I decided to take my mother here on Mother's Day because this was one of her favorite restaurants in Manhasset. When we arrived there were two families ahead of us. When the it was our turn the host/waiter ask us if we had a reservation( which I did), but I found it very odd he asked only us. We were seated after about 15- 20 mins of waiting. We were seated in an area that had about five tables to one waiter. In the beginning everything seem fine. We order our food and drinks smoothly. I ordered the a Caesar salad as an appetizer and a well done salmon for as entree and my mother ordered filet of sole en croute and a carrot cake for dessert. My salmon wasn't well done and the potatoes were a little too hard. I also noticed that they didn't have the full menu. I'm assuming it was because it was Mother's Day weekend. Ambience/service: The table next to us was furious with our waiter and caused a scene. The waiter seemed even keel and handled the situation very well. Since the waiter seem to diffuse the problem, he spend most of his time on that table. Remember there are five tables in this one section. So it was hard to get our waiters attention when we want to get the bill. We waited for the bill for about 20 mins. When we received the bill it was incorrect( one of the issue with the table next to us). Also, I asked for my mother's food to be wrapped to go and we never received it. As we were leaving the host was giving out some flowers to the mothers and no one gave my mother a flower or said happy Mother's Day to us. Overall, the food and the service has changed.
We haven't been to La Coquille in many years but I think that will change. Very wide variety of classic French dishes on the menu and are open to changing up sides for main courses. Caesar salad was chopped up more than most places but served lightly dressed as requested. Foie gras was a good size portion but lacked a good accompaniment (a fruit of some sort and thinner bread). Roast chicken had a terrific crispy crust and the sides I chose, frites and French green beans were excellent. Shared a Napoleon for dessert and brought back half (made with whipped creme instead of a heavier filling). Not badly priced. Waiter was efficient and friendly.
My dinner was the Bouillabaisse which was missing 90% of what was described on the menu. No musscles or any shellfish. Only white fish. I do not send it back since I already sent back my Caesar salad since it had croutons and I can't eat gluten. I like La Coquille since I've been there quite a bit but they were way off the usual fair last night. Usually it is great so I will give them a pass for now. Will I go back? Yes.
Rack of Lamb was tasty,tender and nice presentation . Always a great dish on the regular menu. The Halibut special (almond crusted) was to die for. Shared a delicious coconut and pecan cake with cappuccino and an espresso for dessert. Can't resist the dessert cart.
The food is consistently excellent. We have been dining here for over 25 years and it never fails to deliver, delicious dishes from salads through desserts along with impeccable, professional service. La Coquille is our favorite local restaurant.
