Fillet steak poor very tough, spoilt the evening. Service nothing special not worth 12.5% that was added to the bill. The steak was replaced with a duck dish but this was also tough and chewy. Will not be coming again.

Cote Brasserie was as good as it always is. The service was friendly and prompt - we love the Kir Royale to start with; especially the initial, complementary one.

Really enjoyed my time at Cotes in St Albans. The atmosphere was really relaxed, and the staff were very friendly. The restaurant had catered for my special dietary needs. Food was really good value, had the lunch set menu, and received a complimentary bottle of wine. Would definitely go again.

Overall our experience was generally good. The greeting we received by the young man was rather casual and could have been more professional, perhaps this is due a lack of training? I had to ask for our table to be wiped as clearly something had been spilt by a previous customer, the new table setting had been laid over this, however, the table was cleaned by the waitress who was attentive and pleasant.

Another lovely meal at Cote, beautiful weather so we could sit outside in their lovely garden. Beautifully cooked steak and a delicious chocolate mousse to finish. Great staff and good service overall.

Our breakfasts were freshly prepared and good ingredients. Service was prompt and friendly and the price was reasonable. My scrambled egg was particularly good as it was creamy and my companion's poached eggs had impressively deep yellow yolks.

We were annoyed. We gave the waiter a £20.00 tip and then discovered that there was already a 12.5% service charge on the bill. Disgraceful!

A very pleasant experience. Great food, reasonably priced and very attentive staff. The restaurant is large enough to feel relaxed in and the unrushed atmosphere makes for a perfect Sunday afternoon family meal.

Very disappointing!! Been to the Cotrs which we've liked. The restaurant was very quiet and the Waitrose managed to get my drink wrong - my starter wrong. It was rectified but shouldn't have happened to start with. My friend's soup was cold and got sent back. Generally not a great experience!!

Went for a pre theatre dinner. Not the best meal I've had at Cote but it was OK. We got free Kir Royales from our theatre tickets, which was a bonus, but the waiter failed to bring a drink I ordered at the end of the meal. I would go back though.

A super restaurant! We were greated well on arrival and seated promptly. Our food was good - even a small issue with a slightly overdone starter was quickly replaced and deducted from our bill. Atmosphere was good - staff attentive and friendly!! A good restaurant to have locally!
