Coco Lezzone

I love when I find gems! Mediterranean food is one of my favorite cuisines, and my friends and I stumbled upon Coco Lezzone during an evening out in DuPont. I was stunned to see the decent menu prices. Anyone who eats out in DC knows how expensive the restaurants can be. At Coco Lezzone you get affordable prices and hearty portions! We all loved our food and had plenty to take for leftovers. The restaurant has a smaller bar area that was pretty crowded on a Friday night, but we were able to sit in the area while waiting for our table. The hostess was very kind and accommodating, making sure that we didn't have to wait too long for a table. Our waiter was also great and was super attentive despite also serving other tables. I most definitely will be back to try some other items from their menu!

Came here for a biz lunch on a weekday. We started with the lentil soup and the ever popular 5 Phoenicians and 2 Greeks appetizer of spreads. For my main I got the lamb kabob and my friend got the chicken kabob.The side salads came out first and were excellent! The app of spreads was crazy good. I loved the falafel on it the best! Generous portion. This could really be a meal. Soup good but I added a little salt. The lamb kabob was a little overcooked for me but tasty. The charred vegetables, especially the broccoli, were my favorite. The kabobs also come out with some spreads so there was overlap in what we ordered. Would have loved to try the desserts but the place got too busy and we ran out of time. Our waiter said there is a lively bar crowd for happy hour; I'd like to return for that.

Great little lunch spot! They have a very large menu that spans Greek and some Italian dishes. Came with a friend who was in town and service was quick but the waitress brought us out the wrong dishes. We didn't correct her but just fyi that they have some people who are new so there are hiccups. We also didn't get brought an item that we asked for. However the food was very good that we did get! Would come back for dinner as it looks lovely and I'd love to bring my husband!

Do not miss this gem of a restaurant! Such a cute spot with a nod to fashion! What an amazing concept! Mediterranean food from: Greece, Lebanon, and Italy. The service was amazing! (Thank you V!) The food was amazing with LARGE portions! The absolutely best Chicken Marsala I believe I have ever had! Gyro was great! All entrees are served with a beautiful salad including tomatoes, onions, and a variety of Mediterranean olives. The desserts were rich and irresistible! Any time I make it back to DC this restaurant has made it to the top of my list to visit!

Located a couple of blocks away from the White House, while facing fierce competition with excellent restaurants nearby, this place has been constantly rated high on Yelp. I believe the owner has a big & warm heart and that's why the portions are also big, food are so heartedly cooked, and guests are so professionally served. A quiet yet intimate environment for either business or pleasure, you will not leave without a happy tummy and mood, thanks to the wonderful chef and waiter (a big shout out to our waiter Sebastian). I'll go back anytime for a hearty meal.

Food, service, atmosphere are all exceptional. Giant menu, a little too large, many options. I recommend the dinner salads and their middle eastern dishes. The service is always excellent, all of the servers are kind. Their tiramisus are imported directly from Italy!

Came here for dinner with friends and it was a nice quiet night. Our server was Sebastian and he was AMAZING!!! Sebastian was patient and helpful with our group and even offered to separate our checks. We were a party of 7 and we had lots of questions. Here's what we ordered. Starter salad with entree: 9/10 delicious. Would have been a 10 but had to ask for more dressing. This salad is DELICIOUS!!! Full of veggies and flavor. Spicy pasta with sausage: 10/10 Delicious Served Hot (temperature) I love spice and it had a nice little kick. Gnocchi with red sauce and peppers: 9/10 didn't have a protein in it. But, flavorful and wasn't spicy. Chicken kabobs plate: 8/10 I personally didn't try the chicken but the hummus was ok. Plate was nice and full. Loved that it came with olives, pickles, lebneh, pita, veggies and salad. Chicken rosemary Ravioli: 10/10 I personally didn't try but my friend said it was delicious and 10/10. Peach tea: 8/10 delicious but sweet. I had to water it down. Desserts: Cannoli: 9/10 came with 2 pieces Tartufo: 3/10 had this in Italy and this was beyond disappointing and tiny for the price. Semifreddo torroncino: 10/10 delicious Overall, Sebastian made our dinner great! His personality was personable and friendly. Sebastian was attentive and made sure we were all happy.

We were a little disappointed that our go to restaurant was gone but decided to try this new replacement. We were looking for Italian and this restaurant had Italian as well as Lebanese and Greek food. Never saw that mix before and felt it was too much of a hodgepodge. Figured Lebanese was the primary but decided on the pasta dishes. Mains come with a very nice salad. Our seafood pasta dishes were plentiful and pretty good. Our server said all dishes were big, nobody leaves hungry. The owner chef did thank us for coming, I just wonder if the large menu lacks focus.

The food and service were incredible! The flavors were perfect! A large and eclectic menu.

HOLY MOLY! This place is AMAZING. I got the belly dancer salad with chicken and it was a lot of food. Really delicious, great service, and super cute inside too!
