Côte St Albans

Staff were wonderful food was not. No spice taste in prawns. Burger was awful.

Pleasant friendly team of servers Well presented tasty food served swiftly in difficult circumstances (Covid restrictions etc) Pity there are no set menu 2/3 course deals as a la carte only can get expensive Crispy skin on the belly pork next time please....lovely dish otherwise Creamed spinach was superb thx !

Good service, good food, good selection, well worth 5 Stars. BGD

Quite a few dishes not on the menu this evening. Also a change of menu overdue!

Really liked the meal but I felt it was really cheeky to add a tip of almost 20 percent to the bill. The tip had been added before the government scheme reduction. Not impressed,

The food was good, the service was polite, friendly and attentive. We felt comfortable that the well being of both staff and guests was being taken seriously. We had a relatively late lunch, so the restaurant may have been busier earlier. What I can say is that our order was cooked promptly, and that the volume in the restaurant allowed a gentle conversation without having to strain to make yourself heard. That made for a relaxed and enjoyable meal - exactly what you would want regardless of Covid. Nice job well done.

We've been to Cote lots of times and never been disappointed. Apres lockdown was very efficient and felt very safe. Great food as usual and top service.

Excellent service .and very aware of covid19.hand sanitizing and staff with masks As usual food excellent

Fine wine, excellent food and very good service from Costa and the waitress

I am a regular at Cote (usually St Christopher‘a Place) but this was the first time my sister & husband had visited. We all enjoyed our food immensely.

Very pleasant staff. Felt very safe and clean. Not too busy.

Food amazing, its nice to see the place busy but still keeping social distancing for a Monday night. Great service. The only thing was it was very hot in there, i’m not sure if you couldn’t have aircon on due to covid though.

Went to Cote for the first time on my birthday at the end of July, loved it so much that we came back two weeks later with my mother in law. Both times the food was exceptional and I can't wait to come back.

Great experience as always. Lobster was delicious a real treat Thanks guys!

Returned from West London to St Albans within a week to re-live the experience, thank you very much! The staff was attentive and helpful, the food was divine! Will come again!

Always good choices for coeliacs. Good social distancing Staff wearing visors

Food was excellent! Service was ok, but nothing special. A bit slow for not a busy restaurant at that time. We will be back! Thank you

Lovely food and service! So nice to go to a restaurant after so many months. This felt like a real treat. The pork belly was delicious and great value

Very smart french restaurant with fabulous menu. We enjoyed our choices and my sea bream was cooked to perfection. The chocolate fondant was beautiful. Service was polite and friendly. A very enjoyable experience.

Our first visit since reopening and was as good as usual despite the necessary covid restrictions - lovely food and felt safe, tables well apart. |Staff all wearing face coverings and very attentive and welcoming.

Generally consistently good food and service. No glazed carrots any more was a shock but staff friendly and helpful.

Comfortable atmosphere, amazing food, fab staff, can always count on my favorite place.

Amazing steaks and lovely service finished by a yummy cheese board. Will definitely be visiting again very soon.

Food was average & service was non existent. Server was nothing more than an order taker. Host who seated us when asked if we could order a drink from her “hurry up I’m on the door” followed by “I’m only joking”. Ordered lamb medium came rare, when asked if we wanted any sides asked the server what it came with she said potatoes so we ordered peas only to see the lamb came with peas! Clearly no menu knowledge. No topping up of wine, no check back, change of cutlery just thrown down not placed properly yet 12.5% service charge for what service? . And restaurant was not busy. One member of the management team just walks around doing nothing she could have been checking on tables etc at least! Won’t be returning as very disappointed after first outing in over 5 months.

Fab service - great food ... nice to be back !

Great food and service, we had a really great time.

This was my second visit to this restaurant the venue is beautiful, the food is delicious and the staff couldn’t be any more friendlier and the service was exceptional. I’ll definitely be back and look forward to it.

Superb! We hadn't been out for months due to lockdown but it was well worth the wait. The service was excellent, well organised, warm and friendly. The food was exceptional and all round a great experience. Thank you for such a fantastic evening, can't wait to visit you again very soon!

All the staff were so kind, cheerful and they gave excellent service. The food was delicious. We were not rushed and waitresses gave us plenty of time to sit over our meal.

Superb staff. Excellent food. What more could you ask for.

The venue was so very hot we had to leave early. They had experienced a power failure and issue with the gas main so in fairness under the circumstances the team a managed it as well as they could.

Excellent food as ever and reliable service. Too warm for comfort due to lack of air conditioning policy with regard to Covid-19, but otherwise great.

Excellent food and service. Staff very attentive and helpful. Very good with social distancing and working with the 'new normal'.

Great food and service. We visited with our elderly parents and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Sat in the courtyard garden on a very hot evening which had a nice ambience and some partitioning that kept the sound volumes low.

As usual a great meal and excellent service. Thank you.

Fine food and wine Lovely helpful and friendly staff Good to be back!

Food and staff excellent as always, a little warm tonight inside to be comfortable.

Underwhelming, especially the dessert menu. Could have done with more USPs on the menu.

Sitting outside on a hot evening was glorious. My friend and I took advantage of the eat out to help out scheme. I eat the same dish every time but last night the food didn’t meet the same high standards. My calamari was cold and the chicken was tough.

So nice for restaurant to be back open, great food and service as always.
