Good premises and ambience. Service was attentive without being intrusive. Food was generally well prepared although fish was undercooked for my taste. Would definitely return.
Had an excellent soupe de poisson & as often we both had steak tartare. We are frequent visitors and therefor get friendly recognition and service.
Excellent value for lunch menu .like the monthly New choices Good choices and very varied menu Although busy didn't feel pressure to leave table Friendly helpful staff
Great service from knowledgeable staff. The food quality excellent with great prices with fantastic surroundings. Overall a fabulous lunch and I will be back again
Authentic French food and good service. Set price lunch menu until early evening. Great value for a city centre restaurant. Not my first visit and it won't be the last.
Nice menu and wine list, and very good value. Staff pleasant and helpful. Two small niggles - we had to send our starter (fish soup) back as it was lukewarm, the croutons with it were a bit soggy; lemon tart was delicious but the pastry was a bit soggy. A recurring problem with the Edinburgh restaurant is the main door, it opens directly into the restaurant area, letting in a cold blast of Edinburgh weather each time customers come in or go out.
The food wasn't good. The Calamari was overdone with too much crispy coating. The char- grilled chicken wasn't char-grilled and only just cooked, the flavour of the chicken was nasty. However, the restaurant had a nice atmosphere and the staff were great.
like the way that the food is presented to you by two waiters one with a large round tray holding all the food or the table whilst the second person hands it to you. No waiting all served at the same time.
We love the place. Food is very good, staff are efficient and the price is just fine. First came across Cote in Canterbury and loved it there. We were delighted when we the manager told us there was one in Edinburgh.
Consistently great food and good service, all at a great price. It may be part of a chain but you would never know. I really can't rate this place highly enough.
Super venue,excellent food and nice friendly staff. Will return. First came across Cote in Lincoln and were impressed with service and food there so they obviously have a good recruiting policy.
Excellent food and good value. Service was excellent. Lovely atmosphere, you could almost be sitting in a real French bistro in Paris. I will definitely be back
very friendly staff and great food. staff managed the balance between attentive and intrusive really well. a great night. will definitely go back. looking forward to.our next visit.
Delicious food. Service pretty good. Plenty of choices on menu The ambience on the whole was good although the restaurant was a bit too noisy for our taste
The menu was varied and the food was very good. Our waiter was most helpful, pleasant and efficient. A most enjoyable lunch at a reasonable price.
We had a lovely breakfast with friends at Cote Brasserie. The staff were very welcoming and fun friendly and the food was delicious! Will be back again for dinner!
My friends and I had a wonderful dinner yesterday evening; the food was fabulous, the service exceptional and the ambience of the restaurant first class. I have been to Cote Brasserie twice before and each experience has been as good as the next one. It was however one of my friend's first time there - and she loved it and will definitely be back again!
Lovely food , very authenticity French . The ambiance was good and the staff were very pleasant and helpful . Would highly recommend Cote Brasserie .
Staff were wonderful, so friendly, nothing was a problem. Really pleasant setting, tables and not to close together and food is gorgeous as well. Would highly recommend.
FIRST TIME AT COTES AND THE FOOD AND SERVICE WAS EXCELLENT, WILL DEFINATELY BE BACK AS THE PRICES ARE VERY REASONABLE FOR THIS PART OF TOWN
I have eaten here several times in the last few months. As always, staff very kind and helpful, food delicious and good atmosphere. Have recommended to lots of family and friends.
This was our fifth visit to Cote and each time the quality of our meal deteriorates . A sixth visit therefore is very questionable. Very disappointing.

Excellent food and very attentive service without being intrusive. The restaurant has a good atmosphere and the lunch and early evening meal is extremely good value.
Friendly staff & delicious food. Plenty of space & a relaxed atmosphere. Good selection of dishes & really excellent chocolate fondant pudding. We'll definitely go back again.
Very nice restaurant which is part of a national chain, fixed price dinner is very good value for money and quality was very good. Breakfast possibly not as good value, but again quality and choice was excellent. Service very good, but do not agree with 12.5% service charge being added to bill even if it is discretionary. would have been a 5, but for service charge!!!!!
