Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse offering tableside grilling & tasting menus
"You watched your friend selflessly bend over backwards for a coward who dumped them with a text. They deserve to be pampered, which is why you’re taking them to Cote. Unlike an ex, Cote knows how to pamper and take care of people. You don’t have to lift a finger at this Korean steakhouse—and they won’t let you. All of the meat flipping for the tabletop grill is done for you. They slice and sizzle everything. There’s something comforting about it, in an infantile sort of way. The only way you can go to Cote without a reservation is during their daily happy hour from 5-7pm. It's only available at the standing bar and is first come, first served. The menu is limited, but they have some tasty small plates exclusive to happy hour. Other than that, your best chance at a good weekend table is to book a month out. But they do lunch here now, and those tables are much easier to find (and the butcher’s feast is available for lunch)." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"It’s hard to book a weekend dinner at Cote during tourist season unless you are cool with eating at 11pm. Even in summer, it’s not the easiest thing to find a Saturday night table at a reasonable hour. But it will still be easier than during months that end with “ber.” It’ll also be a nice time to walk in for their lovely daily happy hour, or schedule a leisurely Friday lunch while your boss thinks you’re at the dentist. The only way you can go to Cote without a reservation is during their daily Happy Hour from 5-7pm. It's only available at the standing bar and first come, first served. The menu is limited, but they have some tasty small plates exclusive to Happy Hour. Other than that, your best chance at a good weekend table is to book a month out. But they do lunch here now, and those tables are much easier to find (and the butcher’s feast is available for lunch)." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
"Cote nails that classic steak and martini combo, except there’s nothing that feels particularly classic about this place. This is a good thing. Cote is a steakhouse of the future, with its sleek, dark dining room that makes you feel like you’re inside a luxurious spaceship in the year 4023. Their Proper Martini (made with your choice of gin, vodka, or both) is exactly the kind of martini we’d take aboard a spaceship to show the future population of Mars what a perfect Earth martini tasted like. The only way you can go to Cote without a reservation is during their daily Happy Hour from 5-7pm. It's only available at the standing bar and first come, first served. The menu is limited, but they have some tasty small plates exclusive to Happy Hour. Other than that, your best chance at a good weekend table is to book a month out.

"A Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse in the Miami Design District staged a Cadillac collaboration that served a five-course, dosirak-inspired picnic inside a stationary seven-seater Escalade IQ with pull-out dining trays. The evening began at the restaurant's sleek, low-lit bar with a Paloma-like welcome drink before guests were escorted outside; no alcohol was served in the vehicle, but two mocktails — Finesse (coconut water, Earl Grey, raspberry, lemon) and Downtime (Aplos Calm, orange, hibiscus, lemon) — were offered. Courses arrived with theatrical presentation (red-checkered trays, placards, Hello Kitty and bear-shaped bento boxes): gogi cha (USDA Prime short rib broth), a Hello Kitty bento revealing steak tartare topped with caviar and milk toast, beef bulgogi gimbap and yubuchobap tofu-skin bundles, a “Butcher’s Bowl” showcasing filet mignon, 45-day dry-aged ribeye cap, Japanese A5 wagyu, galbi and banchan, and a strawberry soft-serve dessert. The plush, massage-equipped leather seats, attentive service, and street-side spectacle created an unexpectedly luxurious, Instagram-ready experience. The complimentary pop-up ran June 20–21 with reservations via Resy." - Alona Martinez
"Cote should be on your shortlist for any sort of big, celebratory blowout dinner. Especially one you’d like to involve meat. The Korean steakhouse is excellent—both the experience and the food. The staff take turns tending to beef sizzling away on the grill located in the center of the table. You will probably end up ordering multiple rounds of the wonderful cocktails. The restaurant has a sleek design that makes you feel like you’re eating 1,000 years in the future. And when added all together, these things make Cote one of the most exciting special occasion restaurants in the city. If it’s your first time here, definitely start with the Butcher’s Feast, a $74 per person tasting menu that ends with a little cup of soy sauce caramel soft serve. The only way you can go to Cote without a reservation is during their daily happy hour from 5-7pm. It's only available at the standing bar and is first come, first served. The menu is limited, but they have some tasty small plates exclusive to happy hour. Other than that, your best chance at a good weekend table is to book a month out. But they do lunch here now, and those tables are much easier to find (and the butcher’s feast is available for lunch)." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
