Cote Brasserie - Cardiff Central in Cardiff

Lovely food ,gave us an eye pad for allergies, inattentive service . Didn’t pay any service charge. Mentioned it was a birthday on booking but no recollection during the meal. Worst service at any Cote I have been too Last time was Bath and they were amazing with nut allergy. Pretty disappointing overall

Lovely friendly staff and a pleasant environment, if a bit shabby in places. We were a group of three, celebrating a 50th birthday, so we all got a free glass of Cremant, served in sparklingly clean tulip flutes, which was very generous and impressed me hugely. We ordered from the fixed price menu, which was very reasonable at £22 for three courses, and the food was fine, if nothing special. Fair at the price I'd say. This was my first ever visit to a Cote Brasserie, and as chain restaurants go, it wasn't bad. The efficient and friendly service was definitely the highlight.

Excellent friendly service and great food

We visited on a Wednesday evening as we had a gift card to use and took advantage of the Steak soirée offer - a free bottle of wine if you order 2 steaks and 2 sides. It was our first time at Côte and we were impressed with the service, food and laid back atmosphere. The steak was cooked well and with the promotion it presented good value.

Came in with my boy for some scran. Had big steak and some big vibes. Server was great but the top G Charlie the food runner had some quality banter, friendly, outgoing, absolutely indespensible to the dinner service in my eyes

Having been here several times previously and enjoyed the experience I booked my daughters 21st birthday meal here.Although the staff were pleasant and a complimentary drink was provided for the eight of us the attention to orders left a lot to be desired. Missing starter,wrong main course and a simple request for a warm baguette which never arrived did leave a bit of a negative experience

Nice food good service Nice place.

Delicious food in a warm, homely atmosphere. Will definately be returning.

Llevaba un tiempo queriendo probar cuna, y un viaje solo de una noche a Cardiff me dio la oportunidad. Estaba muy emocionada por el cebo blanco, que tenía como parte de la preparación, junto con un filete y el plato de queso. Todos fueron excepcionales. También tomó un cóctel y una copa de coca. El personal era encantador y muy atento. El servicio fue muy rápido y eficiente. Definitivamente voy a volver a la cuna l, ya que son uno de los pocos resturantes de cadena más con mariscos en su menú. ¡La próxima vez probaré los mejillones!

First time eating at cote and definitly not my last. I had been interested in coming, as they had whitebait on the pre fix menu.i had that, along with a steak and the cheese plate . Everything was fresh and delicious, some of the best food I've had. Steak was perfectly cooked. I had a cocktail called a French 75 really lovely. Staff were really nice and welcoming, obviously a very popular place as it filled up really quickly and my booking was for 1130. Defo coming back as they have a great selection of fish and seafood on the menu, which you dont often see in more chain places.

Generalmente somos fanáticos de Cote, ya que siempre hemos podido confiar en ella para una gran comida dondequiera que estemos, sin embargo, encontramos que nuestra experiencia en la sucursal de Cardiff está por debajo del estándar. Las 2 chicas sirviendo eran agradables y amables, pero cuando uno se fue de servicio estaba demasiado ocupado para el que se fue por su cuenta. La comida era bastante mediocre, tuvimos la comida compartida de domingo asado que no estuvo a la altura de su descripción. Inodoros desagradables cansados y sucios, no es una buena experiencia.

Went for my mum's birthday. It was incredibly busy but every staff member still did a brilliant job despite the pressure they must've been under. The food and service was amazing. Miya served us. She was lovely, helpful and her positive energy was so admirable. My mum absolutely adored her. I didn't get the names of the other waitress and waiter who served us towards the end of the night but they were very sweet and helpful too. (And very polite and tolerant of us despite being one of the last customers to leave during what must've been a difficult shift.) The food was brilliant too. The truffle hollandaise sauce with the steak frites was lovely. Big thank you to all the staff for making my mum's birthday extra special for her. Waiting staff and chefs were 10/10.

Nice meal and friendly service at valentines

Côte never disappoints great food and value for money. Very friendly and welcoming and attentive service. We were taken upstairs never knew it existed !! Made a lovely evening special thanks to all the staff who were working so hard.

