We went out for a pre-theatre meal and received more than we could have asked for. It was our anniversary as well. We could not be happier with our experience. The service was outstanding. Our server was so kind and lovely. She always looked happy when out on the floor. The food was of a high standard. Oysters were fresh. Tableside steak tartare was a special treat. The wine was delicious. We were treated like royalty. We can't wait to go back again.

This is the second time I’ve visited this particular branch. The staff greeted us very warmly. The food was delicious. I always enjoy the steak frites. Staff were attentive and friendly throughout our meal. It is the perfect stop for a pre theatre meal. The Cote chain is one of my favourites.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An unforgettable dining experience at Clos Maggiore From start to finish, Clos Maggiore delivered an absolutely outstanding experience. The service was exceptional — attentive, professional and welcoming without ever feeling intrusive. The food was even better than we’d hoped, with every dish beautifully presented and full of flavour. The wine list was incredible, offering an amazing selection to complement the meal perfectly. It’s rare to find somewhere that gets every element so right, but Clos Maggiore genuinely does. The atmosphere, the service, the food and the wine all combined to make it a truly special and unforgettable evening. An absolute gem and somewhere I’d recommend without hesitation. We’ll definitely be back!
