Thank you so much for making my husband's birthday lunch so special. From the moment we arrived with complimentary birthday kir royales to when we left with a complimentary creme caramel for the birthday boy the food, service and atmosphere was wonderful. Thank you so much - we will be back

Usual good standard of food and service, and special thanks to our usual cheerful & attentive waitress from Hebden Bridge - you know who you are! Noise levels OK this visit - no overly intrusive music. Aircon was a bit overcon where I was sitting - a bit draughty. No complaints otherwise. A nice relaxed dining experience in a restaurant to which I keep returning.

Having visited cote in London, Liverpool, Hale and Manchester. We have always preferred the Manchester Cote even though our offers come from the Liverpool branch. On our visit today we were slightly disappointed. We always order the same menu, but didn't realise there were two steaks on the lunchtime menu. So when our Server asked us how we would like the steaks, medium, rare or well done, we were slightly confused as we always have the steak frites. and have never been asked that before as we remarked to our server. When the steaks arrived we were disappointed and thought we would mention it to our server Jennifer, who could Not have done more to help us, she immediately got the meals changed, but by this time we had eaten most of the first meal, and did not want to cause any upset to her as she was absolutely fantastic. I always have the peppercorn sauce but it was very watery, and the steaks weren't the best. I never like leaving a bad review as cote in Manchester has always been one of our favourite restaurants.

The surroundings were very smart and the staff professionally attentive but I'm afraid some of the food was not up to the standard I've come to expect from my fairly frequent visits to Cote branches. My friend, who had not been to a Cote before, was served up very dry chicken from the more expensive menu. It looked (and when I tasted it) as though it had been around for a while and then reheated. We expressed our disatisfaction and were each offered a desert. We declined but did accept a complimentary coffee. I suspect my friend, who lives in Cheshire, will not dine there again.

This Cote is similar to all Cotes which provide consistently good food and service is delivered in a cheerful and helpful way. However, this particular branch seemed extraordinarily noisy.

Food and service were very good, as usual, but two issues: We had the “premium” set menu but you charged the a la carte price for a dessert (ice cream) that featured on the “standard” set menu; The service charge is too high at 12.5%.

Always reliable. Always good value. Consistently good food. This restaurant is my go-to for a relaxed lunch, pre-theatre meal, or even an evening out because of it's location & accesibility.

Once again a wonderful meal with outstanding service. From the entrance hello and a choice of near the door tables,as I’d asked for, and food that could of come from 5 star restaurants we couldn’t of asked for anything more for our son and his girlfriends b/day celebration. The ambiance of a Tuesday night, not too quiet but just right, was great. The large noise group, out of the way at the back, to a few smaller tables near the front where we could see all the gorgeous different meals being servered. The guys had 2 types of steak, perfectly cooked with delicious veg and of course extra French beans. Us girls enjoyed the tastey belly pork with perfect cracking. Then Birthday deserts such a fabulous surprise with Happy Birthday song!! Thank you Cote definitely see you soon. Your staff are a wonderful well mannered group of individuals who give such good service and always there only when needed. Such a memorable meal.

The food was great - apart from the chicken breast. I have eaten at Côte many, many times and have never had a meal which was anything other than delicious. However the chicken breast today was absolutely tasteless. I could have made it myself at home in 20 minutes. The tuna starter was delicious and the creme caramel was really lovely. The chicken breast was rubbish.

Food and wine very good. Service very good. Loud humming noise (from an extractor fan?) spoilt what would have been a pleasant dining experience. Then hit with a 12.5% service charge automatically included on the bill. We did not ask for it to be removed but it further took the edge off our evening.

Steaks are excellent as are the staff who are very welcoming. Nothing too much trouble for them. It is not a huge place but that is one of its advantages. Staff will order taxis if needed which park directly outside. Would highly recommend it.

We had the deluxe pre-theatre menu. First course was excellent. Mains were nice but, we felt, a little overcooked. Wine by the glass was good. No sweets but coffee and tea were good. Service and ambience were good. Overall bill of £56 including service was,we thought, reasonable.