Delicious food, great service and a super cosy atmosphere! Really enjoyed my meal here - they have a great lunch time deal as well!

La comida era promedio en el mejor de los casos y esperó casi dos horas para la comida. Cote se sintió poco personal, el personal era lo suficientemente educado, pero no tenía tiempo para siquiera comprobar si teníamos bebidas

We entered through the front door to be greeted by a member of staff who then allowed us to choose where we would like to sit which was nice. We had the steak soiree in which you order 2 steaks, 2 sides and 2 sauces and get a complimentary bottle of house wine (red, white or rose) for free, we both went with a medium rib eye, café de Paris butter, tenderstem broccoli and tomato, basil and shallot salad. The rib eye was cooked to perfection so much so that the steak knife cut through it with ease and it was so tender to taste, the broccoli was a great addition to the palette which also paired beautifully with the red wine. The restaurant was clean and well kept, presentable and best of all nice and warm; the staff themselves were attentive throughout and ensured that you had the best experience possible. Thank you for having us and I look forward to visiting again some time in the future.

Went there for new year’s eve. Not really worth it. Food was 50/50. overcrowded, staff was doing their best, but place is badly managed so everyone were looking lost. It felt like our table was forgotten, asked for cutlery 3 times, other tables had water with glasses, i had to ask for it.

El lugar y la comida era precioso, ni una sola falta en absoluto con él! Sin embargo ... llegamos temprano y al estar en el comercio nosotros mismos sabíamos que reservamos en un momento y sabíamos que no esperaríamos un pedido de comida de inmediato. A la llegada nos preguntaron si alguien tenía alergia, a mi respuesta sí la tengo y necesitaría decirles y que me dijeran lo que puedo y no puedo tener. Esperamos 45 / 50 minutos para que se hiciera un pedido de bebidas .. porque preguntamos .. y también preguntamos si podíamos tener agua en la mesa. Finalmente me preguntaron si estábamos listos para pedir... todavía no me habían informado sobre los alérgenos, de todos modos pedimos nuestra comida, que ni una sola persona tenía una queja... por suerte, ya que no había un solo cheque en nuestra mesa. Tuvimos que saludar a alguien si necesitábamos más bebidas , todos nos sentíamos completamente olvidados de estar en la parte trasera de las zonas de estar de arriba pero podíamos ver otras mesas que tenían un servicio increíble, el único camarero ( no sé su nombre ) cuando lo saludábamos desde su sección era encantador . Teníamos al gerente sirviendo nuestra mesa y como gerente pensamos que era bastante bueno, ya que tienen que establecer un estándar, extremadamente decepcionado con el servicio, pero la comida era impresionante!

A culinary gem offering delicious food, amazing service, and a cozy setting! Each dish was crafted with care, making the dining experience truly unforgettable.

We have visited this branch several times and have always enjoyed out visit, but this time was a huge disappointment, as we waited 20 minutes for any service to order drinks or have our cutlery, then waited 45 minutes of rour food to arrive, narrowly almost missing a concert we had booked. The food was only warm when it arrived. I had to go find a waiter to get our food served and then had to go find another waiter to pay our bill. We refused to pay the service charge, as there was no service!

It feels like Paris in Cardiff. Food was excellent. The wine we had was excellent. Take care not to order the very overpriced IOP wines. The toilets were grim.

Delicious Breakfast at Côte, service was amazing & food was incredible! Would recommend the Breakfast Cassoulet - “A slow-cooked haricot bean stew from south-west France. Baked eggs with smoked Toulouse sausage, tomato, harissa & herbs, served with toasted seeded sourdough.”

I can't praise Cote enough. We held my best friend's hen do meal here and had the best experience. Not only was the food absolutely delicious, but the staff were so accommodating. They allowed us decorate the table early and welcomed my friend with a complimentary bottle of prosecco to say congratulations. Our waitress Parissee (?) was an absolute star for the entire meal. She helped me choose the tastiest non-alcoholic cocktails (I'm pregnant) and helped get information from the chefs for me about the food. All in all, a fantastic meal out!! Thank you team Cote.

Absolutely awful service. Waited more than 30 minutes for our mains. Customers who had arrived much later than us got all their food earlier. We stood up and left. Also, it was very loud on the main floor.

