Great food, lovely location and excellent service. Even highlighted to us they had made a mistake on our bill - after we had paid it - and offered us an immediate cash refund. Well done Alex at Cote.

The consistency of Cote’s food and service combined with a reasonably priced but varied menu make it a winner every time. The wine complements the food choices to make it favourite in the mid-price range. One to enjoy!

The lunch through to early evening menu is very good value for money, It also offers better choices than most set lunch menus. The main disadvantage of Cote, which is shares with most other restaurants these days, is the earsplitting noise you usually have to shout over tho make yourself heard. It's really unpleasant and could so easily be avoided with the use of acoustic tiles , or the use of other sound absorbent materials. No wonder everyone goes outside if they can! The noise level reminds us of a canteen, or Saturday night in an over full bar. Not pleasant if you're out to lunch with friends to catch up and have a chat without raising your voice. I had a sore throat at the end.

The ambiance of this branch of Cote is unique with its view over the Thames. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. The service was impeccable and efficient despite the fact the restaurant was completely full. The wine list is comprehensive and has vintages to suit all tastes. An excellent dining experience overall.

I wish the web site mèntioned thèy had air con.we Sat outside and a swarm of flies descended as soon as the food arrived.we had to move. The change of brioche to French bread for the liver parfait is awful. And I think the food in general is going downhill. Also no chutney with the parfait.

This lunch was a post cinema treat for a friend. The restaurant was very busy as it was graduation day for the local university. Food etc was at its usual standard. However my friend is visually impaired and asked for a large print menu. The duty manager didn’t appear to understand the request or the reason for it. In the end I had to read the menu to her which did slightly spoil the experience for the both of us.

This is the best Cote restaurant I had ever been to: from the service, the food, staff to the location! I couldn't fault it! The staff were bending over backwards to help us and always with a smile, and made sure everything was ok every step of the way. Highly recommend! :-)

The service was very good. The food was generally very good but one of the main courses was rather dried up on top where it had obviously been sitting under a hot lamp for too long

We found the Manager's attitude condescending, bordering on arrogant. His opening remark 'Who is the one with the allergy?' was clumsy and indiscreet. He asserted the 'gluten-free menu' as directed at diners with an 'allergy'; please note Coeliac disease is an auto-immune disease - not an allergy. When we pointed that out he argued that it was 'gluten intolerance' and seemed determined to have the last word. Not good customer relations. We were also unable to accept your complimentary summer cocktail reward for booking, since it contained grapefruit. I am one of 4 million in the UK prescribed Statins; we are advised against consuming grapefruit in order to avoid adverse side-effects. It seems a shame to create an incentive to dine at Cote which excludes 4 million potential customers. We are frequent visitors to Cote and generally enjoy the experience, and we will return for sure, but on this occasion we were disappointed. It took the edge off our Wedding Anniversary celebration dinner. Yours sincerely. Ra C.

We had chosen Cote to celebrate a friends birthday. Our table reservation was 8.45 and the restaurant was packed but we had a nice table and were well attended by staff. However as the restaurant emptied out it felt we were forgotten about and we had to ask where our desserts were as we had been waiting so long. Also my cod goujons were not very nice, felt like leftovers, small pieces of over cooked cod! Sorry to report this as I love Cote and I felt letdown yesterday.

We went on a hot sunny evening and it was very crowded but they honoured my request for a table near the window which we really appreciated. The service was very good especially considering the number of people they had to deal with. There was some slight confusion over whether a complimentary aperitif that was part of an offer we were sent. It was sorted out and it was really nice. Everyone was pleased with what they ordered. A pleasant evening.
