Côte Oxford

Excellent service by helpful and efficient waiting staff, attentive but allowing us time to sit and enjoy time with friends. Good value and pleasant atmosphere

We had great food and great service. The French onion soup was sublime, delicious and the sausages were very tasty. We will recomend it to others.

The choice on de menu was inadequate i like fish but not salmon so I had to choose ribeye . Cooking was supposed to be rare but got medium rare. Service was excellent. One thing worth mentioning is the noise, Unfortunately in our part of the restaurant was a group of 8 Spaniards. Like watching fc barcelona

The food was terrific as usual. The service was attentive. And the ambience is lovely. Try the Sancerre. Excellent! I highly recommend lunch at Cote Oxford.

The staff were very friendly and efficient. The food was absolutely delicious, very tasty and well presented and also we did not have to wait. We will certainly be returning.

We ate at the restaurant on a busy Saturday evening. The meal was excellent, service great and the atmosphere was lovely. There were couples, groups and parties but it was fine the restaurant sat you in the appropriate area. Will be coming back soon.

Fabulous as always the atmosphere is lovely and staff are super attentive. My steak was cold but they sorted it very quickly and efficiently. I love the cote brand as the food ambience and social layout has been put together very well.

Good meal before theatre trip but rather slow in being served main course. Given money off bill so appreciated. Not all puddings available on Set Menu.

We were warmly welcomed on our arrival. Interesting to see the new menus and I chose from the £15.95 menu and my partner from the April specials. We both enjoyed our meals and wine. All in all a very enjoyable lunch.

Fantastic food and wine as usual. Great venue for the Old Firestation theatre pre-show meal too and right opposite the bus stop. Well done treat.

We enjoyed our pre concert dinner at Cotes. The food was very good and the service was excellent as usual. We will definitely be returning to Cotes on our next visit to Oxford.

Delicious food, excellent service, and good value. A popular restaurant making it advisable to book a table as soon as you know the date and time you would like.

Eat at Cote regularly and was surprised to see that the Oxford restaurant now has two set menus - the usual two courses for £11.95 and a prestige menu at £15.95. Seemed a bit of a con to me as most of the choices on the higher priced menu were things that used to appear on the cheaper one. Really hoping this isn’t a sneaky way for Cote to hike their prices. That said, we ate from the cheaper set menu and enjoyed what we had - but sadly the apple crumble was no more. It had been promoted to the dearer menu!

Overall very good, but the skin of confit of duck should be crisp! Everything else was very good, including the attentive and pleasant manner of service.

Good value lunchtime menu enjoyed by all the party.staff very attentive and cheerful.all I all a very good experience. Would recommend and will go again

Really nice meal at cote Oxford. efficient service, first time @ cote - we'll be back again. Excellent steaks, cooked well to our request. Would recommend

Service was excellent and food was very good though a few dishes on the menu were not available today,e.g. cod, mussels, tuna nicoise which is one of my favorites.

Great meal and service. We were a party of 7 and all meals came out at the same time. Very attentive staff. Wold go again.

We had calamari and prawns to begin, steak and duck for mains and creme brûlée and cheese for dessert, the food was all cooked to perfection and tasted absolutely amazing, the service was friendly and quick, the price I think was great value for the food, we literally couldn’t have asked for any more!! Thank you so much the Cote team!!

Very quick service and friendly staff. Food ok but steak not cooked rare as stated and confit just adequate. Steak frites could have had a little more green salad. Profiteroles were great.

Excellent range of dishes on set choice menu. Well presented and tasty. Lovely staff - only minor issue was that a small table spillage could perhaps have been mopped up between courses - but this didn't detract from our enjoyment of the lunch. Thank you.

The duck was superb. The syrah wine was smooth. The chocolate mouse to die for and has set me in the chocolate mood for the Easter weekend. Staff very good indeed!

The standard of service and food was up to it's usual high standard, a delight to eat there before the theatre as they make sure you are served in time.

The pre-theatre menu is excellent value with a good choice of dishes: not too rich, or too big. The service was polite and fairly prompt: we arrived at 6:15 and were able to leave at 7:15 after a three-course meal. This is the third Cote restaurant in which I have dined, and all experiences have been very positive.

We felt the restaurant was somewhat cramped and the waiters had to lean across the tables when serving. Our party of four where seated at a round table which quickly became overcome by eight glasses, two water bottles and an unlit candle when food arrived. Despite ordering two starters to share we had to ask for some side plates. Food quality was good but lacking in vegetables, unless ordered separately, and quantity for the price. We accepted the added service charge as the bill stated that this all went to the staff.

