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 !!!
this Cote has really lovely staff. The female manager, Marta, always makes sure you feel welcome and the waiting staff are helpful and nice. Great team.
Booked in January in response to the Free bottle of wine promo but when I came on 12th Feb I got neither the wine or the new marketing offer of a free Kirsch cocktail so a bit disappointed . Pork meat a bit too salty so only eat half of meal. Half chicken meal not so well cooked or presented for my colleague either so he only eat half. Usually have good value for money but at £30 a head for lunch it seemed a bit pricey for the food quality.
The food is always delicious and good value but it’s the staff that make the evening special . They always are so lovely , perfect !
A very enjoyable breakfast. Lots of choice but limited if you don’t like eggs. Very good service. Lots and f competition in this area but I will return again.
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.
I had wonderful evening with my friends. All the dishes were delicious! The staff was friendly and professional. Lovely atmosphere! Highly recommended. I’d come back again.
Excellent as usual. Very good food in a totally relaxed atmosphere. All due to friendly well trained staff

Fab meal 👍. Liked the quality of food served. Will be back, will try more branches too. Just wish you would have a better selection of cold beverages.
Fantastic evening. We all really enjoyed ourselves. Wonderful food and service. I would thoroughly recommend a visit to Côte. I’m looking forward to our next visit and what next month’s specials will be.
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
This is a lovely restaurant with good food at reasonable prices and lovely helpful staff.
Lovely staff, good food and great value for money, always have a brilliant time at Côte 😀
Menu choice very good. Food well presented and flavoursome. Staff attentive, helpful and pleasant.Our group of 6 friends enjoyed our "catching up" leisurely lunch very much,and were not rushed at all. I had asked for a quiet table and apologies were made, as there was a large group nearby. But,as the restaurant was very busy, some noise was inevitable. We all agreed that it was a place to return to when we meet again.
Lovely food and lovely service, great price. We come here often. And keep coming back. The breakfast and dinner menus are great. Our favourite place in Angel
Efficient and friendly service. Made to feel so welcome by all the staff.
Lovely Sunday breakfast. Good quality products. Only down for me was burnt brioche but the rest was fab. Would recommend and go back again
I would have awarded 5 stars but we were a little disappointed that we didn’t get our free martini. We did say we wanted food off the lunch menu initially but it turned out only one of the party had the lunch menu the rest of the table ordered off the a la carte. The free martini was not offered again. Hence the lower star for overall and service. Maybe we should have asked but we didn’t think to do so. We did have a nice lunch despite this.
Great food and very good service. Always friendly, comfortable and excellent offers. This is a go to choice for me when meeting friends in Islington. Always comes unto expectations. Thanks for a great heaven with reasonable prices.
Excellent and attentive service as usual. Choice of food good. Our free G&T was well received. Thanks to the team at Islington Cote top team!!
A warm welcome. I mentioned when booking we were celebrating my friends birthday, we were given a complimentary Kir Royale which was very much appreciated and enjoyed. The sevice was excellent as always. Food tasty, lots of choice. Reasonable prices and relaxed atmosphere
Had a lovely meal and loved the April specials menu. I ordered all the courses and was indeed happy with my selection. Well done guys your menus are just getting better and better. Service was wonderful too. The manager was a really great hostess. Thanks for my birthday drinks and dessert 💕
Well first off we decided to go a whole 2 hours before our actual reservation and they were able to accommodate us. So that was the first win. I'd reserved online initially and put down that one person was dairy and gluten free. As we were seated at our table, a gluten-free menu was immediately presented to us, without having to ask. And it was the same size as the normal menu! The staff were amazing, the food was yummy, they didn't make my partner feel like he was a nuisance for having dietary requirements. Definitely going back.
The staff are fantastic, and the food is great. Well done to the staff tonight, you made everything perfect.
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.
Initially there was some confusion over my special offer and I had to be quite assertive to have it upheld. However, the staff were very polite. Regarding the service, I thought it could have been a little more attentive, especially when 12.5% is automatically added to my bill, e.g.it took a little while for someone to come and take our order despite the fact it was early evening and there were very few people in the restaurant; once the dessert menu was brought the waiters seemed to forget to return to take our order; similarly, having received the bill, we needed to attract someone’s attention in order to pay it.
Good food, served imeccably as always. This restaurant never disappoints, in my opinion it is one of the best in Islington. Staff always pleasant and welcoming.

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.
We went for Mother’s Day and had lovely service and the food was great value, there is something for everyone on the menu. Would recommend based on this experience.
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.

Very nice staff who even checked back that we had decided to go vegetarian even though we asked for the vegan version of the menu. Always a nice place to eat.
