This was our first visit to Cote. The service was excellent and the atmosphere is pleasant. Two…read moreof us had the Beef Bourguignon and my wife had the chicken. The food was tasty. Portion size was fine. We appreciated the fact that we were not rushed and that we could enjoy a pleasant evening of good food and fine conversation. We would come here again.

We came to Cote for my hubby's birthday. It was a Tuesday night so it wasn't too busy and meant we…read morecould choose from the many different areas of the restaurant. I like the interiors - it feels authentically French art-deco, but isn't overdone. We had brithday cake waiting for us at home so we decided to have two courses. To start I had Prawn Gratinée. There was lots of garlicy tomato sauce with the large prawns. It was alright. I found the prawns to be a bit bland and chewy as if they had been overcooked but not given enough time to take on the sauce's flavour. I also wish it came with some bread because the sauce was very tasty and needed mopping up with something. My husband had the Chicken Liver Pâté with brioche (this became my source of mopping bread). It was a generous portion nicely presented in a little preserve jar. He seemed very happy with it and I enjoyed the bit I tasted. For the main course my husband had the Lamb Shank special. Succulent and fell of the bone. It was sat on a bed of mashed potatoes which I think is one of the best accompaniments for such a meat. I was really in the mood for seafood so I ordered the Seabass. Two large fillets arrived with a sweet beurre blanc sauce. I think it is a main that definitely needs sides so ordered some beans and fries. They were what you'd expect them to be. It's a restaurant that's been in the centre of town for years and years. I wish I'd gone sooner and I'll definitely go back some time.

Overall an appalling dinner experience. Chose this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion with…read morea few kids and elderly. Only to find STAPLE PINS in my mouth as I take a bite of the naan that we ordered. Needless to say we feel really lucky to have not ended up in A&E, especially with kids, infants and elderly. To avoid any scene on the table, I reach out to the reception desk to speak with the manager or person in charge with the piece of metal in my hand. A man appeared after a few minutes wait to literally jump to take those pins from my hand before even letting me speak, not knowing I have taken pictures. And now as I request to speak with the manager, it was a joke to see the commotion in the back trying to figure out who will or should role play a manager to deal with the situation. As a guy turns up claiming to be the Manager, the least I expected was an apology first to start the conversation, but of course not. Instead, without even letting me speak, he tries to offer me a 'smallish cake with a candle' as a compensation, just because we were celebrating an occasion that he had no clue about. I literally had to ask him to shut up! and chose not to speak any further. We ended up spending over £300 for an awful experience that literally left me frustrated and worried, thinking what if the kids, elderly or even anyone else around swallowed that sharp staple pin....yet no apology was offered. For some reason as I write this review, it upsets me even more bring back that whole experience in my mind. This has now been formally reported to FHRS at the St Albans District Council for further investigation.

I've just been to this restaurant tonight and it was fantastic. The menu is suited to a high end…read morerestaurant in London and the food itself was perfectly cooked and tasted superb. It says on the website that its style is French-Asian, the food has a very delicate Indian flavour and is French in style. An absolute must for anyone looking for a meal in St Albans. It's a bit pricey, cost us £70 for 2 courses and just one glass of wine for hubby. I'd rather save up and go less often than go somewhere less interesting. I will definitely be back!