As usual my visit to,Cote was good, lovely food and very friendly and efficient staff . The atmosphere in the restaurant is pleasant as are the surroundings.
I have been here only twice but on each occasion I have been overwhelmed by the knowledgeable staff and the sublime food. We chose from the 10 year anniversary menu which was well balanced and the wine list substantial, I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. I will be returning soon. Carol Clague
The quality of the meal was top notch and the staff couldn't have been more helpful and charming. Excellent value for money and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone.
My husband had the a la carte menu and I liked what was on the set menu and I can honestly say all our courses were excellent and very flavoursome. The staff were lovely and we will definitely be back.
Fantastic atmosphere,lovely food and very nice staff. I have coeliacs so going out for dinner can be scary sometimes but they had a great gluten free menu and very understanding staff. Will be back soon!
Good service and food good. On the negative I felt we were a bit cramped in terms of space. This needs to be reviewed. Also menu choice good.
Had a lovely brunch in Cotes. Breakfast was cooked beautifully and great lovely atmosphere in the morning, not too busy. Breakfast was a good value for money. Been going to cotes since its opened. Great place for Brunch, Lunch, and Dinner or even just for a casual drinking.
Friendly service, in nice surroundings with a good atmosphere. Good varied menu, reasonably priced. This was my third visit here with friends and we would all come back again.
Food very good. Staff very friendly and efficient. Ambience--due to the shape of the restaurant there tends to be a lot of movement by staff and customers up the centre aisle, but not too intrusive.
Excellent service, very friendly and efficient staff. Our party of two rated the food very highly; everything was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. We will definitely be back and will recommend you to others.
I have been a frequent visitor to Cote Edinburgh and today was not quite as good as usual. My friend and I went for the 2 course lunch. Overall I would say that it was tasty but too highly seasoned. I like highly flavoured food but would say that it would not suit a lot of people. My friend chose the melon as starter and it was very underripe. She only ate half of it. We were sitting at the front of the restaurant and were disturbed by the door frequently being banged.
Excellent lunch on Good Friday on fixed April menu. Choice varied and food cooked & served to a high standard. Great value & helpful staff.
We went for the set menu which is extremely good value. good service and decently priced drinks in a convivial but genteel environment. defonirely recommend as good local restaurant.
Nice atmosphere, average French bistro food. Very friendly chatty staff. Formulaic feel to the set up so you can tell it's a chain. House white very good.
We had a lovely lunch with friends today. The food was of a high standard and the staff very friendly and helpful. I was also taking advantage of a birthday treat from Cote and we all had complimentary kir royal which was a bonus. We will definitely be back.
Great breakfast and service at Cote Edinburgh as always. Good value, tasty food and nice ambience. Would recommend and go back again. Lovely coffee too,
Although we enjoyed the food the service was poor. We asked for a few extra minutes to choose then had to attract server's attention 20 minutes later to order. We said 3 times that our Mum was cold before a/c was turned down. A long time between courses being served and had to remind about vegetables. Saw the server then appear to order them so arrived when we had eaten more than half of our mains. Don't like the way service charge is added as felt obliged to pay it despite being unhappy.
Service was excellent and special promotion lovely. Choice of food was also excellent. My husband thought the cod goujons were tasteless, my meal was good.
We like the ambience space, and service. Generally we are accommodated with a table that fits in with our requirements. The food as always is of good standard and I particularly enjoyed the scallops from the April specials.
Overall very pleased. Food very good, staff friendly. Good atmosphere. Only criticism would be that we waited a while for our order to be taken.
Staff could not have been nicer or more professional. Food was nicely prepared and well presented. Cote is probably my favourite chain and they have a wide range of gluten free dishes for those who need them.
Very pleasant staff and well-presented delicious food. The white house wine is very pleasant . Real cloth napkins add to the whole experience and we will definitely be back.
My friend and I shared some olives and a garlic bread starter. We both had the steak frites. Shared a bottle of Côte de Rhone. Food and drink were delicious. Service was great also. Not overly attentive but we felt very taken care of. Excellent value for money too!
Great food and service !! All three of us had a very nice meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and will certainly visit again 👍
Delicious food & attentive service. The duck was wonderful & my companions fish stew smelled so good. Great food at a good price. Highly recommend
