The food we had last night was divine....no other word for it. I had the Pork Belly and it was utterly delicious, followed with a Creme Caramel....as I say, utterly divine. Very pleased to see you ask about noise levels and waiting time....very important aspects of dining out and more often than not overlooked.

Very poor service. We waited 15 minutes before we were able to order drinks. Having ordered a bottle of champagne (we were celebrating an event) the bottle was then brought out and left standing (not in ice) on a counter in full view for a further 7 minutes. The situation was only resolved by one of our party getting up, collecting the bottle and serving us himself. It created a stressful situation when what we wanted was an enjoyable family celebration.

An excellent and interesting choice of dishes, with great set meal deals... although in the end we went for a la carte. Food was beautifully cooked and well presented, and there were plenty of staff, although our waiter was a little over-intrusive for our taste. The restaurant has a modern feel in an historic building and the tables are reasonably well spaced.

Excellent location and the service was efficient and courteous without being intrusive. I have eaten here before and found one particular waiter to be aloof and condescending in his "service". He wasn't there this time and on this occasion I couldn't fault our waiter or any of the staff. The food was delicious and arrived piping hot and all at once. The dining experience was very pleasant and although it was a very warm evening outside, the restaurant was just the right temperature. I would eat here again and thoroughly recommend this branch of Cote.

Great food and great service as always - our favourite York eating place. Friendly, professional and efficient staff worth every penny of the service charge and the quality, variety and good value of the food is 100% consistent. Part of a chain but doesn't feel like one. Can't fault it.

Food was really nice but service wasn’t very good. It was my sisters 40th and they didn’t mention it and forgot her drink and forgot her pudding. One of the waiters gave us the wrong dessert menu for the set menu we were ordering from and then they tried to charge us extra for them. Adding 12.5% automatically is a bit steep and we chose not to pay it.

We had a late lunch (4pm) but the lunch menu was still on so we had a fantastic meal and really good value! The food was delicious and the staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. Côte York is in a great location in central old York - perfect for sight-seeing and for shopping.

Lunch with 4 old school friends, (we are all in our 70,s now). We think the menu is very good and very competetively priced with wide choice. The food is always well cooked and delicious. The staff are lovely, helpful and polite and they never bother when we stay for 2 hours eating and chatting. We are all agreed that it is about the best value in York for lunch.

Hello, service was very good and the main meal was fine, for desert I ordered the iced berries which unfortunately were almost frozen and not up to the standard I had last time, However, this would not put me off returning, I just won't order iced berries!

A very enjoyable Mother’s Day meal.We were seated at the table I requested when booking and got speedy and friendly service throughout. The food here is consistently very good and you always know that the service and atmosphere will match it.It is not cheap to eat here but you get what you pay for.

Excellent food. We love the wide choice on the menu. We had lamb rump and hake with creamed spinach as extra though not necessary unless you’re very hungry. The crème caramel is to die for. Excellent service but we went at a quiet time 6.30.

Steak was cooked very rare for a British restaurant. The chef cooked it for a bit longer without quibbling. Beware - they add a 12.5% tip to the bill without asking, which I missed before paying.

We have visited Cote several times and we are never disappointed. The food was delicious and the service was excellent! My only criticism is that vegetables are not included and although I am happy to order extra portions of veg, I would like to see at least peas included?

I had a lovely welcome to the restaurant, the service was impeccable; the staff were aware we had a time constraint due to booked trains and they did their best to service the food promptly which they did. We all enjoyed a three course meal which was delicious and was excellent value. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending this restaurant.
