I'm saddened to write this as Côte used to be one of my favorite spots. We always gather here for our Christmas catch-up, but this time it was dreadful. Upon arrival, we waited a long time to order drinks, and it felt as though the staff were overwhelmed. All eight of us ordered from the set Christmas menu, but when the starters arrived, three of us received small shrimp instead of the expected king prawns. The waitress dismissed our inquiry. The main course was served cold, resembling a ready meal, with raw carrots and no vegetables, and the potatoes were simply boiled new potatoes, not as advertised. When I asked to see the manager about the discrepancies, she dismissively stated they had run out of what was on the menu. The food was inedible, and two of us sent our meals back. Instead, I requested a cheese plate, which arrived with minuscule cheese portions and only two crackers. The service was poor, and the manager appeared unkempt and unsure of how to handle the situation. I will never return; this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had.
