About Coucou

A dusky little boîte that feels like it was airlifted from the Marais and dropped into southern California. The soundtrack skews funky, the martinis come cold and crisp, and you’ll likely spot someone sketching in a Moleskine at the bar. The steak frites and clever cocktails cut through the ocean air, making a regular Tuesday feel like a mini escape to France. Caveat emptor: auto-gratuity even on parties of one.
