Côte Kensington

Food is ok, need to improve the service. Tidy the tables. Do not rush between drinks/food/dessert. Let the guests finish before dinner drinks before wine/food arrives. Right now it does not feel professional.

This lovely French restaurant has an amazing menu and wine list. I would also highly recommend this place for its great atmosphere and welcoming, friendly staff.

The usual Cote standard- nice food at a great price. No matter where you are in the country Cote is totally consistent. Standard French bistro fare, always good and delivered by pleasant professional staff. Great value.

Outstanding restaurant. The food was incredible and the service was very good. The location by Hyde Park was very convenient. Arguably the best restaurant of our visit!

We eat here regularly and have since it first opened. Highly recommended Friendly, buzzy French bistro with solid well priced food. What more can you ask for?

We enjoyed a very good birthday... Thanks. It was very good and well made food. The desert was crazy! Only 4 choices buy the 2 we ask for were the best!

Excellent service as ever, prompt, attentive, help making for an excellent evening.

Popped up to Kensington to take my wife out for her birthday meal (she was working up there). Chose Cote because we enjoy the Covent Garden pre-theatre. So glad I did because, as usual, the food was excellent and a very reasonable price. Great service, efficient & friendly.

We arrived and was placed on a unsuitable table, but once we asked to be moved it was not a problem. Lovely staff especially the general manager.

Delicious food from SpecialsMenu with complementary gin & tonic cocktails. Excellent, cheerful service from enthusiastic team and great atmosphere. A perfect way to spend Friday evening.

Excellent service and food. It was busy but didn’t wait too long. Very polite and friendly staff. Loved the tomato soup and boeuf en croute.

Great food, good service, great value. Our fifth visit and it never disappoints.

Very friendly service, excellent food, and good value for money. A very enjoyable meal. My tart au citron was delicious. Tangy lemon and thin, crisp pastry. Thankyou.

As an elderly widow, your kind offer of the delicious chocolate mousse was much appreciated and enticing .Booking online was easy and successful, a booster for the morale of one who is not too skilled at IT work. .A very warm welcome was lovely,especially being alone on Easter Sunday. Staff were courteous and efficient. The Risotto Verde was wonderful, great flavour and most appropriate for a Springtime Lunch. The Chocolate Mousse was outstanding, followed by a perfect latte. The Cote at Kensington is my favourite, spacious, always well maintained, will return soon to my table by the window. Thank you for my Happy Easter experience.

Great good at a great price and lovely service. I honestly don't think I get better food at gastro pubs, and many of the so called 'top end' London restaurants.

Good food and good service always an enjoyable experience at Cote

It was a busy evening so the service was a little slower than usual but was excellent as always. Food was well presented, excellently cooked and tasted wonderful. All six of us had a different main course and they were all delicious.

Our entire experience from booking right through to leaving was excellent. I thought the staff were incredibly efficient and friendly, and given that the restaurant has to cater for a sudden rush of people going to concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, they do it so well. The food was amazing and authentically French. It doesn’t feel like a chain restaurant. My only criticism would be that the wine we were given as the complementary wine for signing up to the newsletter was not of a good enough quality for the restaurant. It was virtually undrinkable.

Lovely restaurant near the Royal Albert Hall perfect for pre concert meal. We were greeted by Alberto who was a delight, friendly and courteous. The food as usual was superb, service excellent and the staff were lovely! Definitely recommend.

Table was ready on time. Two of our group ordered moules and had to leave a high % of them as they were unopened and the linguine was over done.

The service was good and friendly, our cream spinach was watery and the green beans were not at all good, we couldn't work out what they had done with them, but it shouldn't be repeated. They were taken off the bill.

Our waitress was lovely and very attentive. The meal we had was very enjoyable.

Fantastic establishment! Great last minute find with quality food and service.

Busy time led to wrong cooking instructions on my steak and because of the crowd we were squeezed in by the bar. Not really appropriate or acceptable. This was however an unusual situation given our strong history with the chain. This too will pass.

Wonderful welcome by the Maitre'D, very friendly and efficient waitress together with a good valued meal and bottle of merlot! Will certainly return again in the future.

We are long term CÔTE enthusiasts and last night's visit confirmed our anticipation of an excellent meal in pleasant surroundings attended by professional, congenial staff. (not to mention the smoothness of the complimentary French 75). Merći CÔTE Kensington.

We are regulars at Côte. As always, excellent food, very good value for money and lovely service. This restaurant has a special formula, which works!

As always a very enjoyable evening. The food was your usual very good standard and the service was excellent. All the staff are extremely pleasant and welcoming.

Great food, nice friendly efficient staff, cute French atmosphere. Set menu is a great deal. We were noisy but the rest behaved. Nice that every table gets a jug of water.

Great service and food but can be a bit noisy

Reliable well cooked food. Lovely service. Good value menu

Good welcome staff very friendly. Food delicious but drinks bit expensive. Nice relaxing evening, nobody rushing you. Quite a walk to the loo! Very nice evening

Great cosy ambience, very friendly attentive staff even in such a busy 7pm crowd, particularly Giuseppe. A great variety of dishes and food is consistently good.

Excellent restaurant in Kensington. Good choice of French dishes, Decent wine list and fair prices. Staff very helpful. Not our first visit and we’ll go again when we are in London.

The food was very good . However overall experience spoilt by being wrongly charged for a free bottle of wine, despite being assured by the waiter that it was all dealt with.

Everything was excellent, just a few occasions when service could have been faster. We shall continue to use Cote Kensington for our six-monthly Old College get together.

Calamari starter good, asparagus risotto over-cooked and tasteless, peach crumble truly awful, no flavor and literally boiling hot. Drinks very expensive. Pleasant staff and good service.

This is the best spot for lunch in Kensington. It's a deal, it attracts a great crowd, the staff team could not be more helpful and lunch is delicious.

As always, reliable and tasty food in great surroundings with fantastic service.

Really lovely evening with good food, great service and great value for money. We definitely will be back again. The birthday candle and the simaging was the icing on the cake.
