Lovely restaurant, we had the set menu and the food was excellent. The restaurant was very busy for midweek which reflected in the service, it was a bit slow, especially at the end when we were waiting to pay the bill.
Nice food but portions rather small. We still felt hungry when we left. Service was polite but the waitress did not look relaxed or happy.
We were a party of 6 ladies some of whom had not visited the Restaurant previously and were so impressed by the food and the service asked for the Restaurant cards and intend to visit bringing other friends. A most enjoyable experience.
Great value for money on the lunch deal Monday to Friday. That was my second visit and returning again in June for Saturday lunch with the girls
The food was lovely, as always. Steak frite perfectly cooked and refreshing lemon sorbet. The staff are always friendly and courteous, despite the restaurant being full. Will definitely be back.
Our waiter was nice but very busy and therefore the service was slow. My sister's main course was not hot and she had to send it back. Our waiter did make make a special effort to please my grandmother as she was celebrating her birthday.
We had a nice meal but the service was slow. Th meal was more expensive than I'd thought it would be, even though I'd checked out the menu online before visiting.
The food at our table for four was very good we had the set lunch which was very good value. The coffees could have been hotter. Staff were efficient , good atmosphere.
Ego of quality, generous portions, although my choice of main had run out by 12.30pm which was not impressive. I think the nicest part of the Edinburgh restaurant is the back area.
SERVICE WAS NOT GOOD - IN FACT VERY SLOW. ALSO OBJECT TO 12.5% GRATUITY ADDED AUTOMATICALLY TO BILL FOR TABLE OF 4. FOOD GOOD BUT THE REST NEEDS SOME MANAGEMENT INFLUENCE.
Appalling service - had to ask to order and had to ask for every course. Took over 2 hours for 2 courses from the set menu
Lovely restaurant, warm & welcoming staff, great food and relaxed atmosphere. Only negative is that the service was a teensie bit slow, ie we often had to attract the attention of a waiter/waitress for service. Otherwise, would thoroughly recommend.
Excellent food, and service was up to usual high standard delivered by staff at Cote brasserie whenever you go in UK. Booking good idea as busy even on a Tuesday.
Pleasant staff, lovely decor and excellent food which was very reasonably priced, considering the high standard. This an excellent venue for old friends meeting for a leisurely lunch and long chat. We will definitely return.
Excellent service and delicious food. We had to change our reservation at the last minute and they accommodated us with no problems. Definitely will be back!!

Good varied set menu as ever and staff provided good service. Three courses at £12.95 represesents great value and June Menu to look forward to next week!
Still a fan of Côte but last night was clearly an 'off' night. Slightly shambolic and the guest of honour had to settle for his third choice of main. Food generally seemed a notch lower than we'd experienced before. There seemed to be inexperience among the staff (fair enough) but it was in evidence throughout the meal and was disappointing for us and our guests from Australia. We'll be back but will hope to find normal service is resumed.
The experience was good. Made to feel welcome, friendly intelligent service, and food was fine. Cannot really fault. Not at all bad at the price.
Had a very enjoyable Sunday Brunch, which we booked ahead for a surprise 30th birthday celebration. Food and service was up to the usual high standards and the staff were particularly attentive and treated us to an extra glass of fizz too! Would highly recommend this lovely restaurant.
Lovely evening in relaxed atmosphere with good friends. Small issue where my wife's duck was undercooked and very tough. Restaurant recognised the issue and did not charge for it. Apart from that as always excellent food and service
I go to Cote restaurants across the country quite a lot, this was first time in the Edinburgh one and found it to be reliably consistent with the others. Food quality is good and service is decent.
Great deal for lunches or dinner if before 7pm, 2 courses for £10.95 or 3 for £12.95. Good size portions for deal meal too. If getting water ask for ice as water comes in earthenware jugs and warmer than we felt it should be.
Friendly waiter, excellent food and reasonable price. What's not to like! The duck with cherry sauce and Breton fish stew were both cooked to perfection.
