The staff are always very professional and the food is consistently good. Have eaten at Cote in excess of 30 times and only ever had one bad meal, a very overcooked pork belly in the Bluewater restaurant in Kent. Other than that, it has been ten out of ten every time.

Could have done without two ladies who had piercing voices giving the whole room their life story and whether they would run out of money. Not the Restaurants fault, but irritating.

Oxford cote was having problems with its gas supply when we arrived for Sunday lunch. The manager explained that there might be a delay but we accepted this and settled at our table. Within a few minutes bread and olives arrived “on the house”. A nice gesture which made the wait seem not long at all. Thank you oxford cote.

Cote was recommended to me by friends. What a wonderful find. Our three course meal was excellent. Each course delicious. The creme caremel being out of this world. The staff are efficient and quietly friendly. A delightful eating experience. I have already recommended Cote to my family and I hope to return soon. Thank you for a lovely lunch.

Our request for a quiet yet well lit area of the restaurant was clearly taken on board. The waiter was very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. The complimentary blood orange martini cocktail was delicious. We had a super time celebrating my mother’s 82nd birthday.

Very nice food, very nice complementary cocktails, a different table found for us when requested, very good gluten free options available, understanding (of gluten free needs) waiter, food arrived promptly (pre-theatre dinner). All good

The starters were OK, just mediocre, the risotto which we have had many times before was highly peppered and had clumps of rice rather than individual grains. Perhaps a new chef? the staff were apologetic and gave us free coffee's. Coffee and dessert was fine, on the other hand not much to go wrong with ice cream! The staff were attentive and concerned about our less than perfect meal.

The staff was nice, but waiting times between ordering and courses were way too long. One of the waiters spilled some food on my dad's jacket. He apologized, but normally restaurants give you something in return, free dessert or similar to apologise, nothing. I booked our table beforehand on the website and mentioned, that it will be my mums birthday. I am used that restaurants treat you a little bit special on these days, but again nothing like that happened. These points are what makes the difference to choose the restaurant over another one. As the food for us was nice, but nothing special, I'd rather not recommend this restaurant when someone was asking . We had a nice evening at the Cote Brasserie, but mainly because we were on holidays and therefore relaxed. There is still some room for improvement especially regarding customer service.

Delightful welcome from the staff and the evening began very well., Our food however took ages to arrive and we began to become very anxious about being late for the theatre. It took almost an hour for the first course to arrive, the food was very good although we had no time for dessert or coffee and the experience was spoilt by the stress of waiting for the food.

I always like eating at Cote - all over the country - but I know Oxford (where I go most regularly) is the best! Why? because of the quality of the service! You can work out our server, because I was at table 17 set for two at 1.00 today Monday 6th May. He was superb: helpful, efficient, humorous. The food was good, of course, and exceptionally good value. And the Saumur is terrific. Please pass this on, Richard Smail

Very busy but good as ever. Always a warm and friendly welcome and the food is consistently reliable. We were very politely asked by the manager to move to a different table so that he could accommodate a larger party and we were very pleasantly surprised to find that we had not been charged for our bottle of wine! Thank you very much.

We enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Cote. They had a promotion offering a free Rhubarb martini, it really was delicious! The staff were attentive, the food was delicious, especially the goats cheese starter. Our main chicken course was very good, however for me I much prefer the seafood linguine which I had on a previous visit. A great restaurant for a meal.