Very kind and at tentative staff. I was given some free wine to celebrate my graduation. Overall it was very very good service and the food was encredable.

Was a great meal as always very quick with the starters and the main meal was well balanced however would have benefited from some complimentary veg - having said that it was a all round lovely evening!

Cote is always consistent. Good food and friendly service. It’s advisable to book as it gets extremely busy at peak times, that is theatre timing etc. Very good menu with lots of choice. Very central and good location.

We had an excellent experience at Cote Oxford last night as usual! We had the 3 course theatre menu with free Kia Royales. All courses were tasty and well presented, and the service was excellent!

Food excellent as usual but staff not their usual friendly attentive selves. Had a voucher for free kir royale which was only accepted (initially) for one person whereas previously had been acceptd as one per member of the party. Also was expecting the fixed price menu but told never valid at a weekend whereas on previous occasions it definitely had been

The service was excellent but both dishes were over cooked, they were cod goujons and chicken. This is not the first time this has happened. Disappointing as we have been visiting Cote for some years.

Another fine lunch at Cote. Not impressed with the 'voluntary gratuity' at 12.5% - I'm happy to tip as I see fit and don't need that encouragement. It always feels like a service charge is a surcharge. You have the choice of us either dining at Cote times a year (and occasional tip) or 6 times (plus tip) - what would you prefer as a company?

I have enjoyed Cote for many years and it was just the same yesterday, friendly staff and good food although I think the portions are a bit smaller than they used to be. Well done Cote.See you soon.

Cramped. No olio for the soup, surely any chef could whip that up in less than a minute. Main course was terrible, a sloppy wet mess. I was not charged for it but it spoiled the whole meal. On a positive note my husband's food was good and staff were good, but this is a branch of Cote I am hesitant to return to. Shame ruined our time there. Incidentally the table next to us waited ten minutes between the first meal coming out and the other three arriving hence first meal stone cold.

Lovely satisfying breakfast at a reasonable price. Friendly efficient service as always. Had the hot French breakfast and vegetarian breakfast with cafetière coffee and juice.

As always staff full of attention at all the Cotes we have been to. It makes for a very good dining experience. Needless to say the food served was excellent.

Excellent service and food! Went on a first date here and could not fault it. Me and My Date were very happy and impressed by the service. Will be back soon.

Polite and efficient service. Good food and value for money Friendly atmosphere . Well positioned in Oxford Centre easy to get to. Would recommend and go again .

I have just had food poisoning after having lunch at your restaurant in Oxford. I had the crab and avocado and cleared there was something wrong with it.

The service and food were up to the usual standard, the waiter who served us had a great rapport, we had not seen him there before but he may have been on leave or serving in a different area.

Excellent food (very good menu and quality of food and presentation were excellent) Also very friendly and efficient service. Good vale and will be recommending to our friends.

Cote restaurants offer the finest value in dining out in the country. The a la carte menu has so many delicious things to choose from and the 'specials' are always tempting. My partner and I dine there frequently; we are never less than very satisfied.

Service was very good and we had a good table.We opted for the Pre theatre menu which is a little restricted in choice but good value for money.

Excellent value, tasty food, polite and friendly service. Really enjoyed our meal and will return soon. The free kir royale with our theatre ticket was a very welcome extra!

We have a very nice time at our lunch which was also a special occasion. The food and service was excellent and was a great ending to our day out in Oxford.

We had lunch at Cote before going to the theatre. We were greeted and seated very quickly. The staff were as charming and professional as ever. The food was served without delay and was lovely. The price was very good. A lovely restaurant.

As usual at this restaurant, the service was excellent and my duck breast was perfectly cooked. Creme brulee and a coffee nicely rounded off my birthday celebration .

Very busy early evening. Definitely need to book. Food very good. Good atmosphere. Efficient service. Good menu, plenty of choice. Have been for breakfast which is also good.

Excellent friendly service at Cote Oxford. Lovely lunch and great value. Poulet Chasseur and crumble aux pommes. Complimentary Kir Royale was very much appreciated Thanks

Delicious food, fantastic ambiance. I had a wonderful romantic dinner with my husband. I recommend the mussels and don’t miss the dessert menu, I loved the créeme caramel
