Good food and drink and good value. Excellent service when the restaurant was very busy. Just as good as all the other Cotes we have been to.
Good food swift professional staff happy experience. Seating arrangements could Be better though as it was a bit cramped. Was my first visit but won’t be my last.
We enjoyed our dinner at Cote on a Thursday evening. The food and drink were very good especially the tuna nicoise), and the staff were very attentive, if sometimes overstretched. We'll certainly return.
The food was lovely, the only slight thing I could be critical on was the cut of duck meat. It would of been nice to have it like a breast instead of small pieces of what looked like processed meat.
BIG work group. Had fantastic meal waiters and all staff attentive, quick,polite .it's v busy cote, very small. I was at Cheltenham cite the evening before. Didn't book, walked in ...and Cheltenham great too. Fab staff. Upmarket atmosphere. I've just moved house and live opposite cite Cheltenham!!! Eileen Vielvoye
Excellent value with delicious food and attentive service. The set lunch menu is limited but the dishes offered are quite varied and unlike some French restaurants there is always an interesting vegetarian option. Definitely worth a visit.
The food was as good as ever. The waitress was very pleasant and smiley. The prices for the lunch menu are really good. The atmosphere was great. Thank you.
The food was excellent; well presented, great flavour and good portion size. Service a little disappointing, plates were almost thrown down in front of us. I usually visit the Cheltenham restaurant which I think has a better ambiance than the one in Oxford.
Great and really fast service for good food! We truly enjoyed our 3 course meal for £13.50. A great deal! We had steak frites and poulet grille with dauphinois. Great portion except maybe for the dauphinois. Not much in my plate. My boyfriend thought the chocolate mousse could have been a bit darker but it was more a question of taste here as I thought it was super tasty. My apple tart was delicious! I truly recommend Cote brasserie Oxford!
Staff very attentive and polite. Inclusive Lunch menu good value. We had booked for 14:30 and arrived at 14:00, but staff made up a table everything from there on was good service.
Many dishes unavailable, inexperienced waiting staff, unable to get order right. Small portions for main courses. Having found a desert dish which was still available, the kitchen burnt it - and this was the last one! In their defence, they did remove the other desert cost from the bill - but still added 12.5% service charge!
Great food for lunch and an admirably quiet atmosphere. No intrusive 'music' so we could actually have a long conversation with a friend. Oh, and the wine was good and complimentary on this occasion. Well done Côte Brasserie.
Very cheery and helpful waitress. Good food and comfortable table. Chicken liver parfait and French onion soup, pork belly and fish pie. What's not to like. Will be back!
Good,friendly welcome, first class waiter/waitress, tasty, delicious food, succulent wine, served promptly, carefully and correctly, all in comfortable surroundings - now what could be better?
Visited the George St, Oxford restaurant and it was as busy as ever but excellent service. Food and wine very good and excellent value for money
We all enjoyed our lunch very much, two beetroot starters and a duck liver parfait, were followed by a chicken dish, fish and beef bourguignon, all delicious and beautifully presented.
I love coming here: pleasant surroundings, charming, efficient staff, good food (excellent choice on set menu) and drink and very reasonable prices. Furthermore, the standard is consistent.
nice lunch menu - quite a variety of choice. Had a nice table near the window. Service good. Bit of a delay on desserts so they weren't charged for. A nice gesture
Lovely breakfast crepe, pleasant and helpful staff. I have nothing else to say but there seems to be a word limit on the review so probably won’t review again.
Our group of 6 were welcomed by happy courteous staff who served our tasty meals promptly -a great start to our evening in Oxford. Thank you!
Amazing as always and we were given free kir royales on the house because of a birthday; I would have given a 6 but there was no duck breast on the menu which is what I wanted to order! Also no meteor beer! Great atmosphere and not a criticism, but would be great to have some jazz piano for e.g. playing throughout the restaurant in the background to create more of a vibe!
