KoKo feels like the Grove’s modern side, always full of locals even on weeknights. From the cofounders of Peacock Garden and Jaguar Ceviche, it already feels like part of the neighborhood. The food leans refined with tacos on Oaxacan tortillas, lobster with chorizo, short rib mole, and whole snapper from the grill. The mezcal list runs deep and the cocktails are well made. And yes, it’s pup friendly.

Pro Tip: Grab a table on the patio and let the larger plates shine. @kokobybakan // 2856 Tigertail Avenue
