Côte Richmond

Food was great as always with Cote, But the service was appalling, FOH needs a complete and utter reboot from the top. Lazy management and slapdash team. kingston and Esher always sharp, first Richmond visit, felt like I had walked into a tired, worn out out chain like Bella Italia or the like. Please let me know when you have changed the leadership their, So i can try them again. Any restauranteur could walk in there and likely pinpoint the underlying problem here, lets hope the area manager is sharp enough to save the place.

A very nice meal with lovely service . Busy but our food came quickly so could recommend this branch to anyone. The calamari was particularly nice.

A very good meal from a varied and imaginative menu. Very friendly, pleasant service. Quality ingredients, well prepared. Bonus points for decent strength espresso to finish.

The food as always was absolutely delicious especially Escalope de Veau we also could no leave the restaurant without having calamari which are the best ever! The service was fantastic and we had great time. 10 out of 10.

My choice of food was a little disappointing this time but service was good and staff very pleasant. It was quite noisy and the tables are very close together.

Great atmosphere, our rib eye fillet steaks we had were a quite fatty but this didn't spoil the lovely evening we spent there. The Service was excellent.

The restaurant is excellent value. It has good food, print service and a good selection of wines. I would recommend it for anyone wanting a good night out.

It was an enjoyable and happy experience. The family had good time . The food was good. The staff welcoming and friendly. Restaurant was full.

Nice restaurant: good food, atmosphere and service. The steak, fries and Roquefort butter was really good, as was the fish pie and prawn gratinee starter Worth a trip!

Restaurant t noisy with outside traffic. Staff on the scale of non interest Busy but in a good way. Not my favourite cote prefer teddington

Though arrived very late after Wimbledon tennis staff were very helpful and we were served quickly and efficiently. Ribeye up to usual standards! Consistently reliable and a regular haunt.

We had a lovely time at Cote Bistro Richmond. The staff were pleasant and attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere is always good at any Cote restaurant we've been too - only took 1 point off as it was a special occasion where we were celebrating my husband's 60th birthday and the staff were aware of this and a complementary Kia would have been very welcome :)

Good brunch menu, especially if you get the brunch deal which includes the fruit juice and choice of hot drink. Waiter did not have a good enough level of English and misunderstood some of our requests

Great place to meet friends for lunch! The service is friendly, the food is always good and it is good value too! We particularly like the set lunch menu which changes each month!

A fantastic experience, we were given the table I had requested and the service went above and beyond what I had expected. The food was great, a wonderful evening.

We were a group of 8, we were very well looked after by the team at Cote. The food was great and the service was attentive.

Needed air condition upstairs other than that a perfect visit. Food was excellent, they made the spinach to order (uncreamed) The wine the waiter selected was exactly what we wanted and went perfectly with the meal.

The team at Côte were really warm and friendly. We were going to see a U2 concert and this was an excellent start to the evening.

We went for brunch on a Sunday. The service was slow and they forgot our hot drinks so we didn't have these until the end of the meal. Food was ok.

It was a really nice meal with excellent service and would come back again. Was pretty quiet but it was a really hot day so people were probably outside.

4 . Good all round experience. Early water came with no ice on a sweltering day. Sea bream was really good as was the starters

Food good, atmosphere great, waitress lovely but waited ages for drinks and to order and then even longer for water. Had to ask for refills. So too slow.......... Seems to have slipped in service recently.

Our chicken tasted burnt for some reason although it wasn't, my friend commented on it before me and nobody asked us how our meal was! Not impressed possibly not hurry back ! My husband and friends use the Reigate Cote a lot but forget Richmond Very disappointed as I was treating a friend and was embarrassed Gilly Clarke

Poor food today. Very dry, and for some inexplicable reason, covered in salt, even the salad! Draughty, so much so, another customer asked to be moved. Good attentive service.

Delicious Menu to choose from always, lovely decor and extremely professional all round. Never been disappointed by La Cote where ever I find one, the same criteria will be met. Thank you !

Excellent and varied menu with seasonal specialities. Brilliant service from a waiter called Larbi and Super Value for what we had. I still recommend the tuna nicoise salad-always perfect

Helpful service, delicious menu (particularly for gluten free). A great place to eat particulary for an early evening meal. Excellent value for money. Will visit again soon.

