The food was delicious as always & the service was good, the staff were polite & friendly. However, I was meant to be given a complementary glass of Kir Royale to accompany our meal as it was my birthday, but this didn't arrive. Although it didn't detract from the delicious meal, it would have been a nice birthday bonus!!

Fantastic value. Food delicious and house wine excellent. Definitely need to book as gets very busy. However not made to feel rushed to eat and get out! Set menu changed monthly. A firm favourite place to eat.

Delicious food. Well cooked and presented immaculately. The service was attentive without being overly instrusive. My only complaint (and it is minor) was that I had to wait quite a long time to pay with my card. Will be visiting time and time again!

Unfortunately on this visit the food was nowhere near the usual standards. Staff were lovely but the food was bland and tasteless. It was so disappointing as this was my birthday supper.

Really disappointed by the service. Not even busy but waiters either short staffed or inattentive. We allowed 90 minutes and even ordered from the Plates Rapide section of the menu. We only had enough time for one course... I was really looking forward to the creme caramel, but we had to leave. I tried to get Maitre De's attention and he shouted "what?" across the restaurant and went to answer a telephone. I'm sure that isn't the usual level of service one expects at Cote. The Waiters all reach across diners when there is ample room to stand next to each diner. It was really sad to see how one of our favourite ore theatre restaurants could get it all so wrong.

Very disappointing,the service was not good long wait for food ,I would understand it if the restaurant was full but it was half empty. We always go to Cote before the Theatre Royal, but last night we had to rush our dessert, in order to get there for 7.30.

Very good service. Professional as ever. Moules could have been better but main courses good. Lamb was filling, smoked haddock tastey but could have been more succulent. Thanks.

After a slightly sticky period, a few years back, this Brighton branch now scores consistently highly on all fronts. It has possibly the best interior of any Cote, being a converted Victorian music library where even the basic Set Menu, served with panach in this setting, feels like an event. The new autumn menu is excellent - Moules Cidre with bacon, is a very tasty addition. Chain restaurant fare at it's very best.

One of our favorite places in Brighton. Great for Lunch and Dinner. Given that - although we haven't been yet - I'd assume breakfast would be wonderful also.

Really attentive helpful friendly waiter. Helped made the Birthday celebration fun. Might have been nice if more decoration added to dessert rather than single candle. Chocolate sign saying "Happy Birthday" or sparkler etc. Lunch delicious and great staff. Thanks.

Food was good but far too much upselling. Sides were not required as the portions were adequate, despite being advised they were recommended. Order small red wine and on review of bill it was a large glass. Another step towards obesity due to upselling.

Very warm and welcoming. Excellent service, very attentive and very friendly. I had a problem with my main and the manager noticed, even though I didn't complain and he immediately took it off the bill added that he had spoken to chef. Plus we had a free mint tea. Very enjoyable afternoon. Thank you.

unfortunately the sauce for our grilled plaice was missing the mushrooms described in the menu. It was redone and we were given complimentary deserts so all was forgiven

We came here for lunch where the set menu has a few new dishes, which makes this restaurant even more attractive for regular visitors like me. As usual the service was virtually faultless and the food was good. Highly recommended - this really is one of the best Cotes in the country.
