Don Coqui is the most exciting Authentic Puerto Rican dining in all of the Tri-State area; owned and operated by third generation restaurateurs Jaleene and Jewelle Rodriguez, daughters of renowned restaurateur Jimmy Rodriguez, pioneer of the "Puerto Rican dinning-entertainment" experience in New York. These two young entrepreneurial Latinas have spent their entire life in a family run business. Their childhood memories of the restaurants include the company of Tito Puente, Marc Anthony, Luis Guzman, Celia Cruz, Bill Clinton, Derek Jeter, Congressman Serrano, David Bowie and Fat Joe to name a few. They describe Don Coqui to feel like "home". Their grandfather Jimmy Rodriguez Sr. started selling fish in the south Bronx; their father Jimmy Rodriguez Jr. owned numerous restaurants in New York including Jimmy's Bronx Café, Jimmy's Uptown, Jimmy's Downtown and Jimmy's City Island.
