La Côte

Extremely disappointing. The hake was a tiny slab, unseasoned, on an uninspiring pool of supposedly bouillabaisse sauce. The slab was lukewarm at best. I would contrast this effort with an excellent restaurant in Lyme Regis where care and imagination is taken with the food. There was little evidence that your kitchen applies itself similarly. I was greatly looking forward to your restaurant.

My first time eating here food stunning staff so so welcoming the food was just cooked so well be defeintly back myself and partener really enjoyed ourself

Always, absolutely impeccable service and food. Value for money is second to none.

Superb food. Excellent waiting staff. Warm friendly atmosphere. We had tasting menu. Choice of meat of fish for each course. Very good house wine.
Very good prix qualitie rapport.

We ate here at the end of September on a Saturday evening. We had the tasting menu, fantastic value for €40 each and absolutely beautiful food. Truly delicious, everything that was served was gorgeous. My partner is not a fan of seafood and he was absolutely bowled over by the selection of non seafood options. The service was fantastic as well, both waitresses on the night were wonderful. They were exceptionally busy but were generous with their time and friendly. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal with wonderful service.

So pleased to have found and visited La Cote resturant. Fabulous food served in tapas style courses. Great chat too with very busy staff including owner of the resturant. We will definately visit the resturant again when life returns to normal.

We dined before opera on 3 evenings during the festival, 4 on 2 nights and 3 on another night. Almost all dishes were tried during the visits and there was unanimous approval of all dishes. Service was excellent and done with a smile.
We will be returning for next year's festival visit.

"The best restaurant in Wexford"
We ate here twice during the opera festival and both times the food and service were excellent! Outstanding dishes were the salmon tartare and the monkfish. Everything we ate was elegant and delicious. We will return if we are ever in Wexford again...

Excellent food, Attentive staff and superb value for money. I have been here 4 times and never disappointed.

Fine dining food at reasonable price and without pomp!
After a beautiful day in the woods of the Irish Heritage Centre, we decided that we would have dinner around 6.00 at a mainly seafood restaurant. La Cote, overlooking Wexford harbour, seemed to tick all the boxes and it indeed did.

The restaurant is smallish, approx 30-35 seats, and smartly decorated in fresh greys and blues and local themed paintings. There was no loud music so one could actually hold a conversation. The staff were plentiful and pleasant and service was excellent.

The wine list was extensive and carried a good selection from S. Africa, US, Chile and Europe.
The restaurant opens from 5.30 till 9.00 but for special periods e.g. Wexford Opera Festival, the hours are extended.

Now , for the food. We were presented with Early Bird and A La Carte menus. Both provided an excellent selection to choose from. We were also told that vegetarian and coeliac options were also available. At this stage some delicious breads arrived. My favourite was the walnut sourdough, freshly baked, and just like a sponge cake but with a nice crisp crust. I should say at this point that virtually everything on the menu is freshly made from scratch in house, down to the little crackers on the cheeseboard and the ice cream.

All of the dishes we chose were excellent - Starters :fish risotto with nettle pesto and beetroot wafers of goat's cheese: Mains: Glazed Duck breast with gratin potatoes and broccoli and Lemon sole with carrot puree and lemon reduction. Dessert was a very unusual beetroot cake with a cinnamon infused crust that resembled a chocolate coating accompanied by freshly made ice cream that my wife raved over. I had a cheeseboard which was generous, had a nice selection and came with grapes, crab apple puree and very nice in-house crackers. very nice overall. We will be back for sure, next time in Wexford.

"WOW!"
We asked our server at our hotel for a really nice place for our 49th anniversary dinner! We got a winner. Made reservation online, easy parking, great menu and Chef Hynes even came out to see everyone! My risotto was the best I've ever eaten and my wife's fish was cooked to perfection with fantastic potatoes au gratin! Our server Alli just took care of us like gold! The cost was reasonable for a top flite establishment, too. VERY satisfied customers!
