Editorial Review for Cote Sud – by Wendy Weiden
The Scene
From the sunny yellow walls and enclosed balcony to the French-accented waiters, the key word here is "charming." The candlelit dining room, perched a story above the Castro's bustle, manages to be both open and intimate--a clever combination of the high, vaulted ceiling and thoughtfully placed tables in nooks and corners.
The Food
The menu of French favorites changes seasonally and is largely traditional, although skillful preparation and delightful service keep it contemporary. Typical starters might include plump, poached mussels or a Sonoma mixed greens salad. For entrees, hearty cassoulet and succulent, braised rabbit are often dished out tableside from individual dutch ovens. When it's on the menu, tender rack of lamb, served with a tasty, herb-infused polenta, is perfectly pink. Don't fill up before dessert--the menu includes such classics as ultrarich chocolate mousse and a classic creme brulee.

My girlfriend and I had dinner over the weekend for our visit to Cote Sud. Since we have been dating, we have been dying to try out a French restaurant in SF. We came across Cote Sud through this website, checked out the video, and based upon what we saw called up and made a reservation for two. When we got there we were sitted over looking Castro's 18th St.....seated faily promtly and not to mention a ton of wine to choose from. We ordered up a bottle of red and tried out their delicous menu. I was taking back by the presentation of the food, the service, and the wine selection.
Pros: intimate setting, great ambiance, good food and a wide selection of wine
Cons: none
