinner again read more

Let me tell you something. If Don Coqui was in the dictionary, you'd find the word POPPIN as the definition. This place had me lit faster than a forest fire in California. Male staff. THICC. Female staff. THICC. I visited all the other spots on the ave and none of them come close to this place. I went and we turned UP. We got bottle service right to our standing table directly on the dance floor with our hookah constantly being restocked for us before I could even get the head buzz. This is a SCENE. I brought 4 girls with me and let me tell you, sh*t got wild. DJ at 6. Lounge opens at 9. But the place doesn't really turn up until about 11, so plan accordingly. Drinks are expensive so i suggest getting the bottle service treatment because it was definitely worth it. I can't explain any more of the night or I'll incriminate myself so y'all just gotta go for yourself to experience it. NYC represent. read more

Honestlyyyyyyy hands down, the BEST food I've ever had. The drinks , the food , the service , the atmosphere. I came here for dinner and in the back area, it turns into a lounge/club thing. The only thing was that they played Spanish music all night. Lol. If you're looking for variety , it's not here. Anyway, I will definitely be back. read more

I'm extremely disappointed . Was in White Plains last night and decided to go to Don Coqui for some good music, dancing and drinks....Music was ehh ok so dancing was ehh ok as well. I made the best of it. However the drinks were over priced ( $17 for malibu with pineapple juice) and service was below standard. Bartender in the back was so occupied with social media and selfies that we were the only 2 there at the time and it took more than 15 mins for her to take the drink order. The hookah guy was more attentive then she was. I observed the dining area was empty as well. Will definitely not be recommending or returning to this place. read more

When my party of seven came to eat dinner it was completely empty the food was good and there was only two party's there the fries were good but when we were eating a party was asking for the manager because they only accept cash and there credit card machine was out of order but they did give us 10 percent off so two star read more

DO NOT USE YOUR CREDIT CARD AT THIS ESTABLISHMENT!!! My party of 4 went to celebrate a birthday. As we went to pay the bill, we wanted it split 3 ways. The waitress stated that she couldnt do that. We attempted to put it on one card, that came back that the establishment was blocked. Another card was given and the user had to give permission. The waitress ran that card twice. The establishment attempted to take both runs!!!! And, charged the first card that was originally "declined". I don't know what kind of scam they are trying to get away with, but please be aware, or bring cash. As for the food...appetizers were good, main dishes were meh. Service was slow. Also of note, I attempted to call the establishment about this AND emailed twice, no response. I had to go through my bank to resolve this. I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK read more

I still don't know why people flock to Don Coqui. Is it the so-called, less-than-halfway-decent "Latin" food? The annoying color lights at night? Or is it the plain ghetto, tackiness- you see in ALL of them? I dunno. Pick one! However, The Man likes one thing and one thing only--- and swears by their Pernil. Me? Shrimp Scampi (Yep...in a Puerto Rican restaurant) or the Grilled Salmon. Off I went- to make that dreaded phone call for a pick up order during my lazy Sunday. Person on the other end, tried real hard to be cordial- but was still rough around the edges. My mantra is always to be polite with everybody- especially restaurant staff. Almost wanted to say to her "no f*cking reason to be obnoxious". Instead.....I took a deep breath in, watched my tongue and smiled because I didn't want any part of a White Plains version of "Waiting" up in here. Early dinner was in fact prepared and picked up in 20 minutes. To be honest, my Shrimp Scampi was ok- however, my Tostones were limp. Mr Man liked his well-seasoned Pernil but complained about it being fatty. As the only major Puerto Rican restaurant, kudos to Don Coqui for stomping their way into White Plains when they did almost 5 and 1/2 years ago. I think Don Coqui is already set in their own vibe and don't think that'll change. Food is eatable but they can do better. Since their time here, I think we must've dined a good 2 or 3 times---tops and I'm not losing any sleep over it either. read more

