Fantastic food, and value for money. Waiters need to relax a bit. When they are rushing around, there is a feeling of hurry-ness. But overall a very satisfied, and we look forward to our next visit.

Location is good. Booking with Quandoo works smoothly. Friendly greeting on arrival, is followed by flawless service and range of carefully chosen food served unobtrusively but efficiently with personal service. Several visits, both lunchtime and evening show a consistently high standard at a reasonable cost. Highly recommended.

This was the 4th time of visiting Cote in Brighton and 2nd time for a more business meal rather than personal. however ambience, staff and more importantly the food was as good as ever. Always a place to recommend for both friends and to business colleagues.

Excellent experience at Côte Brighton. There was a warm welcome at the door and we were quickly taken to our table. The food was at the usual high standard and the waiter was friendly and professional. Just a bit of a wait for drinks but overall a very pleasant evening.

Easy to book online. Promptly and efficiently looked after us on arrival, menus arrived snappily. Excellent, attentive staff throughout the evening. All plates were as tasty, it is a brasserie, not a Michelin starred place and everything was as good as expected, rather than trying to be a "creative new concept in blah......". Wines, by the glass, were creditably flavoursome samples of their types. Only quibble was that one desert arrived with ice cream, as opposed to the advertised crème fraiche, but this was not a disaster. More than happy to return.

Fantastic and friendly service, with complimentary kir royals on arrival. Vibrant yet intimate atmosphere with just right lighting for an evening meal. Food was gorgeous. Particularly recommend April menu's scallops as starter and perfectly cooked sea bass as main course. A great evening and a real treat!

My starter was very good but my main dish of Smoked haddock was not so good as the haddock was extrememly strong. The service was very good especially as the restaurant was really busy. My husband's meal was good. We love the atmosphere of the restaurant and generally the food is very good too.

Edward F.7 years ago · 4 reviews

The restaurant was extremely busy at 6pm. Initially we found the service to be slower than we normally experience. We waited some time from being seated to actually being able to order a drink or food. Having ordered wine we waited much longer than arriving diners around us for the wine to arrive. Then, surprise the garlic bread arrived as a starter quickly followed by the main whilst we were still eating it. You can never fault the food here and it is always busy but tonight the service didn't meet expectations.

The cote Brasserie Brighton. Very friendly staff and great well cooked food. This has become my regular first choice pick of 'restaurants' in Brighton and Hove. My recommendation is make sure you leave space for a desert as the crumble is so good! If you fancy something a little different then why not do what I do; On a warm summers day I wake early in the morning skip breakfast to take a walk along the seafront. Weave through the lanes where the shops are setting up for the day. Then finish of at Côte where I take a morning seat in the window and enjoy crepes with fruit, ice cream and a fresh cup of coffee while watching Brighton wake up for the day. Maybe if you do I will see you there, so a good morning to you. But please leave a space for me in the window. Bx
