I love Cocha. I have celiac and eat dairy free. All there food is so flavorful and usually there are amazing coconut based ice cream and sorbets like chocolate or pina coloda or another fruit flavor. The main restaurant in BR I eat out at.

Service was geeat, vibe & live music were great. Food, no. We were there for Sunday brunch. I have Celiac and ordered the Indonesian Stir Fried Rice Noodles and my husband (non-Celiac) ordered the Monte Croque Madame. What we received was pretty much unrecognizable vs the menu description. The vegetables in my dish were so overcooked and saturated in a very heavy burnt-tasting sauce. There was no hint of lemongrass, a small swirl of peanut sauce, and really just "one note". My husband tried hard to work thru his sandwich but said the bread was sickly sweet and the ham was extremely salty and tough (so much so that he couldn't eat it). Rather than the berry jam in the description, his was smeared with a very burnt Korean style BBQ sauce. It just didn't work. Perhaps the GF menu options are more expansive on the regular lunch & dinner menus. There were relatively few choices on the brunch menu. I don't think we'll be back. So dissapointing!

Fun atmosphere and excellent service. GF items are well marked on the menu and our server was familiar/comfortable taking care of our requests.

The food was delicious, and they even had a GF / dairy free dessert

This place was amazing! They definitely understand cross contamination risks and use different cutting boards and utensils for gluten free food prep as well as separate pans for cooking. Just let the hostess know you have Celiac Disease or gluten intolerance so they can alert the kitchen. Delicious food!

AMAZING FOOD. They told us they had steak off-menu with mashed potatoes and asparagus. I ordered it and it was the best steak I've ever eaten. We were one of the only ones in the restaurant at the time (very early dinner) and so I felt very safe. Even with a busy kitchen I would trust them.

Husband had the short ribs with kimchi, and the short ribs were inedible (tough), but the kimchi was tasty. They said the pasta was a favorite and hubby liked it too (he is not GF).

Great food! Our server was a little rude, but the food made up for it. Things were clearly marked on their menu what was GF/DF/V. I had the cachapa with slow roasted pork and Korean grilled flanked ribs for an appetizer. I had/shared Indonesian stir fried noodles and the grilled fresh catch for entrees. Everything was very flavorful and so good!

Second visit to this wonderful establishment. We had the same waiter as last time and he is top notch. He is knowledgeable about the food and drinks and goes into detail on how prepared and even harvested. I have Celiac, so eating out can be a challenge. The food is absolutely beautiful and delicious. Highly recommend. Precautions are taken to prevent cross contamination.

The menu was clearly marked and had many gf options. Not only was our server very knowledgeable of celiac/ gluten allergy, the owner came out to our table and spoke with us, reassuring we’d be taken care of. The food was unique and delicious! I recommend Cachapas and the Indonesian Stir Fry Noodles. They were amazing!! Oh and dont forget the chocolate panna cotta for dessert! Soooo good! We will definitely be back!

Delicious gem in Baton Rouge, with a diverse, truly GF and V menu. Owner Enrique greeted us and Juan walked us through the South American inspired menu. The Criollo and the Bloody are worth the visit!

Amazing food. Most of the menu is gluten or could be changed to become gluten free. Chef is highly knowledgeable about gluten and cross contamination and personally came to talk about the menu with me. Owner and chef are very accommodating. Great cocktails. Everything is farm to table and a couple of the desserts were gluten free :) highly recommend this restaurant
