Great to be back in your restaurant. The staff were excellent.
Great food, friendly service and reasonable prices make Cote the restaurant I keep returning to.
Many thanks. Perfect lunch with my brother and his wife. Well do e
Been waiting for four months for this meal at Cote and it was well worth it - thank you so much..!!
Very nice, if a little disorganised! Glad the sun was shining!
Fantastic lunch. Staff friendly and efficient Outdoor space great with lots of space
Great food, friendly and efficient service and lovely setting. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
I chose cote as our first meal out post-lockdown and it did not disappoint! I thought the waiters and waitresses were excellent....not too awkward but still socially distanced etc. Food was Delish as always and great atmosphere. Thanks
Lovely setting and very clean but as things stand at the moment, the menue is very limited and the meal was quite small. My wife could not find a desert which was not chocolate or ice cream. These are the two things she dislikes. The service was good apart from the wait, which was a bit long initially but improved after the starter.
Perfect evening by the river. Great food, good service just lovely to be out with friends after lockdown.
We were well looked after and the social distancing and additional cleaning measures were clearly in place, but didn’t change our experience. Staff we’re friendly and attentive. My only issue is that the menu is now reduced due to the situation, so choice is limited (I don’t eat red meat), but my husband still had a wide choice of steak, so he was happy.
Enjoyable and excellent food and attentive staff. Top marks for service.
Glad you are back, more staff please, overall a good experience
Great food and nice to be back. Also very nice to have fewer tables in the restaurant.
So good to be back to Cot’e Kingston after more than three months nothing changed perfect food and friendly attentive staff see you again soon
So wonderful that you are back and excellent as always
Exceptional as always. Staff were friendly and slick as usual despite all the extra precautions they are having to take. Food was as delicious as I remember it 4 months ago :) Will be back soon
Good food and spaced out tables- service good with face covering/visors
Excellent food and service. So happy to be able to eat here again.
Delicious first ‘after lockdown meal. Excellent service, well organised, good atmosphere and a great meal. So nice to feel some normality after four months.
Had a great meal as always! Love Cote, food consistently good
Food was excellent and came on time, service was good, atmosphere was great. Wonderful
Wonderful service and excellent food. Staff went out of their way to ensure we had a special birthday celebration. They were very attentive and understanding of my friend's dietary requests.
A lovely and thanks to Alex and all the staff who looked after us so well! A fabulous meal in the glorious sunshine. We will be back soon.
We had to re-book from lunch due to family emergency, and all was handled with efficiency. On arrival at our later evening time we were warmly greeted and shown our table immediately. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive, and ensured that our whole evening experience went smoothly and enjoyably. Food as usual was excellent, the special offer Blood Orange Martini set us off perfectly, and our wine was the perfect accompaniment. This was our 45th Valentine, and we had a very enjoyable evening - Thank you to all the front and back of house staff involved.
In a Beautiful location, with well prepared food and attentive staff it has all the necessary ingredients for a good meal. For a Saturday night the restaurant wasn’t heaving but it wasn’t quiet either, we were seated promptly and our order taken in a friendly and efficient manner . The staff were attentive enough to feel we were not forgotten but not overly so. The food was delivered without fuss and in a time appropriate for the business of the kitchen. The atmosphere was pleasant, the tables not too closely packed together and we felt that there was no rush. We will definitely be eating at Cote again.
Food and service excellent. No toilet tissue in tone of the ladies.
The food was cooked lovely and fresh. Everything that was brought out was exceptionally tasty. The service was brilliant throughout, where we never waited or wanted for anything without being offered. Great evening!
We all had the excellent value set lunch as usual. The noise level particularly bad and we asked to move our table, which was in the middle, to one at the side but restaurant was really busy and no other table available. The staff were friendly and helpful but rushed off their feet and three things were dropped during our meal including a glass which shattered very near a baby and a water bottle that nearly hit my foot.
Fantastic for brunch, great value and really good service. We were two families with three children in total. I reserved online and got seated in a lovely spot. Will come back for sure.
