Côte Salisbury

Superb food that’s bursting with favour, excellent customer service skills from Alex & his team. Alex made my birthday lunch feel so special Highly recommend

Great lunch in Cote again, great service great menu fab food at fab price.

Very attentive staff, great food, a complimentary drink for myself and my partner as it was his Birthday

Haven’t been to Cote for a very long time and thought we would give it another go. Chose the set menu. Lots of pushing from the staff for extras, do you want this, do you want that, you need sides etc. Weren’t offered a drink whilst we looked at the menus. Straight in on wanting to take our food order. Starters came before we’d finished the olives we felt we had to have and within a very short space of time. Mains arrived practically as the starters were cleared away. We declined the offer of dessert which was again offered immediately - we may have had some had we not been rushed through the other two courses. It then took 20 mins to attract someone to bring us the bill and and then pay. Service charge was added to the bill. No I didn’t want to pay it. We were served by several different people, all polite enough but far from attentive and engaging. Felt I couldn’t ask for the service charge to be removed when asked ‘is the bill ok for you’ felt more of a challenge than a genuine questions. So a early evening supper set menu ended up costing £15 more than expected due to the persuaded extras and service charge. Probably won’t be rushing back.

My daughter and I had a delicious lunch at Cote today, we had French onion soup, duck pate then we both had the poulet grille. Many thanks for the surprise welcome drink for my daughter's birthday!

Delicious lunch. Very attentive and friendly efficient waiter. The food was absolutely delicious and first class very well done.

We visited with our family for our son’s birthday. It was a good experience-food, & ambience were good and the staff were attentive & friendly.

The food was good as was the service however I think you should ask if the customer wants to have a service charge added. I prefer to give cash as I can't be sure that the charge will be passed on to staff. Also by paying cash the will not be taxed on their tips

Always delighted with the high standard of cuisine and service.

Epic staff!!! Perfect service, great atmosphere and most importantly superb food.

This was my third booking at Cote Salisbury in six weeks. We went as a couple for my husband’s birthday The food was very good as usual except for a couple of pieces of dry toasted gluten free bread for which I was charged £1.85. Our meal was interrupted while we were eating our main course by the staff noisily moving a table from the other side of the room to add to two tables next to us to make a table for seven with four place settings along from my husband on the banquette. As the seven guests arrived it was very clear that there was not going to going to be enough room for four people to sit comfortably on the banquette. The four ladies squeezed through the space between the tables and the ones on the opposite side also came through to put their coats on the back of the banquette. This really disrupted our meal as they were very close to us and had no way to get to their seats other than to squeeze past us. We really felt we had to get up and go as the diners on the next table kept staring at us. If I had been them I would have been thinking they would get our table as it was the obvious thing to do. I tried explaining this to the man who took my payment but he was completely uninterested and dismissive of my complaint which was caused by the staff’s actions in trying to squeeze as many people in as possible. I would rather not have paid the service charge but I did not want to argue with the man who took my money - his attitude alone was enough to make me prefer not to pay the gratuity. Getting your meal in relative peace is what I expect and should be part of the service.

A superb birthday treat to have a well cooked English breakfast. Using the Formule, it provides excellent value too.

Food good as always. Our waitress was a bit offhand, perhaps an off day but not bad enough to complain personally but made me wonder about the built in service charge.

The waitress who served us needs training, she appeared to dislike her job. Quite a few bones in the fish dish unfortunately.

Always good quality food at reasonable price on 2/3 course fixed price with reasonable range of choices

A great place for a relaxing lunch in the centre of Salisbury

Fab... as always! Lovely staff, great food. Nice wine! Excellent

Excellent, friendly and attentive service. Delicious menu choice. Nice atmosphere. Great reliable choice for a meal out in Salisbury. Will definitely return.

Ambience wonderful, food delightful and staff friendly and competent. We had a lovely time as always.

I always enjoy a visit to Cote in Salisbury. The staff are unfailingly pleasant and efficient, and I have never been served a disappointing meal.

