Twenty years in the making, and not exactly one to make a quiet entrance.
Mas Amiel’s Maury is a favorite of our W**e Director, Jerry Cox. A blend of several vintages, made primarily from Grenache Noir and aged for a minimum of twenty years, it has all the richness and complexity that comes with time, while remaining beautifully fresh.
And then there’s the bottle. Generous in every sense, it’s hard to miss making its way across the dining room and even harder not to be curious about what’s inside.
A little spectacle for the table, and a very good reason to stay for one more glass.

Savoir-Faire.
Chef Chris Emery takes us behind the dish: Spot Prawn Grillées, finished with sauce Paloise. A fresh expression of the classic Béarnaise, Paloise trades tarragon for mint, lending a bright, herbaceous counterpoint to the richness of the prawns.
Rooted in French tradition and shaped by a distinctly modern point of view, every element is considered.

Hailbut beurre blanc
Beurre blanc is said to have been born when a chef forgot the egg yolks, and more than a century later, we’re still grateful.

What people say
French restaurants are known for their exquisite cuisine, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance. Le Coucou on Lafayette Street in New York City is a perfect example of a French restaurant that embodies all these qualities. The internationally acclaimed chef Daniel Rose has brought a little slice of Paris to the Big Apple with his gracious modern nod to fine European gastronomy.
Le Coucou's menu features classic French dishes with a contemporary twist, such as the side of frites that is never a bad idea. The catch of the day is also not to be missed, and the Tres Leches dessert is the perfect way to celebrate life's sweet moments.
The restaurant's ambiance is equally impressive, with date night views that will never let you down. The decor is elegant and sophisticated, transporting diners to another time and place.
Overall, Le Coucou offers an exceptional dining experience that proves the true essence of fine French dining can thrive in any time zone. So if you're looking for a taste of Paris in New York City, make your reservation at Le Coucou and enjoy bon appétit!
