    Le Coq Rico means “The Bistro of Beautiful Birds” in French, and its name doesn’t disappoint--it’s all about the poultry (and the eggs) here. Even the macaroni au gratin has chicken morsels inside. Read more

    DELICIOUS! Had the quarter chicken and what we came for: the floating island dessert. Phenomenal. For 2, highly recommend sitting at the kitchen vs one of the small tables in the entryway.

    Amazingly delicious chicken! As you would expect @ $95/bird😜 The French bird was very flavorful. Yukon potato purée is a must w/ the Napoleon a great dessert to share. Service is top notch!

    The environment is beautifully set. Great spot for a lunch meeting or date. The lunch was phenomenal, I had the butternut squash soup and the chicken burger. The wait staff was charming and helpful.

    You're definitely in for a treat when you order anything from this menu. Order the offal platter to start and enjoy the duck.

    Well worth the price. Fois gras was so...comforting. New Hampshire was a bit gamey, but the gravy enhanced it wonderfully. Dessert was light and delicious.

    The old school one man show approach to hospitality is fun albeit intense at times. The bird is good for sure but advise you to be adventurous. Definitely save room for dessert: signatures a winner

    Beautiful restaurant and great place for rotisserie chicken lovers. The sides are amazing (mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, French fries). The vegetable salad app was also amazing and very fresh

    That Ile Fondante tho!? One of the best desserts I've ever had. Slow cooked eggs, butternut squash soup and the 120 day old stuffed chicken all exceptional. Come with a large party and enjoy!

    The chicken is tender and very flavorfull, its a must try. And save from for dessert, their l'lle flottante is a sweet tooth's dream!

    This restaurant doesn't mess around when it comes to birds. Eggs, chicken, duck dishes are excellent. Even the simple salad is great. Their first location is near the Sacre coeur in Paris.

    Get the duck fois gras terrine, soft boiled egg, rhubarb souffle and the homemade ice cream. Stay away from the offal platter.

    You'll get a claim check for leftovers, which are discreetly packaged (including the jus). Included is a recipe card for Chef Westermann's Poultry Broth Bouillon with Seasonal Vegetables.

    Recommend sitting in front of the kitchen. Had the quarter chicken which was so juicy as were the sides. L'ile flotante was a perfect finish, light creamy dessert.

    Eater: been roasting chickens on 20th St since ‘16. Now for a little less than $100, an entire giant brune landaise bird is available, poached and then roasted to a perfect shade of brown, for pickup.

    The whole chicken dishes are great. And the sides (fries, mac and cheese) very good. The decor is strange though.
