Kept waiting when we arrived and it took a time to get served a drink, but once we were under way, things improved! Waiter was excellent and knowledgeable and the steak was delicious. Good wine list at good prices.

Lovely evening celebrating my Mums Birthday. We chose Cote's as she is a regular diner and in her words has 'never had a bad meal'. We were given a table by the window which I requested on line.. We ate from the set menu, food was lovely and the portion sizes very generous. Staff were attentive and friendly and even bought a pudding with a candle in it for my Mum! Cote's did not disappoint, will be back again!

Good atmosphere, very good quality of food. Service very slow. Left us sitting there with our empty plates for at least half an hour, we had to ask for the desert menu and to pay the bill.

Excellent all round. Fresh, delicious food, perfectly cooked and promptly served. The Chateau des Gravieres Bordeaux was to die for. One quibble...I would have preferred the coffee to be served after the dessert rather than before.

Myself and my wife shared the most amazing experience in the cote brasserie reading. The venue was romantic and the staff were so incredibly helpful and pleasant and nothing was too much effort. The food was delicious and incredibly affordable as we both ate from the set menu. We will both be recommending this venue to our friends and will hope to meet you all soon.

Tasteless September special rabbit terrine Delicious veal - medium well cooked. Thanks to advice of waiter Gluten free menu is good with lots of options. Bit of a struggle to get understood about reservations for one initially - told they thought it was maybe for 10! Please stop discriminating single diners. Bit awks. Dining on an evening where an event was happening nearby- staff clueless- I guess that explains their incredulous opinion about a payof 1 making resu!

Very nice welcome. Service was excellent, efficient and friendly. Good choice of options on set menus as well as A la carte. Really nice that every month have different specials. A great vegetarian menu also with varied dishes so was a pleasure to take a vegetarian friend here. Food cooked and presented very well. Lovely hot plates unlike some other places so food stay warm while enjoying. Overall a very relaxing experience and good value for money!

Good food and good service but the thing i don’t agree of the extra charge that Waco on! They say it’s a tip but it’s 12.5 percent on top of the bill 🤔 It should be your choice if you give a tip or not and most restaurants we go we give a tip but don’t like me it when they had it with out even asking you! Also when they give you water which is only tap water! When they give you a bottle of tap water it fills about 2 glasses up and it’s like they are doing you a favour which is wrong. The main read we go back is the food is good and the lady manager and man manager are so good and very good at there Job. At to put this just to say how it is.

Overall, very good to excellent. Our waiter, a Greek gentleman called Angelos, spared no effort to make us feel comfortable. He was attentive without being obtrusive, and had an easy, good-humoured courtesy that struck just the right note. The food and drink (duck pâté || gazpacho; pan-roasted haddock || piolet grillé; no dessert or coffee; La Mortuacienne lemonade, still water, and Perrier water to drink) were just what was needed, and left us feeling comfortably full. All in all, a little gem of a place.
