like the way that the food is presented to you by two waiters one with a large round tray holding all the food or the table whilst the second person hands it to you. No waiting all served at the same time.

Consistently great food and good service, all at a great price. It may be part of a chain but you would never know. I really can't rate this place highly enough.

Al. Breakfasts were freshly cooked and very good. The staff were welcoming but not intrusive. We were in the middle space which was a bit gloomy.

Super venue,excellent food and nice friendly staff. Will return. First came across Cote in Lincoln and were impressed with service and food there so they obviously have a good recruiting policy.

Great experience. Spent lovely afternoon in great company at reasonable prices. Food great and good value as was the wine, especially as we were city centre. Staff very relaxed although maybe wee bit hard to catch their eye. Service was prompt though. Will definetly be there again soon.

We love the place. Food is very good, staff are efficient and the price is just fine. First came across Cote in Canterbury and loved it there. We were delighted when we the manager told us there was one in Edinburgh.

Staff readily accommodated our request to have a break between starter &a main courses as we were expecting a guest, who wouldn't be dining, to join us for a few minutes. As soon as he joined us he was furnished with a glass & fresh water and made to feel welcome.

The food wasn't good. The Calamari was overdone with too much crispy coating. The char- grilled chicken wasn't char-grilled and only just cooked, the flavour of the chicken was nasty. However, the restaurant had a nice atmosphere and the staff were great.

My friends and I had a wonderful dinner yesterday evening; the food was fabulous, the service exceptional and the ambience of the restaurant first class. I have been to Cote Brasserie twice before and each experience has been as good as the next one. It was however one of my friend's first time there - and she loved it and will definitely be back again!

Had a lovely brunch in Cotes. Breakfast was cooked beautifully and great lovely atmosphere in the morning, not too busy. Breakfast was a good value for money. Been going to cotes since its opened. Great place for Brunch, Lunch, and Dinner or even just for a casual drinking.

Excellent food and very attentive service without being intrusive. The restaurant has a good atmosphere and the lunch and early evening meal is extremely good value.

David S.9 years ago · 1 review

Very nice restaurant which is part of a national chain, fixed price dinner is very good value for money and quality was very good. Breakfast possibly not as good value, but again quality and choice was excellent. Service very good, but do not agree with 12.5% service charge being added to bill even if it is discretionary. would have been a 5, but for service charge!!!!!

I have been here only twice but on each occasion I have been overwhelmed by the knowledgeable staff and the sublime food. We chose from the 10 year anniversary menu which was well balanced and the wine list substantial, I can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. I will be returning soon. Carol Clague

This was our fifth visit to Cote and each time the quality of our meal deteriorates . A sixth visit therefore is very questionable. Very disappointing.

Nicola S.9 years ago · 6 reviews

The quality of the meal was top notch and the staff couldn't have been more helpful and charming. Excellent value for money and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone.

Good service and food good. On the negative I felt we were a bit cramped in terms of space. This needs to be reviewed. Also menu choice good.

Food very good. Staff very friendly and efficient. Ambience--due to the shape of the restaurant there tends to be a lot of movement by staff and customers up the centre aisle, but not too intrusive.

Excellent service, very friendly and efficient staff. Our party of two rated the food very highly; everything was perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. We will definitely be back and will recommend you to others.

I have been a frequent visitor to Cote Edinburgh and today was not quite as good as usual. My friend and I went for the 2 course lunch. Overall I would say that it was tasty but too highly seasoned. I like highly flavoured food but would say that it would not suit a lot of people. My friend chose the melon as starter and it was very underripe. She only ate half of it. We were sitting at the front of the restaurant and were disturbed by the door frequently being banged.

Nice atmosphere, average French bistro food. Very friendly chatty staff. Formulaic feel to the set up so you can tell it's a chain. House white very good.

We had a lovely lunch with friends today. The food was of a high standard and the staff very friendly and helpful. I was also taking advantage of a birthday treat from Cote and we all had complimentary kir royal which was a bonus. We will definitely be back.

We like the ambience space, and service. Generally we are accommodated with a table that fits in with our requirements. The food as always is of good standard and I particularly enjoyed the scallops from the April specials.

Staff could not have been nicer or more professional. Food was nicely prepared and well presented. Cote is probably my favourite chain and they have a wide range of gluten free dishes for those who need them.

Great breakfast and service at Cote Edinburgh as always. Good value, tasty food and nice ambience. Would recommend and go back again. Lovely coffee too,

Christine D.9 years ago · 1 review

Although we enjoyed the food the service was poor. We asked for a few extra minutes to choose then had to attract server's attention 20 minutes later to order. We said 3 times that our Mum was cold before a/c was turned down. A long time between courses being served and had to remind about vegetables. Saw the server then appear to order them so arrived when we had eaten more than half of our mains. Don't like the way service charge is added as felt obliged to pay it despite being unhappy.

The visit was one of two parts. The food, service and general atmosphere was excellent, as usual, but it was rather spoiled by the behaviour of two children on the next table - their parents and grandparents were completely unable to control the children - a boy of around 5 and a girl around 8. They made loud noises all through their meals and treated the table as a place to display their feelings and noisily too. I and my companion, who had recently suffered a bereavement of a close friend, which was the reason I wanted to see her and try to console her if I could, and which plan was destroyed by those at the next table. I realise that the restaurant could not be responsible when the family could not control the children, but wonder if it is possible to get a quieter atmosphere the next time I come?
