Great service, perfect location and, as usual, the most amazing food! The only downside is I cannot stop eating there, despite no pressure to do so, and I feel rather stuffed whenever I leave! Don’t wait, just go!

Lovely food, but incredibly slow service. The table was booked for 18.15 and having only ordered main courses, we struggled to leave by 19.25. This was booked to eat prior to a show at the venue across the road, and should be standard service for this restaurant.

Arrived 5.45pm for pre Theatre meal. Orders taken at 6pm when we found out preferred dish not available. Main course arrived 7pm so we had to bolt it down or leave some in order to get to Theatre on time. Despite multiple requests to staff there was a 35 minute gap between dishes for starters being cleared and main course arriving. We had to leave in a hurry. We all paid the costs of our meals minus service charge and minus 1 ordered desert which we didn't have time for. As I approached the till area with the tray of money, the manager ( who I had earlier found off hand and bordering on rude) turned and walked away. I left the money by the till and we ran to the theatre. We were a party of 8 from a very large community group who have used this restaurant in this way a number of times. Howerver we won't be doing so again.

Even though we were booked at 6 pm so we could get to the theatre at 7.30pm, our order must have been forgotten and our food didn't arrive in time . We had to leave before eating .....enough said.

Had a very poor steak frites meal tonight. Have had this meal before and it has been good. They seem to have changed the steak to a large slice of beef that was over cooked and tough. Staff were very good but good standard not up to scratch.

The service was fair. It took an hou to get our main meal. The rib eye steak I ordered as medium was first rare and then when cooked ended up well done. The waiter took my main meal off the bill

We had an excellent meal at Cote. The staff were very friendly and efficient despite the restaurant being very crowded. The food was fantastic and we enjoyed everything we ate - pissaladiere, crab mayonnaise, steaks, frites, lemon tart. We usually go before visiting the Millennium Centre and will certainly continue to do so.

The Cote Brasserie is in a lovely location n Cardiff Bay. The food from the lunchtime special menu was lovely and because it's my Birthday this month, my daughter and I were given a free glass of kir royale each. The staff are very friendly and attentive and we didn't feel rushed at any point. We felt very relaxed and well looked after. Thank you xx

From the moment I walked in the door, it was held open by the manager who instantly saw me seated. Our waiter was attentive without being over bearing. The food was excellent. Having paid the bill, the waiter wished us a good day as did the female manager. The restaurant was well attended and the satff were busy, but I experienced Cotes at its best.
