Excellent food. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Sadly the bathroom is rather difficult to get to climbing many stairs. Can’t wait to visit again

Food was good but service was a little lack lustre. Not many smiler or much charm. We did leave a 12% tip but talked about whether to remove it.

We were all very satisfied and enjoyed our food. A plate of potato took time to arrive but place was pretty busy. Suggest you supply finger bowl with fish soup as one can get quite mucky dealing mussels!

We had to wait quite a long time before the food arrived. Very polite. The black pudding was burnt & replaced. Preferred Côte in Eton.

Great service, good food, lively atmosphere, let down only by the icy blast from the front door every time it opened.. An inner door would be a great idea.

Not as good an experience as previous visits. Service average couple of things went wrong. Didn’t like our location in restaurant but needed to be here because of our party size and composition. Looking back I wish I had my favourite Breton fish stew not the Cassoulet. It was ok where as the stew was brilliant. I will make up for it by going back tomorrow. I guess that says it all. Normally it’s excellent.

Unfortunately we had to change tables due to cold draughty air con and our table was also cramped for 4 people. Two of our starters arrived cold and two main courses had to be sent back because they were stone cold. Not what we expect from Cote. A disappointing visit.

A nice restaurant that we have visited many times. Food good, as was the complimentary bottle of wine. The only disappointment was the news that there was no duck breast (which I normally choose at Cote branches), because I quote " we cannot get it now because of Brexit". If that really is the case then the sooner we leave the EU the better. We can then look forward to having such meat grown by British farmers, probably with better animal welfare standards too. I don't think I have heard Scottish whisky makers warning us that Brexit will stop the hard stuff coming South!

We had a great meal, usual consistent standard. Red wine was corked, and the waitress did not seem how to handle our feedback initially, but all was well in the end, and a new glass of wine produced at the table from a bottle opened in front of us saved the day

Excellent restaurant, we eat here all the time! Such good value for money, especially the set menus before 7pm on weekdays. A La Carte menu offers a good variety of dishes. Staff are very helpful and friendly, always willing to recommend a new wine to try! If you've not tried it yet, get on and book a table now!

Food great, staff great, price appropriate. The only downside was that we were blinded by the sun reflecting off the windows of the building opposite - a blind would have helped.

We come to the Cote Restaurant regularly, especially when we are going to the Theatre Royal, so we just love your special deal menus. Always very good service and good food at great value. But we do not like sitting in the lower level by the door, which I had too on the 15th October, when I felt service and food was not up to your usual standard. But you did have a large party on the upper level. Having said that we love Cote!!!!!
