Very busy and ideally located opposite the Dome. Very quick service. A side order was wrong and it took 15 minutes to get the right one after asking, by which time our steaks had gone cold..... but without even asking we received a discount on our bill which was a very nice touch.

As usual food and service was excellent. Unfortunately the toilet area had not been checked. Did not match up to the standard of the restaurant and there was no toilet paper. Staff were informed and it was dealt with immediately.

I have to say that we were treated to some fantastic service and wonderful food, therefore, in conclusion, I have to ask 'what's not to like'?

The restaurant always provides well-cooked food at a reasonable price and with very efficient service. It is also has an excellent early evening fixed price menu suitable for those going to the theatre or an event in the Dome.

Another mainly good lunch at the Brighton Cote. It is still good value, although my main dish had some wilted rocket which had clearly seen better days. I am glad the Dark Chocolate Pot is back to its usual recipe; on a previous visit it had turned into a rather liquidy milk chocolate mousse. Sevice excellent as always.

Always consistent quality food, reasonably priced. We tend to go for the pre-show set menu before 7pm Monday-Thursday, for additional value. Our youngest daughter objects to too much diary related items on the menu.

Fine. Very conveniently located for the Dome Concert Hall. And the Theatre Royal. Reliable, good service, fair value. Popular so can be noisy, but fine for an early evening pre-theatre supper.

Trouble was we had two 'girls out' for lunch tables directly behind us drinking bubbly. We couldn't hear each other talking. This was lunch time. Food was good as usual. Even the waitress had a job to hear our order. That's Christmas!

We were disappointed that we were not allowed to have a table where we could sit side by side so that we could communicate with each other in a noisy restaurant when we have some hearing problems. Also we both asked for the Jerusalem artichoke risotto but again were disappointed that this came without a whisper of a vegetable garnish, not even a pea shoot or two!

I am always happy to rate Cote, I think they always get it right. changing the menu regularly. & always interesting. More than fair pricing. Plus very good food with a menu that provides something for everyone. Considering that this company has been trading for quite a few years, they have never let standards slip. My big gripe with all businesses that open with a bang is that after a few months they take their customers for granted & think they have made it. This has never happened at Cote. Service is exemplary, I am never failed to be impressed. Finally I do like a buzzy restaurant & you will usually find it here. Good luck to Jules & her team. I will always be a regular.

We received a warm welcome at Cote last night. Coming in from the wind and rain, we entered a buzzy atmosphere of people enjoying themselves. There were FOUR birthdays celebrated around the restaurant while we were there! The food was as good as ever. I enjoyed the salmon and a friend found the sea bass excellent. I cannot fault Brighton Cote.

The food and overall experience was good but marred by the realisation that we were charged for olives which we had cancelled and didn't receive, and the automatic provision of the large glass of wine rather than asking which was preferred.

Good food, friendly staff, nice atmosphere. 2 points lost because I thought it a little expensive, especially as I had expected the early evening menu to apply on Sundays, and it didn't!

Sadly we did not have a very good experience at Brighton Cote. Service all over the place got starters before drinks and olives arrived. Mains took ages to come my food was warm plate almost cold. We were looked after after we complained and service recovery was very good. It would of been nice to of got it right in the first place. Ruined our Sunday lunch. Will think twice about going back.

I visit Cote regularly and they never fail on quality, service or atmosphere. I had the charcuterie board and a side order of tomatoes - wonderfully delicious! My 91 year old mother got through a plate of frites and steak and said it was delicious. Have already booked a further 2 visits
