COTE BRASSERIE

Côte Brasserie is like that friend who dresses well but has a questionable taste in music. You’ll get a solid experience—great service and a cozy atmosphere, but sometimes the food hits a flat note. The calamari starter? Top-notch. But if you’re expecting the menu to be as rich as your expectations, prepare for a letdown. A diner lamented the stale bread and a menu that’s been cut down like it’s on a diet.

Service shines bright like a diamond, but some dishes come out looking like they’re not ready for their close-up. If you’re celebrating something special, the staff will shower you with compliments and maybe even a card to mark the occasion. Just don’t expect to be wowed by every bite, and you should be good to go.
