What People Are Saying About Cafe Cocomo

In Short – Located in an industrial area on the eastern side of Potrero Hill, Café Cocomo transports its clientele to a hot Havana nightclub. A large patio complete with a small bar, umbrella tables and palm trees greet clubbers at the entrance. Once inside, there's a huge dance floor, stage, bar and an upstairs area with pool tables and yet another bar. The well-dressed, sexy crowd is fun, yet serious about dancing.
Editor's Tips
- Look Good:
- For salsa nights, don't show up in jeans and a T-shirt. "Classy" attire is required.

Horrible Staff and owner
by justmethatchickb at Citysearch
I was at the club over the weekend and it was very dirty there was liquid on the dance floor the staff was very rude and unprofessional the bathroom stinks, and if you try and talk to the management ... good luck ... there was a accident there over the weekend and the "management" was very rude when i went to report the dance floor being wet ... THE STAFF NEED'S TO TAKE MANAGEMENT CLASSES AS WELL AS CUSTOMER SERVICE CLASSES
- Pros: Nice patio area
- Cons: Poor Staff and Management

This place is amazing!
by Tashi at Citysearch
I was just at Cocomo this past weekend for their famous Salsa Nights and had the best time ever. First there is plenty of FREE parking right by the Club, which saved me at least $10! The staff was extremely friendly and courteous. I took the Salsa dance lesson with Jake and highly recommend it. I am a decent Salsa dancer but the lessons really help me brush up and it’s a great ice breaker since the instructor rotates partners throughout the lesson. Then the real fun started. Great live music, very friendly dancers, huge dance floor ideal for Salsa dancing, clean rest rooms, and I got to mention the friendly staff again. Really made me feel at home.
Oh, I almost forgot the amazing Happy Hour from 7 to 9pm. Come early for $2 beers, cocktails and yummy Tacos!
I have been to several Salsa Clubs all over the world and this place is THE BEST! You go to check it out.
- Pros: The friendliest staff ever!
- Cons: none that I came across

Watch your stuff--it will get stolen!
by 8anza1 at Citysearch
I love Cocomo. But I recently got completely f--ed there, because my bag was stolen. The staff were helpful, but there's nothing they can really do about it. I guess it was my fault I didn't use the coat check. But I've been dancing for over a decade, and I've never had that happen before, and I've been told it happens frequently there. On the night my bag was stolen, someone's leather jacket was stolen too.
So use the coat check!
- Pros: Best place to salsa dance in the city
- Cons: watch your stuff--it will get stolen! Use the coat check.

Awful staff
by rickr1234 at Citysearch
This review is really for regular dancers.
I think if you are dancing for the first time or just going out to drink or meet people, it is probably ok.
However, if you are an intermediate to advanced dancer, I think you will find the following:
1. The staff is rude,
2. Atmosphere is poor,
3. The stage smells awful,
4. The DJ on Mondays and Wednesdays play the worst salsa songs possible.
- Pros: not much
- Cons: pretty much everything
