Côte Brighton restaurant

I love Cotes and the whole experience, but I felt the food was below par this time, I know we had the premium special, but the food was bland and lacked presentation. But I’ve never felt that this was the case before..so I was sad to feel this way. We will still come back for more though!

Really enjoyed the food. Very good value for money. Service always good and kind. My kids loved it as well! We have been having dinner many times and it’s never been disappointed.

Excellent- an enjoyable and memorable family birthday meal. We had great food and wine in a relaxing and special atmosphere. The staff were charming and we will definitely return.

Dinner with hubby .. lovely food and great service. Portions just right. Slightly noisy but a large building so to be expected. Always a favourite and again not disappointed.

Easter Sunday and restaurant was quite but great service and perfect food. Good value, ordered food from gluten free menu as well. Couldn’t have asked for better

The food was tasty and the waitress friendly and efficient. We did, however, have to leave to get back to work, as things were a little slow.

Good service and good food. Linguine was a fraction too al dente for my taste. Creme caramel up to its usual brilliant standard. Everything one expects from Cote including a pleasant ambience.

Hen party was disappointing since most places don’t allow it now

Cote's never fails to impress. The Brighton branch although quite large the service always seams personal. The ambiance of the restaurant is just right and the new March specials were lovely. The Monkfish was delicious.

A Wonderful Birthday Celebration with Excellent Food, Atmosphere and Staff that went Above & Beyond to make the lunch Very Special. The Manager and our Server were Amazing. Thank You!

Second time I've taken my wife to Cote & we absolutely love it! Our favourite place to dine!!! Never a complaint will most definatly be using again

Good food well cooked but a little short on flavour- but given its size and busy-ness, pretty good and great value with prix fixe menu

I usually have the calamari, which is usually delicious, but it was very overcooked and hard. The duck was also overcooked, and not hot Very disappointed.

Felt just like a restaurant I visited in Paris, lovely food, wonderful staff, would highly recommend and great value for money. Would suggest booking as gets quite busy

The service has improved of late and the food is still excellent

The spring rhubarb martini is amazing . Had swordfish , which was cooked really well , the waitress was lovely and friendly , overall really nice, food is definitely better when you don’t have the fixed menu in Cote . Only thing , I wanted a vodka soda and piece of lime . Cote don’t have fresh lime , please get some .

Had lunch with friends today and without exception we all enjoyed the set lunch. Waiter very friendly and service time excellent. Great value for money but having visited several Côte Brasseries I find the same exception service and value across all their establishments.

We had a fantastic evening , food was , nice atmosphere,amazing,wine was very good, service was excellent ,we really enjoyed , I highly recommend côte brasserie

Waitress was friendly and helpful. However, only one member of staff serving entire upstairs. Food was good. Restaurant was chilly! Had it been 2 or 3 degrees warmer I would have given more stars.

Loved being given the chance to eat upstairs - not so noisy and we could have a good chat. Love the new Prestige Set menu - really good. More French onion Soup Please

The most friendly and efficient staff, worthy of a Michelin starred restaurant. Always on point, cheerful and attentive. How they get this so right is amazing. Food is reliable, varied and well cooked. Always busy and buzzy. One of my Brighton favourites!

As usual a very good experience. I booked online which is super easy and the food and the service were to the high standard you can expect from all of the Cote restaurants.

Staff very friendly and food excellent. Bizarrely, the only slight mark down I would give is that the food comes out too quickly which makes the whole enjoyment of sitting down for a leisurely meal end too soon. We were not rushed by the staff or made to feel rushed......but it was all over in an hour.

Great food, served in good time by attentive and friendly staff.

This was our first visit to a ‘Cote Brasserie’ and hoped it would be a half decent lunch. Wrong! It was a great lunch! The restaurant was a surprise at it was a lot larger than expected. Very stylish interior,air conditioning and a high ceiling so no uncomfortable noise. Plenty of 2 seater tables so good for couples. Staff very friendly, menu of the day was a reasonable price for a two or three course meal. Only disappointed by charging extra for bread, not a deal breaker but noted. Portions were good. Overall a thoroughly good experience and will look forward to our next visit.

Welcoming place, very attentive and friendly staff, food was very nice and we were not waiting for ages, food came nice and hot! A very nice atmosphere, everything was perfect! Definitely we’ll comeback soon!

Visited the Brighton restaurant on 6th April. Seated promptly by hostess. Fantastic waiter who was attentive and charismatic. Food was excellent, especially the sirloin, cooked perfectly. Plates cleared promptly, wasn't kept waiting at any point. Staff all worked seamlessly with each other. Couldn't fault the experience. Overall service and food was fantastic

Welcoming atmosphere, relaxing and convivial. Service is excellent - all staff genuinely do everything they can to ensure you are happy with your meal. Thanks Côte!

