We had 5 main dishes, 4 desserts (one for 2), 3 teas, 4 beers, 2 starters and the bill was pretty okay, slightly under 200 with the service included. The food was at a pretty decent level but here the company is a bit divided, some of the party loved it, and others would not found it as good as other similar places, expecting more from the spicing. The Fougasse was great according to everyone, soft, testeful, warm, fluffy - we loved it! The deserts we tried were all great! (the Christmas special for 2, the coffee one and spiced Crème Brule I will never recommend the steak tartare and find it the worst I have tried. This is a matter of personal preference, but I usually eat steak tartare and love it. About the atmosphere: We went at 16:00 and it was already crowded and noisy, one can hardly hear their friends and have to raise their voice, that leads to more noise. Going there I would recommend you to avoid the peak hours if you will like to enjoy your company. The staff helped us as at first they did not find the reservation and did not expect us, but they fixed the mistake without extra stress. I did nto expect that we have to fight for the staff's attention throughout the dinner. Our table was full of finished pots and glasses but we had to ask twice to clean up so we can have it comfier. There was one of the girls that was not our waiter and saved our experience, being super friendly and helpful. Overall I would like to return, but it is conditional.

We celebrated my son's birthday at the Cote Brasserie and everything was superb! Delicious food, a lovely atmosphere and fantastic staff. My son and daughter had the French onion soup, which was as good as any we've ever had in Paris. We also had the steak frites, Cote burger and the tomato tart fine, all were delicious and perfectly cooked. My son said it was the best burger he'd ever tasted. 10/10 would absolutely dine here again.

Have been at the Cote Manchester restaurant a few times and can say it is a solid choice for dinner. My go to dish is the Ribeye steak. Steak is cooked well and tender, with good flavour. To point out that when you upgrade your steak for the Ribeye, you need to pay extra for garlic butter. Instead, if you don’t upgrade would be included in the price. Having said that, I enjoyed the times I stopped by to have dinner.
