Salvatore "Coco" Cogliano
- Played by: Armen Garo
- Appears in: "Soprano Home Movies," "The Second Coming"
Coco is a soldier or capo in the Lupertazzi crime family. He owns/manages a small restaurant named Joey's, where he also works as a waiter. He makes aggressively lewd remarks to Meadow Soprano while she is on a date with Patrick Parisi (son of Patsy Parisi), while inebriated from drinking Sambuca. Shortly after Meadow tells Tony of the incident, but brushes it off as public intoxication, Tony Soprano severely pistol-whips and curb-stomps him in his restaurant. Coco is a close friend of Butch DeConcini and patron of his restaurant. He first says that Coco is an okay guy which suggests that he has good standing in the rival Lupertazzi crime family with Tony but suggests that possibly he is a borderline alcoholic. His name is taken from former Lucchese crime family underboss and acting boss, Ettore ("Eddie") Coco, who served under Carmine Tramunti.
