You can rely on Cote for delicious food and efficient service.
Fantastic Gluten-free food as accredited by Coeliac UK. Very diverse menu options, including a free bottle of wine when you sign up to the mailing list (worth it!). Lovely waiting team. Will definitely be visiting again and feel great. Very good Value for money also. Thank you :-)
Delicious food - attentive staff. Good value for price. Tables a little close together.
The food was totally excellent. We go quite often but this choice of Gazpacho and Sea Trout was the best food we've had there, would do credit to any top restaurant. Our waiter was speedy and attentive. Totally impressed
Staff very welcoming and food up to the usual standard, salad particularly refreshing as it was a very hot day
Really wonderful experience. Excellent service throughout with special attention to our advanced indication of nut allergy. Special mention for the Fougasse (leave some space for what’s to follow though!) and a dreamy Cote de Boeuf. To top it off the tarte tatin was the perfect end to the evening. Will be back!
We were very disappointed with our meal last night not up to your usual standards my fish pie was watery and my wife's pork belly was very fatty we regular visit Cote over the country and I must say this was the worst also we felt rushed through or coarses.
I can always rely on consistent quality and service whichever town I visit a Côte in.
Lovely relaxed lunch with friends. We never feel rushed in Cote.
Good food and reasonable value. Charming, attentive and skilful service.
Another great dining experience, excellent food, great service, they even agreed to provide a starter that wasn’t on the menu, although the ingredients were and the restaurant was not very busy. Still very good customer service and relations.
Always consistent in whichever town you visit Côte. Quality food and good service.
Nice food. Drink to celebrate a birthday and great service in a timely manner!
Had a really enjoyable meal before we went to the theatre. Staff were pleasant, a great experience, thank you,
Had a lovely meal with my partner and her mother. The food was very good and good service even though it seemed busy.
I was overly impressed with the service and the food for the price! I am not usually one to go to a chain of restaurants but I will be visiting a cotes again soon! ... converted xx
It did the job. I was there for a steak and got one, cooked reasonably well. Veggies were there just to give some green colour to the plate and fries were scarce and definitely not home made. The Côtes du Rhône by the glass was fine and the waiter was polite. I was served amazingly fast, which explains why my steak was slightly undercooked. Overall no complaints.
Wow you made our anniversary so special, we were overwhelmed with our flowers , card, and celebration drink . Daniel our waiter was amazing , knowledgable and very engaging and Daniel the manager kept checking we was having the best time . The french onion soup is to die for and our steak was delicious a 10/10 meal . Thankyou all for a wonderful experience x
Lovely food and good service. Location convenient for theatre visit after lunch.
Amazing food and service as always. My complimentary bottle of wine was added to the bill by mistake but this was quickly rectified
Always one of the best restaurants in Oxford. The food is excellent, service attentive and efficient.
Excellent French food as usual, particularly pleased that our request for a quiet table was honoured. We sat in the far room, and were able to have good conversation. Thank you
Food was lovely, just a shame coffee machine was clean for next day.
Meal was a little cold. Waiting staff didn't know who had ordered each dish. Otherwise very good.
Wonderful food, the staff were really attentive, pleasant and friendly. Would 100% recommend!
Good value set menunlunch. Well presented, tasted lovely and friendly service from your staff .
We had excellent service, excellent food, excellent table. Thank you.
We had a lovely evening; the staff welcomed us, we were offered a choice of tables and we enjoyed our complimentary kir-royales. Our meal was very well prepared and of excellent quality.
Excellent early evening set menus at a very affordable price.
Service ok. But not as good as usual. I asked for steak without garlic and it came with it so had to send it back( too many people taking order) I always have the lunch menu steak but this time it was very chewy and nobody asked if everything was ok. When the plates were cleared I asked to see the manager and she didn’t charge me for my meal. But it was too late by then to be asked if I wanted another meal as my friend had eaten hers. As a regular customer I was disappointed.
We booked a table at Cote on two consecutive evenings during a short stay in Oxford. The food was excellent and staff were extremely helpful and polite. Despite the restaurant being extremely busy, service was speedy without us being rushed. Overall our whole experience also represented extremely good value. Considering we were visiting one of our most popular UK Cities at such a busy time of year it was a rare find in such a competitive field.
Lovely meal with family again. Bit of a shame that there was a delay getting one of our meals as the order was not taken properly. Also I love having Steak Frites from the Plat Rapide menu but as there was a mistake on the order, instead I was given Steak Frites from the Gluten Free menu (some of our party did order from this menu but not me) and for some reason this came with a blob of garlic butter on it. I prefer to keep additional/avoidable fats to a minimum but it was impossible to remove it - perhaps customers could be asked their preference or serve it on the side.
A most enjoyable meal, thank you. We always enjoy our visit to Cote Oxford.
Quick, efficient service with a smile, with good food and ambience- we will return
Interesting menu with good choice including 2/3 course menu option. Friendly welcome and attentive service
Waitress was very polite and courteous. The food arrived very fast (not that it was a problem) Duck pate to start that was smooth as silk, then a rare cooked steak which was perfect; best steak I've had in years. Creme caramel for dessert, not sure what they did but all I can say if you don't have one your missing out on a dessert sensation.
Great food and wonderful staff, will definitely recommend and come back to!
A very pleasant dinner in delightful surroundings with courteous service. We will be back soon!
Absolutely great food, ambience and service from start to finish. Would love to come back again and again.
Thus was a wedding anniversary meal and everything was perfect. Lovely cote de bouef.
Great food! Really good service! Both the lady who sorted our table and took the order and Hector who served us with the food and excellent wine were both fantastic!
Nice food, nice people, nice atmosphere. Considering it was very busy, the conversation was perfectly audible
We had booked a quiet table, knowing it’s difficult on a Saturday night but our table had been given away apparently.. we were then placed in the absolute noisiest part of the restaurant! By the door, the reception, the coffee maker and the kitchen.. Combined with a full house of diners it was not a pleasant experience.
Really tasty mains. Great service. Good price. We will be back.
Tasty but kid size Tuna Nicoise no new potatoes as on menu. Very disappointed
Excellent experience great food and good value lovely staff
