Lunchtime visit, pre-theatre. As expected, the restaurant was busy. Service was slow because of the latter, but there seemed to be a lack of waiting staff. Small portion for the cost. Even so, the food was enjoyable.

We have been dining at Cote restaurant in Cardiff Bay for many years. The things we enjoy are * the generally attentive service and the friendliness of the staff * the quality of the food and its presentation * the value for money It’s a good family restaurant which is popular at peak times, so it can be noisy