As a regular user of Cotê no surprises, food as always perfect , December scallop dish particularly good Service very slow yesterday considering restaurant not too busy

Seven ladies on a day out, arrived 1.5 hours early for our booked table (it was cold and we had been on our feet for hours). No problem. Table ready in a few minutes, lovely food, charming friendly staff. Slight problem with pre-order but sorted very quickly. Côte HO you need to make the online pre-order form able to access the gluten-free options. Certainly the Christmas menu does not allow this hence our slight hitch but it was handled well.

I had a lovely 😊 meal 🥘 & the service was excellent!!

Delicious food, great atmosphere and excellent service. The waitress dessert recommendation was a winner. Thank you!

Another great meal before going to see Robin Hood at the Playhouse. I had been wanting to try Cote's take on Tournedos Rossini since it was added to the menu and although it was a little way away from the real thing it was a very good interpretation and my piece of fillet was exceptional and cooked just to my liking. Using Duck Liver Pate instead of a sliver of Foie Gras is risky due to issues with texture and crumbing of the pate as it gets a little more cooking but I really enjoyed the dish. The kitchen needs to ensure that plates are hot to begin with in view of the long journey across Salisbury from the kitchen. Loved our Kir Royale also but the Creme de Cassis bottle must be running out either that or the bottle is only looking at the Sparkling Wine. Theo looked after us on this occasion and what a great job he did as did the entire team who work hard to ensure we continue to love Cote Salisbury.

We had a lovely meal, great choices available on the set menu and really friendly staff. Our waitress in particular was welcoming and attentive.

Amazing as always, very well looked after. Food interesting and really good quality. Great ambience, lovely evening.

Enjoyable but rather cramped, perhaps. Food up to usual high standard. Waitress very good. I don’t think this written bit should be compulsory.

Great food and ambience. Most waiting staff were excellent but one in particular was a little annoying. He asked us 3 times if we wanted another bottle of wine. Maybe a little fine tuning needed on his willingness to please (too hard)

Good company, fine food, excellent service, great evening for all.

Extremely enjoyable meal, Breton fish stew and Cassoulet fantastic. Staff were exceptional, will definitely be back.

I regularly go to Cote in Exeter with friends ( they book) and I have to say the service in Salisbury was better.

I've been many times before. Just felt a little bit hemmed in by nearest tables today/ I don't know if that was because they had squeezed extra tables in at a busy time, or if I'd just not sat in that exact spot before.

Very nice experience. Food was lovely and nicely served in a timely way.

Overall this has to be our most favourite place to eat in Salisbury we try to come twice a month and to date we have not had a bad meal or experience, the staff are exceptionally tentative and we do recommend Cote Brasserie to everyone

Lovely early supper especially as we then had time to look round the Christmas market - very festive with all the lights

amazing service and the breakfast was first class, eggs benedict amazing, crepe complet amazing, service amazing.

Really nice meal with attentive staff. Booked online less than 30 minutes beforehand as a last minute treat

Good food, excellent staff, knowledgeable and very efficient waitress. An enjoyable lunch.

Good company, excellent food, great atmosphere supported by an efficient service created a wonderful evening.

Lovely servers and great food but noisy. Would however go again

Our waitress was excellent !!! it was very busy and everything was beautifully timed - children very happy and dinner was absolutely gorgeous -

Great experience - friendly and helpful waiting staff, good food, nice restaurant atmosphere.

Very pleasant staff. A bit noisy because very busy. Food good value for money as always but mussels served with Sea Bass were cold! I rather object to 12.5% being automtically added on to the bill for service. If the service is good, as it should be, I will reward it.

Very pleasant Saturday lunch. Busy vibrant atmosphere. Great service. Completely satisfied with visit.

Busy place so noisy. However, food and service were good. As usual, the wine was not chilled enough and the fougasse was not as good as usual either but all in all, it was OK.

Always the best place to start the day. Quality breakfast

We enjoyed our meal as always. Our only suggestion is that maybe they could have a separate area for families with kids.
