Went for a pre theatre dinner with friends. Food came quickly and staff were friendly. Good atmosphere and great value for money. Beetroot starter disappointing but calamari and steak and frites were tasty. Lovely creme caramel to finish with. All plates clean!

As ever the food is amazing and service level pretty good for a busy restaurant in the centre of town. Tiny niggle was that no one checked with us after dessert and we therefore waited a while to order coffee, no biggie but constructive feedback :-)

The restaurant gets very busy, but you can still lose yourself in at your own little table. The wait staff are amazing and regularly check on you, asking how things are, pouring more wine. Everyone is friendly and welcoming and the food is delicious.

Food well presented. Staff attentive. Bit noisy but expected. Not sure about the 12.5% added gratuity, even if it does go straight to the staff.

Food was good, but mains served before we had finished starters. A kechup stain on the edge of the table which I requested be removed was subsequently not removed. Service pleasant and - apart from the above - efficient. Was given the window seat I had enquired about days earlier, albeit not guaranteed.

A really enjoyable evening, with branches in many areas it's a great place to meet up with friends, each one maintains the same excellent standard. You can depend on Cote for great atmosphere and excellent food with the added bonus of service that hits the right note, friendly, efficient without being overbearing. The wines are well priced too. Over the past few years Cote has always been my first choice!

The Brighton restaurant is very centrally located. I love the ambiance - lots of lovely atmospheric lighting and very well laid out. My friend and I enjoyed our meal from the set menu, which had plenty of choice and everything was well cooked. My friend loved her sea bass and I enjoyed my butternut squash risotto. Service was attentive, considering the restaurant was very busy and overall we had a great time.

We were met at the door and shown to our table by friendly staff. There was an excellent choice of dishes on the menu and wine list. This was a pre theatre meal so time was important. Our order was taken and the food was brought to our table promptly, but without rushing. The staff were very pleasant and attentive. The food and win was excellent. All in all a very good start to a perfect evening.

A visit to the Cote Brighton is always enjoyable. The atmosphere is buzzing and the waiting staff friendly and efficient. On this occasion myself and my friends chose from the set menu. The food was good but in no way exceptional. I chose the plaice with leeks. I found the fish a little under-seasoned and the leek sauce overly mushy and a bit rich for my taste. I'd have preferred a fresher tasting vegetable. One of my friends had the minute steak and complained that it was tough. Nonetheless, the meal and the very acceptable house wine was reasonably priced, and we had a good time.

Always a pleasant experience dining at Cote, brighton. The service from being greeted on entry, and being shown to your table, often with a preferred choice, and the waiting staff are always on point with their service and attendance to you though out your meal. The food, well! Has never failed to tick all the boxes, value that's never has compromised its full taste. One of the best dining experiences I always enjoy, for a lunch with friends to an evening meal before hitting the town, or the theatre!

Cote is my favourite restaurant good consistent food but unfortunately I have never enjoyed a breakfast there despite giving it a few goes. The tomatoes are always half cooked eggs invariably undercooked, soggy toast as some item put on top of it and usually not very hot apart from all that is a good deal
