Lovely early evening dinner. The service was great, the food and wine were both really tasty and excellent value for money. Unfortunately our server was busy when we left so we didn’t get to say goodbye or thank her personally. We’ll definitely be back.

Went for the early evening set meal for a change and couldn’t have been more pleased. Whitebait to start and Beef en Croute. Chocolate pot to finish. Bottle of House white so lovely for the price. Great service!

Overall experience was excellent. One small criticism was that the fish pie (parmentier) whilst delicious, was too small a portion on it's own. it would have benefitted from a side of carrot & broccoli or some other vegetable. I was still hungry after the starter & the main. To be fair, when I did point this out to staff & order a side of chips, they didn't charge for the chips.

All the starters were delicious but my friends said the chicken/bacon parmentier was too salty, the rice in the risotto was too al dente (me) but my other friend said the sausage was delicious. As for deserts créme brûlée delicious, dark chocolate too dense. Coffee delicious

Fabulous as always. Good food at a reasonable price. Efficient service which is non-intrusive and food is very quick to arrive after ordering. Waiter made a suggestion for a glass of wine which was spot on. Usually go to Cote in Glasgow and Edinburgh keeps up the high standard.

Another excellent visit to Cote this evening. As ever the staff were most attentive and preempted our requirements. The food is well cooked and presented. As mentioned before heated plates would make a huge difference! The menu represents good value for money and the variety of dishes offered is comprehensive.

Love this restaurant and only one small issue stopped it getting 6 stars. The boiled egg in the salad starter was just out the fridge and much too cold. Everything else was spot on.

I am a regular customer having been to tge chain 3 times in tge last couple of weeks and while the service was excellent as usual there were a couple of issues which while dealt with satisfactorily slightly marred our experience. The cocktail offered in the deal was unavailable but a suitable alternative was offered. The pork belly crackling served was soggy and limp but when mentioned was taken away and crisped up but should not have been served that way in the first place. The frozen berries dessert did not have enough hot chocolate sauce to melt the berries but more was given when requested. On the whole this experience was unusual and not what we have come to expect from Cote

Very good initial service and excellent with my celiac gluten free requirements. Understood need for gluten free flags for cook/serving staff but maybe remove when given to customer. Due to seemed shortage of staff when restaurant got busy less attentive. However, would return and recommend Cote.

Had dinner at Côte Edinburgh last night for the first time. We loved everything about it! The menu was fabulous, difficult to decide what to eat due to excellent variety of choice. The food did not disappoint, everything was delicious. Every member of staff was welcoming and very attentive. I also loved the decor, and felt that I was sitting in an authentic French brasserie. This will definitely be a regular haunt!
