Food was good and the waitress did a good job. The corner was hot and stuffy and no air movement. A restaurant without an AC unit is rare and makes for hot and uncomfortable eating!!

Had to wait for the table to be made ready. I've had better full English breakfasts at motorway services. Don't think I will be returning.

Took advantage of complimentary drink offer that had been emailed to me. Arrived at cote and was told we could not have two courses for £11'50 if we wanted to take advantage of the complimentary drink but instead HAD to choose from the 2 courses for £16.95 which clearly showed us that there was no such thing as a complimentary drink. We declined the drink but they were brought to our table by mistake. The manager told the waitress to take them back. The bar man re sent them five mins later and the manager again told the waitress we could not have them. We had already said we didn't want them as we were eating from £11.50 menu. Whole experience was embarrassing to say the least. Manager should not have made such a mistake and it ruined our lunch...very disappointing service and experience from cote!!! Do not offer a commentary drink only with a dearer menu!!

Booking was fine and good choice of table locations. Attentive helpful staff and the food was very good. They did bring one incorrect dish to the table but immediately sorted the error with only a few minutes delay whilst keeping the other dish warm. They then took off the cost of our coffees as compensation which was unnecessary but a nice gesture.

I love Cote at Esher but on this occasion the choices for vegetarians was limited and as the tomato breton salad had finished, I had to choose the calamares, so it was disappointing this time.

Because it was a very hot day the doors were open and the traffic noise was intrusive. We moved to a table further in but there were loud conversations and it was difficult to have a chat with friends, one of whom has a hearing aid. The service was patchy and my meal was a bit sad - the rocket was wilted. I suppose I should have complained but I was with friends and did not want to embarrass them. Also when they made coffee there was a "bang bang" as they did the beans then a loud hiss when the steam went in. Not a pleasant visit and I have cancelled my next reservation.

We were welcomed into the restaurant with the usual smile and hello. What a great team they have there. The new Prestige menu is a wonderful idea giving us access to more variety and we decided to eat from this menu. My duck pate starter was lovely as was my wife’s breaded calamari. The wife went for the seafood linguine which tasted wonderful yet maybe a tad too much sauce. My Breton chicken was great!!

Excellent food, nice table by the windows, good service, thoroughly enjoyable. Due to the hot weather the large window was open, and the traffic noise was quite loud, but that is no fault of the restaurant. We shall come again, often, I hope, when the weather is cooler.

Two of us had dinner on 27th June. Excellent service and most enjoyable food and reasonable quantities. One small criticism - I would have preferred hollandaise sauce to vinaigrette with the asparagus. Also were pleased with the Pinot Noir.

Another lovely visit to Côte- this time for father’s day breakfast with the kids. Reliably good food and drinks. Between us we had eggs benedict, sausage baguette, pain au chocolats, coffees, hot chocolates & juices - all were quick to arrive & delicious. Friendly staff.

Food very good. Service was also very efficient. The only down side of Côte is the noise on a busy Saturday night - not somewhere to go for a quiet chat!

Kate S.6 years ago · 4 reviews

The rating is purely for the service, as the food was good, and we all enjoyed what we had for brunch. However, after 20 minutes of arriving someone finally came to the table to take the food order, and was surprised we hadn't even been asked for our drinks order. We had to ask for additional things like a gluten free menu, jams for toast, and more coffee at least twice before it arrived. I also had to ask for the bill twice, and then the card machine to be brought over a further two times.... and it wasn't even that busy. Disappointing for somewhere that can be really good when they actually take an interest in the customers.
