The staff are amazing. Shame to be over charged on the bill for a desert we didn't order and was brought out as a birthday surprise. The set menu great value the egg walnut bacon salad was piled up way too much. The steak was perfect the chips were slightly under fried and my side of beans were so over cooked they looked opague reminded me of school dinners

I LOVE Cote. Everything is right about it and that’s why I chose to have a birthday meal there. However something interesting happened over desert. I rather fancied the cheese platter which I have had a few times before, so duly ordered it. However when it arrived this was the conversation that ensued with the lovely waitress; Us - nice selection of cheeses, aren’t there usually some crackers or biscuits to accompany it? Waitress - No, it’s just cheese Us - that’s a bit weird, loads of cheese on its own and nothing to eat it with? Waitress - That’s how the french have it Us - but seriously, nothing to eat cheese with? I’ve had this desert in other Cote’s and I’m sure it comes with some kind of cracker? Waitress - No, definitely just Cheese, I’ll check with the manager. Us - this is crazy, JUST cheese on its own and no accompaniment?? Waitress - yeah lots of people have said the same thing Us - and???? So you see, we are a little perplexed. Perhaps someone from head office could let me know if we were being crazy or if that is the norm nowaday?

Very pleasant meal. Menu was somewhat limited for me, especially the starters as I cannot eat shellfish. Very attentive service from staff. Would definitely return nevertheless.

I am finding more and more when I visit the Cote venues that there is a consistency with quality of service and food and ambiance. Very kind and well trained staff and front of house management. Food reminds me of the way Michelin started restaurants were in France 25 years ago but without the fussy attitude. Well done and keep this standards up!

The staff are great, very attentive. I think the food is okay. It does lack a little depth. For example, I had the fish stew and was pleasant but not something you couldn't make at home - my scale of what you would expect. Lamb was okay but not seared. All the things that take time to do and give the extra flavour. It is a great family restaurant and caters for everyone really.

We had a very enjoyable meal at Cote. We really appreciated the complimentary Bellini’s in celebration of our anniversary. The food was really lovely - we especially enjoyed our main courses - and well priced. The service was fantastic and we did not feel rushed at all. The staff were very conscientious and polite. Overall we had a really great time! Thank you.

Normally a good venue for meeting friends - but this time a wrongly placed order meant that two of the group were served, while the third was served a hot side order but not his main dish. That did not arrive for almost 20 minutes As for the food, a steak was over cooked, as was a sea bream. The third was proclaimed “OK, I suppose”. Although the waitress was very apologetic, this visit was nowhere as good as usual. A great disappointment. *to cover the misorder/delay, no charge was made for a glass of wine and three coffees.

The Manager and our server Lindsay were brilliant. Very attentive and couldn't fault a thing apart from my pork belly which i nearly always have was a bit too salty. My son who is now 12 loved his Birthday experience at Cote Esher.

As regular visitors to Cote - Enjoyed our evening, good environment, good service, food could have been slightly better - one of the Fillet Steaks was under cooked, others were very dry. Also food could have been served a little warmer. Great wine

Firstly I have loved Cote asI have always considered it good value for money and great food. Wasn’t the best experience last night. It was my birthday and am on crutches so messaged the restaurant a week prior requesting a table in the window and also rang the day before to confirm. We got there and this didn’t happen. We had our menus and eventually had to ask for my two birthday offer Kir Royals..These Normally these arrive as your booking site alerts the bar I believe. We complained to the manager about the table and he apologised and offered us a free bottle of wine,which was Vernice of him.I ordered Breton Fishstew which arrived with hardly any sauce so I sent it back. My husband ordered a spinach side and it arrived in a tiny dish and contained two spoonfuls. This cost £3.95 and frankly was an insult. I know times are hard but I could have bought two bags of spinach for this amount of money. Crazy to reduce the size of your side dishes. Further to this when are you going to change your menu. I hadn’t been for a while due to health issues and apart from a special it was the same as last year. Come on Cote you can do better. If Cafe Rouge can change their menu so can you. Heather Howell

Returned to spend our voucher we were given after bad experience on mother’s day. We had a much better time tonight. Lovely meal and good service. Shame side dish didn’t come out at the same time as main. Had eaten nearly half before it arrived. Didn’t spoil a nice meal. We will return.

Excellent food very well presented and the early menu is very good value. The staff were charming and polite, The only faintly negative point was that the restaurant was, not surprisingly, very full and the staff were struggling to cope. Service was when it arrived very good but a little bit slow for this reason the staff were hard pressed and were clearly doing their best to cope. I will certainly return on a regular basis.

Thought about going for ages as we'd heard the 'Veggie b'fast was good'... Avocado's were rock hard (x 4 covers) and my daughter's came without a mushroom. Staff pleasant enough; took money off bill as my coffee did not arrive after a 20 minute wait. In this day and age, MUST do better!! Willing to go back and see if they were having an 'off day'...

We use Cote quite a lot and it’s normally nice but this time it was most disappointing, the duck was dry and tough, it had obviously been pre cooked and warmed through, and although it was replaced with moules it was annoying as our guest who had steak had finished his meal before we received our replacement. The bill was adjusted but we were not atall impressed as it spoiled the evening.
