Great service staff where exceptional and nothing was too much trouble - the gluten free experience was such a breath of fresh air - no complications or fuss made just great choice and attention to detail. Quality of food was amazing and the creme brûlée just outstanding

Excellent service from a very pleasant waiter. Food was delicious and, at £11.95 for 2 courses, fantastic value for the centre of Edinburgh. We will definitely be back.

Everybody was very tentative at first then not sure if it was too busy and they couldn't cope but then they started being a bit lacks as in. Asked for a 2nd bottle of wine to our waiter then had to ask someone else to bring it with the first bottle every time the waiter passed would replenish our glasses with the 2nd bottle it was a case of pour your own. Wasn't something that would stop me from going again but that was the reason why we did not leave the full 12.5% tip that they recommended!!! Apart from that the meal was gorgeous and I would recommend Cote to friends.

Brilliant food and service. GF choices were amazing. Only very minor comment was that a 12.5% service charge was added to the bill by default (only 2 of us dining so not the standard addition for large groups). I was more than happy to pay this (since it was stated at going to staff) but I don’t like the presumption on the bill. I like to tip if I feel it’s deserved.

This was my first visit to Cote, Edinburgh. I used to eat at Cote, Oxford on a regular basis and loved it, so I was interested to see how this restaurant would compare. I wasn't disappointed. The waiter was very pleasant and attentive. The menu was great. The food was up to its usual high standard (although I asked for a well done steak and didn't get it) and desserts were really lovely. We had a table in the window which meant we weren't bothered by noise from other diners. I will definitely be using this restaurant again.
