Cote is consistently good whatever branch you visit. Good food, good service every time.
Nice lunch with friends. Staff all extremely nice. Thank you
We are regulars here and usually it is spot on. But the past few times it’s been a little off. Food light on dressing/sauces, dry pissaldiere, sometimes over seasoned (too much salt) food. Friendliness of staff is still good despite a wholesale change, but service isn’t as sharp as it was. And I hate breakfast settings being placed and the general close down process/wipe down happening around me while I am still sat down finishing dinner well before the advertised closing time!
Enjoyed it overall, but long waits between courses and felt t was expensive. The main I ordered came with nothing, I had to order 2 sides to make a meal. Also don’t like the automatic 12 1/2% added to the bill Would only go when there are special offers on.
Attentive friendly staff , breakfast was good , chilled atmosphere.
The whole experience at Cote was lovely. The staff we’re attentive, quick and friendly considering it was Valentines night and it was extremely busy. I will be going again.
Great food, service and ambience. Love the crab mayonnaise and the French 75; a delicious gin cocktail on offer with the a la Carter menu! Will return
Was a lovely experience this time , we had a voucher from a previous bad time at another venue. We all had three courses and each one was delicious , so tasty. The staff were very friendly and made it a special evening.
Not as good as usual food lacked flavour. Good service.
Lovely food. Great service. Great value for money. Crepes to die for. Staff always polite friendly and professional. We eat here a lot because the foid is good and there is always something for everyone.
Lovely friendly courteous staff. Good food and great value for money set menu.
Lovely set menu - when something was sold out they offered another choice from a la carte. Very attentive staff. Nice atmosphere! Had a great evening.
Ordered asparagus risotto. Overheated previously cooked and totally tasteless. Scraps of asparagus and some goat's curd, looked like baby sick. Reordered goujons. The peas also cooked long before, shrivelled as fingers in bath water! Gave up. It was my birthday. Staff polite and nice. No complaints with them. Disappointing.
Great food. But a bit slow. Could be due to bank holiday weekend.
We love Cote, great food, design and ambiance and importantly, the staff are always wonderful. Plus the cappuccinos are simply the best! - Ian and Tricia, the ‘Cappuccino Cops’ - Muswell Hill
Attentive staff when we arrived 4 people asked if we wanted drinks and 4 times we said we’d wait for our friends . Onion soup good as always . Lamb had one inedible chewy/stringy piece but remainder was good asked for medium well was still but pink. Really long wait for 3 desserts and restaurant was fairly empty at this point !? New cutlery brought after starters but there was water in table and staff didn’t seem to notice so maybe should wipe tables between courses
The food and wine were excellent as usual. However there seemed to be an air of organised chaos about the place and we detected that always was not well between staff and management. It would be a shame for this restaurant to go downhill as it has been very good.
Really nice meal, good food and wine, ideal for pre theatre .Very good service and friendly staff, would definitely go back again, will recommend to friends .
Great food and great service. A good mixture of food. Worth a visit
New staff, so now need to get to know these having just got used to the last group. Good service and good food as usual. Thanks
A great Birthday meal. Food is lovely and price very reasonable for the quality. Free bottle of wine for booking online for 1st time very welcome. Our waiter was excellent.
A bit disappointed that the pork belly was already off the menu by 7.30, but charming staff and lots of other lovely food
Lovely evening at Cote , food and service good .
Lovely food. Hadn't been for a while as it was not goid. Glad to see that it has improved again. We had fish and duck and it was delicious.
A very warm welcome with the added surprise of a plant and a card welcoming us to Muswell Hill. Nice food, very nice staff and a nice relaxed vibe. All in all a very good experience.
Food was good and to a great standard as always - service was a little slower than we have experienced before.staff were cheerful polite and friendly.
Great service, great food as always from Cote! A warm welcome from Cote in Muswell Hill, service was friendly and efficient and the food was hot and delicious. What more can you ask for?
Food, service , drinks all fantastic . The manageress Anita is warm friendly and approachable. She is great at her job. Well done to her.
Very welcoming staff and quick service. Food was hot and well presented. Cream caramel was as good as usual. No problems at all really enjoyed meal
Always excellent service and fab food! Never go wrong choosing Côte Muswell Hill! The starters were fresh and tasty and the mains always great! Thank you
Lovely setting, perfect food and amazing waiter who constantly checked up on us and was such a delight.
Standard of food quality taste and presentation is very high - food always hot and fresh and matches menu descriptions.
It is a lovely restaurant with excellent food and great service. We booked for a late Mother's Day lunch. The staff were very polite, helpful and attentive.
Lovely food and very friendly staff who helped me use my Cote gift of a complimentary kir Royale for my birthday 😊
It was mother’s day today and it was very busy at Cote Muswell Hill but despite all that service was impeccably efficient, accommodating and friendly as ever and above all our meals were all delicious, thank you
The staff are always fabulously welcoming and helpful. I had one of the specials haddock wrapped in bacon on puy lentils for main which I found a little bland and lacking much flavour. I wouldnt choose it again. My friend enjoyed the mussels.
Terrible , food sent back as cold, didn’t eat at the same time...this was a free meal to make up for a poor experience previously...never coming again
We had a lovely evening at Cote Brasserie Muswell Hill. It was quiet, the food was wonderful - it always is! Very good service without being pushy or over- attentive- it was just right.
As usual the staff were welcoming and efficient and the food was up to the normal high standard. It is always pleasant to eat in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
Good food , good value , friendly ambiance and wonderful service.
Made for a very pleasant evening. Many thanks to all the staff and management who always make you feel welcome.
Lovely place and wonderful food always cooked to the same perfection. Been here many times and is a family and friends and friends favourite. Thank you guys.
Always guaranteed a lovely steak at the Muswell Hill branch. Good service too.
Our Daughter's post-wedding lunch was enjoyed by all our party. We appreciated the gift of a bottle of cremant and cocktails and our server Teddy was great- helpful, patient and professional. Thank you to the staff at Muswell Hill Cote for a memorable celebration!
As usual, the food was very good and good value for money. Also, as usual, the service was excellent. But the place is so noisy. Would it not be possible to have a quite alcove or room where people could choose to sit if they find the noise a problem?
On this occasion I tried a new dish I had not tried before and can say that I was very pleasantly rewarded. The attentive staff simply added to the success of the evening for both of us. I keep thinking that this can't go on like this forever, but I am pleased that I continue to be proved wrong - it has continued for a long period now, which means that it is not accidental.
Lovely range of food and good service at a reasonable price. £7 service charge wasn’t appreciated when the dinner was only £60 in the first place, I wouldn’t have left that much if given the choice.
Everything was of of the high standard we have come to expect at Cote.Food and service are very good.The one caveat was that we had booked the complimentary cocktail deal and we got these on arrival, but when we got the bill we were still charged for them and it then feels awkward having to point this out to staff.Its a small point overall, but it is the second time it has happened to us at Cote.
Great as always. Consistently good food, ambiance and general standard of presentation. Côte is always top of our list for eating out locally. I recommend the French onion soup to start and their delicious Ribeye steak for a main dish.
Excellent food and service, atmospheric environment, but a little bit noisy, and also it is great value for money. We passed two joyful and 'delicious' hours.
