"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."

"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."

"The experience at this restaurant has consistently been fantastic. We gather once a month for happy hour and enjoy our favorite three dishes for £16. The staff is wonderful and down-to-earth, which adds to the charm of the place. I particularly love the lively atmosphere created by the older patrons enjoying their drinks. We usually visit on Tuesdays or Wednesdays, as Thursdays tend to be quite busy and attract a younger crowd, which makes it less ideal for us. Midweek is just perfect for our gatherings."

"The staff were very friendly, which is the main reason I’m giving them 2 stars. Unfortunately, the food was terrible. We experienced a long wait, and when our meals finally arrived, we found that both of us were missing items from our plates. When we brought this to the staff's attention, they informed us that the items had run out and offered us a substitute instead. The food was extremely greasy and tasted like old oil, and it was served lukewarm to cold. While the staff were kind enough to remove one drink from our bill, I won’t be returning. I forced myself to eat the food because I was starving, but I regretted it afterward. I wouldn't recommend this place, especially on weekends."
