Côte Islington

Lovely meal. Ciro, our waiter/manager has excellent customer service skills. From the October specials the fig cocktail was delicious. I had haddock- very nice. My friends lamb dish was very good- and a decent serving of meat. Very pleased cote has reopened and I look forward to returning soon.

Coming back after many months - as good as ever. Same friendliness, same delicious bread, same careful cooking.

Lovely meal and staff were attentive with a rude guest. Would visit again

Great to be back at Cote Restaurant today, the usual good food and pleasant helpful staff

Côte has done a great job to observe the ridiculous Covid 19 requirements laid down by this befuddled government as discrete as possible. The food and service, and the ambience, were as good as they were in March this year, before the pointless lockdown. Well done!

Wonderful every single time. The food, the wine, the vibes - always on point. Highly recommend especially the Islington branch

Lovely to see so many of the staff back again. Excellent service and the restaurant felt very Covid safe. Although there is a truncated menu, all then old favourites are still there and my friend and I enjoyed a well cooked and delicious lunch. I highly recommend.

Lovely to see Islington branch reopen. Great service by Karin. Lovely food and a great visit.

Lovely to be back ! Service excellent and food great !

My wife and I always enjoy eating at your Islington branch. We know the staff well and we came call them as friends.

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 !!!

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.

Four of us had an excellent lunch. The rhubarb cocktail is absolutely delicious, the asparagus dishes we had for starters plus the salmon special and the sea bass were perfect. Our puddings were also up to your usual high standard though one of our party's personal taste was for a softer taste de pommes than she got. Wine and teas excellent too.

The food is always delicious and good value but it’s the staff that make the evening special . They always are so lovely , perfect !

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

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.

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.

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.

This is one of the best restaurants in London my also favorite place to eat here in Islington. Prices are very reasonable and the food excellent.

Cost more than i expected Wait between courses was a little long. Staff friendly Nice atmosphere ,, , ,,,,,,, ,,, ,

Great staff, always with a warm welcome. good service, and exceptional chef Would recommend

As always excellent brood , great value and very nice bottle of wine! We said today,we have never had a bad meal in Cote,food is consistently good whichever Cote we dine in.Having eaten in most of central London's branches and several outside London.

Excellent food, good service, nice surroundings and good wine. The lamb rump with fennel was cooked to perfection, as was the calamari. Always good value for money.

Restaurant unusually quiet for 8.30 on a Thursday evening, however that just improved the service, usually good anyway. We dined from the Prestige menu, which was good value and made a change from the a la carte

Always a great option ahead of an event at the Union Chapel

We love Cote! The service is always slick and smiley, and the breakfasts delish! Will be returning for sure. Sorry for opening the display jam jar! Many thanks Islington team.
