Coquette blends classic French cuisine with modern, experimental twists. Nestled in a sun-lit corner with generous views of a bustling avenue in Queen Village, Coquette is a modest and refined neighborhood bistro.
Cuisine
Coquette's cuisine is produced through traditional French techniques with strict attention to detail. The flavors in Coquette's fish, meats and cheeses are bold, though not too heavily seasoned — the dishes satisfy in their simplicity.
As a simple starter, enjoy a rich chicken liver pâté served alongside French bread and whipped butter. Then, choose among such specialties as the duck rillettes, served with toasted bread, cornichons and currants, and the delectable charcuterie plate, featuring homemade sausage, pâté and cheeses.
And, of course, there is the raw bar — oysters and mussels from both U.S. coasts are served in delicate heaps, bathing in light but flavorful sauce.
