Overall good service, good food. Improve on providing plates for bread at start and perhaps not having a table right next to coffee machine because of the noise. Very nice of staff to sing happy birthday as we had bought a cake in to celebrate

As always, Côte provided an excellent service and the food was of phenomenal quality. All six of us thoroughly enjoyed our food and there is no doubt that we will return in the future. Thank you to all the staff for making my birthday meal special.

Friendly staff, nice buzzy atmosphere - love it as one of the only restaurants around where they take allergies seriously. Teenage Son is severely allergic to milk and eggs so as parents he and we too take full responsibility for this when we choose to eat out as it is our responsibility. Great care given here, everything personally checked in front of the manager when the waitress served us. Outstanding service and meal. Thank you.

The food was wonderful, the service was prompt - and the teapots were generously proportioned! The atmosphere was wonderful. We could have been in a brasserie in Paris!

Had a celebratory birthday lunch with old schoolfriends. The birthday Kir Royale arrived as soon as we sat down without having to ask for it - what service! All very much enjoyed what we chose from a very good range of options on the February lunch menu. We'll be back for the next birthday celebratory lunch. Well done Kingston Cote.

We were welcomed to our table although we were early. I had the May special of grilled lamb chops with Roquefort butter and peas and my husband had his favourite of ribeye steak with peppercorn sauce and chips. Both were delicious. Cote is our restaurant of choice whenever we dine in Kingston. The food is always consistently delicious and the service is always charming.

Nice food, good service and lovely atmosphere. Menu hasn’t changed for years which with a slightly larger specials board isn’t a problem. We would come back more often if the menu changes occasionally.

On a Saturday evening the restaurant was busy and buzzy, the service was attentive and friendly and our meal was very good at this level of cuisine and reasonably good value. We really enjoyed our evening

Excellent service and food. We very much enjoyed our free aperitif. It would be nice though if bread was served with the Prawn Gratinee or come to think of it put on the table as in restaurants in France without charge.

Usually, food is well cooked and presented, served efficiently. I enjoy the food very much. Unfortunately I had a foreign waitress taking my order today and got my order wrong. I asked her the difference between the tiger prawn and the King prawn and we decided on the King prawn which is a special item in March but she brought the tiger prawn for us. It was a disappointment. The duck slices were delicious as usual but would like a bit more potatoes under. I would like more choices in dessert. Ice cream or frozen berries with sauce is not really a dessert to me.It was very crowded at lunch time today and I had to wait for a long time to get my coffee at the end and it wasn't hot. Luke warm coffee was't great to finish off my meal. It was also noisy and was difficult to hold a conversation. We couldn't hear each other across the table.

Very enjoyable, but can I make a suggestions? Your portions are very generous. I was with my 20 year old granddaughter but neither of us could finish our dish of fish goujons, which was delicious, but over-large. Is it possible to offer a choice of portion size, one normal and a smaller one, at a slightly reduced price, to minimise the wastage which results. This policy is very popular in restaurants which have adopted it. We both wanted a dessert today, but were unable to eat one!!!

We had a late booking after a concert. The restaurant was still fairly busy at 10 15. We felt very welcome and were served quite promptly with freshly prepared food which was excellent . We had lovely views of the Thames and illuminated Kingston Bridge. being near the window. Despite the latish hour the restaurant and facilities were immaculate. The staff remained attentive and helpful throughout. Thank you.

Cote does great food but the experience starts before the food arrives and continues after the meal ends. We’d booked on-line (just an hour ahead) and on entering the restaurant, they confirmed I was gluten-intolerant and we were using a discount code. Service continued to be re-assuringly attentive throughout the meal, including helpful guidance on the gluten-free options, and an ad-hoc order of extra potato gratin mid-course was delivered within 3 minutes. Following our dessert, we felt no pressure to vacate our table and received our bill rapidly upon our request. We left highly satisfied and commented to each other how much we’d enjoyed this visit. On arriving home, I was delighted to receive your email asking for feedback, which simply confirms to me how highly you value your customers’ experiences and opinions. Well done, Cote!

Very busy, but staff were efficient. our waitress was exceptionally helpful and the food ,although good at our previous visits ,was much improved. We both had a great time and will return. Keep up the good standard. Only minus point for me was the 12 1/2% service charge. I would rather pay less or more depending on the service provided.

I am close to awarding *****. Being picky, our waiter went off shift half way through our meal; not a big deal and he deserved his break but being harsh, it takes away top billing. The food was excellent and the service so professional. The staff share the 12.5% service charge and this is much deserved. By far the best restaurant "chain" food available.

Shame the succulent looking lamb chops were as tough as old boots. The complimentary rhubarb martinis were strewn with inedible rose petals making the cocktail very difficult to drink. Such a shame.

The food was lovely and glad I booked in advance as it was extremely busy on Good Friday particularly with the lovely weather. Despite being busy we were not rushed and given p!entry of time to make our selection from the menu. My only grumble is that my guests were stopped from entering the restaurant and told to wait. My husband had to collect them from the queue!
