Côte St Albans

A lovely meal as always for five of us on Mothers Day. The service was slower than usual but to be expected on such a busy day.

My main arrives cold. Whilst everyone apologised and my dish had to be taken away and warned up, this changed the meat from tender to well done. I felt I should have been offered some money off of at least offered a glass of wine. This is my first disappointment from a restaurant I usually love. There were hardly any of people in the restaurant in Sunday so my food should not arrive cold.

First time we have been to St Albans Cote Brasserie (we usually go to Welwyn Garden City). We had a lovely meal, great service, thank you!

Date day with my wife and a great way to finish off the day with a another great Meal at Cote in St Albans, food excellent and staff very good. Will definitely be going back soon

A delicious meal for our family of 4. We arrived just before 7pm and so ordered from the fixed menu. As always, the food was first class- in particular the soup and cod.

We all really enjoyed our mother’s day meal. Service was good so the children didn’t get chance to get bored. Tasty food! Excellent meal out. Thanks

Cote is by far the best restaurant chain. Never had a bad meal.

Great service and lovely food! Will definitely be returning soon!

The noise level was so bad that it was impossible to communicate with my guests. Service and staff excellent The food was good but the noise level completely spoilt our meal. My wife went home with a headache.

The food was delicious and the staff were very attentive. We had the duck breast and steak frites which were both juicy and flavoursome. We will definitely return soon.

Lovely atmosphere and service, and nice food options. Reasonable prices for wine and food. Would be enhanced if there was a set menu, similar to the one during the week

No issues at all. Excellent menu choice a last carte and set menus. Excellent service. Great value 4 money. No issue at all recommending the restaurant.

The food was lovely and lots of choice. The staff were friendly and attentive.

Amazing food and fab service. We were very happy with the food. It was a little slow having the table cleared after each course but the food more than made up for that

Fantastic food and good service. Friendly and helpful staff made it an extra special experience.

Great service, lovely food and a fantastic experience. Tried to book for my birthday through the website, but could only get a really late table for the five of us. Went in and the lady on the reception desk was fantastic, sorting out the booking in no time. We had a great meal with great service and a birthday ice cream for me!! Will most certainly be back.

Always like eating at Cote. Lovely building and decor. Very good service. Price very good value. Overall a great dining experience. Food fantastic.

Superb meal as always. Such a lovely restaurant we have been many times and highly recommend it.

It was all great - except the toast. Some pieces were nearly burnt...others hardly toasted

Staff always remember us and are most welcoming. Ordered the sword fish - it was more than delicious. Thank you.

Great atmosphere, service and food as usual! Cote never disappoints 😊

Food and service good but slightly spoiled by both dishes of spinach not being hot enough.

Great food, great service, lovely ambience, friendly staff, very good value for money

Amazing like always thanks to make my birthday a special day had a really good time xxx

Lovely ambience, excellent choice on the menu. Tasty food that is good value for money. Often come to Cote as the quality is consistent.

As usual Cote in St Albans never fail to disappoint. I had a wonderful 50th bday dinner here with my friend, efficient service and warm, friendly & courteous staff 🌈

Excellent meal as always. Great service and wonderful food. Will come back.

Love the Cote. Pleasant staff and good food. A bit noisy.

Thank you so much for another wonderful lunch! Our Sardinian Waiters were superb, polite and efficient. We try to come and see you once a month as we enjoy the food (and complementary cocktail) so much. Here’s to the next time! Best wishes!

Always a pleasure to visit this restaurant. The 2 and 3-course options are good value.

Lovely meal thank you great evening with my Mum. Steak excellent

Nice atmosphere. Would have been nice if the waitress who served us smiled instead of making us feel like an inconvenience when we requested anything else. Food is good.

Chateaubriand on Sunday evening was a delight full of flavour and included in their “weekend specials” which didn’t damage the budget, will definitely return.

Excellent atmosphere, we had no longer to wait for starters and the mains was exelent. Rib eye was perfect kokt and we have a nice bottle of Treviac. Definitely coming back for a new experience.

Staff were very helpful. Would have preferred a window table. Food very nice.

The standard here is always five star. Great food, great atmosphere and the very best service.

As always the meals were exceptionally well presented and tasteful with the sparkling wine always exceptionally good !! The service always comes with a smile.

Fabulous food we loved it all the only negative was My sauté potatoes were a bit under cooked but other than that it was first class and would definitely return !

Excellent food. Service could have been better, found some of the staff quite rude at times but on the whole we had a lovely meal and would go again.

Average food, poorly cooked steak, slow service and rowdy atmosphere on a Saturday night. Had to shout to be heard on a Saturday evening, never again.

The staff were friendly and very accommodating. The food was excellent. All in all, a superb evening. We’ll be back.

Perfect time with the family and great value for money

Always very relaxing. Attentive pleasant staff. Will be back very soon

Lovely hour and a half spent with a friend enjoying a delicious lunch and a glass of wine each at a very reasonable price.

Having reserved a table some time before the date I visited I was somewhat surprised to find my guest seated in an area which seemed to be where children were seated. Our table had push chairs either side and there were other children in the area. It's quite a big restaurant and there seemed to be other tables available in the other areas. Other than this everything was good and up to the usual Cotes standard. Unfortunately the seating let this venue down. I was meeting my friend for a catch up so I travelled to St Albans from Canary Wharf. I frequently go to Cotes at London Bridge. The service and food at St Albans was just as good but I have no idea why I was seated in what seemed to be a family area and there was food on the floor around my chair which would seem to back this up.

Food was over cooked. Not as good as we have previously experienced

Whenever we have been to Cote Brasserie St Albans we are made welcome, the service is excellent and I must say (being a french woman) that the food has never disappointed us, it is always plentiful and beautifully cooked. We will returned as a couple or with friends many times in the future.

Pleasant relaxed meal as always. Enjoyed one of the March specials, the veal escalope. All 4 of us would have chosen it but only 2 left (at 6.30 pm); suggest upping the stock a bit.

Fabulous food with excellent ambience and friendly, efficient service -- recommended

We had a table for 6 on Saturday night, very attentive staff, delicious food, great value for money. The only bad point was the noise levels, it wasn't that loud on Christmas eve! I think next time we go we will ask if there is a quieter area ?