Excellent service and atmosphere Food always good the specials menu gets better and better. The noise level is high but somehow it does not seem to matter that much.
Usually my favourite Cote, Food as always good, but found the service pretty poor today. Waited for ages before even being offered the ‘complementary water’ Had to flag down a waitress to order a drink. Plenty of staff, but not particularly attentive. Apparently now on warm days you have to wait at the front of the restaurant to be seated rather than going inside even if you don’t want to sit outside! All very odd, but what was even more bizarre was the attitude of the man who was in charge of seating. He was virtually frog marching people (who had dared to walk into the restaurant) back to the front! And was really quite off hand if anyone questioned him. Surely what would be better is to have a sign out front that says ‘Please wait here to be seated’ ?? Not my best Cote visit.
Very pleasant and obliging staff! Made a fuss of my daughter on her birthday and gave a complementary dessert. Very kind. Lovely evening with delicious food and blood orange martinis!!!
Always a lovely atmosphere, good food and service. My go-to restaurant in Kingston.
The food is always great, however when we went on mother's Day my wife's fillet steak looked rather small in comparison to my Mum's. We politely enquired if it looked right and the manager/maitre d' advised (he was quite brusque) all steaks are 7oz and that because the steak is well done it had shrunk. However, when my wife cut into the steak it was only medium (she'd asked for well done) so I'm not sure this argument stacks up. We decided not to bother sending it back as it was mother's Day and getting another would take time and put a dampener on the evening. In my opinion the maitre d'/manager should have asked if my wife was happy and asked if she wanted to send it back, he gave neither option, he simply made a statement of fact that the steak is 7oz, hence why service is only marked as average. Other than that we had a lovely meal.
We usually visited the Chiswick branch and had recently stopped as the service was very bad our last few visits. However Côte has always been the place to go to for good food so we decided to give the Kingston branch a try. We were very pleased, food was just as good but the service was excellent and has certainly redeemed its place as our favourite place to go for good wholesome food.
A busy Good Friday and we really wanted a table outside, which I did request but didn't read the small print! Had I known we'd be on a list for outside tables then I probably would have got there earlier!
Lovely, friendly staff and great quality food ! Despite being very busy the waiting time wasn’t long at all and we always had a waiter on hand when we needed anything .Had a lovely Mother’s Day meal here :)
As always a super meal served excellently. I had the added bonus of eating outside with a great view of the River.
Great food, great service and very reasonably priced. I love eating at all of the Cotes restaurants as they always deliver on all of the above.
We met a friend for an early dinner. Food was excellent as was the service. Never disappointed.
My husband and I are regular diners at Cote in Kingston. The service is impecable and we always feel welcome. The food is delicious and well presented. We feel comfortable being there, we are never rushed and the waiting time is just right.
Excellent meal, good service, very pleasant atmosphere, good value.will come back. All 4 of us enjoyed it very much
Food good as usual however the service was very slow. We had to ask to order after 10 minutes, juice was brought at 20 minutes, tea at 30 minutes and our breakfast after 45 minutes. Unfortunately not our best experience at Cote - a bit disappointing.
Great food, service and friendly team, pleasure to visit. Consistent product at all their outlets, great value and never disappointed, we look for Cote whereever we visit.
Very long waiting times. Kids meals we ordered were overcooked - sausages were burned. But overall OK.
Love COTE and it’s Menu, good food, better g choice, friendly atmosphere, but staff is a little bit slow! Still we go there and enjoy this restaurant in any part of London!
Nice tasting food,portions seem to have got bigger. Excellent service as always. Whole concept is very professional. Restaurant was really busy at 17:30, non of the nearby pubs and restaurants were.
We always have a great experience dining at Cote in Kingston. The team are very professional, attentive and friendly. I enjoyed the Crab Bisque - special and hope that makes it to the main menu. I also adore the baked goats cheese starter so that would also be good to have on a regular basis. Thank you too for the complimentary cocktails - very much appreciated.
Superb. Had a blood orange martini and a goats cheese salad to celebrate my birthday with a friend. We had a fabulous experience. The martini was very good! Thanks Cote!
