Côte Oxford

generally very good.My own main meal of Venison Parmentier was very lacking in meat content. But it is a nice restaurant with nice staff , enjoy

Excellent food; attentive service but disappointed that there was no Crumble dessert left at 7:20pm despite being one of the set menu desserts. None of the other desserts appealed so we left without one.

An early breakfast here. Food was good, crispy muffins and runny poached eggs were served promptly. Service was friendly and efficient. Will definitely visit again.

It's a busy restaurant. We enjoyed its nice environment, good service, and lovely food. Tune stake was cooked without overpowering flavour and the lemon tart was so delicious.

We had a lovely meal.We go to Cote because the food is so reliable and the service is always friendly. The restaurant was very busy tonight and our meal was a bit slow in coming but we appreciated being told that it would come soon and were happy to sit and chat in the warm and comfortable corner we had been allocated. We had the set meal which is good value.We also love the fact that there is no loud background music!

We visited Cote Oxford on a busy Saturday afternoon and the staff were excellent. The food was great value and delicious. Would definitely visit Cote again.

Food was really nice generally. Gratin wasn’t quite hot enough but overall a very good meal and lots of chicken. Great value, Nice kir royale, right next to new oxford theatre. Good location

Good service but a bit slow. They’d run out of burgers at 6.30 on a Sunday so didn’t charge for our meal. The meal we had was very nice.

As usual from any Côte restaurant - fab service and great food. We can always rely on a good meal in any of your restaurants.

Good food and great service. Will definitely return. A most enjoyable way to spend a few hours. Friendly and courteous staff made the experience so much better

We were a group of 7 with some extremely difficult and noisy guests which the team dealt with very well. Will return and will definately recommend.

Fantastic food and great service. Will definitely visit again soon. Great value with lots of specials and offers to choose from. A very satisfied customer.

The restaurant is very well set up and the welcome was really friendly. The food was of first class quality and the service was very good.

I like the Côte chain. I have eaten in the Parsons Green restaurant as well as Oxford. There is consistency in the quality of service that is excellent.

Lovely food and really good service. Very close to the theatre too which was good because our show started at 7:30 so we were able to take advantage of the early evening menu offer which is excellent value for money.

The menu is as standard and good value. The venue is comfortable and convenient. Our meal was pleasant, but far from perfect. My soup was tepid and as we were seated alone in a more distant area it was hard to attract the server's attention: I had to finally get up and go to the bar to complain. The soup was replaced, hot, with an apology and extra bread. The mussels were nice - but the sauce was very creamy which I did not realise from the menu. Steak & frites needs some garnish. It took some time to get have the card reader brought for payment - again I waved in vain. Given all this, I am not sure why I paid the full 12.5% service charge - I was rushing for my train but I won't be back and the indifferent experience made us decide to cancel plans to go to a London branch.

Very good service and food was hot and tasty. Had fixed price lunch menu was was good value. Still a favourite although noticed smaller portions.

Nice welcome pleasant attentive staff The half corn fed chicken was delicious as were the very fresh cod goujons 12% is automatically added to the bill

We were greeted and shown to our table quickly. The menu offers a great choice and the prices are very good. We will book to eat here again.

Great service and great food. Good wine at reasonable price. A good atmosphere and lovely waitress. We enjoyed ourselves and would recommend to others looking for a 'smart/casual' evening in Oxford.

Excellent, quickly delivered food and drinks. Brilliant, attentive and cheerful service. We all commented how good our server was. This restaurant never fails to remain its excellent service

Beautiful food, friendly service. Only negative was we had to ask for a drink after being greeted and seated, and could have been sold another drink at the end of the meal if asked.

I have just celebrated my 70th birthday at marlow cote and received excellent service with lovely food, and visit cote regularly. Unfortunately after going to Oxford theatre I went on to cote for supper and had to wait far too long, other diners were being served 2 courses before we had our main. Apparently they had new staff in the kitchen , the food was good as always and I will still be going to my local cote

Great food and service! Been here numerous times before. Always great service and food and will return again. Thank you for your service, will be returning.

Slow, disorganised service. Overrated food. Very poor. Couldn't even remember to bring glasses over to have with our tap water. Won't be visiting again or recommending to anyone .

The restaurant was crowded and the food lovely but the service was very slow! We arrived at 6pm and had to rush our payment at 8pm in order to catch the bus back to the Park and Ride.

