Not as good as usual service wise. Even though it wasn't crowded, they seemed a little light on staff that evening. Maybe as it was the night after the bank holiday....

The French mustad was far too HOT for our taste. Was more like English mustard! Next time I will order whole grain. Apart from that our meal was good.

Great food and service. Very pleased. The lunch menu was good value for money and was well presented as well as very tasty, but I do not agree with the 12/5% service charge added to the meal.

We had a very enjoyable late breakfast at Cote Brighton. There was an event with people dressed as Star Wars characters immediately opposite from our window seat which was a bonus. Service was perfect.

Absolutely lovely place, took my Husband here for his birthday last weekend and I am so glad I did. The food looked and tasted amazing, the restaurant itself is beautiful and the staff were brilliant and really helpful even though we were only a small group. To top it off the prices are really good too, can't believe it has taken me so long to find this place. Extra brownie points for me. Will definitely be returning.

Fantastic and friendly service, with complimentary kir royals on arrival. Vibrant yet intimate atmosphere with just right lighting for an evening meal. Food was gorgeous. Particularly recommend April menu's scallops as starter and perfectly cooked sea bass as main course. A great evening and a real treat!

My starter was very good but my main dish of Smoked haddock was not so good as the haddock was extrememly strong. The service was very good especially as the restaurant was really busy. My husband's meal was good. We love the atmosphere of the restaurant and generally the food is very good too.

The restaurant was extremely busy at 6pm. Initially we found the service to be slower than we normally experience. We waited some time from being seated to actually being able to order a drink or food. Having ordered wine we waited much longer than arriving diners around us for the wine to arrive. Then, surprise the garlic bread arrived as a starter quickly followed by the main whilst we were still eating it. You can never fault the food here and it is always busy but tonight the service didn't meet expectations.

Lovely building, great location opposite the Corn Exchange, choice of menu for everyone, even Grandma was happy, as were the 9 year olds on a busy Children's Parade day in Brighton. Pea and bean risotto on the kids menu and proper home made chicken goujons make a thoroughly welcome change. Why can't more places do a decent kids menu like this? And my steak tartare was well seasoned plus the usual extra Tabasco, Worcestershire Sauce and pepper for me to do my own thing. We'll be back en famille.

The cote Brasserie Brighton. Very friendly staff and great well cooked food. This has become my regular first choice pick of 'restaurants' in Brighton and Hove. My recommendation is make sure you leave space for a desert as the crumble is so good! If you fancy something a little different then why not do what I do; On a warm summers day I wake early in the morning skip breakfast to take a walk along the seafront. Weave through the lanes where the shops are setting up for the day. Then finish of at Côte where I take a morning seat in the window and enjoy crepes with fruit, ice cream and a fresh cup of coffee while watching Brighton wake up for the day. Maybe if you do I will see you there, so a good morning to you. But please leave a space for me in the window. Bx

Hostess who showed us to our table was very welcoming & seated us with care. Waitress got our order wrong and brought wholemeal bread instead of white. She changed the bread when we brought it to her attention but only brought two slices instead of four. Eggs not cooked as requested. The bill was wrong & the waitress argued it was our fault because we didn't order everything at once. Bear this in mind if ordering the breakfast special.

Great restaurant in relation to the building and decor - truly so. The food is good - although the mussels were gritty.. The food is worth the price usually apart from that hiccup, especially with the lunch deal

Cote is generally excellent value for money, with a decidedly European ambience. However, it can be variable. Yesterday was a less-good day. Perhaps because it was lunch-time?

We arrived on time and were shown to our table. Served straight away with drinks and our starter was served almost immediately. Unfortunately there was an incident in the kitchen with one of the main courses which ment we had a long wait for our main course and didn't have time for desert or coffee as we were due at the theatre. We use the restaurant regularly when we go to the theatre and the food is always of a high standard.

Service and food was excellent. The tables are too close together, it's uncomfortable when hearing others conversation next to you and tricky chatting with strangers on your shoulder. Definitely would return but would rather sit at s different table. The set menu is excellent value. Very noisy restaurant. Staff fabulous.
