Such a delightful restaurant! The staff - especially Freya, Lianne and the manager Giuseppe were amazing. The food was superb - probably the best in Maidstone. Such a buzz in there - especially as it was quite early on a Monday evening! Thank you guys!

Fantastic evening at Maidstone’s Cote Brasserie. The staff were friendly as always and the food was excellent. For a ‘chain’ restaurant I think this is possibly one of the best.

I’ve always been a huge fan of Côte, after visiting the Bluewater restaurant and consistently being met with friendly, diligent staff members. My visit today at Maidstone was far from this; members of staff didn’t bother making eye contact and we were often without cutlery or glasses. Moreover, at the end of our meal when we paid, our transaction was queried in a fairly brash manner despite it going through and us showing confirmation directly from the mobile banking app. I am aware of the intensity and pressure restaurant staff are often under, however this should not impact the guest’s experience. Automatically placing a 12.5% gratuity on our bill was distasteful, and cemented our decision to remove it. Visiting for Mother’s Day, I was expecting a lovely and relaxed afternoon, yet it was ruined by the lack of professionalism of your staff, who often ran around clueless and not bothered about the needs nor satisfaction of their customers.

Really lovely evening. The restaurant was quiet enough for us to be able to talk without shouting. Nice, calm and easy atmosphere. Food was delicious--I'm a fussy vegetarian and wasn't sure about your veggie menu, but the dish I chose was wonderful! Attentive staff. Can't fault it.

We booked a table turned up and were told they had no tables- We were then told to go to the pub dor a drink-accross the road and wait which was the very last thing my wife and I wanted to do. It was a special occasion and we were really looking forward to it. I booked days before and our evening was ruined. We walked home back to the baby sitter which I still had to pay for.

This was one of those, sadly all too few, memorable culinary experiences in a brand restaurant. I compare with Marco Pierre White in Strandtown, Belfast a few weeks ago, which was dismal by comparison. So, service at Cote Maidstone was excellent. The moules and crab mayonnaise were delicious, but the Chateaubriand was something else . Perhaps the best cut of filet I have ever had and cooked to perfection, raw in the middle, pink then well done for the crust. All accompanied by a perfect St Emilion, served at room temperature. And a lovely Calvados with expresso to finish. Forgot the cheese, a good selection of four cheeses, also served at room temperature, not chilled so that you couldn’t taste them as is so often the case. On that basis, I highly recommend. The challenge is to maintain that standard! I’ll be back.....

The service was very good. We all had the formule, and the food was generally very good but the poached eggs were overcooked. However, the request to swap mushrooms for avocado was immediately agreed. The piped music was a bit intrusive, but tolerable. In summary, we enjoyed our visit and will return.

Lovely, excellent food. Nice, well laid out restaurant and with the high ceilings not the usual high noise levels found in other restaurants. Staff are very pleasant and helpful but like most restaurants in this part of the World somewhat inexperienced. Had to ask for cutlery on two occasions and side plates once but worse actually brought the wrong starter to the table. But overall very good. Certainly the best food I've had in restaurants in Maidstone.

For a chain restaurant, the quality of the food, the way it is prepared and the service is first class. The branch in Maidstone is quickly becoming one our favourite places to eat. Everything we had was tasty and fresh. Soft calamari with crispy coating to start. The Breton chicken is so good I have had it twice in a row. And a lovely coupe chocolat to end. Highly recommended.

We’d previously been to a Cote restaurant in London and had a wonderful meal experience and expected more on this visit to the new Maidstone restaurant. The food was bland. The waiter questioned my husband when he asked for his steak medium saying “are you sure?”The waiter couldn’t understand what garlic bread with cheese was. Noisy restaurant. Not an enjoyable experience. Will not be going back.

Another warm welcome and extremely pleasant meal. We had the Valentine meal with paired wines. When our waitress, Sally, heard I didn't have a sweet tooth she rustled up cheese and biscuits instead. Lost a star for presenting the wrong bill. Also we were not warned the extra glass of Macon Villages we requested was going to be £10.95!!

We had a very enjoyable evening. The food was good and well presented. I would have given 5 stars but because I was brought the wrong main course and had to wait about 10 min. for the correct one to arrive, I have only given 4 stars. However, this has not deterred me from returning. The bill was adjusted accordingly without having to ask!

Fantastic customer focussed service. Frank showed great respect and time in dealing with my mothers food intolerance. His service was both professional but unfussy and friendly. All staff were polite and professional. Food was as always, well cooked, presented and drink choices were great. Overall a lovely unrushed Sunday family meal.

Overall a very nice lunch, the steak cooked well - as ordered, the sea bass also very nice. The only recommendation I would make is that the 12.5% gratuity should not be included in the bill. It should be the customers choice whether to add it( we would of tipped anyway), I know it can be removed(if requested) but it is not down to the restaurant to presume they've provided good service and at what level the customer wants to tip. A disappointing end to an otherwise enjoyable lunch.
