We had lunch off the Specials board. What we had was good but would not want to pay full price. Too expensive for a chain!

Lovely restaurant, helpful and attentive staff. Impressed with the extensive menu and amount of choice for vegetarians. One of the best restaurants in Lincoln - would definitely recommend.

Nice ambience; well presented food; attentive service and a real feeling of quality about the whole experience. It is sometime since we have dined at Cote but realised that it is one of the best restaurants in Lincoln and we should go more often.

Location was a bit out of the way for us as we were staying up near the castle which meant a very steep walk down but more of a problem a very steep climb back after a delicious breakfast! The welcome was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. We had 1 English and 3 French breakfast and all were deemed well cooked and tasty. Excellent value at just over £10 for a juice, breakfast and warm drink.

Great steak tartare- they should do it as a main course, not just a starter. Service charge was included in our bill and it was more than 10% - quite an unpleasant surprise. We didn’t have the heart to say no and paid it.

Food was fantastic. They added 12% service charge onto the bill, which I would normally refuse to pay but service was very good too. Good

Absolutely excellent service and food was presented beautifully and tasted crazy. The mussels were probably the best I have had in the UK. 10 out of 10

Another great meal. Three of us chose the mussels, which were delicious, the fourth had apple and Roquefort salad, again very tasty. For our mains, one had the hunter chicken, one the whole Camembert with sour dough bread and salad, and two lamb Parmentier with carrots, all faultless. The desserts although always the same are scrumptious: crème caramel, apple crumble and ice cream, chocolate pot and chocolate mousse were our different choices. Very good service and a lovely ambience.

Service and food were excellent, apart from the delay in serving our desert, for which we had to wait over 20 minutes - apparently there was a shift change and it fell down a black hole. Only four of us, so not overly impressed with the fairly hefty service charge added automatically to our bill - which was removed at our request... Spoilt an otherwise lovely meal...

Very good value particularly with the pre 7pm menu. Efficient and friendly service despite the restaurant being busy with large Christmas groups. It's refreshing to see someone doing something so well,

The ambience was good and the food was ok but the service was pretty poor. It seemed like a bunch of young people had been left in charge and the lack of leadership and customer focus was evident.

Excellent service. Quality and presentation of the food was first class. A very enjoyable evening. It was our first visit to this restaurant and as it was my birthday I decided French cuisine for the night.

Lovely food, good service and nice atmosphere as per usual. The bill however was wrong, two bottles of wine charged and we only had one. It was soon rectified, but I do think 12/5 % service charge is too high.

Food was nice. However, there were various items missing from the menu. We also ordered a bottle of wine which took 15-20 minutes to come to the table as it wasn't chilled. Staff seemed disorganised.

Amazing Food and Amazing Service.. Only thing was - we ordered a bottle of wine and we didn't realise the deal included a bottle of prosecco for every 4 people so we had too much drink. If we had of known we wouldn't of ordered bottle of wine to start.

The restaurant had a lively feel about it and friendly, helpful staff. There is a good menu choice, especially the gluten free menu, which a member of the party praised as the best choice she had ever had when out for a meal. The food was excellent, the crepes on the special menu went down very well,as did the lemon tart. We have been to many Cote restaurants around the country, Lincoln being our favourite, and have never been disappointed.

Fantastic night, lovely food to a high standard. Attentive staff and quick service. Wonderful! I am a regular at Cote Brasserie and I am always impressed. This visit was no different. I went with a work colleague and she thought it was wonderful too and would like to go back. 10 out of 10 for me.

Although the restaurant wasn't full, the service was very slow and very poor. W had to try to attract the servers attention on several occasions. He didn't appear to be well trained or very attentive. The food was only average and not very hot. The prawn starter did not have the croutons as stated on the menu and when this was pointed out, the server agreed this was an omission but did not do anything about it. Two of us had the fish parmentier which was very watery and not as big as expected for a main course. The cost of the meal was very expensive for the quality of the food or the service. Also, gratuities are automatically added to the bill, which on this occasion were definitely not merited. I would not return to this restaurant.

Always enjoy visit to Cote Lincoln: good value food, lovely wine (very often the special is the one to go for) and without fail the staff are friendly, fun and efficient.
