Helpful, efficient staff. Great choice of authentic French food at moderate prices. Much calmer, classier atmosphere than most of George St., but it gets very full - make sure you book!

We used the website tool to book a table in advance. On arrival we received prompt service from friendly staff. The seafood linguine and moules starters are recommended. The Set menu offers good value.

Rather crowded restaurant! 2 steaks we ordered were rather overdone . Very busy today but Côte usually spit on with food and service . A bit disappointing.

Excellent food and very easily priced. The set menu is especially good value. Service is quick and friendly. The only downside is that the restaurant gets very noisy when full, making conversation difficult.

Food and service was very good - nothing to fault with that. Only small grumble was that we went in at the beginning of a popular eating time and the noise levels were pretty high, and very little privacy.

Really nice atmosphere, super fast service and delicious food. We were really happy with everything we ordered and as one plate was taken away it was replaced with the next course. If there are any criticisms at all, it would only be that the service was so fast we didn't properly relax into conversation like we usually do going out for dinner and they add 12.5% tip to the bi automatically - we usually pay a tip anyway but it might make some people uncomfortable that they can't choose their own tip unless they want to have an awkward confrontation with a waiter to ask them to take it off. Otherwise will definitely come back!

Great restaurant, usually very consistent but tonight they brought me out the wrong main. They were very apologetic, but I did have to watch my wife eat most of her meal before my correct main arrived. Bit disappointed, but I did get fed in the end!

Warm welcoming atmosphere with an excellent menu. The French onion soup is wonderful. Thoroughly recommend the March specials of steak au poivre and grilled swordfish with tarte tatin to finish.

We have been to Cote Brasserie on several occasions and have always received excellent service and fine food. The staff are very attentive without being over-bearing and the atmosphere, without background music, is enjoyable. Excellent Gluten-free menu for those who need it for health reasons. Will definitely book a return visit.

Been there twice now. Very good food and service. Don't know if there are disabled toilets, but is a poor place for accessibility generally, which leads me to the other point. It is so very popular and always busy, but everyone in there is cheek by jowl as tables are so close together and crammed in.

It was very busy but the staff served us promptly and pleasantly. The food, when it arrived, was hot, well presented and cooked perfectly, particularly my seafood pasta; the mussels, prawns and clams were all juicy. Excellent service all round.

We went out to celebrate my wife birthday, they picked up on this and treated us very well for our visit. The food was very good and we had many of the specials. They provide a chocolate pudding for us to share for her birthday. Very happy with our visit and would recommend Cote to everybody.
