    Extremely impressed by the level of service and the quality of the fresh food. We had no complaints! The manager Christina was excellent, I would like to highlight this to management. She looked after our needs and expectations hugely. The waiters were also attentive, friendly and highly efficient. Thank you all for looking after us. Katie x

    🌟 Lunch at Cote🌟 Today, we enjoyed a lovely lunch at Cote with their set menu. We started with the Truffled Corn Veloute which was rich and comforting, followed by the Confit Duck Rarebit , a savory and satisfying dish. For mains, we had the Fish Parmentier, hearty and flavorful and the classic Steak Frites, cooked perfectly and juicy. To finish, we tried the Blueberry Financier, which was a delicious end to our meal, balancing sweetness and texture wonderfully. Overall, it was a delightful experience with thoughtfully prepared dishes. The staff were very friendly and attentive Highly recommend! 🍽️💖

    The dining experience fell short of expectations. While the service was impeccable, from arrival to payment, including prompt service and helpful wine recommendations, the food quality was subpar. Both the ribeye and sirloin steaks were unsatisfactory; the sirloin, served with butter, and the ribeye, served only with fries, lacked sufficient accompaniments. The ribeye's texture was tough, and the absence of sauce detracted from the overall enjoyment. Desserts were adequate but not exceptional; only the macaron in the mini trio was noteworthy. The hot chocolate was unremarkable, a 5/10 rating at best, lacking richness and depth of flavor, with insufficient, runny whipped cream. Furthermore, an unexpected rodent intrusion disrupted the meal. Improvements in food quality are essential to enhance the overall guest experience.