First visit to this branch and yet again Côte continue to impress through excellent service great food and lovely surroundings. Had the two course lunch deal. Portions of a good size and very tasty
As usual the food was excellent, from a wide choice of options. Service good too. But oh so horribly noisy. A large cackling bunch of inebriated women at a nearby table completely drowned out conversation and rather spoiled the evening.
Always a pleasure to stop by this cotes for dinner after a busy day in town. Customer experience is alway what you would expect as is the quality of food
Great food! Reasonable prices! A fave spot! I have visited 3 outlets of this chain. Consistent food and service across the board! Def try the creme brulee!
Great food and service. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Aye from the a la carte menu but plan to return to try the set menu. Looks great value
Excellent atmosphere: very friendly staff: good food: great value - what more could you want? Have been to Liverpool Oxford and now Edinburgh- all good.
This is a lovely restaurant with friendly and attentive staff. The set menu is good value for money and i like how the restaurant change the menu every month. The restaurant is well laid out so tables are not to near other. I have recommended this restaurant to many friends who have enjoyed their visit
A nice restaurant. The staff very efficient and friendly, food nice and good value for money. I will definitely return and would happily recommend to friends.
Excellent service. Poor dish. Not the normal standard one would expect from Cote Brasserie. However, the staff dealt with the concern in an excellent manner.
Excellent brunch, the black pudding is delicious !! We used the deal which was a cooked breakfast plus tea/coffee and juice. It was well worth it, will be back again.
Excellent service and food great relaxing atmosphere. Would go again. Such a relaxing evening.Great value for money staff attentive and helpful but not in your face.
Always tip-top 👍 A lovely sanctury during festival time which can be very busy and closterphobic: but not Côte. Food was served quickly and delicious as always with drink constant flowing. Staff brilliant every time 💋
Very friendly and helpful staff. Good range of dishes. Very reasonably priced lunch menu. Quick service. A very enjoyable outing, I would go again and recommend it to friends.
Restaurant couldn't cope with numbers. Long time between courses . Sorry - refused to pay service charge. Always find the food good but not the service in this particulate restaurant .
Slow service. Arrived at 18:55pm for a 19:00 reservation. Given lunch time menu (12pm to 7pm) as well as main menu. Ready to order food at 7:01pm only to be advised that lunch time menu was no longer in operation!
Food, chicken, steak and wine very enjoyable. Service a little slow to start off with but improved immensely. A good way to celebrate my birthday.
Waitress had very bad attitude almost to point of rudeness and arguing with customers . Gin and tonics served with diet tonic without asking preference told no ordinary tonic and when asked to take drink back eventually a bottle appeared ! Most disappointing all round and we were not asked to order vegetables with our main course either .Some serious training required have had lunches before and excellent all round so this was not good in any department even wine request was out of stock .
There was a lovely atmosphere, and the staff were friendly and attentive. There was a good selection of starters and main courses. Be aware of the "optional" 12.5% service charge added to your bill!
Excellent food and service. The staff are extremely helpful. Great atmosphere too. Well worth a visit. We visited on a Saturday night even though it was busy food and service were extremely swift.
Good food, good service, good value with the pre-theatre menu. I would definitely go there again. A real feel of a Parisian Brasserie! Going to take our family next time!
Friendly staff, good service and excellent food. Very good value for money .Have been several times and recommended Cote to friends . Will be back again soon
Our waitress was disinterested, efficient, but no warmth. The bottle of wine we wanted not available so we were offered a more expensive one, we asked if it would be a the price of the one we had chosen and after discussion with the Manager this was confirmed
Lovely restaurant, nice seat in the window very attentive staff. Excellent starter Boudin Noir, beautiful main course and lovely rose wine . We will return!
Great food,excellent staff and a pleasing atmosphere in the restaurant. The pricing is very competitive with lots of choice from the menus. Hope to be back soon.
Nice atmosphere, good food and service. There was nothing to find fault with. Would have no hesitation in going back - in fact that was my second visit in a week!
The staff are excellent and the food is superb, just love going to this brasserie the atmosphere is buzzing and lots of fun. Excellent value for money.
Tasty meal & good value for money but chicken main course & cheesy potatoes served lukewarm. Also salad starter served on flat plate and main course served in a bowl!
