Very nice - a great value prix fixe, all food excellent and lovely wine. Just a bit noisy - so many hard surfaces for the babble of diners to bounce off.

Really tasty food. The early evening menu has a good range and is excellent value. The Brighton restaurant is in a beautiful high ceilinged building. It is well placed for a pre concert dinner as it is close to The Dome and Theatre Royal. We will definitely be back.

Restaurant was very busy on Mothers Day.# Disappointed with my chicken dish, it was very dry. My daughter's seafood main was full of bones. What a shame!

Our French waitress was excellent and really charming. The food was delicious and we loved being able to enjoy the sunshine outside. I think the wine is too expensive though.

We had booked and were seated in the area we asked for which was lovely. The waitress and manager (lady too) were very polite and efficient. The starter was served quickly as were the drinks and were delicious! We tried cod this time and it was very tasty and light. We then had apple tart desert with coffee, very good too! We managed to have an all around excellent meal all in time to enjoy the performance at the Theatre Royal afterwards. Very happy customers and we look forward to coming back soon :-) Thank you !

The service was not as excellent, as usual. The food was brilliant and very tasty. The restaurant was busy, but not overly, so that the service personell should have been more observant to our needs. We had a 3 course meal and wanted a coffee after, but the waiter just came to ask, if we wanted the bill, when we tried to get his attention.

lovely food and some waiters were so helpful however other staff not so much. Also out of mussels, crab and tuna so for someone who is not a meat fan it was slightly annoying but not their fault.

we went for breakfast and I had smoked salmon and perfect scrambled eggs with chives. The restaurant was not full and the service was frindly and quick. I love this high ceilinged room and we come here regularly as it is generally a reliable standard of cooking and service.

We had a lovely meal in the upstairs part of the restaurant. One of our main courses was wrong but the waiter ordered the right dish straightaway and took the dish from the bill. Although the restaurant was busy there was no attempt to get us to leave.

Great food and service, although it did take a bit of convincing to get our preferred table location. Air conditioning was blasting, so food quickly got cold, had to eat too fast.

Stylish decor. Friendly attentive waiting staff. Gluten and dairy free, no problem at all. Lovely food, hot and cooked to perfection. I do like the filtered water in stylish flagons, drink as much as you like. My partner said his wine was good quality. A very peaceful experience.

It's a lovely restaurant in a good location. The food was good, however I found the cod goujons tasteless. There also isn't a separate allergen menu so there was a limited menu for me to choose from. Overall a good restaurant and I would recommend it.

Great lunch place and great food, however, I was meeting someone and as we both arrived separately, we were also seated separately for 15 minutes until the staff realised that we were waiting for each other - a better mechanism for ensuring 'matching'. Unusually it took ages to have food order to be taken so it was 45 minutes before we actually started our lunch... This time rated 4, previously much higher.

The food was lovely, service also good. Unfortunately, there was a very raucous hen party of 20 women in the restaurant sitting right next to us. The waitress offered to move us in between courses, but we declined as the hen party was impacting on the whole of the restaurant, so moving would have been pointless. The hen party were making some of the staff feel on edge, and their behaviour would have been more appropriate in a different setting. When I think of Cote, I don't imagine it's ok to stand on the table.

Service busy 25 min to wait for a waitress to be served, veal uncooked sent back in to kitchen...came back and got derved the same piece still not cooked properly. The staff try to sort out the problem and acted well where shocked the kitchen sentvsame meat out. They did take it off the bill but the damage for the group to eat nicely together was already done.

The great thing about Cote is that you get exactly what you expect to get. The menu has just the right selection and variety of dishes to meet any palate and culinary need. The food is always well prepared and hot. The staff always attentive without being overly so. Its a great place to take friends, knowing there will be something on the menu they will want to eat and it will arrive perfectly prepared with the minimum of fuss. Perfect.
