Côte Brighton restaurant

A very enjoyable lunch, a little noisy at times, service great and value good, the steak was excellent.

Our second visit in a week, on both occasions, the food was excellent, very busy restaurant, with a nice atmosphere, front of house were very well organised and inventive, highly recommended .

We were out to celebrate my daughter-in-law having finished all her work for her degree. The food was lovely and the service was swift and attentive. Thank you for a lovely evening. Always reliable.

Wine nice Starter good Dessert good Fish slightly over cooked

The food was lovely as always. The breakfast menu is amazing value and the fixed breakfast deal is excellent value. Recommended. Will come here again.

Cote is brilliant - always very friendly, helpful and attentive service. And the food is superb; a real wide range of various meals on the menus, not too fancy and not too simple either. It's all just right! A great experience at a fabulous restaurant, with excellent value for money.

Delicious food cooked in authentic French style with lots of choice, and great service with friendly staff! Lovely atmosphere too with very good lighting and the right level of noise

Disappointing crammed in and felt like macdonalds service churning out steak and chips not restaurant experience was hoping on special ocassion.

Very nice brighton restaurant, this is by far the best French food myself and my wife like , awesome tasty food, great staff, nothing is too much bother for them they cater for every need. Thanks cote for a consistent meal everytime.

Really lovely atmosphere, very enthusiastic and nice waiters and waitresses who are happy to help. Amazing food, lovely staff and really good experience, would recommend to anyone!

Excellent food and very attentive service. An enjoyable lunch on the large outside terrace.

Best breakfast 🍳. The waiter did forget us after our order. The manager could not have done enough to apologies . We certainly be back .

Great meal , food and wine superb as always. Sadly some vibrations and noise from music was a bit of a distraction.

Staff were lovely food good cocktail delicious all very good

Really enjoyed a long Sunday lunch here. Good service, excellent food and a relaxed, friendy atmosphere. We will definitely be going back again in the near future.

Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch as we usually do. We always come back to Cote. The food and service was good. We find the ambience and surroundings relaxing.

Staff were rude about the group, they allowed a very large booking of 20 and a booking was opposite of us of 15. We were complained at regarding the noise, which was ridiculous as everyone was simply talking. food was good but what do you expect from two large bookings (separate) all talking.

Great- lovely meals, good service. Nice atmosphere , good all round service and ambiance I would like to see more veggie selection on the menu and more g free veggie

Went for lunch on a Sunday at 1pm Was quiet on arrival so service was very prompt, had Pork belly that was cooked to perfection, waiter recommended special dessert which was delicious. Even when it got busier was just a nice relaxed & happy atmosphere

A lovely evening with exceptional service, friendly staff, great food and free welcome cocktail what more could you need?!

I fucking loved it. And I had sex in the toilet

You can always rely on Cote Brasserie for great food, friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere. Not to mention the Kir Royale ...

Fries over cooked and very hard and oily, service was good very pleasant young waiter. The rest of the food was good, cocktail not my type of thing

Lovely food & lovely staff in sweet moderne decor. The ten-word minimum is gibberish.

Excellent apart from the embarrassment over the bill where we were charged for champagne instead of Blanc de Blanc! However it was sorted amicably. I would definitely go again.

Food, atmosphere and service excellent. Always enjoy my visits to Cote where I feel welcome whether in a group or as a couple. Very good value.

Wonderful food and service as usual. My fillet steak was perfectly cooked and the wine complimented perfectly. We always feel welcome and love the inclusive atmosphere in Côte in Brighton. Buzzy but not too noisy. We love this place.

Very good food and wine, pleasant and efficient service and relaxed atmosphere assisted our very enjoyable family celebration.

Very long wait and our main course came to the table before our starters. Taken away over an hour wait fir our starters and then another hour for our main course and even then only because we asked were our food was:

Normally we have an amazing meal but tonight the food was not great. I had the mushroom risotto which had no taste and was so gloopy I had to pour my drinking water into it to loosen it up to make it edible. A real let down considering we spent over £100

A pre-theatre meal which ticked the box in every way - good food in a convivial atmosphere, served promptly and excellent value. One diner was gluten-free and was particularly impressed with her food and separate processes applied too the preparation and serving of Cote's gluten-free menu.

Up to Cote Brighton’s usual standard, excellent service, excellent atmosphere and excellent food at a good price. We go to lots of shows at the dome theatre and it’s great to have such a lovely restaurant just across the road. We’d still visit if it was further away though!

We had a lovely evening relaxing in a wonderful restaurant ... It was very good value and wonderful service. the food was amazing and a good choice...highly recommend

Being that it’s festival time in Brighton and Bank Holiday weekend, Cote was packed Saturday night. Despite having booked a table at the first available time 8:15pm our show finished early. No problem, we were seated at 7:30pm. We had to wait a bit longer than usual for our mains, consequently we were given an additional 2 rhubarb martini’s to go with the ones we had on arrival. Amazingly our bill was also reduced by 50% due to our wait. Cote never fails to deliver.

