My dining experience yesterday was not good. The calamari was greasy, the steak was far too peppery and the waiter dropped my fries and had to get another portion from the kitchen.

Yet another fantastic meal at Cote in Guildford. Three of us ate from their Prestige and Set menus and not only was the food fabulous but for 3 courses, what great value for money. A lot of people moan about the 12 1/2 % service charge automatically added to the bill but trust me, you always get exceptional service to justify this charge. The staff are always very courteous and friendly and the service is prompt even when they are fully booked.

Most enjoyable experience all round. We were made very welcome on our arrival and offered a choice of the table available. Our waiter was excellent just the right level of friendliness and attentiveness. The food was very good being attractively presented and cooked perfectly. The wine we chose was recommended by our waiter and was good and value for money. We are irregular visitors and have always found this restaurant to be good however after our last visit we will not leave it very long before we return.

Staff great. Food salty and produced without care. Chef is a cook who clearly follows a poorly produced mass recipe. I am in the f&b industry. This is clear. A cook who calls himself an accomplished chef and a brigade of assistants. The front of house saved the day.

Amazing food and amazing service. The price is very reasonable for the quality of food and includes service charges. However if you can go at an off peak time because it does get busy and loud due to its popularity.

Best tasting and best value breakfast in Guildford by a country mile. Service friendly and efficient as always. Worth booking ahead for breakfast especially at weekends as it gets busy around 9:30 - 10:00. New "prestige" menus for lunch and dinner look tempting. Haven't tried them yet but will do so very soon.

We (a party of 4/5) regularly enjoy pre theatre meals on the 2/3 course menu. Normally this is a pleasant unrushed meal but tonight in spite of hard working staff and 75 minutes to eat 2 courses we only had 5 minutes to eat the dessert. Trying to attract staff attention and having to continually watch the time before the curtain went up was not conducive to the relaxed meal that we have become used to in several branches of Bistro Cote - this impacted on the evening. The food was up to usual Cote Bistro standard but the staff although doing their best were clearly stressed and unable to process the orders in good time. If the staff have been cut back to his level then theatre goesrs will return to the more conveiient Theatr Restaurant rather than being rushed or late - that will be a shame! John -Maxwell

Excellent pre theatre meal . All the Staff were welcoming and food served was delicious , served in good time and very reasonably priced . I've eaten in various Côtes before now and never had a bad experience . I particularly like the fact that they also offer an earlier serving time than many other restaurants. When visiting towns for the day or weekend and everything shuts at 5 or 5 :30 but you might want to enjoy a pleasant sit down meal before a show starts at 7 then Côte offers a tasty menu at reasonable prices and in very pleasant surroundings .

We always enjoy good food at Cote, and this lunch was no exception. The restaurant was busy, but our reservation brought us a table for two immediately, and we drank our delicious, and complimentary, St Germain G&T's while waiting for mussels and steak. The sixth star has been withheld because our table was in a busy and rather noisy location, but the restaurant was too busy to ask for an alternative.
