Irresponsible, felt completely unsafe in the outdoor seating area so much so we left after 10mins of being there. They allowed people to smoke and congregate from different households right next to our table. So disappointed as I booked this for my birthday weeks before.

The worst restaurant experience in a long time. This was supposed to be when Esher was in tier 3. The restaurant was absolutely heaving-as was the garden. The table next to us had had least 15 people. No social distancing. We ate very poor food from a absolutely woeful menu, paid way over the odds and left. Cuvee is quickly establishing itself as a seedy drinking hole. Such a pity as it started so well. We weren’t the only table to leave and our waitress was almost in tears. Shame on you putting your staff at risk.

What a lovely restaurant! We had a cocktail each - both excellent. Food was delicious and they served us complimentary dessert wine with our cheese course. It is on the expensive side but food, service and ambience all great so I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

There has been a clear shift in the dining experience at Cuvee. This is no doubt down to the appointment of a vastly accomplished and experienced head of the helm (Vincent) and the subsequent appointment of an fantastic chef. The food was truly excellent and I will be back ASAP. Thanks all Ali

I love this place and return often. I love the transformation of the outside area with the covering so you can keep so warm and cosy under the heaters and with the blankets. Great DJ, music pretty loud so conversation was difficult but it's all part of the ambience.

Polite and friendly welcome. Temperature checked, track&trace in place. Covid compliant which made me feel safe. Staff offered a mask as I'd lost mine. Hand sanitiser as you walk in. Amazing garden, suburb food, cocktails and service. Staff are so friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. Reasonably priced too. Defiantly returning customer!
