Côte Brighton restaurant

Really lovely outdoor courtyard and very friendly staff. The food was very good too and as ever with cote all good value for money. Slight delays in service and a couple of dishes a bit overcooked was all that stops this from being a 6.

Great food. Great atmosphere. Great service. They also have a lovely terrace if the weather is fine. All Cote restaurants are good and are excellent value for money.

I have been to quite a few cites across the uk and this is the best cote in the whole of England. The staff and food are fantastic.

Just great- table not quite ready but waited outside in the sun with excellent service for drinks. Table superb in the window as requested. Food excellent (Rib-eye steak) . Service spot on, in all made it a very enjoyable night with friends. Thank you

Great atmosphere even on a Tuesday lunchtime. with excellent food and very good service. We are never disappointed. Have also been to the Chichester and Stratford restaurants and they are both as good. Would highly recommend.

As usual the service was efficient and the food great. A friend had to gave dairy free food and they adjusted a meal for her. That's good customer care.

Great food, great service and great wine. We had the early bird menu and it was fantastic value for money and such high quality. Highly recommend!

Good relaxed atmoshere. Portion size fine for light diners (we usually are going to a show/concert) Fond of the chicken being succulent Extra veg pricey.

Although our previous experience of dinner have been very good we were both disappointed with some parts of our meal.However,having brought the specific issues to the waiter,we were impressed when, without making a fuss we were reimbursed with the cost of one of the main dishes.We would certainly go to this restaurant again,however as the quality is usually good.

Great restaurant,great service and staff. Steak was first class pity the fries were a little over cooked , should have sent them back but did not ,however did let them know.

Delicious food I can recommend the fillet steak, and the chocolate fondant was perfect, great staff excellent house wine what more can I say !?

Would have been nicer if the Steak was hotter and we were not rushed so much - felt they wanted to get rid of us as we were served food very quickly before the drinks arrived - then desert - bill took a little longer but they were clearing the table as we were putting our coats on - never been in & out so fast in my life .

We had a pre theatre meal so enjoyed a 3 course dinner for a very reasonable price! Restaurant is clean, modern and stylish and the food a very good standard. Booking on line was simple and we were expected. Service was very good too so we were happy to pay the 12.5% service which was automatically added to our bill.

Sooo hot - need to sort out some proper air con. Very noisy due to accoustics. Nice food though.... Surcharge was way too much and should not be added to bill.

Delicious food -bit over priced but service good and food excellent. I would have liked to have sat outside-however this was my first visit here and I was unaware that there was a large outside area to the back.

I took my leaders our for lunch and it was a great experience, the food was wonderful and presented very well. Our waiter was superb and very attentive.

We had some Great food and wine. We went with the set menu and what a great deal that was. Service was also very good.

The service was spectacular. Mark, the guy who served us, was wonderful. The food was brilliant. It was a fabulous experience-again. We will be back.

Buzzy restaurant. Tables are quite close together so not a place for private conversation. Food surprisingly good for a chain. Waiting staff very polite and attentive.

Fantastic restaurant, great food as ever and very helpful staff . Whenever I visit Brighton , which is regularly, I always meet up with friends at Cote as it is always superb !

Buzzy restaurant. Tasty food. Reasonably priced. Good service. Great location if you are going on to see something at the Theatre Royal or The Dome.

Fantastic evening - came for a birthday celebration. Food was lovely and staff great. Amazing singing voices especially Andrew. Thanks again, we'll be back soon.

The service at the restaurant was excellent, the staff polite and friendly. There were 7 of us in our group so we had a variety of food all of which was presented beautifully,and each dish tasted as good as it looked. I have visited several times and have never been dissapointed with my meal, will definately revisit.

The online booking system was easy to use. The service was very good. And I was particularly pleased to see that there was a vegetarian menu.

All staff members were absolutely lovely and welcoming. Took us straight into our table and looked after us throughout the entire duration. Food was brilliant and at a good price. Would definitely go again, could not fault it!

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Cote last night. Asked for a quiet table as it was very busy and got it. Food was speedily delivered and delicious. I would have given a top rating had they not forgotten to bring water - we got it when we reminded them. I'll certainly be going again.

Wonderful service; they were so attentive. The food was delicious - I had the butterfly chicken breast with mushroom sauce and potato gratin .A perfect night out!

Standards of service have improved busy today but well looked after by waiting staff .Good meal except belly pork overcooked & a little tough in parts

Consistently well priced and tasty food and good service. Always a good choice of restaurant in Brighton with a great atmosphere. Both my courses were from the 'May specials' and were excellent.

It was May Bank holiday Sunday and inevitably the restaurant was very busy. Service was generally up to our expected standard but rather slow, probably because it was busy. We had to remind the waitress twice about our wine order. However the food was excellent as usual.

Service friendly. Food tasty. Caught the set menu so affordable. Bit of a wait for main course so had to eat quickly as going to theatre.

Lovely greeting at the door, they gave us a nice table and complimentary kir royal as it was our anniversary :) food was great as usual 👌🏻

Cote Brighton always offers great value, with great food and a great service. What's not to like on a balmy May evening with great friends?

