Ten new restaurants rise above the crowd by Brian Ries
#2 Coco Grill
“…grilled and roasted meats packed with vibrant flavors like adobo and cilantro, fabulous sides and a killer seafood soup.”
SRQ Dining
Colorful, flavorful, Latin cuisine served in a simply delightful dining environment…
“Coco Grill describes its cuisine as New Latin fusion. We describe it as simply delicious. The flavors range from tangy sweet to spicy and exotic adding real dimension to the food.

Herald Tribune – Food and Wine
Latin fusion shines at Coco Grill by Jack Winner
“The strips of Panca Adobo pork had a delightful tenderness, while the sauce was rich and complex with an undercurrent of smokiness running through it and just a hint of spiciness peeking through… and the Cilantro Pumpkin Seed and the Grilled Red Tomato showed real depth and subtlety.”

Coco Grill is a sign that Peruvian cuisine is now a permanent part of Sarasota's dining scene by Brian Ries
“Hidden within that simplicity, however, is some damn fine food and a hell of a lot of different flavors.”
Herald Tribune
By Lee Mc Call
“A little gem of a restaurant tucked in Merchants Point at the corner of Clark and Swift roads serving contemporary Latin cuisine that is amazingly affordable.”

August 21, 2010 We had the best meal that we had in Sarasota in 9 years..... ”COCO GRILL”… ,amazing mix of Colombian and Mexican and Peruvian ......only 26 seats, price great, food fresh healthy, creative, beautifully presented. Get there before it will become another Selva Grill and is over .... This is really...Great...going again soon , this could be an addiction.. Dasha – Sarasota FL July 23, 2010 Check out the new Coco Grill … It's Latin fusion and it's fabulous. This restaurant deserves some notice and the best part is the prices are affordable for this economy. Yummy! I’m going back tonight to try something else... Elissa Bentsen – Sarasota FL June 28, 2010 My wife and I have visited this new restaurant…. I have to recommend it highly for a delightful eating out experience. The feeling of welcome in and have a seat in a non-formal sitting greets you at the door. The friendly staff is more than willing to explain the menu and suggest just the right dish for you. But the five star rating is when your meal arrives. The presentation is fantastic as if you were in a five star restaurant and the best part is that the quality and latin flavor of the dishes are superb. As they used to say "Try it, you'll like it". This is a first class grill that must have your support to stay open for a long time. Bill & Mary – Sarasota FL
