It’s great to have you back at Esher and seeing our usual waitress smiling face and welcome was fantastic. Great service and food. Only request is hopefully in the near future you can offer your all in one breakfast ie choice of fruit juice, hot drink and food ( full English, French breakfast etc)

It was lovely to be back in Cote Esher. All the staff were friendly and attentive and the service was excellent. The food was very tasty. We all noticed that surfaces, chairs etc were being wiped down which is good and appreciated the visors being worn. It was one of my daughter’s birthdays and she had a lovely time. Thank you for helping make it a special occasion. We will be back.

I feel sorry for the staff. The ridiculous visors are practically helmets. Customers can’t hear the staff clearly and worse still the staff can’t hear the customers. Whose idiotic idea was this? It literally alienates people. The food and service were fine but missed the lunch menu and specials supposedly dropped “because Covid...” I won’t be in a hurry to return whilst you dress up your staff like aliens and therefore treat your customers like plague victims.

Great that you are open again for eat-in meals. The service, as always, was friendly, enthusiastic and professional. The food was delicious as ever. The only frustration is your insistence on stating that there is a 12.5% service charge added to the bill whereas it is actually 15% because you add it to the VAT inclusive price.

Wonderful service and excellent food. The restaurant layout shows awareness of the virus challenge and tables and chairs were being (unobtrusively) sanitised as each customer left. Great to be back.

So pleased you are open. Nice meal and staff. A few teething problems eg masks caused an ordering mix up but rectified quickly and politely. Cote is a regular haunt of hours and we hope you will add the brunch menu for more days soon.

Returned to spend our voucher we were given after bad experience on mother’s day. We had a much better time tonight. Lovely meal and good service. Shame side dish didn’t come out at the same time as main. Had eaten nearly half before it arrived. Didn’t spoil a nice meal. We will return.

An excellent evening with friends and a very good meal off the new weekday set menu. Your rib eye steaks are terrific - and the welcome we received from the team in Esher was friendly, professional and much appreciated.

Two of our main courses (steaks) were luke warm along with the french fries. The other two sword fish dishes had a strange smell and taste. My wife left most of her fish course.

This is not the first time we have been here, but it was not the best meal or service. We both had the duck from the mother's Day menu. One looked fresh and juicy and the other was over cooked and dry. The waiter did not seem very interested in his job and was coughing and sneezing throughout the service. Not ideal with food around. We will not be put off by this one bad experience,but if it happens again?

We have been going to Cote Esher for years - we think of it as our 'regular' place - must go at least once a month since it opened. My wife's special delight is to finish the meal with your Creme Brulee - how sad when we went last night the restaurant had run out !!!!

The restaurant suddenly became very busy and the staff were a bit overwhelmed. However the food was good and we will certainly go back again probably next week as I think that this was a one off.

I am finding more and more when I visit the Cote venues that there is a consistency with quality of service and food and ambiance. Very kind and well trained staff and front of house management. Food reminds me of the way Michelin started restaurants were in France 25 years ago but without the fussy attitude. Well done and keep this standards up!

I LOVE Cote. Everything is right about it and that’s why I chose to have a birthday meal there. However something interesting happened over desert. I rather fancied the cheese platter which I have had a few times before, so duly ordered it. However when it arrived this was the conversation that ensued with the lovely waitress; Us - nice selection of cheeses, aren’t there usually some crackers or biscuits to accompany it? Waitress - No, it’s just cheese Us - that’s a bit weird, loads of cheese on its own and nothing to eat it with? Waitress - That’s how the french have it Us - but seriously, nothing to eat cheese with? I’ve had this desert in other Cote’s and I’m sure it comes with some kind of cracker? Waitress - No, definitely just Cheese, I’ll check with the manager. Us - this is crazy, JUST cheese on its own and no accompaniment?? Waitress - yeah lots of people have said the same thing Us - and???? So you see, we are a little perplexed. Perhaps someone from head office could let me know if we were being crazy or if that is the norm nowaday?

The staff are amazing. Shame to be over charged on the bill for a desert we didn't order and was brought out as a birthday surprise. The set menu great value the egg walnut bacon salad was piled up way too much. The steak was perfect the chips were slightly under fried and my side of beans were so over cooked they looked opague reminded me of school dinners

Lindsay our server was fantastic really made the evening, fun to talk to and excellent service. The food for me was a bit salty, I had the risotto and I could crunch the Malden sea salt flakes in each bite which I would have preferred not to but otherwise the food is good.
