We had a nice early Valentine’s Day meal. I was a little disappointed that the pork dish I was going to order for my main course was unavailable. My starter, the mushroom feuilette,was tasty but there weren’t enough mushrooms to balance all the pastry. There was an unpleasant noise throughout our meal but the manager did say that it was the fridge which was being fixed the following day and she apologised.

You can always rely on Côte to serve fine food with fine service. The position of their restaurant never disappoints either. A very good lunch.

Good service. We ordered the two course set menu but were a little disappointed with the quality of the vegetable risotto as it was rather thick and stodgy. We both left half of it and were not asked anything by the staff when they cleared the plates or when we paid our bill.

Cote is a reliable and consistent venue,convenient for the Trinity theatre. Pre-theatre is a busy time and it is necessary to book to avoid disappointment. Service was a little slow but the staff were doing their best to accommodate all the diners.

Service was slow last night yet the restaurant wasn’t full. Not much attention from staff, even when my son knocked his full glass off (our table was near the staff station), no one noticed as all gathered talking. Had to ask for more napkins as none given as replacement after we used ours to mop up the spilled glass. Roquefort salad had hardly any Roquefort in it, we had to ask for some extra which is the second time at this place. Food otherwise nice and a good spot before heading to panto. The free kir royale was nice and the kids liked their kids menu.

We had lunch at the Cote last week and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The Food was excellent, well presented and served by waiters who were very adept at their table protocol. Neat, not intrusive yet attentive. The only downside is that it is rather noisy as the floors are of Tile or wood and when it is very busy as it was when we were there the noise reached a high pitch. having said that it did not detract from our experience. we are after all in our mid 80's and therefore noise is more of an issue. We have been before and we shall return, the location is just perfect for us within walking distance of the shops and Parking.

The food was beautiful, we had the sea bass which was cooked beautifully and filleted, the rest of us had steaks as main, all cooked differently as requested, medium was perfectly pink all the way through, and hot. Starters were larger than expected, and the chocolate deserts were delicious, very chocolatey. Pancake desert was really good. The drinks were great, restaurant was clean and inviting, nice atmosphere with attentive staff all in all, very impressed with the food.
