Steaks were some of the best I've had anywhere. Really impressed. As usual the service was great and a fantastic Friday evening atmosphere. Also very much enjoyed the Coupe Noir (ice cream and hot chocolate sauce with crispy biscuit).

We had a delightful meal in pleasant surroundings with friendly and attentive staff. We eat at Cote whenever the opportunity arises - York is the nearest restaurant to where we live but - wherever we are in the Country if there is a Cote we will be eating there. Our first was Cambridge a good number of years ago and have been enjoying the experience ever since.

Excellent service, nice atmosphere , not too noisy! House wine is excellent, one small issue with cold food handled well. Not too expensive either. Been here many times and always enjoyed it

Overall food was very good, apart from the risotto which was tasteless and bland, had to be sent back. (Wasn't charged for). Service was trying to be effecient, without making eye contact or a smile. Forgot three separate items which were asked for. Not once came back to us to ask if everything was to our satisfaction. Not enough staff to cover and give excellent customer service.

Cannot fault the experience we had the other night. We had a voucher as part of York restaurant week and we've never been but it has always been on our list to try. We were not disappointed. Food was amazing, in particular the belly pork was delicious and loved that you get dauphinoise potatoes with it instead of having to pay extra. We had 3 courses and each one was delicious and the service was incredible. Very friendly staff and quick service between courses. We had a voucher for another restaurant and the experience was no way near what we recieved here, we felt looked down upon in the other restaurant but here we were welcomed and treated just like everyone else. We will certainly be returning here again. Thank you!

Very nice. Little blip over the starter! The lady misheard what I’d asked for, but it was very quickly rectified. All in all a very nice meal.

Service was slow. One staff member seemed to be rushing about trying to cover too many things. French onion soup not pleasant. Quite expensive overall relative to quality provided.

The staff were lovely and really friendly. I had the chocolate fondant for dessert and it was, hands down, the best one I have had (and I have had quite a few). Would definitely be back here in the near future

Very good. The food was tasty and good value for money. As this restaurant is part of a chain, we go there because we know we will be served a good meal. Sometime we go for brunch too, that is always very good. The staff were attentive but not gushing all over us.

Our visit to Cote was enjoyable as always. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the food is consistently good. We were taking advantage of the complimentary gin and tonic offer for March, which was an added bonus.

Lovely place, staff can’t do enough for you, and food is delicious. Have never had anything but the perfect time here so very consistently high standards. We took five year old twins and their food was served quickly and they were treated as valued customers - as we’re we all.

Not a good day for Cote. The caramelised bread was overcooked and overpriced . A new chef couldn't cope with making a batter without eggs for the two year old with egg allergy fish gougons ( this has been achieved in past visits tomCote) . The food was very late coming out for the children . Fortunately the member of staff noted this and arranged free drinks . Then we had futher to wait for the rissotto! The member of staff was extremely nice and apologetic BUT what she didn't know was that it was my daughter's birthday and i felt it was spoiled by a less than average experience. Sorry Cote York this was not a good day ! I have eaten at many Cotes in London , Cardiff , Harrogate, Leeds and many times at York. What went wrong?

Very good food. Service was quite slow on the day, but the way I was treated later in the week made up for it. I had left my scarf by mistake; I called the next day then returned later in the week to collect it. I spoke to the duty manager about the evening I visited and he could not have been more helpful. I will certainly go back again

We are regular Cote customers. The quality of the food and the standard of service is excellent and easily beats the competition, even the relatively recent addition of The Ivy. We partcularly like the monthly changing set menus and specials.
