Whilst overall it was good I didn't feel that the management presence was as good as other recent visits to your Cambridge bistro though we still enjoyed a very good meal and it was served very well.

Food good as always - service disappointing - we had to ask for our drinks and 2 of our courses. The meet and greet staff could do more to help their waiter colleagues.

Service was good but food wasn't up to the cote standards. Starter was good however all of our main courses were equally bad from no meat just fat pork belly, raw duck with no seasoning and very dry underseasoned chicken

Good food, always great to have gluten free properly catered for, but for the first time ever the service wasn't really as we've come to expect. Hopefully this was an off day.

The food was very good, the service was not to bad, but the redwine was to warm. And the restaurant should inform guests from abroad that sides have to be ordered separately. Anyway, we had a good time.

We had lunch from the set menu while enjoying a day out in Cambridge. The hop-on-hop-off sightseeing bus stops conveniently close by. The food, as ever with Cote was all delicious; Provencal Pissaladiere, Frisee aux Lardons, Poulet Grille, Roast Pork Belly, Peche Crumble and Chocolate Pot. Excellent, efficient, friendly service from Lily and other staff. I'd had an email offering complimentary Kir Royales for my birthday but could not find it in my Inbox. Lily was incredibly helpful and patient and served the drinks anyway, while I struggled with poor reception until I eventually found the message and produced the necessary code.

Not the usual mid week super value offered by Cote but nevertheless we were made very welcome by very attentive staff, a good place to go for a leisurely three generation family Sunday lunch!

Lovely restaurant in a great location close to some nice riverside bars. On arrival we were greeted quickly by friendly staff who took us to our table. For our mains we ordered two steaks. When they came out they were quite over cooked. When the waitress came over she seemed to be unhappy with them before we mentioned it. They were replaced with fresh meals which were perfect and they even took our drinks off the bill as compensation. They handled the situation excellently and I would not hesitate to go back.

The service is consistently fabulous, the food good value, especially the set menu before 7pm and the setting is lovely. Cote is an all round lovely dining experience. Your staff recruitment is utterly impressive, they always make you feel so special. You really do get it right.

We enjoyed a delicious and excellent meal at Côte Brasserie, Cambridge. There was a good choice of different types of food, all beautifully cooked and presented, and the service was impeccable. It couldn't have been better, we're so glad we chose to go to this restaurant.

A reasonable meal that could have been better. Starters quite good with prawn gratinee very tasty. Steak frites main course OK but Pork Belly was too sloppy with skin lacking any sort of crispness. Service just OK could have been more attentive and more friendly. With wine a bill of £80 for two seemed a bit top side for the quality of the food on offer. Would still go back to another Cote however.

We went on a Friday and my wife had the 2 courses for £10.95. I have Coeliac disease and since none of the items on the specials was identified as Gluten Free I had to stick to the A la Carte menu. This is something i suspect could be readily corrected with an flag beside the course saying "GF option"

The food and service at Cote Cambridge has always been very good if not excellent. However on this occasion, lunch-time Saturday 15th July, the food was a big disappointment. We had a table for four. The fish soup, which I have had before and loved, was served luke warm, was cold half way through eating, and lacked any depth. The tuna carpaccio was over seared and too thickly sliced. Our mains - 3 cod wrapped in ham - all overcooked, the fourth main -duck breast was flavourless and tough, the fat had not been rendered and was therefore inedible. At no time did a waiter or other member of staff come to our table to ask how our food was. A big disappointment on this occasion!

Food was lovely, but the service let it down big time. We had to ask after waiting over half an hour from finishing the main course, for the waiter to clear the table. He had forgotten about us and no apology!!!

Having dined @ Cote a few years ago with visitors from Singapore, I knew it would be one of the best restaurant to take my visitors from San Francisco & Malaysia. There was a good choice of dishes from both the fixed price & a la carter menu. Every plate/board arrived with visually pleasant offerings from the kitchen. Truly appreciate the efforts made & also, the service was impeccable. Every need was attended to including the typical 'can you take a group photo please?'. Will return on my next visit to Cambridge. Meanwhile. I will explore other branches when I am on business in other parts of UK.

As always, excellent service by the front of house staff. For some reason the food was not quite as tasty as before - possibly my own taste buds that evening. The restaurant WAS incredibly busy and I did wonder whether the kitchen was a little overwhelmed and not able to give its usual very careful attention to each dish.
