Very slow service - 35 minutes to get drinks when others who ordered after us got there's first Breakfast came out in instalments 2 meals were wrong - I asked for a bacon baguette - came out with egg on it - I asked for no egg! They took it away- scraped the egg off and gave it back to me when I should have had a fresh one made

I was extremely impressed with all aspects of my recent visit to Cote. The service was incredibly quick and efficient, particularly considering how busy the restuarant was. We were approached for drinks orders within a few minutes of being seated. When we asked for five more minutes to decide on meals, the hostess returned with perfect timing (my experience in other restaurants has been that if you ask for "a few more minutes" you will be lucky to see your host return at all unless you flag them down). Food was delicious (fantastic steak!), wine list is great, and staff were extremely friendly and clearly knowledgeable about the menu. I will definitely be returning. Thank you for providing such an exellent dining experience :)

Lovely food as always, as well as great service. It was just a bit to hot hence why they did not get top marks. Better air conditioning would be amazing.

Bit noisy, bit busy and service was not brilliant. Food was very good with a wide choice available. One of our waitresses ended her shift half way through our order and we had to reorder drinks which were forgotten about. However we would probably go again at a less busy time.

We were a party of ten. Service was excellent - a relief as it hasn't always been good in the past. The food was excellent, especially the desserts. All in all, a very pleasing dining experience.

Had a lovely evening. Staff very friendly and the food as always was very good. Even changed a dish for one person who could not eat the croutons due to a tooth having been filled! Definitely a favourite place to eat.

I have been going to Brighton Cote since it opened some years ago. Today I was joined by friends from college. We had trained as teachers back in the 1970s so had plenty to talk about! As usual the food was very good and the staff's service was excellent.

High quality cuisine and a friendly and unhurried atmosphere made for an enjoyable visit. Accessible location near to centre of town, convenient for parking. I thought the choice of affordable red wine could have been wider.

We have been eating at Cote Brighton for years and always been more than happy with the food and service. Last night, however, was very different The food was very disappointing. Tomoto starter pretty tasteless, salmon fish cakes more Iceland Supermarket standard, steak not served medium rare. Service felt rushed and not very relaxing. It seems standards have slipped.

It was difficult to get staff attention even thought the resterant wasn't busy. We had to wait a fair amount of time to order coffees and again to attract attention for the bill. When the bill arrived it was wrong, this may have been due to a change of staff. Food was very good though.

We always enjoy our experience at Cote but the omelettes were a little rubbery, should have been softer. Apart from that, the service and ambience was excellent. We had a particularly nice young man serving us.
