La Côte in Wexford

Unlike other reviewers, we had an awful experience at La Côte. After we were seated we waited for 10 minutes before the table next to us (who was seated after us) was given their dinner and drinks menus, at which point I had to request menus for us. Then they only gave us dinner menus and I had to ask, twice, for a drinks menu. Then I noticed that all the other tables had a carafe of tap water, which was not offered to us. Terrible service. The menu was limited. We were looking forward to some great seafood options on the menu since this is a seafood restaurant, but they only had three mains choices, all white fish variations. I would have left a lower rating than three stars, except that when our food arrived it was ok.

From the moment we walked through the door this small but spotless clean restaurant was spectacular SERVICE EXCELLENT FOOD EXCELLENT 👏👏👏👌

Ella served us, what a lovely, lovely, bright soul! Made our evening beautiful. The food was INCREDIBLE. As a couple, we have literally travelled all over the world, for the price you pay, the portions are decent, flavors were on point and like I said I want a tub full of that potato gratin (soo cozy and just divine!) We ordered the monk and sole, we also had salmon appetizers AMAZING.. Thank you for making our first dinner out in Ireland memorable. The vibe was cosy, the service was kind and bright, and the food was a hit. Thank you once again. We hope to see you again.

Amazing food. We had the sole and hake. Both were cooked to perfection. And we had one the best waitresses ever. Thank you Ella!

A cosy restaurant opposite the fishing boats on Wexford Quay serving a carefully curated menu of local seafood. Fantastic fish and the best chips our guests had ever eaten! 🍟

I couldn't be more pleased to recommend this place! The food was one of the best I ever had. I ordered monkfish for mains, and the apple crumble for dessert. Even the bread on the house, with salted butter and olives, was good. Thoroughly enjoyed the aesthetic and the layers of taste in food, and the service provided.

Our 2nd visit and just as it was on our previous visit. The food is exceptional and cooked to perfection. We ordered the Hake & Lemon Sole and paired the food with a beautiful bottle of Hungarian white wine. The team are super friendly, knowledgeable and made us so welcome. We have to give a big shout out to Paul for not only the wonderful food but actually taking the time to say hello, we could both sense his passion which is totally understandable why his cooking the best food in Wexford. Thank you Paul and team for another beautiful experience. I must add we planned our trip to Wexford around this restaurant it's definitely worth visiting.

Wonderful starter, mains lovely. Staff and service great

An unassuming exterior belies a food lovers experience within. Always worry when a restaurant has 20 or 30 choices. Can't be fresh. This place keeps it simple and memorable. We both ate from the early bird menu. The food was first class and whoever is producing it would easily command a spot in a much bigger city. Taste was exceptional and fish cooked perfectly. Put this place on your list to visit or miss out.

When we come Wexford, we try to visit Cote. Perhaps the most reassuring thing about this restaurant over the years is the quality of the food has remained at a high standard. Staff are helpful and pleasant and they have not followed the incredibly annoying and growing trend of interrupting diners while eating to ask whether everything is okay. Bravo ! On our latest visit, my wife had the goat's cheese starter following a pork pie mains. I had the pork belly to start followed by a mains of plaice. All perfectly cooked, flavoured and presented. For the quality of the food and service, Cote is great value. A really excellent meal !