My Girlfriend was worried as her steak she ordered was under cooked to how she wanted and was worried about saying but we did say something and can’t say how apologising staff were. Very understanding really was brilliant service always a place a recommend. Credit to all staff at cote.

Average all round really. Used to be much better but the service wasn’t pretty terrible and be the food was cold and had been sitting there for a while. Shame as it could and should be a lot better

I've eaten at Cote in Brighton on many occasions,& have always enjoyed it,but tonight was possibly the best overall experience I've ever had there...I'm on your mailing list,so we took advantage of your complimentary cocktail offer when dining from the A la Carte menu...I'm not a big fan of cocktails,but all four of us really enjoyed our Blood Orange Martinis,absolutely delicious!...Great service from a friendly,helpful,patient and knowledgeable waitress,who answered all of our questions and offered some great advice and suggestions...All the food we ordered was delicious,possibly the best creme caramel I've ever eaten,& I'm an ex chef who used to make them!...

Tuesday lunch time in Brighton - warm welcome efficient and attentive service

Food was great...last time I dined here which was about 10 days ago the food was over salted and I did not enjoy it all...happy this meal was better

The food was great me and family loved it. The service and the staff were amazing.

Second visit in 2 weeks complimentary gin cocktail was amazing! Service was great and food lovely a great way to celebrate our 50th birthday with friends I've known for 30 years.

Fabulous ambiance. Great service my only criticism would be that the food wasn’t very hot. Also just a little pointer the Toulouse sausage skins were like hard plastic. But overall nice restaurant.

Whenever I ask my little girl where she would like to go do a fancy dinner? The answer would always be Cote Brasserie.

Really good night. Have been coming here for years with consistent high level of service so seemed like an obvious choice for my 50th. This remains our “go to” restaurant and staff were very helpful and attentive Highly recommended !!

Dear Sirs It is with regret that the service my wife and I received was poor. on arrival we were shown to our table and the evening appeared to be starting well. Our first course followed which was enjoyable and it was from this point on that the evening went regrettably down hill. We noted that the table next to ours had received their main course even though they had arrived some 30 minutes after we had. My wife's meal followed after some time without mine. When her meal was delivered the manager then had to ask me "what had I ordered as there was a mix up in the kitchen even though it was him that took the order in the first place. My wife then asked whether the fries could be re-heated as they were very cold. The manager then took away her fries and then left her the plate of food to go cold instead of taking it back to the kitchen. At this point I was still without my main course. He shortly returned with the fries heated and I was then told that "there had been a mix up in the kitchen and my meal would arrive shortly, which it did although some 15 minutes had now gone by and the birthday dinner was now ruined. I have to say that this is not the first, second or even third time that this has happened to us and only last year our anniversary was again ruined by very poor service which resulted in Cotes sending me a £100.00 voucher. Talking to friends this now appears to be common practice in Cote's in that when friends arrive for dinner one person is left out and has to wait for their food whilst everyone else is eating theirs. It is so common in fact that our close friend who drove us to Cote's had been in with five friends for lunch and again one of them was forgotten and had to eat her meal on her own as by the time hers arrived everyone else had finished. The other issue that appears to be very common is 'cold food'. It does strike me as quite odd in that we observed the food being brought up from the kitchen and the guy then standing around for many minutes waiting for a manager to deliver the food to the table. We observed in one case a wait of 6 minute for the manager to take the food to the table, and yet again a short while later the table complained that their food was cold and had to be taken back to the kitchen. What is a worrying trend for Cote's is that the same mistakes appear to be happening time and time again and no one is actually getting to grips with the problem. That said our waiter was "absolutely fabulous" however regrettably we did not manage to take his name, although we know he is from Porto in Portugal and dealt with our issues in an extremely efficient professional way. Our opinion of the management (and other regulars feel the it to) is not the same. They appear cold, aloof and when the wheels are coming off they are no where to be seen and stand by the bar and let the floor staff deal with the issues even though they are the ones taking the orders and then not supporting the waiters and waitresses. Yes we are very disappointed in that for the fourth time Cote's have let us down on an important day be it, birthdays, anniversaries or graduations and regrettably it will be while before we return.

We had the set menu which is excellent value and really delicious. You do need to order before 7.00 but it’s worth it. I have always had a nice meal at Côte and it’s really reliable.

Visited mid afternoon on a Saturday. Reasonably busy. Food was good but service was slow. Waiter also had to be reminded to bring our water and kept on giving the wrong food to the wrong person.

The food was delicious and the staff were very attentive. Each course arrived quickly so we did not have to wait at any time. The whole experience was brilliant as always.

You can never go wrong when you to Cote. Lovely meal for my husband's birthday for 7 people. As always the staff were friendly and helpful. One of our favourite restaurants.

Lovely Mother’s Day meal with all my favourite dishes including calamari, monkfish and finishing off with the most delicious Creme Caramel, washed down by a bottle of piquepoul - thank you
