We were in the neighborhood doing some shopping and one of the shoppes mentioned Côte. It was nearby and we walked in during a busy lunch time. The accommodated us very nicely considering we didn’t have a reservation. I adore French food but never get to go when dining with my daughter who is gluten and dairy free. However, they had so many items to choose from for her. The food was outstanding!!! Cannot wait to go back.

Unreal restaurant especially if you have dietary restrictions. Nearly the entire menu is gluten free which is awesome because they have local delicacies like scotch eggs and haggis that you can’t find GF elsewhere. They were super diligent with other allergies and dietary requirements. Also, make sure you check out the mushroom emporium in the basement!!

Very nice dining atmosphere at this venue and there was an acoustic music gig as well on Halloween. There's a gluten free menu too which is great. Overall, the service was very friendly, especially from Mallory the waitress who served me. The shop could be stocked with a wider variety of souvenir items though.

I went for the unlimited tapas last night and I explicitly said multiple times that I’m allergic to gluten and they fed me 3 gluten tacos. In which I had to go hospital after the dinner. - they still charged me for the meal.

This is a bar focused restaurant, so it's quite casual. Gluten-free churros, with delicious dip- highly recommended. Yum! The roasted beets ranged from cold to hot but mostly luke warm. Beets tasted good, but I was bothed by the temperature inconsistency. I was told this was normal.

Went with my mum and aunt, mum is coeliac. Both rated their food 10/10 (and are usually a little fussy). My burger was great, chips fluffy and generous portions. Beef burger slightly pink and tender, gluten free fish and chips crumbed batter lovely and crisp. Service very friendly and warm.

Oct 2022 - OMG yes I highly recommend this eatery. I think I ate dinner here 4+ times out of the week. The employees were friendly and attentive. I tried different items off the menu, but I must admit I always went back to the pizza. That dough and the way they hand make it were stupendous. They also offer gluten-free penne and spaghetti. Great location and the prices were reasonable, hence the multiple trips there. Oh oh they make their own beer, I had multiple Hopo Lagers. I believe they have 4 that they craft. Great choice for lunch or dinner. You can join their rewards program too and receive discounts, just mention it to the servers and they will adjust the bill.

Really busy Edinburgh Tattoo time but still managed to fit us in (party of four). Not any good if you have mobility issues as you have to go down stairs. It doesn't look much from the outside but warm atmosphere inside also have a great terrace area for eating outside. Now to the food when the waitress came first thing asked was if anyone had any allergies I'm coeliac so was glad to hear they are aware was given a list of all the things that had anything in that could make me ill giving me the chance to make a decision unfortunately most things did contain gluten but I asked if it was possible to have the lamb chops without haggis girl checked with chef (she was new and only 14 bless) she came back and said chef could do lamb chops with mashed potatoes and veg with a red wine gravy all gf and it was absolutely delicious and I had no side effects so obviously no cc. only reason for 4 stars is the stairs going in. Would recommend this place to eat.

Top 5 Ever, not hyperbole. For context, over the decades we have eaten our way around Europe and across North America in establishments from 3-star Michelin to local Cafes. The dinner we experienced at this restaurant was definitely one of the best we've ever had. What made it so special? Let's start with the service - impeccable yet still fun and engaging. Now the food. The depth of flavour in ALL the dishes, the presentation of ALL the dishes and the little extra touches of "surprise flavour undertones" was mind-blowing. The Red Deer starter was actually indescribable. Tender, a tiny bit of spice and a tiny bit of sweet. Perfection. The Duck (one of my favorite items on any menu) was in season, was cooked to M.R. perfection. Tender, with easy cut skin. The vegetarian tortellini (ordered although neither of us are vegetarian) was brilliant. They take 3 days(!) to make the sauce just right. As a side, The smoky mashed potatoes are a must if they're available. All this created in a small galley kitchen on a ship. Gluten and dairy free was ZERO problem for the chef. The Negroni and the rose cocktail just completed the evening.