We were a party of 8 girlfriends celebrating Christmas. We had been the previous year and it was fabulous so we decided to return. Disappointed is quite an understatement. We had previously preordered our three courses. We were sat for our booking time of 13.00, however we asked a few times when our food would be served and eventually our starters arrived at 13.50 by which time we were quite hungry. Ben our waiter was really apologetic and said that a larger party upstairs had been served before us and that they were really busy and had people off sick. The starters were mediocre. I’ve got to say that my brûlée Camembert was absolutely fine. (You can’t possibly go wrong with such a simple dish!) Some of the rest of the party were not so satisfied with other starters. Our main courses arrived at 14.35 and was not that amazing to say the least. The so called confit potatoes were too hard to eat and had obviously been over cooked. My roast Turkey wrapped in bacon with a chestnut stuffing was again over cooked and hence dry. The whole dish was far from perfect. We complained about the potato dish and the lovely waiter again very apologetic said that he’d go to the kitchen and get us some other roast potatoes. All very well but we didn’t have them until we had virtually finished our main courses. Desert was an absolute joke in my case. I had ordered the clementine mess. I had 2 little slices of clementine, not even segments. Again very disappointing,to say the least. This was not a cheap meal. We paid £39.95 even though it was advertised on line at £ 37.95. This had been queried but it was said that this was a different price in the Cardiff branch. That’s not right-is it ?

Cosy atmosphere, excellent service, select yet varied menu, freshly made and beautifully presented meals. Highly recommended. Particular thanks to Bart and Grace for their professionalism and kindness on a very busy night. We will return!

Gran ambiente, fantástica relación calidad-precio, tuvimos el menú, gran elección, todo tan sabroso, buen tamaño de porción. Tomamos una copa de crema de cortesía. El servicio fue excepcional, tuvimos a la encantadora Mia como camarera y ella hizo que nuestra experiencia gastronómica fuera genial. Cote tiene suerte de tenerla en su personal.

We were warmly welcomed, the staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable about the food & wine menu. The ambience of the restaurant is really warming, comfortable seats and nice lighting. The lunch menu is excellent value and very tasty, I well recommend.

Wonderful staff food was great value for money a lovely experience

A booking for 4 had been made following our visit to take the 'Pobol y Cwm ' set tour. We were greeted on our arrival snd taken to our table. We were given time to peruse the menu and ordered a bottle of delicious house wine. We all gave our choices from the menu and we were waited on and looked after very well. The food was delicious and will definitely return.

Really enjoyed my experience here. Excellent quality food and fair value as well.

Pretty awful. Came here tonight with my friend, not only did it take an hour for us to have our order taken, we were not checked in on at all. We were the only customers awaiting to be served, everyone else had already been served and eating their meal. The people that had been served were also very few tables, it was not busy, no reason for us to have an hour wait to be taken for our orders, as people who work in hospitality ourselves we tried to be understanding but it was made very clearly that they did not bother nor want us there, very uncomfortable atmosphere. As well as what I stated above, one of the waitresses thought it would be funny to loudly make a joke about "slitting her wrists" as a person with scars and a long history of self harm it's absolutely disgusting to hear people joke about it, especially someone who works in the establishment, you really need to check your staff. We took the service charge off for all of this, food was bland along side everything else, a really unpleasant disgusting experience to be honest.

Cote Brasseries in all locations visited so far are great quality authentic French food.

A good place to eat in Cardiff. Usual selection of dishes available.

Prix fix menu is delicious and at a good price. Proportions aren’t that big (makes sense), but it’s worth it for the quality of the food.

Love this place. The food is always amazing. Great ambiance and lovely staff. Will definitely be back. Cannot recommend enough!

Super friendly & welcoming service, couldn’t have been more accommodating with two young children & a pushchair.

Friendly service tasty food and a cozy environment make this spot unforgettable

Relaxing vibe fantastic food and friendly service make this restaurant worth every visit

Me and my wife enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Dewi our waiter was helpful and friendly

Food was good, staff were fabulous, reasonable prices but I won’t be visiting any of your restaurants in the future, unless you change your ‘card only’ policy. Cash remains our strongest tool to promote financial inclusion while preserving privacy and security, and new digital tools should emulate it not replace it. You SHOULD accept both! Additionally until it came to payment I was not aware of your no cash policy, this should be made clear on arrival.

