As someone with a long list of food intolerances, eating out is normally quite a stressful experience for me. Our french waitress, Rachel, made the whole process stress-free and was extremely accommodating and courteous. I enjoyed a starter and a main course - a rare occurrence as starters are usually particularly difficult. The rhubarb martini was delicious! Although the restaurant was packed the service was quick and very attentive.

For how busy it was it was very good! Food perfect as usual. Shame about loud people in the restaurant but that’s not the establishments fault.

Slow service. Had to ask after 15 minutes to place my order having already been asked if I was going to the theatre. Small portion of monkfish for the price. Tiger prawn salad delicious but very garlicky.

We came for a birthday meal (using the birthday offer when booking). As always the food was excellent but unlike this cote in Brighton the service was slow even though the restaurant was not too busy. Furthermore, we did not get the complimentary kir royal offer on arrival and had to ask for it. We were then billed for them! It put a bit of a damper on my birthday celebration.

Yet again another disappointing experience at Cote Brighton. My salmon was cold and my friend's risotto was so overcooked it was basically mush. The server took one of the meals and some of the drinks off the bill but unfortunately, this being the second time this has happened in recent weeks, this restaurant has now fallen off our list of places to take our clients.

The overall experience was good, service as always excellent and ambience great. Our pan roasted pork tenderloins were excellent, being both tasty and tender, extra jus provided on request with no quibbles. The side of creamed spinach was rejected as it had an overpowering (bewildering) flavour of aniseed and the two flavours just did not gel. I liked my gratin potatoes but my husband found them too cheesy. However, the worst thing was that we did not enjoy the free bottle of wine at all. It was as thin and nasty a bottle of plonk as we've had the misfortune to experience. If you are going to offer something "free", make it worth having otherwise it feels like a come on to get you through the door. Very short-sighted of whoever is in charge of buying. You can get a half decent bottle of wine from your local supermarket for not very much; you don't expect a French restaurant to offer such a poor quality wine. We didn't say anything at the time as we would have been embarrassed about complaining, but perhaps we should have overcome our feelings.

Table wasn’t set when we sat down and it took a good ten minutes before the waitress came to do it. Then we had to ask for water, salt and pepper. Service is normally v good there so this was disappointing. Fish parmentier was very dry. Staff missed a trick by not suggesting any side orders or coming back to see if we wanted more drinks. Very noisy upstairs and down. Overall, not great.

I love cote eat here all the time with my partner but unfortunately last visit was pretty poor. We waited 30 minutes to have our order taken and then one of our meals didn’t arrive at all. I’m sure it was just a one off as al our previous visits have been superb but on this occasion not great

As a coeliac it was brilliant to have a menu printed with all the gluten-free options available, rather than having to pick through the entire menu and repeatedly question a member of staff. It was a theatre night when we visited and Cote was extremely busy, but staff were very efficient, the food was served in a good time and was very good. The drinks were not quite up to scratch - a request for two campari and tonics resulted in something else being supplied (they don't stock campari) and the alternatives, Kir Royale, were distinctly short of Kir. But overall, it was a very nice meal.

Staff very friendly and food excellent. Bizarrely, the only slight mark down I would give is that the food comes out too quickly which makes the whole enjoyment of sitting down for a leisurely meal end too soon. We were not rushed by the staff or made to feel rushed......but it was all over in an hour.
