"We visited today after seeing the great reviews. We had 2 salt beef bagels and a tiramisu and cannoli to take away. Mayo was added to the first bagel without asking first which seemed unusual for a salt beef bagel but my husband didn’t want to be awkward so said it was fine. We live a short distance away and when we arrived home we ate, the bagels were awful with a stingy amount of very bland, fatty meat and untoasted bagel with a ridiculous amount of Mayo and Dijon mustard. It was the worst salt beef bagel we have ever had. We were hoping for better with the desserts but the tiramisu had no coffee taste and seemed to be made entirely with whipped cream and no mascarpone or ricotta. The cannoli was fine but nothing special. Such a shame after expecting good things. The staff were friendly but most of the food ended up uneaten and thrown away."

"Was recommended by someone to come in to the restaurant so thought we’d give it a try ... After 20mins on waiting around to be served we finally ordered our food , we then sat back down where the freezer was to the right of me and I could see someone pulling food from the freezer(named brands) out with their hands. After waiting a little more people came in to the coffee shop where they sat down , but the previous persons coffee cups had stayed and they were not moved for the whole of the duration of the couple sitting down , no tables were cleaned and other tables had dirty plates on them. There were a couple of cakes , which I witnessed being cut without a glove on and the cake fell into their hand.... A little while later our food came out where the server didn’t know what food he was giving us and went back into the kitchen to shout to the “chef” and ask what is what , while they argued . Our order was wrong and we was asked “what do you want me to do about it , this is what your ordered” when it wasn’t in fact , I felt very intimidated and just said it’s fine leave it. While eating I could see the kitchen and could see the father and son arguing in the kitchen about another issue and were not very quite about it... The food was nice after all but customer service, cleanliness and attitude about the business is all wrong could defo do with some music as it’s very quite and atmosphere isn’t great !"

"Mike, our waiter, was fantastic with our daughter, who was obsessed with him. All the staff were attentive and kind. The manager made sure everything was perfect with our meal. It would have been helpful if they had a baby changing station. The restaurant was very busy with families and young children. Overall, it was a wonderful first Mexican dining experience for our little one. Thank you!"

"Ferraris was lovely. A friend and I went for lunch we could not fault a single thing. A lovely, calming atmosphere, with lovely decor I particularly liked the old fashioned Italian photos on the walls. The service was friendly but professional. The range of options in both the set menu and a la Carte were very good (and tempting! . We opted for the set menu but they kindly allowed us to have a starter from the a la Carte. The food was lovely and portions just the right size. I highly recommend the scallops (which you can have as a starter or main and the panna cotta (a favourite dessert of mine was gorgeous. We also had a bottle of wine with the three courses and very reasonably priced. I will definitely become a regular and cannot wait to go back!"

"I booked originally for 6pm and had to change to 6:30pm due to traffic. I hadn’t confirmed The new booking so the host could not find a booking for us. It was my father’s birthday and I was really worried I had messed it up. The host, was fine and was still able to get us seated, we were very pleased with that. We were given a choice of tables, and as a larger guest, I was able to be seated comfortably. We’re we’re served by Tom. S ,for the evening. OMG! What a charming and delightful waiter. He was attentive, had great banter and held a wonderful conversation, wished my father a happy birthday, and tended to my wine being filled up all evening. He made us feel wonderful, and made me feel like a million dollars. The food was absolutely superb, French onion soup was perfectly seasoned, the croutons were Devine along with a salty cheese. Loaded with sweet onions: The liver parfait my husband had was delicious he said. My dad and husband had the beef bourguignon, and I had the chicken, gratin with a side of dauphinois potatoes… Again… absolutely perfect. The service here was top notch, and Tom.S made our first experience at Côte the best. He is a first class waiter, that I would compare to the the likes of The Ritz and The Savoy. Fantastic personality, and very well groomed and presented. What a fabulous and marvellous team member you have there. Cherish that! We will definitely return, and recommend this restaurant highly. 5 Service from Tom.S and the chef."