A welcoming vibe with delicious dishes and excellent service highly recommended

Buzzing atmosphere on a Saturday evening with large contingent from France for Sunday's 6 Nations fixture. Very good food and service, small drinks list but some nice choices. Sancerre Rose recommended.

Great food Great service Just a bit too noisy

Had 2 excellent meals here. Good food and pleasant staff.

Absolutely wonderful. We were a party of 14, so the restaurant asked if we could submit our orders in advance, to help with the speed of service, but were very accomodating and responded to queries almost immediately. The service was impeccable, with friendly and cheerful staff. The food was lovely, well presented and tasty, and reasonably priced for a restaurant in the centre of Cardiff. Maybe a bit limited in vegetarian options, but there were 4 vegetarians in our party and they were very happy with their choices. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant.

Amazing visit for our anniversary, looked after by all staff, impeccable service and food 👍👏♥️

Had a lovely meal tonight, 1st September 2024. Staff were absolutely amazing and very helpful. Would definitely recommend this restaurant

Great atmosphere with Friendly staff the food was amazing I ordered the Belly pork and it was beautifully cooked and tasted fabulous the desert creme brûlée was absolutely delicious, I will definitely be returning, highly recommended.

Nice food for a fair price. The 2 course menu had good options for £18 per person

We did the Steak deal and my word! It's a great deal. Order 2 steaks, 2 sauces and 2 sides and you get a free bottle of wine! We did this twice for 4 of us and had the best deal meal of our holiday. Service charming, although we could see that the staff had to work hard! Busy and modestly staffed. They had run out of fillet steaks by the time we arrived, but the sirloin was good too

It was so good the French onion soup to the steak woowwww. If o had space for dessert I would of had it haha.

This is one of our ‘go to’ restaurants in Cardiff. We have never been disappointed with the food which has always been beautifully cooked. We tend to choose from the a la carte menu, but there is a lunchtime special menu available . Quite a good wine list.

What a little gem. I didn’t know about this restaurant until I visited today with friends. A table had been booked for 21 of us. I had a house white and my friend a house rose. They were both lovely wines. Most of us ordered the two-course special at £17.95. I had chicken in a mushroom sauce with chips and dessert was crepe’s. We had a slight wait but it was because it was freshly cooked - beautiful. All the staff were superb even when we all wanted to pay separately. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and will be visiting again.

The food was okay not great. We had steak frites for mains and I was disappointed it did not come with sauce, I found it quite dry. I went here for my mums and brother birthday and did write this on our reservations but felt that it was not acknowledged. Overall, the staff were lovely

Booked well in advance table for six adults upon arrival we were seated promptly, great seats and lovely surroundings. Wasn’t busy at all our young waitress eventually asked us if we’d like some drinks these were brought to us soon after When we were ready to order our food we asked for sides of bread and garlic bread to be brought to us prior to our starters. We ordered some drinks again at the same time along with a jug of water. The drinks were again served promptly, didn’t take the several empty bottles already placed waiting for her. One of the sides was brought out shortly when we asked for the jug of water again as we still hadn’t received it. Five minutes later we asked her where the garlic bread was, as we hadn’t received that either. Twenty minutes later our main meals turned up along with the garlic bread still no water. We wasn’t asked how our meals were whilst eating them. The meals were small and bland and the service throughout was nonexistent our first and last visit to cote. Service was so poor that my daughter was adamant that I requested to remove the service charge something I’ve never done before Very poor

Cardiff was full for a concert but the staff and food here were amazing. Well done for coping!

It’s quite a nice French style restaurant. The steak was a bit too hard which I didn’t really enjoy. The starter was quite delicious though. The sides were quite basic and normal. The tomatoes were serve just as how they are. The staff was quite kind.However they took too long to serve the food.

Food was ok but nothing special. It was expensive for what we got and the flavours were nothing to write home about. I won't be looking to return - not because it was bad, but because there are better places out there with better value and more tasty food than this.