Fantastic meal as ever. Such a good menu at an excellent price and a wide choice of drinks. Service up to usual high standard. A really good restaurant.
Excellent food, good service even though the restaurant was extremely busy. Really good value for money. Will definitely return & recommend to friends. Thank you
lovely atmosphere, very busy but staff attentive to our needs and very friendly. Food very good and we enjoyed the new winter menu. thank you
Excellent food and excellent service Andre remembered me from last week and gave me a glass of fizz. Great customer service .. can't wait to go again. Haddock and leeks were amazing
A super fixed price menu before 7 and great service, plus a complementary Kir Royal if going to the theatre makes for a perfect start to the evening.
We really love Cote. The welcome we get is lovely, the staff are very attentive, the menu is great, the food is always sumptious and the prices very affordable. We'll be back.
Although very busy with pre-theatre customers the staff, as always, were efficient and made sure our meal was served in time for our theatre visit.
Excellent food and vey good value. We had a very efficient waitress who coped with the busy Saturday lunch trade well.BUT door kept slamming next to us as people came in and out (especially groups who were unsuccessful in getting a table) and atmosphere was a bit chaotic. Cote should fix its door and would be customers should book!
Good food at reasonable prices. The service was a little slow ( very busy between 6pm - 7pm) and the 12.5 % (voluntary) service charge is ridiculous.
Good service, fillet steak was a little underdone, asked for medium and got medium rare. Wouldn’t go back on a Saturday night as too loud!
Bustling atmosphere, smart, friendly and helpful staff. Excellent specials choice and super menu. Loved it and would not hesitate to return. Great value for money too!
Eaten in many Cote restaurants and the service was good but the food wasn’t up to cratch on this occasion. We had a steak and both were over cooked. Thanks
great atmosphere, service and food as always. when the dessert I had ordered was no longer available the manager immediately offered that I could have another choice free of charge with no prompting - great customer service.
Lovely food. Tasty. Well cooked. Nicely served. Good value set lunch. Especially enjoyed the fish cake with poached egg. Would definitely return again. Overall very good.
As always the food was excellent and service superb nothing was to much trouble and even when a mistake on the bill was noticed it soon corrected.
Great pre theatre dinner really good service and the food was extremely reasonable we were a party of 8 had booked online and were seated and served in good time
Loved it! The staff were all cheerful and attentive and the food was excellent - and the pre-theatre menu is great value. We can't wait to go back!
Food was very good but service was very slow. We felt forgotten and the waitress went home whe we were waiting for her to serve us.
All good. Other items on the seasonal menu suggest we will want to return again soon. Service efficient and friendly. Why do I have to use 25 sodding words?
Great food, even better service! Was wise to book as a very popular choice. Even though it was busy, we didn’t feel rushed at all. Will go again.
Pleasant , good choice if tasty well cooked food with a good ambiance. Service on the ball and in a good position for entertainment at the theatre.
Food and service excellent. Those in the party who had the steak believe it is the best available and cooked to perfection. Seafood was fabulous. Only problem is deciding what to have as it is all fantastic
Attentive staff, delicious food and a lively atmosphere make Cote a very pleasant place to dine. There is always a wide range of, often seasonal, dishes from which to choose.
Our first time here and will definitely be back. Service was excellent, friendly and attentive. Food and wine both really good. Good location and relaxing atmosphere.
A good evening with great food and very helpful and engaging staff. The pace of service was just right and we chatted and enjoyed our meal in a relaxed atmosphere.
Very tasty lunch from the good value set menu with a pleasant glass of house white. Cote is consistent in its standards of food and service.
Party of 4 Meal and service was OK. Food was not to Cotes usual high standard, slightly disappointing. The restaurant was not overly busy either.
Food was good but service was slow. Waiting staff very friendly. Lunch menu still available till 7 which is good! Would go again for sure.
Food and service excellent as usual. Only room for improvement would be slightly more space between the tables -our wine cooler nearly got knocked for six on several occasions! Otherwise perfect.
