Excellent service,food and atmosphere. Onion soup fantastic flavor! Pork belly and fillet steak super Wine (Chablis) perfect.. Well done. Recommend thoroughly. A must when in London Town 😍
Friendly efficient staff. Good value food. A bit noisy, but that's because of the acoustics and the fact there were a lot of people there, especially taking advantage of the early evening menu.
Lovely service, as always, thank you! My soup was not quite hot enough, but was dealt with,, delicious bread when asked for, preferred it to the brioche with the chicken parfait! Overall always a pleasure to dine at Côte Kensington!
Maitre D was warm and welcoming. Good service, lovely food and a good atmosphere. Good wine selection too. We come to this restaurant whenever we visit the Royal Albert Hall as it provides a great start or end to the evening.
This is great place for a meal pre or post Royal Albert Hall and last evenings experience was no exception. Very busy but still great food and service.
Though very busy, the service was extremely good. The food was very tasty, and as we ordered from the set menu, it was great value for money.
Good service, beautiful sea bream. Very much enjoyed our Sunday lunch. Can recommend the rose Cote de Provence. Thank you Cote in High Street Kensington.
Very happy with the menu that was available for an offer that we were not aware of. It was great value. We always find the service very good.
Cote is one of the most consistent chains with reasonable food for the money, a good value wine list and pleasant service. The choice and quality on the cheaper of the two set menus is not what it was however, no doubt because they have held their prices which may have been a mistake. The Kensington branch is not their best outlet though due to the cramped space and poor accoustics in the larger middle room.
Absolutely fabulous. Food was delicious. Service superb. Everything very good indeed. The restaurant is in a great location just off Kensington High Street. We went for the £16.50 2 course dinner option, which is really good value.
We had a very good meal as usual. Our waitress was attentive and nice and the restaurant was full for lunch. We will be back before long.
Very pleasant pre- concert meal. Fast, efficient service & lovely food. Cote Brassiere is always excellent value for money. We will definitely dine here again.
very small but cosy place with good service and nice atmosphere
Love this restaurant - visit at least once a month mostly with girlfriends but the service can be really slow as they get quite busy!
Friendly service, although as restaurant was very busy a bit slow on occasion, good food and good value for money, surroundings were noisy; did not ask so do not know if there are any quieter areas.
Enjoyed a very pleasant late breakfast on Sunday - having travelled up from the West country early. Lovely atmosphere and helpful service (very busy so one or two individuals who hadn't booked had to be turned away - but this was managed in an exemplary manner as I happened to be in a place to observe). Food, as normal for Cote, excellent value for money. First time visit here. Many thanks.
Great location, fabulous atmosphere with attentive but not intrusive service. As ever a reliably good and well priced quality menu for both food and drink! Great for a relaxed catch up with old friends!
Excellent vegetarian food. House wine good too. Excellent vegetarian food. House wine good too. Excellent vegetarian food. House wine good too. Excellent vegetarian food. House wine good too.
The restaurant was very busy but as we had pre-ordered we were served in about 10/15 mins. Meals were delicious and the staff very friendly and efficient. Strongly recommended but pre-order for faster service.
very good standard of food. Our waitress was very efficient and friendly the choice of wine was excellent. The restaurant was very busy but service was spot on
Service was excellent and very friendly. Range of items on the menu was extensive. Wine list not extensive but concentrated on quality. Our band of friends returns to Cote every six months as it offers very good value for money.
This Cote I have been too many times. It is close to Paddington, where I meet my friends from Henley for lunch. It is a spacious restaurant with good food and friendly staff.
Kensington restaurant is one of my favourite of this group. Atmosphere diners friendly and helpful staff love the layout with tables not on top of each other. Food is very good but not much of it if you eat fish; have to order sides which in turn then with their service charge can be overall quite pricey.
Very nice location in Kensington and nice and friendly staff couldn’t be more accommodating and food was very nice as usual. Would definitely recommend it.
I enjoyed my lunch with a friend. I enjoyed the steak and fritters. The service was good and friendly. Water was placed on the table without having to ask.
Always a nice place to go, service is great. We chose the set menu and it wasn't fantastic, nothing bad just nothing special compared to the usual menu. I guess you get what you pay for (the set menu is very affordable!), so we just know to go for the classic menu next.
Always great and delicious, but make sure you book as it gets full pretty quickly! Cote is y go-to restaurant when in High St Kensington!
Food was excellent as usual however the staff were all different and as they did not know us as regulars our treatment was not as warm and welcoming as it usually is hence only 5 instead of the usual 6++++
Good service, good value for money. Will recommend. It is perfect for casual dine out
We had an excellent meal. The staff are very pleasant and attentive, and the food was delicious and attractively presented. It is extremely good value for money. We have been disappointed by two other London Cotes recently but this came up to the old high standard.
We went for a Halloween supper and had a great time as always!
Good reliable food. First time in Cote Bistro but visited several others before and they do not disappoint. Sadly one of our party was very ill after their starter which rather spoilt our evening - and hers!
Restaurant was busy. We waited a long time for our food which could have been hotter. But was good. Didn’t feel there was enough staff
Another great dining experience at Côte. The food was wonderful.
As always, the food and the atmosphere was great. Service was wonderful.
We went to celebrate my birthday and had a great experience, as always.
Always enjoy eating at cote restaurants. Food is always delicious good value for money friendly helpful staff. Cote restaurants are always first choice for get togethers with friends and family 😍❤️
It was very good. Not exceptional, but really good - both the food and the service. We also like the atmosphere of the place. Would we be again hungry being nearby it would definitely be our favourite choice!
I dine here with friends fairly regularly. They provide Good food, in a warm, friendly atmosphere and good service. Worth a night out here for dinner!
Good service and nice atmosphere. Very quick to correct when there was a mistake in a busy service. Overall happy and would return again
The food was very good, service fine. Very hot despite it being mid October. Overall a good experience. This is not my favourite Cote Brasserie, as it is aways packed but the Cote experience is still good.
Cote Kensington is a lovely restaurant, they have an excellent choice on their a la carte menu and wine list. There is also a option to have a pre or post theatre menu. I would highly recommend for really good French food and a very professional and friendly staff.
Very good but disappointed that they add a service charge to the bill. I like to add my own and would happily have done so but I want to decide the amount - not be advised! It does say that it’s optional but I find that intimidating. Otherwise we enjoyed the meal.
Excellent food and service. Our waiter was charming and helpful, the reception welcoming and the menu interesting and varied. I recommend, but note service charge is included so don't tip twice!
We had a good time on a Friday evening. The place given was excellent spot too. I ordered duck breast with gratin potatoes. It’s definitly the best meal ever I have ever eat. Thank you
Went this evening to Cote restaurant with friends. The ambiance, the friendly attitude of the waiters, and most of all the food made the evening memorable. The food is very tasty, cooked perfectly and succulent! A place to go without hesitation. I highly recommended.
Nice meal at Cote Kensington. The place wasn't very busy and we had a relaxing time. Not the friendliest staff but the service was efficient
We always end up there when visiting London. This time food a bit bland. Male waiter very nice but the female service horrendous,wanted to leave
Very friendly staff and seated in a nice area of the restaurant . The Pre theatre menu is very good value for money at 11.95 for 2 courses. Drinks expensive.
Very good service, lovely food at a reasonable price. Our table was near a busy workstation and on the way to the bathrooms otherwise I would have given max stars
