Delicious food and very reasonably priced if you get there before 7 pm. The High Street Kensington branch is in a pedestrian street and has tables outdoors.

I would normally give a 5 as the staff are always helpful and friendly and food is simple but good, however, this time, my fish was a little rubbery.

Another excellent lunch at this good restaurant just off Kensington High Street. The menu offered a wide choice, including seasonal items, and the wine was excellent.

This restaurant is a favourite of ours in Kensington and indeed all over central London. The service is brilliant and they have an exceptionally reasonable early menu which you can get before 7pm definitely worth a go. Their breakfasts are amazing too. A must try.

Disappointed with table as had booked a week before. Service quick and efficient - We had the pre theatre menu . Food good- best steak frites we had had in a Cote restaurant, creme caramel as good as ever and excellent bottle of Malbec. All in all perfect for what we wanted which was a quick meal before a concert. Very good value.

After being seated was ignored by the waiter for 30 minutes. When I commented he was surly. Food eventually arrived ok. Need to sharpen their act.

We are regular diners at this Cote. The welcome and atmosphere was as friendly and warm as usual. It was my friend's birthday and they treated us to complimentary kit royal on arrival. Another great experience, and the reason that we love this bistro.

Consistently high standard, good menu, well cooked and presented, excellent value and friendly service. Cote does everything well at the top of their game. Most other restaurants could learn a lot from them.

Excellent food, terrific service and a very welcoming/attractive venue. Having eaten in three different Cote establishments (York, Chester and Kensington) I am delighted to give the maximum rating available. If there was a 10 then I'd award it!

Venue is nice and the staff very attentive. My daughter and I ordered the steak and it was as tough as an old boot. Would not recommend the steak.

The staff were very welcoming and the service was very attentive. We chose from the set evening menu and the choice was extensive and the value was very good and the food was cooked to perfection. We had a very enjoyable evening and would visit again but would recommend Cote Kensington for the staff and the ambience. Thank you for making our evening.

not so good - breakfast was cold although they didn't charge for it but service was dreadful. to be fair they seemed to have several new staff on so I guess we just picked the wrong day! Not up to their normal standard

Fabio looked after our table of four with charm, flexibility and kindness. A good meal for us all. But the one huge drawback is the heat in that restaurant. I am a local and have been there many, many times. But I no longer go in the summer because we just melt in those premises: it could not be a more uncomfortable experience to eat food whilst sweating. I remembered to bring a fan last night, but the other three people did not. Far, far too hot - why oh why is there no air conditioning? I believe that the windows cannot be opened because of neighbours' complaints, so air con is an unavoidable requirement. My companions enjoyed everything about the meal, but they say that they will not return to boil again. I cannot invite people there now. Please, please invest wisely in air conditioning.

Wide choice of food, well prepared and presented, not overly expensive and friendly helpful service. Only minus would be that tables are quite close together and when a group of eight men arrived at the table next to us conversation up and down their table was too loud (always a problem with larger groups); however our waiter allowed us to move to a vacant table further away and helped transfer our food and drinks.

We arrived a little early which didn't phase them and the staff were charming. The restaurant was extremely busy so somewhat noisy, particularly as quite a lot of young kids in there. Service and food both excellent ...

Lovely place, good service and great value. It doesn't pretend to be fine dining, but instead offering a wide range of really good, well cooked French food at reasonable prices, with staff who are pleasant and trying to do their best. The staff could see we wanted to discuss things, so they offered us a range of tables, including one outside of the main hubbub to allow us to chat.