Disappointing experience from an avid Cote fan. Service abysmal that put a real damper on evening which is a shame as prior visits to Cotes all over the UK have always been so positive. The evening was captured best with “Can we” “Can we order drinks please”? “Can we order food please”? “Can we order another bottle of wine please”? “Can we order desserts please”? You would think they don’t want to run a business! The restaurant was not busy and there were plenty of staff - just noone doing their job attentively. No one checked on us and we really weren’t looked after. Cardiff Bay provides a much better experience. To top it off the restaurant closes at 10pm on a Friday night - what is that about? So no after dinner drinks or a coffee. I would have thought 11pm would be standard. Very worried about the manager who is possibly unwell with a terrible tremor to his hands when serving our plates. Hope he is ok.

Grace was an excellent hostess! Booked for a Saturday night, and she provided us with great service. The food was great, and would highly recommend the chocolate mousse for dessert and crispy whitebait and calamari as the starters. Can't wait to return again :)

Mia was a the perfect hostess 5* Servive

Always reliable, great service and food and easy on the wallet.

Perfect, perfect, perfect! Grace and Miya were absolutely amazing and treated us like royalty!! Will definitely be back for the service alone but the food is always a solid 20/10 !! PHENOMENAL!!

I like the French toasts with berries and vanilla cream fresh, you have to try them

Went here with a large group of traveling overseas tourists. Had to pre order from two options. So ordered the ratatouille. The dish I was served was nothing like a ratatouille. Happy that I could change my dish, but was disappointed that the ratatouille wasn't what i expected. Wish we could have ordered from more options, as what we were offered was very basic. We are paying a bomb for this tour, and I expected more!!

My friend and I had a lovely time at Cote. We had a lovely welcome on our arrival, we're able to choose a table. We were served by the lovely Lara, who gave us good advice about our drinks and food. We had the set menu and both courses were delicious. The room ambience was delightful.

I go here one or two times a month, what I like about it is that it does not usually require a booking and is peaceful and not overcrowded at lunch unless an obviously busy day like an event or sunny weekend. I usually get the set menu, but have on occasions branched out. The service is usually good, but never stand out and usually the same experience applies for the food. I've actually had a few bad experiences over the years here with rude staff e.g. one time when meeting friends here the guy at reception was very rude to me stopped me from entering the restaurant as he said they was full blocking the entrance, I said I was meeting friends and then he asked me who the reservation name was under, as there were like six people it could be and I did not know everyones last name in the group, which I explained, also did not have my phone on me as he told me to ring them and he said I could not come in. Luckily my friend had saw from inside the restaurant barged past the rude receptionist and said he's with us and took me to the table. On another occasion while eating with family some of the dishes came out cold and the waitress also snapped at my sister telling her to move her plate and it was obvious she needed to move her plate. So she could put down the food, actually no so obvious when you are trying to have a conversation. I would never go here for breakfast again as they can never seem to get poached eggs right, despite being specific on what I wanted. As in runny in the centre with all the egg white cooked, and not partially cooked on the outside with some snotty egg whites still on the inside. I highly suggest the restaurant get the temperature and timings right for this, as its not that difficult and not repeatedly bring out wrongly cooked eggs after the third attempt they brought out a hard boild egg. Also if you want breakfast Bills do a better eggs Benedict with a full piece of cured ham on each egg for the same price not little shreds of ham sprinkled on top like COTE. And they managed to sort out some consistency on their poached eggs.

I had a wonderful birthday at Cote today. Honestly couldn’t have asked for anything better, I felt overjoyed with the service and attentiveness. I don’t drink alcohol and they offered a complimentary bottle of 0% sparkling wine for the non drinkers on the table and then a bottle of fizz for the drinkers for my birthday and a birthday brownie and ice cream, even received a card from Cote. So thankful for the staff and I would definitely return for a birthday again and recommended to anyone looking for somewhere for a celebration. Thank you so much.

Food and drink was lovley and all round a lovley experience will definitely be back soon

Great experience - food, drink, waiting staff - all well done, nice ambience, set menu was a winner:- whitebait, sea bass and wafer thin crêpes were all delicious

Excellent authentic French food and great selection of wines. Even try their fixed price menu - great value.

