I booked a table at Cote Dorchester for my sister's 16th birthday. All of the staff, including the managment team were lovely. They brought over a cake at the end of the meal and sung "Happy Birthday". I could not have wished for a better evening. Thank you Cote Dorchester!

Confident of a pleasing reception we enjoyed another good meal. Service was pleasant and efficient without being over bearing. The Breton Fish has to be a total winner and my sirloin steak was cooked as I woulkd do do myself - excellent.

We had a great meal and introduced some friends who’d never been to Côte before. Most of us had the weekend special menu and I had the April special, Côte de Veau which was superb, followed by the tarte aux mirabelles

My experience of Cote Dorchester is invariably good in all respects. My only comment tionigty was that the Swordfish dish might have benefitted from more seasoning and fewer capers.

We had a table of 9,2 being young children . We had a warm welcome and were pleased that they had a children’s menu. All the dishes were of a high standard and the right temperature. As always the biggest gripe is the tip added on to the menu! Which gets everyone I knows back up who dine at the Côte! A shame I believe many would be more generous without that being added.

Superb evening. Just my partner and I, we arrived around 7pm after booking earlier in the day. A choice of tables and lightening quick service. To the point that after our starters came out so quickly we asked for a delay of 30 mins before the main being served. Food was lovely and a good selection on the menu. Drinks were reasonably priced and food was well worth it = I'd say a fair price for the quality.

The food was excellent and atmosphere was really pleasant. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. I would have preferred to leave a cash tip. I asked if we could leave a cash tip and was told I couldn't. I am sure the website said this was optional. That is my only complaint as it was rather steep.

The most consistent restaurant I have ever known. The staff - many of whom have been working there for a long time which speaks volume - are professional and friendly and know they customers. Very impressive evening on 29 March 40 plus pleople in a group and all stages of the meal served at the same time. Love that place!

We all enjoyed dinner, cooked to perfection, a very varied menu. The staff were very attentive, from being met at the door, to serving the food, and checking that everything was Ok. We also had free gin and tonics as regular customers as long as we ate from the ala carte menu. We will be back.

Delightful staff who were so pleasant and helpful. It was a friend’s birthday lunch and we were given complementary drinks. Our friend was also given a birthday candle and extra strawberries and white chocolate sauce with the words Happy Birthday piped around her plate! A very happy experience. All the food was delicious!

Great evening. Was given a booth which we hadn’t had before and was great. We were offered our complimentary drinks without having to ask which made you feel like your booking had been managed well. Friendly staff and not over attentive which was good. Good atmosphere and food was excellent and beautifully presented. Had a lovely relaxed evening. Thank you.