I tend to dine at Cote restaurants quite often in London and on this occasion I ordered my usual calamari and mussels frites in Brighton. I must say It was quite disappointing as usually both dishes are spot on but this time I only had 7 soaking in oil calamari which also didn’t taste great and 6 of my mussels were closed. We also had duck and it was lacking the red wine juice. The only plus for service as the waitress was really nice.

Brilliant staff, delicious food and never a disappointed experience dining at any Cote restaurant! My seabass was not quite hot enough and was instantly replaced and the bill adjusted in goodwill. The restaurant delivers first class dining. Well done!

Just had an amazing half term treat, my friend and I and our teenage boys dined from the two course menu. Incredible value and service!! The building is so beautiful and can’t get over how professional yet friendly the staff are. It’s a winner all round

Lovely waitress, quite attentive. Made every effort to make our evening one to remember . Loved the way the waiting staff brought dessert with a birthday candle and sang Happy Birthday to the birthday person really special

Service was not good . We had to ask twice for our second bottle of wine . Several dishes were not available . Not offered coffees , etc and had to ask twice for the bill - Very disappointed x

This was a special occasion, my partner's birthday and you guys made it a very special night. Thank you to the all team from the moment we arrived to our departure. Lovely welcome, friendly and professional service, delicious food and deserts!!! A memorable experience, Thank you! Serge & Guy

Wonderful meal and excellent service, rib eye steak was superb. Always happy to eat here and the booking system is very straight forward. Highly recommend. Ideal for Dome and TR pre show meals.

Great decor and atmosphere, lovely staff but set menu was bland.

Majority of our meals were very good but the chicken was dry needed a sauce, the beans were hard pity as we usually have no complaints. I have booked again for the 14th same friends let's hope meals are back to the usual level - excellent.

Great and reliable as always. Could not supply requested table but didmtheir very best to find an acceptable alternative. Service and food excellent as usual. It’s the reliability that keeps us coming back.

Excellent service, good food. Enjoyed the complimentary gin and tonics. As always very enjoyable experience. Always recommend Cote to my friends and family. Looking forward to going again.

A warm welcome when we arrived, friendly helpful staff and really delicious meal. The general atmosphere good though sometimes can appear to be little noisy but often because of celebrations taking place. Treat yourself and enjoy!

Excellent experience. Great food lovely surroundings.Really good value for money . Will definitely visit Cote Brighton again soon. In fact all local Cote restaurants are excellent.

Your staff went above and beyond expectations tonight. The service was of a standard I have enjoyed in Michelin starred restaurants. A huge thank you and well done. No other word than superb. 5 star all the way!!

Great food and first class service. Nothing too much trouble

We had the prestidge menu. The asparagus was excellent & so was the pork belly. Unfortunately some of the mussells were overcooked with lots of broken bits of shell & the chicken was overdone. It was a shame as the food is normally very good.

Starter arrived before our drinks! Dried up chicken with green beans that had attempted to be hidden under the chicken. They looked like they’d been cooking for ever as were brown and hadn’t even been top and tailed. To be fair, I complained and was brought some fresh ones. Bad choice of restaurant. I have been to other Cote restaurants and they were much better. It was very busy but no excuse for serving second rate food!

What a fab place this is. Service is always busy effect and the foods spot on. Thankyou you never disappoint. We look forward to our next visit

Lovely setting and staff. However really disappointed with the meal size as where the majority of our group. We’re not massive eaters but I have never left a restaurant after a three course meal as hungry as I did from cote. The mains were crying out for a potatoe side dish or something if that nature. Myself and my daughter had the sea bream. Which looked small when it arrived and was gone in under 5 minutes. Will I be back unfortunately I dont think so as we go out to be satisfied and the food served did not do this.

Lovely meal. Excellent service despite being extremely busy. Reasonably priced considering quality of food

As it was my birthday..special night I was dining with my family...Everyone enjoyed themselves My favourite restaurant as always

Welcomed at the door and given a table upstairs as we requested. Our server was attentive and personable and we ordered glasses of Sancerre and starters. The wine was as lovely as ever and the first course delicious as usual. From then on it went bizarrely downhill. We usually order the Lagarde Pinot Noir with the fish course. A couple of glasses arrived with opaque red wine which had no resemblance in look, texture or taste to the wine we had ordered countless times before in Cote restaurants around the country for the last ten plus years. We were offered a Merlot instead but that seemed to be the same wine as before. To add insult to injury my fish was severely over-cooked. The fish was swiftly replaced and we went back to the Sancerre....bemused!! So, Richard and Nick, what the Grenache is going on?? Good food but a 400% mark-up on the wines means the experience is diminished overall. Carlucchios much better value for money as wine is not a rip-off.