Amazing!! Love coming here it's always amazing lovely staff and great food and great value for money. Come here quiet often for this reason! Amazing

Reasonably good, but I did not enjoy this visit as much as other visits. First we were offered to be seated upstairs, it was extremely hot up there and quite dark, which would have been ok f it hasn't been v light out. They moved us as soon as I requested. Restaurant is pleasant and spacious. Downstairs we were seated right opposite the door, good as cooler but had a queque of people to our side. The service was ok but not especially attentive. The gluten free menu is good but the dish I chose, poulet grille was quite plain and there was an extra charge for a sauce, which was a nice wild mushroom and creme fraiche one, but for some reason this was just included on the ordinary menu. Desserts were good. I have enjoyed other visits more but generally like this place.

I normally have an amazing time at Cote but the place was too hot , my pudding was soggy and we had to wait ages before our order was taken. Disappointing experience.

WE HAVE BEEN LOYAL DINERS AT COTE FOR MANY YEARS - MAINLY IN BRIGHTON BUT ALSO LONDON. WE CHOOSE COTE BECAUSE THE SERVICE IS GREAT, THE PRE-THEATRE MENU IS GOOD VALUE AND THE FOOD IS CONSISTENTLY GOOD. REGRETABLY THIS COULD NOT BE SAID OF OUR LAST TWO VISITS TO BRIGHTON. THE CHICKEN (FROM THE A LA CARTE MENU) WAS VERY OVERCOOKED ON ONE OCCASION, AS WAS THE SEABASS LAST NIGHT. MY ASPARAGUS STARTER WAS ALSO TOUGH AND STRINGY. PERHAPS THERE HAS BEEN A CHANGE OF CHEF, OR WE HAVE BEEN UNLUCKY. LET'S HOPE IT'S THE LATTER!

The air-con was broken and it was extremely hot upstairs. The staff looked like they'd collapse. There were places downstairs but we weren't offered one.

Very good food and excellent service, very good prices, great atmosphere and decor, will recommend very highly, to all my friends and family, thank you

Was greeted and seated. Drinks order taken. The food order was taken following delivery of our drinks. We didn't have to wait long to be served and the bacon and egg salad we had as starter was delicious. We followed this with the chicken dish with the beans, olives and tomato. To end the meal we just enjoyed a coffee. Altogether a very enjoyable dining experience

Good food and nice service. Comfortable restaurant. Went for the set menu which portions are smaller but more than enough for lunch time 3 courses. Will go back.

I have been a fairly regular customer at this branch over the years but the last few times I have noticed the service standards are not as professional as they used to be ,it's the attention to detail that seems to have gone .The food is nearly always excellent ,although on occasions cold but this has always been rectified immediately .One thing today was the fact I paid cash for the meal & had to ask for the change & receipt ,this is not the first time this has happened .It was not a large amount but with the 12-5% service charge already on the bill change should be returned to the customer .I did have a word with the meeter & greeter /maitre d' about the service as I felt she needed to know as you may be losing customers because of little things like this .I have a table booked next week hopefully things will have improved .

All the food and the service was excellent. Would have been good to have olive oil dip with bread and olives. Otherwise, an excellent meal.

Lovely meal at Cotes on Thursday evening. Service was great - friendly and attentive. Food was delicious and the atmosphere was buzzing. We loved it!

The service was very attentive and our meals were served promptly. The onion soup was excellent but asparagus was not presented well and a little unappetizing. Creme caramel and creme brulee were lovely but it was disappointing that apple crumble could not be served with custard. The vin maison was fine.

love the food - but I had booked for a working lunch with a colleague under my name - I arrived early and was seated but when she arrived she was told I wasn't there and was seated elsewhere - I did not see her - so we were waiting for each other to arrive for 45 minutes (her phone was out of order). I think this was the restaurant's fault.

The staff were polite, cheerful and helpful and the food was superb. Two small points that dropped the score from 6 to 5, and those were 1) there was quite a wait between courses, which we could understand for the main course, as it was all freshly cooked and beautiful, but the dessert was a pre-prepared one, and could have been with us within minutes, especially as the restaurant was by no means full; and 2) there was a service charge on the bill, which we were quite happy to pay, as the staff had all been very good, but we would like to have had the choice of how much to reward them.

It was bloody good. Steak cooked to perfection. The boys serving were so helpful. The wine was good. Alas there bread sold out. The restaurant is so regal like an old fashioned bank.

We had rare steak, 1 was more like blue steak than rare so has to be sent back, but the staff were so understanding and helpful, they even gave us some discount on the meal without us asking, we loved the both steaks and had a great time!

My wife and I were treating my sister and brother-in-law on their 40th wedding anniversary and we were hoping our visit to Cote would be suitably special and memorable. Happily, our expectations were met in lots of ways. The enthusiastic welcome, and attentive service throughout our stay, meant we could concentrate on enjoying our food and conversation. All of us were impressed by the quality of our individual menu choices which were not only delicious but also presented with care and flair. If I had to point to one downside it was that the first pouting of white wine was not as chilled as it should have been. However, it arrived at the table with an ice bucket, which meant that subsequent pourings were fine. Altogether a really pleasurable experience.