On a Saturday night, A group of brides maids and I came to Don Coquis with my sister to celebrate her bachelorette and left quite disappointed. First and foremost, complimentary iced water wasn't provided with any meal and the only option was to pay $3 for bottled water; very unheard of for a restaurant of this caliber. Secondly, the music selection did not appear to cater to the millennial generation as only salsa and bachata was playing after 10pm. My sister is 25 and would have appreciated a diverse selection of Latin music so she and her friends can dance and be merry, but no. No wonder the place was a ghost town on a Saturday night. Its complete snooze fest and I wouldn't recommend if you're under the age of 40 and want water with your meal. Lastly, the food is decent... that's about it. Will not be returning here. read more

If you're looking for a nice hispanic meal, do not come to Don Coqui in White Plains. I placed a reservation for 8pm, just to make sure I was seated on time. Arrived, and the bar had about a dozen people and the dining area had 3-4 couples. After sitting for 6 minutes, I was finally asked to place an order. Placed our main meal order and drinks. One of the employees dropped off tortilla chips without any sauce. Why? No guacamole, no salsa, pico de gallo, ketchup, mayo or hell not even mustard (I dislike mustard). If I wanted chips without any kind of dip, should have just been offered Doritos from across the street at the CVS. Anyway, the mojitos arrived about 10 minutes later. The mojitos had a full sliced lime tossed into the drink and mint leaves thick enough to make it hard to stir your drink. No biggie. Some people like heavy mint leaves in their mojitos, some only want just enough for the cosmetic part of it. I neither care for either or but ask your customer what they prefer. 11 minutes later, the food arrived, fresh from being "warmed" in the microwave, I mean freshly made since the rice was barely warm, the potato salad was room temperature and the churrasco was room temperature. How is steak barely warm!? No biggie. I ate worst and I didn't want to start to complain. However, when the food arrived, I wanted to see my food. I felt like I was in an episode of Game of Thrones eating in a cave in season 7, episode 1-3, waiting for the White Walkers to arrive. I COULD NOT SEE MY FOOD! I requested to have the light be turned on brighter so I could maybe use all of my senses to eat, now that I knew the food was cold. They turned one of the overhead light fixtures at the next table and thought that would suffice. It didn't. But I didn't want to cause a fuss so I asked for the bill and to pack the food to go. The waiter returned with two to go plates (so I can pack it) and the bill. I was surprised I had to pack the meal but I'm no baby, so I packed it. I looked over the bill to ensure there wasn't anything added to the bill and I handed the waiter my card. The bill was $3.35 more. Why? An expense added to the bill for using a debit/credit card. How? Since when does a restaurant charge for using a card?? Anyway, I tried to use the pen to sign the bill but the pen didn't work. I asked for another pen and that didn't work either. Finally I packed the food, went to the front and asked for another pen. I signed the bill and walked out. Upon leaving, I saw and read the sign, hidden under some box at the window stating that the bill would have a surcharge for using a card. I used to LOVE going to the Don Coqui in New Rochelle (now closed). The Don Coqui in Queens, NY, also good. But White Plains? Stay away. You are better off eating at the pizzeria next door (which is really good in deed). The food was overpriced for extremely below par food. Service was barely mediocre. The lighting felt like a dungeon. Before I could even take a bite, the waiter asked how is the food? How??? I haven't even pulled the fork out the napkin to taste the food sir! Anyway, stay way. Take your money and use your time elsewhere. read more

Went to this location for my colleagues birthday party. We had a menu to choose from that included a choice of appetizers which were average to below average at best. We also had a choice of dinner options. I chose the salmon with mash potatoes and veggies. The salmon was slight tough and dry. One of my friends salmon came undercook. But the waited quickly took it and gave her a fresh piece. The dessert was very good! We received a assortment of cake options. We ordered two pitchers of Mojitos, mango and coconut. I felt they were not good at all. Be prepared to have to speak loudly to the person sitting next to you if it's later on in the night as the club is in the next room. After dinner we had our own section in the club portion of the restaurant. The workers were very aggressive into providing us with drinks and hookah. The dJ was not good at first then he picked it up as I had a few more drinks in my system. Regardless I had a good time. Notable pricing. Hookah 35 Hookah refill 25 read more

Never will return to this place Don Coqui 107 Mamaroneck ave.. would not send a dog to this establishment. In words everyone can understand Hot garbage.

