Great food and atmosphere, and Cote has always been a high standard. Though the menu doesn't change that much there is plenty of variety. However the new dish of Breton Tomatoes for starter was fantastic.

As fairly regular customers we were a little disappointed; our starter was 'dumped' on the edge of the table, we waited well over half an hour for our main course and had to ask the waiter if we were due to be served, having seen other diners served (and finish eating) who arrived and ordered after us. We were offered complementary olives while we waited, which never arrived. Having being asked if everything was alright, we did comment and were given complementary coffees. It was obvious that there were problems but this should not have transmitted to the customer. The food, however, was as enjoyable as ever and wee are not put off from returning.

The service was excellent and the complementary drink in honour of my friend's celebration was a lovely surprise. The food was delicious too so we had a lovely lunch. We'd recommend it highly!

Service was great, however I went for the the chicken & walnut salad on the 5-7 menu. No walnuts in the salad apart from one, no even half an avacoda & the salad itself was not even fresh. Took my mum for her birthday and just wasn't satisfied as we've been eating here for years. My girlfriend also said her portion size was just too small so might be worth looking into. Ta

Was sent a birthday voucher for 2 Kir Royales and they wouldn't let me use it on the lunch menu although no where on offer did it state this. While we were there , a couple occupied the table next to ours., and when the waiter discovered it was the man's birthday, he brought him a Kir Royale with Cotes compliments'. This couple did not have a voucher and had not pre-booked. Very bad P.R. Misleading advertising.

I felt the waitress wasn't as knowledgeable about the menu as I would have expected. She tried too hard to upsell side dishes and in particular one that was already included in a main course. Also the type of sides she recommended weren't really suitable with some of the main dishes, i.e. creamy spinach with a creamy fish dish. These are my reasons for not scoring my meal higher. On a positive note, the wine was fantastic!

My Wife and I ordered from the lunch menu which was 3 course. The food was light and flavoursome and just right for a lunchtime. Our waiter, who was Portuguese, afforded us just the right amount of attention and was extremely pleasant

Very nice evening. As usual food was good and we all enjoyed our dinner. I was with some friends from out of town, who had not been to Cote before, and they were very impressed. We ate from the main menu which I think is a bit on the pricey side, which would be my only slightly negative comment. On the whole I like Cote and the early bird fixed price menu is extremely good value.

Excellent food and service, price slightly high especially the 12.5% service charge. I prefer to add this myself depending on the quality of service .

Great food, great service, as always. Lovely 'July' menu, and juicy steak. Creme caramel is simply the best. Consistently the best restaurant for quality and price.

Once again Cote came up trumps. It would have been a 6 if we had not had to wait nearly an hour for the first course to arrive. Our Portugese waiter was excellent though having only arrived from another Cote a couple of days before may not have been as aware of the systems in Brighton. Otherwise the food was excellent and great value as ever for the July menu.

The restaurant was too hot and our table was not in a very good spot, top of stairs. Three side dishes were so late arriving we told the waiter not to bother. The food we received was good but I was very disappointed over all. I have always had good experiences in the past.

The food was really good. I had the prawns to start and the duck confit for my main. The service was quite poor. There was no attention to detail. No salt and pepper on the table, no small plates for the bread and dirty glasses. A lovely restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. Overall a good experience and I will return.

Service was pleasant but erratic, one side never arrived and we had to re-order one desert. Food was bland and rather dry. So, OK but nothing special
