I love cote eat here all the time with my partner but unfortunately last visit was pretty poor. We waited 30 minutes to have our order taken and then one of our meals didn’t arrive at all. I’m sure it was just a one off as al our previous visits have been superb but on this occasion not great

Seriously disappointing. Last year we used your restaurant and it was great so we booked again this year to celebrate our daughters birthday. Arrived at 2pm and shown to seat, meal arrived starter not great but ok. Main meal is the real issue. My daughters chips arrived cold and we needed to send them back, here peas where horrible, looked like they had been overcooked or left out too long, she wouldn't touch them. My Husbands beef was clearly reheated though he said it tasted ok.... but it was definitely microwaved or reheated. My seabass was tasty but I ended up ill for the afternoon. Not a good experience overall. I would have made more of a fuss at the restaurant but my daughter is very stressed in confrontational situations so wouldn't allow me. I will not be going again

My wife and I decided on the Valentine menu, smoked salmon, prawn gratine, and fillet steaks finished off with the hazelnut and grand mariner truffles for two. We both agreed this was the best meal we have had in Cote, and we have had quite a few over the years. The only downside was no complimentary glass of Kia Royal which was included on last years menu.

As a coeliac it was brilliant to have a menu printed with all the gluten-free options available, rather than having to pick through the entire menu and repeatedly question a member of staff. It was a theatre night when we visited and Cote was extremely busy, but staff were very efficient, the food was served in a good time and was very good. The drinks were not quite up to scratch - a request for two campari and tonics resulted in something else being supplied (they don't stock campari) and the alternatives, Kir Royale, were distinctly short of Kir. But overall, it was a very nice meal.

First table was by the side of the door with a strong draught every time the entrance door was opened we requested and were given a table in the center of the room. I have enjoyed Moules frites many times in Brighton and for many years at your Barbican location. On this occasion the were pathetic, some shells were empty,some were the size of peas and others were like brown string. The situation was saved by the efficient Manageress who must have hand picked the replacement serving. On the plus side the Apple Tart was excellent and a Gluten free Menu was available for my guest. I also must register my dislike of your billing which includes a service charge and then shows a space for tipping I have never noticed this before and in fact looking at the £86.10 total gave a £10 cash Tip to the waitress thinking there was no service charge included.

Arrived before 18.00 we were told we would be eating upstairs, as I have severe arthritis in the knees I told her I would unable to she said their was nothing ground floor and I should have stated that. I have been to Côte before on numerous occasions and have never asked to go upstairs or it to be open upstairs so we went to Carluccios and had a superb meal.

A lovely evening at this restaurant. Heard good reviews about the place beforehand so we were expecting good things! We had a larger table for seven and were sat upstairs which seemed a bit quieter so was really nice. The food was outstanding but what made the night even better was how lovely every single staff member was; friendly, attentive, and helpful. A really good job. We think one of our servers was newer as it looked like he was being shadowed by his supervisor, he did a great job and had a really good knowledge of the food and drinks we were asking about. We will definitely be returning when we're back in Brighton! (The one less star for noise level was because there was a somewhat rowdy group of people nearby! Nothing could be done by the staff though and it definitely didn't put us off!)

I took my boyfriend to Cote Brighton to celebrate his birthday and they really pulled out all the stops which made the evening really special. We go to this Cote quite regularly, but this really was an incredible evening and I want to thank the amazing managers and staff that looked after us and for all the little, thoughtful touches that made the evening. Pretty sure all our birthdays will be here from now on... Also shout out to the amazing gluten free menu which never fails me!
