Really tasty! Only bad point was they run out of potatoes to go with the duck!!! Soup was amazing and the dessert platter even better
Great breakfast in a great location on a Wales match day
The quality of the food was very good and our server was helpful, attentive and cheery. We weren't impressed however by the Valentine's menu. Having opted for the 14oz chateaubriand to share we were disappointed to see that not only was it served already plated (and not "to share" as advertised) but that the size was certainly not 7oz each. We were also upset at the dessert to share; it was as advertised, did not match up to the photos on the website and had individual items missing.
We are regular visitors and spend a significant amount. On this occasion, as usual, food and service great. However, when ordering more cocktails we were told we needed to vacate our table in 15 minutes. We asked if we could move but told fully booked. There are tables upstairs! This would never happen when Sam Thomas was manager; she is now across the road at the Ivy where we spent the rest of the evening. We may chose to eat there instead in future.
Absolutely loved our experience with Cote Cardiff Central. Food was exquisite and the staff were just amazing so attentive and friendly could not do enough for us and took the time to chat whilst serving so many others. We will definitely be visiting you again and could you say a huge thank you to them for us. Best regards Debs
Simply the best. Much better food than the Ivy. Great staff, lovely cocktails. Well done.
Once again, my husband and I had a wonderful evening at Cote. Excellent service from the minute we stepped through the until we left. I am even more delighted about coming here because the chicken is Free Range (so the waiter told me) and they provide Free Filtered Water:) It always feels very special coming here....we will definitely be returning in the not too distant future. Thank you x
We chose Cote for our Valentine’s Day meal as we have never been let down by the atmosphere, service and most importantly he food. On this occasion, we felt that the valentines menu could have been better and also the quality of food wasn’t at the standard that we have come to expect of cote.
Beautiful meal .Excellent service Definitely will come back lovely atmosphere
Overall I really liked the atmosphere and the service of this restaurant, but the main course I had of the Valentine's menu - Poulet Rôti - was nothing special, like a meal that I could have cooked at home.
Excellent and friendly staff and service. Excellent food. A taste of french cooking which reminds us of our holidays in Paris and Giverny
Food took forever to come Food was room temperature Bit cold for the wag
Very tasty, excellent service. Lamb was slightly fatty And portion size on the main was slightly small. But all round good and will be coming back
Had a fantastic Valentines meal with Cote Cardiff Central last night. The food, service and every part of our evening was outstanding ! Well done :)
Good food and good service. Will visit again for sure
Amazing food and service. Staff were very attentive. The food was delicious. Wine was fantastic. Will definitely be back again
As always, the food and service were exceptional. We have been to cote many many times, it is always our go to place for any meal out. I don't think I have ever had a bad meal there. The steaks are exceptional and desserts are the best of any restaurant I have ever been to. That coupled with the service means I will always recommend cote to any friends looking for a place to eat.
Asked for marmalade to have with our toast but was told they don’t have marmalade only jam, thought toast and marmalade went together also asked for one slice of toast but told you have to have two as that is the portion So disappointed although the food and service was good don’t think we will return
Spoiled by being seated on what looked like a garden bench. The bench was too low and had a very thin cushion on which to sit. Staff were very good, menu excellent. Chicken too dry.
Brill as always manager and staff super extremely good and recommended
Went for a mid week meal and had nothing less than a perfect night out ! The food was fresh, and cooked to perfection. Portion sizes are really good offering value for money. Brilliant service too. Would highly recommend xx
Food always great here, and excellent choice of drinks - house wines very good. Staff always so friendly helpful and efficient.
My wife & I regularly visit this place for any special occasion. This visit was for my birthday. As always, food & service was excellent.
Great breakfast; great service- perfect pre- match booking for four!
Poor food - had returns. Staff friendly, however - to mitigate poor quality of product
Excellent friendly service and time to chat with the staff .Thanks for relaxing lunch experience .
Excellent. Went for lunch. Atmosphere good. Staff very attentive and the food was well prepared, well presented and very enjoyable. Would recommend.
Lovely food. Great cocktails today. Staff are excellent. Good value and always a delight.
Great service from waiter and excellent food. Very good menu selection.
Superb. Everything was just right. Delicious, properly French food (I lived in France for years), warm welcome, and everyone who served us or took our orders could not have been more helpful and efficient and could not do enough for us. Tables not squashed together. The prices are excellent, particularly for the standard of food. Having been to a few Cotes and Cardiff Cote on a few occasions I enjoy it so much, and nowhere else matches up the their very high sandard. that I can't really see the point in ever eating anywhere else.
Great meal and wide choice .Excellent service Thanks for an enjoyable meal .
as usual a lovely warm welcome.still no carafe of wine a bit sad.food was absolutely lovely.could not enjoyed ourselves moor.still a bit sad no carafe of wine.
As always in Cardiff, Very good. We visit twice a year and always dine at Cote.
100% the best breakfast in Cardiff! Quick service and great customer service. Thank you 😊
Always a good experience & well priced early evening menu.
Table was booked in advance as it was 6 Nations Rugby opening day. Restaurant was very busy but staff were brilliant. We were quickly seated and the baby chair requested in advance was provided. We had one meal that was not up to the usual standard and this was immediately changed to another meal at no charge. Excellent service.
Considering it was a rugby international day, everything was excellent
Within sitting down and ordering we received our starter within 5 minutes which was amazing, one minute after finishing they cleared the table and served our main meal which was a 20 out of 10 again once finished the table was cleared to summarise the meal was amazing and the service was even better
Great wine and fantastic food lovely atmosphere service with a smile
We dine in Cote once every couple of months, food and service in Cardiff is always really good and real value for money.. Highly recommend.
Delicious food, the French Onion soup was amazing, and lovely service.
Amazingly busy for 5PM on a Tuesday. Actually not so amazing given the excellent food, service, and ambience.
Lovely birthday celebration lunch, chicken was excellent. Service great. Will come again
Lovely evening with my son and fiancée as always, will be back soon.
Lovely food , thoroughly enjoyed my birthday lunch and Claudio our waiter was excellent ! Thank you 😊

Once again a fabulous meal and friendly staff just wish you would open in Swansea or mumbles. There is a premises in SA1 Swansea the J Shed that has become available which would be perfect for cote. So I wouldn’t have to travel to cardiff
The food and service was outstanding first time eating here and will not be last
Great food and the staff were fabulous nothing was to much trouble for them.
