I visited Cote in Oxford with friends. We had a lovely evening in a very relaxed atmosphere. The food was excellent and the menu varied with a great choice of dishes. The staff was friendly, efficient and upbeat. All round a very enjoyable evening, which I am sure we will endeavour to repeat.

As usual, a very friendly welcome, delicious food and good service and then a friendly goodbye as well. The early evening set menu is great value for money, and always a good choice and delicious; the wines are very reasonably priced. We will definitely come again.

We had a late afternoon meal 9/9/17 experiencing a warm welcome (before a Wine Tasting evening at The Oxford Union.). We both had Steak/Frites which was nicely presented followed by 2puddings which were very enjoyable. We shall certainly re-visit again when in Oxford. Thank you to all the Staff.

Great food and wine at a reasonable price. However, the service was a little hit-and-miss. My starter was brought with half the components missing and had to be sent back. The issue was rectified swiftly, though. Extensive gluten-free options, good to see.

Overall we enjoyed our evening and the food was extremely good. Not impressed with the 12.5% service charge. We had it removed and left 10%.

A bit mixed! First we hadn't realised (from looking on your web site) that your three course special offer was not available at weekends and we did not find your weekend specials attractive. You had run out of our choice of starter - mussels - your ARE a French Restaurant? and you had also run out of my wife's all time favourite dessert - Creme Brulee! Having said that, the staff were all very welcoming and attentive and the food we did have was excellent and the manager made up for the problems with a reduction in the bill so all in all we will be happy to come back another day!

The food was great! But when we arrived it was very awkward and cramped, our table wasn't ready as it was very busy. We had to wait stood around people eating which I'm sure made them feel uncomfortable. I think Cote should invest in a proper waiting area rather than filling he space with lots of tables. But the food was amazing and staff were nice.

Great food, pleasant staff. A good place to go for a celebration like I did for my birthday! Would recommend Prawn gratin and the Calamari as starters.

Staff were charming as always in your outlets. My fish was delicious but the accompanying beans were very dry. I have had this dish on a few other occasions so was a little disappointed. I did tell the waiter about it. Food was excellent but a small problem with the service of a dessert which was a little slow. Otherwise a lovely evening out.

We had a great meal with lovely food and excellent service. My only criticism was that the tables were far too close together which made it practically impossible to get in and out of our seats.

The portion sizes since we last went have vastly reduced in size and the presentation has also been downgraded. All our party of three were very disappointed and we will go else where for our next evening out in Oxford.

We have visited several times in the past and were in general satisfied. However this time the food quality was disappointing. We ordered a fougasse as a starter, which arrived half baked while parts of it were obviously still frozen. The main dish of poulet breton was too dry and looked as if it had been reheated. It will definitely take a long time to forget this experience and revisit this restaurant, if ever.

Excellent meal, efficient friendly service at a sensible price. My wife and I shared the Crepes light main dish as a starter which was just right and really tasty. Steak I had for main course was cooked exactly as I requested and the fish pie my wife had was full of good fish and prawns. You can understand why this restaurant was busy whilst others around had lots of empty seats.

Brasserie layout rather utilitarian. Service OK. Main course of chicken, bacon, avocado on green leaves served in a glass basin bowl! Staff had added some dressing, rest in a small jug ... should have left it all to customer.

I enjoyed the meal. The food was good, although my hake was perhaps a little too salty. The service was friendly and efficient. I would like Côte to consider listing two sizes of wine by the glass in their menu.

The food and the service are lovely, the service was a little leisurely, we were not in a rush so that was ok. I shall bring visitors again.
