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?

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!

Pleasant place to eat, plenty of space and not too noisy. Usually, as it was yesterday, a relaxing experience to spend with family and friends.

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

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.

An excellent evening with friends and a very good meal off the new weekday set menu. Your rib eye steaks are terrific - and the welcome we received from the team in Esher was friendly, professional and much appreciated.

Two of our main courses (steaks) were luke warm along with the french fries. The other two sword fish dishes had a strange smell and taste. My wife left most of her fish course.

The food was good but the service was extremely slow. So slow that while we were waiting for our starters we asked for some bread and olives to tie us over. The waitress brought the bread but never brought the olives which did not help the coeliacs in our group.

The best table available and it was much appreciated. However I had with goats cheese salad and have to say there's a lot more salad, particularly soggy leaves than there was goats cheese. My husband had the steak tartare and Breton stew which was very nice and I had the creme brulee which again was delicious.

Had the mussels which I have had loads of times. Supposed to be in white wine cram and garlic sauce. They appeared to have missed out on the cream. It was so watery, inedible! . A few bad mussels as well. Pointed this out but no replacement offered.

Our waiter was fantastic. We are regulars to the chain and live the food service, however there was clearly something different in food quality with this experience. Particularly the celeriac mash I was meant to have with the set steak was in fact potato mash. That’s ideal for me, except that it was extroadinarily bad, cold, lumpy, pre-cooked, heated up mash! Really goes against your usual quality and reputation. The couple next to us had the same thing. On a personal taste point, we went to cote because we love what you normally do, we didn’t like the set menu which we found restricting. Petals on the napkin was a nice touch though.

Overall the meal was good but restaurant busy and service a little slow. Quite surprisingly advised , after taking the order, that garlic bread was not available. Had to suffice with plain bread .

The food was mostly delicious except for over cooked burgers which were blackened and dry, but overall experience let down by the service. Table wasn’t cleared repeatedly from the unused wine glasses to the starter plates remaining on the table when our mains were served. Orders weren’t taken without prompting and our first waiter walked off halfway through taking the drinks order leaving half the table out. The second waiter we had was clearly having a bad day or in the wrong job as he was snooty, snappy & plain rude! We requested he adjust the 12.5% tip for a lesser amount and he proceeded to snap at us for not telling him sooner. Management would do well to replicate the high standards in the kitchen to front of house for this place to be a success. There were only a few tables on a busy bank holiday weekend.... I understand why!

Here in Esher we enjoyed a super friendly service, where the staff made us feel really important, and gave us the option of moving our table to the one near the window. We didn’t have to wait long until we received our meal, and the ambience was really homely and comforting. Food is good! Recommend Experience Thanks
