Very friendly service and relaxed surroundings, food was ok bit plain and overpriced for what it was but I would visit again. Don't like that they add service charge automatically.

Great food, lovely restaurant, friendly staff. All in all a nice meal with my mum for my birthday. Not over priced for what you get. Shame it was a bit too hot upstairs... even if it was October! Would've made it a 6/6 if it's have been a bit cooler!

Food and service were excellent. (Perhaps a bit too much chilli in the Breton fish stew?) Wish we had a branch closer to home (eg central Nottingham)

A refreshing concept with delicious food. In the times we have had lunch recently we have never been disappointed. The menu delivers delicious flavours without being complicated and in the true style of French cuisine. Will, I am sure, remain as one of our favourite venues

Fabulous service and food was cooked to perfection! Would definitely recommend. Knowledge of gluten free/coeliac disease allowed me eat my meal without any concerns of becoming poorly after leaving! Best place we have eaten in a very long time!

Food was extremely slow arriving (starters and mains).One apology from the servers but no explanation.The flat bread for starter was overcooked.We were told only toilets upstairs so to sit up there and as one of our party is not very mobile this was very difficult.Surely there must be at least a disabled toilet downstairs.Have been to Cote several times before including other cities but sorry we won't go again.

I have tried many dishes from the menu and they have all been well cooked and very tasty. I struggle sometimes to choose from the menu because there are so many dishes that I have tried and enjoyed. The staff are pleasant and attentive. There are not that many restaurants in Chester that can be trusted to cater for coeliacs but Cotes is one of them. Well worth a try!

We enjoyed the ambiance. The fish soup was very tasty but for me the veal escalope was a little oily. We found the bottles of beer to be a little expensive.

Waited two hours from siting down to receiving our main meals, when the food finally arrived, one of the meals was totally wrong, and the food was pretty average. Nice restaurant and staff were lovely but waiting and the food didn't make up for it unfortunately.

We were a group of 'locals', but enjoy French food and culture. September specials were delicious. Charming service, excellent food and lovely wine. Main fish courses superb. And the crepes were simply marvellous. A very good evening.

The food (from the lunch menu) and wine were delicious and service was excellent. We liked the fact that still water was provided. We would have liked to have bread on table and to order smaller quantities than a full bottle of house wine (carafes of 1l, 75cl, 50cl and 25cl of house wine are sold in France). Overall, we had a very positive experience and will be back!

The staff that served us were really lovely. The reason for the score is down to a few disappointments with the food. One of our party ordered the vegetarian sausages which looked very dark brown and we dry. For starter i had the anchovies on flat bread. I specifically asked about what type the anchovies were, to be told they weren't the small oily and salty ones and that they were stored in brine. They were actually the small and salty ones. This dish wpuld be so much nicer with fresh or pickled anchovies not the salty ones. One guest had the confit duck, which came with sauteed potatoes, no other veggies. There needs to be some more veg on plate or advice to order a side. And lastly the salad the other guest ordered, was served in a pyrex bowl and wasn't very well presented. Elements of the meal were lovely, and overall because of the friendliness of the staff, we had a nice evening. I think some further attention to detail on the menu, would elevate the experience to a 5*.

I do not usually have the prix fixe, but on this occasion I did. The croquettes were excellent as was the steak frites. Remarkable value. My glass of Bordeaux seemed expensive - but it was good. The service was slick and attentive, but not over so. Will return!

The Cote Brasserie chain are really raising the ante in value for money dining out. WE have visited Cote in Shrewsbury 5 times now and on today's visit to Chester we took our daughter to Cote there and were delighted to find the same value for money and service.

The duck confit was excellent the wine was delicious and not over priced. Service was spot on, the only downside is the service charge that is not clearly identified on the menu. I know of it and always ask for it to be removed, and tip separately but at least two groups of dinners were taken aback by it
