The food is good value and the staff are friendly and welcoming. However the restaurant is very noisy with a poor acoustic, which detracts a little from the overall experience.
Lovely staff, friendly host, amazing food, manager brooding on girls from the bar was a bit unsettling and unprofessional. Would come back again. Overall great cozy place!
Great food and lovely, friendly staff in one of the better Cote branches in London. Had a relaxed feel to it and didn't feel packed in like some Bistros in London. Would definitely recommend and will visit again.
Always good but tonight particularly good! Maybe it’s the June special châteaubriant which tipped the scales. Delicious dinner and great service. Highly recommended
Great food, really good choices will fantastic staff. First time at this restaurant but will be going back in a few weeks.
Excellent food, quality and service, as always. Cote is always great for a meal or just a drink. My friends and I are regulars. Love it!
The lamb shank was just just what was needed in such cold weather and cooked just as I like it. We had a very nice bottle of wine on the house which went down very well after Dry January! Although we were an hour early we still managed to have our favourite table.
Food was slow to arrive. Staff going through the motions.
Love going to Cote! The service is always the best and food is so delicious!
An enjoyable eying with excellent food, the chateaubriand steak was superb.
Buzzing warm ambience, consistently good food and value for money. Excellent staff, always welcoming even very busy.
Truly a great French restaurant! We are often there for lunch (love chicken walnut salad) or dinner (our favourite is roasted seabass). We are happy to have it in our neighbourhood.
Lovely lunch - would have been perfect if the white wine we chose had been chilled ! Apart frim that service was great ! Food always the same good standard
Good meal as usual, BUT..... Just one problem as some of my veg was lukewarm. I did mention this when paying, but not whilst eating (as I didn't have time for a hold up if it was sent back) They apologised, but perhaps something more could be done when the food is slightly under par? Discount for next time perhaps?
Alberto (I believe that's the name of the amazing manager) made our evening very special with his amazing hospitality, thoughtfulness and kindness. The waitresses were very helpful, smiley and lovely too dispite it being a very busy evening! We had a lovely evening and left very happy! Thank you so much!!!! Kristina and Lewis
As always, great quality food, ambience and delightful waiting staff. Recently went to highly rated Brasserie at twice the price and half the quality and value. And next door to a Cote.
Great food , great service . It was a bit loud , the tables are a bit too close together but the staff make up for everything.
WE always book Cote Kensington for dinner when we visit the Royal Albert Hall. Yesterday was after a matinee performance, as always was very good.
It was excellent, no complaints. Food was well cooked and service was very efficient. Happilly recommend to anyone who wants good value for money food
Everything was fabulous. The food delicious and of high quality. The staff are very professional. Music too loud and poor choice, something soft and gentle would be better
Great service. My guest did not like her appetizer and the server was happy to exchange it for something else. Always a great dining experience at Côte. Happy to be a frequent diner.
Food was delicious and the service was good, however ran out of limes at the bar and unable to make cocktails. What bar runs out of lines and can’t make a cocktail?
A prompt and delicious lunch - very friendly service, well done Cote!
Excellent menu, quality food with charming French accent. You always feel like at home in extremely friendly atmosphere. Staff is very attentive and helpful. One of the best places in London to have a Sunday lunch with your family or/and friends.
The food as always was excellent and good value, and the service exceptional. I was presented with two free glasses of kir royale because it was close to my birthday, and a charming birthday card with a chocolate truffle!
The staff were extremely attentive and the food was excellent. We had a limited time as we were off to the theatre and the staff were very accommodating and the service was really quick.
Great evening, staff attentive without being intrusive. Food well above expectations, for a good value price. We had dairy & gluten intolerant people in our party, they were accommodated without fuss, very happy with the whole experience.
We had a lovely meal . The six of us had a lovely time. It was a very suitable end to a lovely day. The service was excellent. Staff were friendly. Thank you.
It was very lovely, great food, tasty, fast and fresh. Great atmosphere and good price. Booking was simple and great specials that change regularly and are inspiring
Very busy Sunday lunch time, but the staff worked very hard and we had an excellent 3 course meal within 2 hours. The complimentary drinks were most welcome.
Service was very good and staff were attentive. Food served quickly and overall was decent. Price was relatively reasonable (considering it was Kensington). Fries do deserve a special mention as they were amazing!
Nice offer to have free bottle of wine for signing up to newsletter. Very efficient and charming French waiter. We particularly like the Kensington Cote. Will come back for sure.
As always a totally successful eating evening out. And such pleasant treatment from your staff. Thanks Cote Kensington.
Lovely meal - my favourite duck breast with cherries cooked beautifully and the potatoes are excellent. We had a free cocktail with blood oranges - very good. Really enjoyable meal and the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Wonderful varied menu at a fair price. Wine was also very good. But what made the evening was the service and the manager who came over to talk and made the evening extra special.
Fantastic atmosphere, waiter was there when needed, but left us two it which was perfect! 2 course meal was incredible and such a good price
Have been here many times and always good. Pleasant staff in nice surroundings. Unfortunately, our main dish was very salty, but not enough that it spoiled it for us today.
Always excellent food and very good service. Pleasant staff always friendly and helpful. Ideal for pre theatre meals but needs to be booked as you wouldn't want to be dissappointed.
Very helpful and cheerful staff . Very busy . Food lovely . I’ve never had a bad meal at Cote. Ever. Thank you. Very enjoyable .
Everything was up to expectation and it was very good.