Nice welcome. Excellent service. I just found the meat in my main course rather dried out. This will not put me off visiting again though.

Nice friendly atmostphere, our meals were very nice. we ate the French onion soup and the Calamari which my husband said was one of the best he had, had. I had the fish stew, and he had the Roast belly pork which he thoroughly enjoyed. Waiters were very helpfull.

Not as good as usual. At 6pm the noise level was awful in the small room at the end. Service was slow - a problem in the kitchen, apparently, and the vegetarian choice was limited. Jerusalem artichoke risotto didn't sound exciting although the haddock was OK. We were on table 61 and our waiter was consistently charming and helpful but we've had better experiences in Cote.

Good menu for pre theatre meal nice atmosphere and the staff are polite. Service was speeded up when we said we needed to leave to see a show.

Excellent Food, Friendly Helpful Staff, A Very Enjoyable Dining Experience. I will be eating in Cote Oxford again soon and will encourage family and friends to visit this branch of Cote.

Order got a bit muddled and restaurant very very noisy waiters pleasant but we made a number of changes to the dishes however food was tasty once all sorted

Very good pre theatre (Early Evening) menu with a selection of starters, mains and puddings to cater for all tastes. Service was excellent and we will certainly come again when in Oxford for the evening.

Even though a booked over a week in advance we were seated on the most cramped table where we were practically part of the conversation of the people next door. It was 50 minutes before the received our main too.

Went for a pre theatre meal waited 40 mins for main course tepid when it did arrive. Other tables got served although we were there before them. Spoilt the evening as we had to rush

As usual, Cote Oxford was excellent. Good choice of food at good prices, well prepared. Always very busy just before theatre opens, but staff handled the rush excellently.

It is a great restaurant in an ideal spot. The only issue was there were not enough staff for the amount of people in the restaurant so they were run off their feet. Also the people next to us left with the money on the table for their bill and it was there for 30mins along with all the dirty plates when people were queuing at the door to get a seat.

Food was delicious but far too slow coming out. OK for us but not for several groups of people going to the theatre. Everyone waiting one hour for main courses .

It was such a lovely experience. The food was delicious, we had excellent service, nice wine and puddings. I’m definately looking forward to come back!

We arrived earlier than we had expected but this wasn't a problem. The staff were as lovely as ever. We had a very pleasant meal at a very good price. Thank you.

Nice restaurant nice staff but our main course must have gotten lost which meant a longish wait while watching other tables who ordered after, getting their orders. Shame as it rather dampened a good meal.

I was disappointed with this branch of Cote. Where we were sat was very cramped. Customers & staff kept knocking into us. The service was very slow. Luckily we arrived early as it took them 20 minutes to take our order & then 35 minutes til our meal came. One of my party ordered glazed carrots as a side & after her meal arrived she was told the carrots would be another 2 minutes as they were being glazed. When they came they had no glaze on them at all! We then ordered deserts & coffee & asked for them to come out at the same time. These took another 20 minutes & the coffees were even longer. I will say the staff were lovely as was the food when it arrived!

I always enjoy a meal at Cote in Oxford, the staff are so friendly and attentive the food is excellent and the prices are very good.

Excellent food and friendly efficient service. Luckily we had booked beforehand. Great lunch deal. Mussels and the Coq au Vin were delicious. Will definitely return.

Great food and good atmosphere. Sadly the sides came midway through the meal; cost deducted from the bill without asking and with no hassle. Would certainly go again.

Good service and food and drinks. Great location we will definitely come back when we are in the area as it was easy to find.

Very good service and very good food. We had the Valentine’s Day menu and it was just great. It was a very pleasant night, thank you

I love this place. We've been so often that we are greeted by first name and the waitress even knows how we like our steaks! Joking aside, when you get this level of professionalism you know you're in a really good restaurant. This place is great.

They were quite brilliant at taking into account our various dietary requirements. Particularly impressed at the facilities for a strict coeliac diet. Everyone enjoyed their meal very much, excpet I was a tidge underwhelmed by my venison parmentier.

Very pleasant place to eat, friendly attentive staff, good food. Only thing was we ordered two puddings the same and one was cold, which was a bit disappointing, but they dealt with it. Good place before theatre. Would recommend.