Cote in Richmond was good as always. Food excellent. Service was a bit manic as they were busier Han expected due to the rain but otherwise good

Great meal and staff extremely attentive. Good sized portions. The minute streak and fries is always excellent and good value. As a lover of France, it was great to have verveine tea instead of the normal green tea.

friendly staff and excellent priced breakfast. We sat outside, which again was really lovely. The only thing that slightly let it down was that they were not the quickest- but that could of been because it was a Saturday morning.

A lovely restaurant in Richmond - up to the usual cote standard. Great service and the food was delicious too. We will definitely return soon!

The service was efficient - on a busy Saturday, the food was very good indeed and everything was well done. Good value for money and an overall excellent experience. Thank you

Where to begin: - Requested kids meal be brought out ASAP to allow time to cool down. Was brought out with our starters. - Tuna flatbread over cooked so most of it was crisp - Minute steak over cooked - was dry and bland. - Dessert took over 20 minutes to come out. Would have taken longer but with tired children we paid and left whilst we were still being told its only a few minutes away

Another lovely meal before the theatre. Staff friendly and served us quickly, so we could enjoy two courses in a short time frame. The ingredients were checked so a vegetarian knew the rissito was a suitable choice.

Service was rather slow as the restaurant was very busy.Staff were professional and welcoming. Meal itself was very good- the vegetable side dishes were top quality.

Excellent service and food as always consistently throughout this chain which is why we keep going back. Birthday kirs were a much appreciated and welcomed bonus. Thank you!

Outstanding food and service, great atmosphere and fairly priced! We were welcomed warmly and it just got better from there we have been here several times and it is that important thing for a restaurant - consistent.

staff were lovely as always, very warm and inviting. We sat outside and the staff came out to us on several occasions to ensure that we were okay and didn't need anything further. Sometimes when you sit away from the restaurant you can be forgotten by the staff. This is never the case here. The only thing I would say is that the toilets are not that great. They could most certainly do with some modernisation.

Excellent service, excellent food and excellent atmosphere! All helped with a glass of Kir Royale as we were going to see Buddy Holly at Richmond Theatre. Thank you.

Friendly and helpful staff, however food was a little cold and looked like it had been plated a while ago... unusual for Cote, but generally a good meal.

Lovely as always! Good food, good service and the house wine is delicious! The set menu is always good value for money, changes every month and the choices are very good. Never fails to deliver!

The restaurant was full but despite this the service was excellent service the food very good food and the stafff extremely friendly. Well done all!!

A warm welcome. Choice of tables offered and service was very friendly. As always the standard and choice of food was excellent. A very pleasant experience

Always good atmosphere in this restaurant. Service was relatively quick despite being busy. Only issue was the noise which was still too,loud despite the crowd.

As usual at Cote the service was excellent, the food was good and reasonably priced. A very pleasant atmosphere and we had a very quiet table.

We really enjoyed our Father's day breakfast, the service and food was lovely. The restaurant was understandibly quite busy and the noise level became very high and could really benefit from looking at interior changes (ie more fabric on the walls to stop noise from the upper level bouncing around) to soften the ambiance - we all would have enjoyed our visit better with a more relaxed ambiance. Easily fixed and we would have rated Cote top marks.

Good service as always good choices food was lovely also got given our favourite table really lovely meal will be back very soon Thank you

Mediocrity personified Staff were rude which didn't help the middle of the road food That said, the set menu is still on the right side of value considering the price

Lovely meal as it often is when we come here. Well cooked, delicious and a wide selection from which to choose. They forgot one of my daughter's drinks initially, and we were only a party of 4, but the restaurant was extremely busy. There was barely a single table free and there are quite a number of tables here. My other daughter really enjoyed a good quality wine, and my husband and I had some authentic French cider which we really like. All in all a lovely birthday meal out for me!

We went 4 of us to Cote Richmond. Overall we had a nice evening, few things could be improved. The food was variable, the bread definitely used to be better, Tuna Nicoise was great as always, Chicken salad was pretty average. The service was not great unfortunately. We had to remind out waiter of the wine that we have order, there were no cutlery for 2 people on the table, had to remind again. In general, stuff was not very attentive and hard working.