Food was very good but I wished if they served it more quickly

Not to the standard I expected given the general decor. The food took far too long to arrive. I would expect an establishment of this type to know that hot food goes on hot plates, not on cold or lukewarm plates. It was not clear that there is a 10% service charge added to the bill - it is on the bill itself, in small print, at the bottom where it says "a 10% optional service charge has been added to the bill". Ordinarily I would have questioned this at the time of payment had i seen it or been aware of it - the lighting is not exactly bright enough to be able to see clearly everything om the bill, the total is in much bigger print and as it was within budget I didn't query it. If a service charge is optional it should be at the point of payment to be asked if you want to pay it - other establishments have this option on the card reader and there is no reason to be so secretive about it. Those reasons are sufficient for me to say that I would not rush back.

Went for lunch with 2 friends yesterday. Starter of scallops disappointing (very small & not seared) but nothing compared to the main course of mussels that were rank, clearly off and were smelt before seen. Sent back and waited 45 minutes for replaced order of salad nicoise with tuna that was dry and over cooked. The only shining light in this debacle was our waitress, Miya. She was attentive, kind and embarrassed. Will never recommend Cote or waste £££ again

Booked a table ahead of the pink concert on the 11th June 2024. We arrived at 5.15pm which allowed us nearly 2 hours before we needed to leave. Our initial impression wasn’t good, then it got worse as time went on. Upon arrival we were greeted by the host, gave our details and then waited along with everybody else to be seated, the original host disappeared upstairs and after around 5 mins we were asked by now a different host if we had a reservation, we complied and were told they would see if our table was ready. 2nd host went upstairs and came back promptly to say it will be 5 mins. We patiently watched everybody be seated, those who arrived before and after us. After around 20 mins of waiting, the same 2nd host came over to us to ask if he could help us! Obviously he had no recollection of us so we again shared our details. We were then seated within 5 mins in what looked like a half empty upstairs. We quickly decided our drinks and food orders knowing time was quickly passing and had ordered by 5.45pm. A forcasse was ordered to come out with only the mains ordered (belly pork, salmon and 2 x stroganoff) this was delivered within 10 mins. The bread sat untouched on the table for the next 30 mins whilst we watched everybody get there orders. During this time our original waitress paid no attention to us at all. At 6.30pm we managed to grab the attention of another waitress (Mia) who listened to our queries, they checked the iPad, initally not being able to find our order then eventually finding it after a lot of up and down scrolling. Mia then told us they would go and find out the issue in the kitchen, they returned to confim ours was being cooked and would be out ASAP. We completely understand there was a wait on food as the restaurant was extremely busy but when people who arrived approx 15mins later than us recieved their food, we knew there was a problem. We were offered a round of drinks which we declined as we were quickly running out of time before the concert, Mia then suggested due to the fact we were approaching an hour after ordering we speak to the manager. The gentleman that arrived was the same person who greeted us ‘host 1’ who listened and told us he would sort something out on the bill. The food eventually arrived at 6.55pm, 3 out of the 4 meals were luke warm and despite the offer of it being warmed up again by Mia, we just didn’t have time. Mia said they would sort the bill and how sorry they were. We ate minimal food as it was discusting and promptly left. We can’t thank Mia enough as they solely tried, but unfortunately we left hungry and disappointed after waiting for nearly 2 hours. Worst experience and tainted our whole evening.

Had a meal before going to the P!nk concert. It was obviously super busy but meal was served promptly and was absolutely delicious. We all had the same, sea bass with a side of their triple cooked chips. Thank you so much.

When I am in Cardiff I usually eat at Côte, either in the city centre or down in Cardiff Bay. Both are great. Yesterday's visit (20 June 2024) was as good as ever, the welcome, the ambience, the food and our server, Dean. He made us feel like valued guests, and was very professional in his work.

Beautiful food, excellent service. Very friendly and helpful staff who knows their food and can advise on choices

Went yesterday, service was terrible. About 5 groups of people eating at restaurant, so empty. We ordered food at 5:50, we didnt get steak until 6:30, 40 minutes to fry 4 steaks when no one else was there was so slow, we told multiple waitresses and other members of staff if they could speed up the process due to the fact we have a concert that starts at 7. We didnt get the desert until 6:53, 7 minutes before the concert started. Completely ruined the experience because of how stressed we were, we missed the beginning of the concert due to this. I usually like cote and think their service is good, but this was appalling.

