Love Cote! Always have a warm welcome & great food there. Sorry to hear that Gustavo the Manager is being sent to Muswell Hill, he will be missed.

So glad our local Cote is back. Great food, lovely staff, nice room and very good value. Nice background music too, which is rare. Do check out Cote at Home - the meals and food from the butchery are similarly excellent.
the staff were as lovely as always. Food and service very good, what more could we ask for!
Food and service excellent. Relaxed atmosphere and all care taken with distancing.
Friendly good food and service Pleased it has re opened
Excellent service - good to back after 6 months The manager was great as usual made us feel welcome
Lovely to be back at Cote Islington. Great food and service. The space felt safe and comfortable. Well done.
Wonderful to be back in my favourite Côte All the staff were welcoming, food fabulous as usual
We were welcomed back after the Covid-19 closure with complimentary cocktails, excellent food and service, and a very safe environment. It was excellent.
Good to see you open again and nice attentive staff as always. Felt a little pricey …. all of the add-ons including sauces, olives etc made it quite expensive overall The newly opened Bellanger next door offers a more luxurious environment and sensibly priced food - i think you might need to offer better deals. We want to stay loyal to your brand! Andrew
Good to be back at a favourite restaurant. Food, service both very good.
Overall we loved the return to opening at Islington Green. Yes fewer tables meant less people and a slightly less vibrant atmosphere, but the food was excellent and the portions generous , and the service as always was attentive and friendly - we missed you!!
It was lovely to be back - the food was lovely and the staff were so kind and welcoming. A-star restaurant !!!
Very friendly and food always well prepared. We go to the Islington restaurant a lot and have never been disappointed. The moules and frites are particularly good.
Staff were welcoming and helpful. Food arrived in good time and order was all correct.
A great experience and good value. We will continue to come here often.
As usual, very relaxed atmosphere with good food. Great for meeting friends without having to worry about the meal and get on and talk! Still have to learn about trends in drinks – cucumber in a gin & tonic – but all taken care of.
A lovely Sunday lunch with our son. We were sorry that the duck was finished, but we enjoyed the chicken, lamb and pork belly. We were impressed by the good choice for those eating gluten free, and the care taken to ensure food was correctly identified and served. The restaurant was pleasantly busy, and service was attentive without being overwhelming.
I have been visiting Cote- Islington for a number of years now & always find it a pleasant experience. Not only are the staff welcoming & friendly but the food is amazing, with such a choice it is hard to choose at times. Thankyou.

I’ve been to Islington Côte several times and the food and service are always excellent. Very good value for money, consistently delicious and also a good wine menu.
Excellent as usual. Very good food in a totally relaxed atmosphere. All due to friendly well trained staff

I was very disappointed in the food at cote brassiere despite changing my order 2nd time food was still appalling, I opted for the veg breakfast which was undercooked veg sausage, brown avocados and almost burnt toast then I chose the eggs Florentine the hollandaise was disgusting and the muffins were so stodgy and claggy I felt sickly after eating this, don't think I will be returning back
I love this restaurant. You must have a really good chef because the food is always delicious and the staff really professional. 5 Stars !
Very good food as usual. Never been disappointed. The rhubarb cocktail to start was delicious. And the creme brûlée is unbeatable
Perfect supper with our niece to discuss travel plans... and the future of life.... nice food, good company, great wine
Being Coeliac Cote is a god-send. Very tasty, great choices and staff . Very enjoyable
Had a fantastic evening with friends - great service and great food. One person had gluten free menu and said it was best ever. Will def go again.
Enjoyed food and excellent value Really helpful and pleasant staff. Pork special deal was actually better than a la carte duck which was a little tough. Really nice bottle of Chardonnay which suited both dishes and gorgeous orange crepe special
I think Cote at Islington is one of my favourites in this chain. Always a warm welcome and friendly service. Today was no different for my friend and I for a rather late lunch which was delicious. French onion soup followed by veal T bone for me and Stilton salad followed by duck for my friend. We even managed a dessert which is most unusual. As always, excellent service from the staff who are cheerful and helpful.
Excellent Service. Excellent Food. Filet Steak could have been a bit bigger. Ambience great. All the staff in the restaurant are lovely. Will he back again.
Very friendly efficient service from cheerful staff. The specific table we had booked was still Occupied so the manager offered us a drink on the house which showed a touch of class. The food represents exceptional vale for money for a restaurant in central London. George Healy

I love this Islington branch of Cote. It’s one of those few restaurants that really feels like a neighbourhood go-to and whether I’m there for a weekday coffee and pastry, weekend breakfast or lunch with the in-laws there’s a guaranteed warm welcome and good service. Please keep it up and thank you!
excellent as always - one of our favourite Cote venues. Food was very good and prompt attentive service. Would strongly recommend the lamb main. Good choice of wines also.
Lovely experience nice atposphere and staff were attentive good quality food - steak is banging!
Great service and always a pleasure coming here. My partner and I love coming to this particular branch the staff are warming and the food is always amazing! Thank you for the Gin it was amazing
As always, we had a delicious meal and the service was fantastic. Thank you
Consistently good experience. Our favourite local restaurant. Menu changes regularly but the regular dishes are first class. Staff are all well informed and work with pride.
Love Côte. Never fails to please. Miss the Camden branch.
A group of friends and I regularly meet at the Cote Islington and especially enjoy the early evening/pre theatre menu which is good value. The staff are great and the atmosphere is good.
Not up to the usual high standard,had to send the first garlic/parsley bread back.Tasted like it had been defrosted and not thawed out in the centre and very dry tasting.Also the main course came up immediately after starting eating this and had to go back.Also noticed the usual candles were not put out so maybe this is not happening now.
We had a wonderful dinner, and staff were fantastic - they looked after us really well and made sure that our experience was great. Thank you!
Great food. Lovely, friendly service. Absolutely no complaints.
You can always relay on good old Cote with food and service
Very nice Father's Day lunch - great friendly staff. A favourite.

Yum,,Yum.,,, Fabulous staff and fabulous food we really enjoy the experience and the welcoming atmosphere as we come on a regular basis !! ISLINGTON is the most friendly Côte M
Four of us had an enjoyable meal though the restaurant was very busy and we had to wait for wine until after we were halfway through our starters, which were delicious. The main courses were very good but my gluten free meal was almost cold which is not the first time to happen in this restaurant. The manager was absolutely charming, he seemed to be doing most of the work and made amends for the waiting time. We enjoyed our lunch as usual.
Cote Islington is never less than good, but yesterday it hit excellent. The service, as always, was friendly and efficient, but last night the food excelled.
For once a great London restaurant that is not screamingly noisy. Food was delicous. Service was great. This is a gem in Islington which I will certainly revisit.
Had to wait a while before someone came to greet me on entry - but otherwise staff very welcoming and efficient. Food realiable as always. Enjoythed the French 75 cocktail.
Great food, lovely setting, friendly and helpful staff - thank you!