I came here tonight to celebrate one of my friends' birthdays - while I had passed by Don Coquis numerous times in the Bronx and New Rochelle, I had never actually dined at one of them. The decor and atmosphere inside was kind of what I expected - low lighting, music blasting, etc. The decor was nice; dark floors offset by white chairs and booths - it created a nice contrast. The bar area was separated by a wall from the dining area; this actually works well because the bar area can get pretty loud and crowded. The food was fine for the most part - we started with an order of beef and chicken empanadas. The flavor as alright but I've tasted better - the chicken ones were lukewarm, however, while the beef ones were nice and hot. I played it safe with my main and got the chicken and rice; this was better than the apps. It was a large portion and had a lot of different components to make the dish interesting, but for me it still lacked something to make it special. For dessert I split rice pudding with one of my friends - it was tasty but nothing special. Service was alright - no real complaints. What gives this place 2 stars from me was the combination of average food, okay service, and not paying attention to the details. For example, we were served water in plastic cups with bendy straws - ????? Overall, just a meh experience, I probably won't return. read more

#14 Finally i can do a review in the food this place, the other time i went over here was only to the bar.. So went to watch Seattle Seahawks practice (super bowl) with a friend. 35 dollars open buffet and open bar best deal i saw in Westchester for the more watch the most important game of the world. Food: White rice, Moro of black bean and other rice, potato salad, green salad, beef, wings and mac with cheese. I just fell in love with the white rice, beef, wings and the potato salad, it taste like home made, remember my day in DR. For the open Bar they had some wine, beer on tab, mojito, and sangria. I had Blue Moon all day. They had tv even in the bathroom so you did not lost a minute of the super bowl. read more

Sadly, this place seems to have fell off. Used to love coming here but the most recent experience was completely the opposite of what I was accustomed to. For starters, it took 20 minutes for waiter to acknowledge our presence. Second, never was there an introduction from the waiter. He simply walked over and we ordered our entire order since we had plenty on time to look at the menu. Funny enough, the hostess took away our menu before the waiter even came to our table. Once our order was taken, there was another 20-25 minutes before our alcohol-less pitcher of Mojito arrived. I know it was alcohol-less because I don't drink and my significant other who hasn't drank alcohol in over two years also agreed that it tasted like sprite and mint leaves. The most responsive experience of the night was when I was trying to pack up our To-Go and in between packing, they tried to take away our plates that we were packing. Simply horrible experience here at the Mamaroneck location. Unfortunately, it left such a bad taste in our mouths (no pun intended) that I don't even think I would give them the benefit of the doubt and go to the other location with hopes of a better experience. P.S I wrote this all after drinking approximately 85% of the alcohol-less pitcher. read more

I like Don Coqui for their Happy Hour. Its very rare to find good happy drinks for $3. Their frozen drinks are $3 and the mojitos were $5. They have a huge bar area so you don't have to worry about finding a seat. I recommend that you take the Metro North there since they are located in White Plains and you can really kick back and enjoy yourself without worrying about driving. They also have a large selection of food on their happy hour. read more

This place could be really good, it looks nice when you first walk in and the food isn't bad, but it takes so incredibly long to be brought to the table. I've been here multiple times and the service is always terrible, people at the bar are not friendly, drinks are not that big of a deal and incredibly overpriced (mind you they dont even have the price of each drink in the menu which is weird to me) and they're just ignoring you even when you directly call for assistance. Also, manager doesn't care about you going to complain about all of this it looks like they're used to it at this point. read more

2021 Birthday AfterParty was spent here with about 20 friends in the lounge area. The ambiance, The Music was a decent mix of 2000 Hip Hop, Reggaeton and Carribbean Vibes.

Their was a few of us, but staff was was ready and willing to roll up their sleeves and assist. This was our first time here and we were not disappointed.

Fun place to dance and have fun on the weekend. Drinks are good, music is good. The staff frequently passes through the dance floor with mops for all the spilled drinks. 2 bars- one when you walk in (less crowded) and one in the back on the dance floor. Bathrooms were fine & they had an outdooor smoking area that was like a courtyard so you didn't need to get "re-IDed". Parking lot around the corner or if you're lucky enough to find street parking that's an option too. read more
