About Koko

Koko by Bakan brings upscale Mexican dining to the lush, laid-back streets of Coconut Grove, delivering a menu rooted in authentic flavors with a refined Miami sensibility. From blue corn tortillas and duck enchiladas to aguachile de camarón with fresh mango, every dish is crafted to impress.

The bar program is equally celebrated, anchored by an extensive mezcal selection and creative cocktails like the watermelon margarita and tamarindo-chipotle variants that keep locals coming back. The atmosphere blends casual warmth with trendy, upscale energy — ideal for a date night, a celebratory dinner, or a leisurely weekend meal.

Outdoor seating, a full bar, and a dog-friendly patio add to the appeal, while valet parking and OpenTable reservations make planning a breeze. Happy hour runs from 4–6 PM daily, and the Miami Spice lunch menu (seasonal) offers exceptional value for the quality on offer.

With over 1,300 Google reviews averaging 4.6 stars, Koko has firmly established itself as one of Coconut Grove's most beloved dining destinations.