Amazing restaurant, food was outstanding. Raspberry mohito was amazing. Friendly staff, will definitely be back and have already recommended you.

Great food and service even at a very busy time our waitress Cadi was so kind and attentive. Good value and high quality food and drinks. I was so impressed with the menu can't wait to go back 😋

The team are lovely. My guest has a number of allergies and they brought them a tablet where they could check every ingredient. I have not seen that before. A wonderful option. My steak was perfectly cooked.

Had a very long wait for the food but when it did show up eventually. It was worth the wait.

Ate from set menu. Food was nice and plentiful. Waiters seemed to have a problem holding onto things, with lots of dropped plates, glassware and even a huge tray of desserts whilst we were there which made it for a lively experience dodging the flying debris if nothing else

Mid shop lunch - very slick. I had beef bourginon W mash. Very tasty. Also more recently went for early start brunch when Wales played Scotland. Had such a good time I forgot to take photos. Staff coped very well W raucous customers and business. Thankyou for a great start to a memorable day. Update... went again last Sunday... food and service even better. Thankyou

the supervisor or manager did the booking as we were a walk in. I told her that I had a dairy intolerance and then i was served the steak and frites with butter all over the steak. The table host wasn’t informed. the meal was replaced but I had already lost my appetite by that point and i was asked if i was finished with the dish less than 5 minutes after the food arrived. Wouldn’t recommend because of the lack of professionalism and caution for food allergies and intolerances.

Wonderful food, and fantastic service. Dean our waiter was extremely patient with us being indecisive!

We had a really excellent time. Great food, great waiter, great atmosphere! Dean was absolutely marvellous - he looked after us really well. I think he is one of the best waiters we had - so a very special thank you to him.

Wheelchair accessible wait for portable ramp. There is a disabled toilet. Stunning inside. Staff really helpful and kind. The Waiter was polite offered really great service. Food and wine always 10/10 here. Thank you

Very happy with the Cardiff central restaurant every time! The service is speedy (so perfect when we're on a time limit at work) and food options are healthy in comparison to other restaurants in town. 10/10 would recommend.

The waiter was great, he saved the day as chef had a few issues that should have been resolved in the kitchen. Lack of management needs to be looked at

Can’t recommend enough!! The customer service was outstanding and the food was even better! Makes a lovely setting for a date night and the menu had something for everyone. I went for the beef cheek bourguignon and it was one of the best meals I’ve ever had, 100% recommend. Special mention to our waitress Ginny, she had briefly mentioned she was relatively new, never would have guessed, amazing.

Absolutely delicious food and cocktails. We were lucky enough to sit outside in the glorious weather. Inside the restaurant were ample seating and beautifully presented and decorated with an upstairs area too. Toilet facilities, spotless. Staff were very polite, friendly and accommodating. We were impressed as a first visit and plan to return with family.

I have been to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We were in 4. My daughter (11) was so happy that she received a birthday card, which made her experience ever better. We had 3 steaks with fries and pasta. This time, my daughter steak (type of meat) was different from last time. Everything was very good. Great customer service and, in particular, great manager (I believe he is the manager: great person). Another good reason to come back is for their staff: very polite and make feeling you very welcome. We had again a great experience, and we look forward to coming back.

My steak was served medium, but I asked for it to be well done.

We hadn’t eaten at Cote for quite a while , so we decided to try it . What a great decision , we had the “ Sunday Deal” , half a roast chicken , 8oz sirloin steak and belly pork to share , with dauphinoise potatoes and 2 sides of spinach and green beans . We were asked how we wanted the steak , we said rare and it was perfect , the chicken and belly pork were again cooked perfectly . The accompanying sauces were great , we asked for extra helpings of the mushroom and peppercorn as they were outstanding. We had “ boring “ calamares to start , they were great , tender calamari and lovely crisp coating . The service was fantastic , very friendly yet professional , all in all a great meal
