Perfect for a pre-theatre meal. Very busy but table was ready, service was excellent and food good; really good value for money for a restaurant in central London. Would definitely use again.
Normally highly rated. This time lamb unavailable, soup had to be reheated, chicken special dry tasteless & cost refunded by courteous staff who also offered a replacement dish.
Fabulous food, good choice and excellent service. Would definitely come again and would recommend this restaurant to anyone. 10 out of 10! Well worth a visit.
Brill meal quick efficient service. Straight from amazing performance at the Coliseum. Reasonably priced meal and wine completed a great day from Liverpool. Thank you
Nice welcome, good service, good busy atmosphere, food good without being great. Good value for money. Would definitely visit this restaurant again and recommend to friends.
Very easy to make a reservation online. Good food and service despite being a very busy Saturday evening. Used Chichester, Salisbury and West End all have the same high standard.
Really delicious breakfast at Cote, Covent Garden. The staff couldn't have been more helpful in making a small substitution for one of the items. As always, Cote excels!
Very good waiter. Very convenient for Duke of York's theatre which is virtually opposite. Always enjoy the steak frites. Shame no aperol available from the bar.
Service was good. I was seated and my order taken in a fair amount of time. Food and drinks came promptly, one slight point is that sometimes service could be a bit too quick as my plate was almost taken away before I had finished. I do want to go back though.
Had a great evening. The pre-theatre menu has great value and the food, wine and service were amazing. I would go to this restaurant again
Good value with two courses and a free bottle of wine. Enjoyed the food and will visit again. We found it very hot but someone kindly opened the door for us and let some fresh air in.
Nice menu selection for the pre theatre menu. Reasonable size portions and food tasted great. Deserts were lovely and good value. No complaints here and we will be returning.
The restaurant was as busy (and therefore noisy!) as usual and good value. A couple of dishes were unavailable but had substitutes, and, overall, we had a very good meal.
good food and service at and value for money. Set Menu selected - plenty of choice. Restaurant was busy but all were well looked after
Good food, charming service, consistently high quality and excellent value. We couldn't wish for more. It's always a pleasure and there so many convenient Cote branches throughout London.
Great atmosphere and good service. The meal was not rushed which allowed us to have a relaxed evening. The food was rated highly by all members of our party.
Very pleasant staff, and the food was well cooked, however I would of rated the experience as a 5 but a side dish was delivered after we had completed our meal.
As ever, the Cote chain is reliable. The St Martin's Lane branch is no exception with quality food served in a timely manner for theatre goers. The pre-theatre is good value with my only bugbear being the 12.5% service charge being over the top! Overall, would recommend this branch for ambience in addition to food.
helpful and jolly staff nothing too much trouble-had a chicken breast which was a bit tough. We all enjoyed eveyrthing else about our visit was very good.
Didn't enjoy this meal as much as usual. My Eggs Florentine looked and tasted as though they had been cooked some time ago. My companion's ribeye steak was not very nice. Have had much better meals at Cote. Service excellent as always
Slight mix up with food but good quality overall. Friendly staff but not all able to explain the menu nor describe which dish was which on arrival. Nice location. Busy. Good set menu. Tasty food at reasonable prices.
the usual reliable food. but it was very busy tonight and the service was a bit hit and miss although the staff were, as always, charming.
Packed, but Service was absolutely on the mark. Not a second too slow, not a second too fast, with a smile. Food was great too!
Service prompt and friendly. Food well presented and tasty. Nothing else to say. All good. Would return. It was very busy. Would suggest customers book.
Great attentive service and varied quality food. Ideal for a pre theatre meal. Reasonable price too. More than adequate choice for Coeliacs with a dedicated menu.
Great service but one or two issues with the food. Lamb served with blue cheese was a strange, unpalatable combination. Meagre portions of some dishes - not as other Cote branches. Steak Tartare was tiny unseasoned and not traditionally made. Scallops tiny, barely cooked and swimming in oil. The service made up for the shortfalls in the Chef's abilities and we will be back. Thanks to Aurora our waitress for holding it all together.
Excellent location. Welcoming and professional staff. Good choice of food. The wine list is sensible and well priced. The fixed price menu representsexcellent value for money.
Very pleasant restaurant and excellent food although a bit noisy in the evening! H I will definitely go back ! A bientot tout le monde!
Pre-theatre meal very good value as always, tasty, well presented and quick service. The slight disappointment was their renowned crème caramel desert which we always have. It is now smaller and served without any cream which they used to do. I would willing pay an extra 50p on the set menu price for it to be as it used to be, always the highlight of our many meals there.
Consistently good as always. Ideal for pre theatre. Fast efficient service, good priced menu and convenient for many venues. Expect Cote St.Martins Lane to be noisy though and you must book ahead.
Despite being an extremely busy time for the restaurant, the staff were friendly & efficient and the food was the usual good standard for Cote Brasserie.
A GREAT PLACE TO EAT VERY GOOD FOOD and drink FOR THE PRICE Very NICE ambience very clean toilets the staff are very well trained and helpful
Lovely meal at lunchtime in buzzy surroundings. Attentive and efficient staff. Would recommend for anyone visiting Covent Garden or surreounding theatres. Booking recommended, it's always been very busy whenever we have visited.
Despite the restaurant being very busy I was treated in a friendly,personal yet professional way. Food was great & good value. Excellent wine recommendation much appreciated
Food lovely. Service a little slower than usual but to be fair it was the busiest I've ever seen it! Returning soon after a theatre trip.
Great location, attentive staff, good food. Creme caramel is the best! My friend and I had a great time catching up in the relaxed and buzzy atmosphere.
Great service, comfortable seats and lovely food. Couldn't be any better, and such a central location for London. Good value for money too. Will come again.
Good food and service ! What more can one ask ? Soup excellent and the haddock par entire very tasty. But that is why we always come back to Cote for more.
Friendly, also very busy but this was what made it buzzy, food and service good and really quick which helped as needed to get away for a show
We have been to this restauarant many times, but were disappointed to wait at our table for over 20 minutes before we were even offered water. Not good enough!
the food excellent and the server was as well. She had a great personality and was very attentive. Love this location on of the best cote
I regularly eat at Cote in different restaurants. This is a very busy restaurant with pre theatre dining but there didn't appear to be enough staff. The food was mediocre which is unusual for Cote as I normally enjoy the food.
Lovely meal and great value for money - good service and lovely atmostphere. Great choice for our family meal in London - thank you - we will be back
Very welcoming staff, excellent service and lovely food. Cannot fault it in any way. I would definitely visit again and highly recommend it. Loved the crumble!
Food was very good. Our waitress was very helpful - sorting out what I could eat off the menu (I can't eat garlic ) The restaurant was rather too noisy for our preference
Party of three for dinner before a show. Booking was easy, reception on arrival was very efficient and friendly, seating, surrounding and atmosphere all good. Waitress was friendly and professional. Three course meal was excellent for all three meals. Thoroughly recommend Cote.
Refunded 2x £12.50 2 course Set menus as introductory Cote Rewards gift as alternative to free bottle of wine because teetotal. How kind is that! Food was top quality as always.
A great meal in a restaurant with a good ambience. Despite being full the service was very good and the waitress looked after our every need.
We are so grateful to the waiter who picked up the fact that five of us were celebrating our 70 birthdays and offered us a glass of prosecco with kir on the house, which was most welcome. The service was also excellent.
Very lovely staff just like every Cote, they can't do enough for you. Lovely location as well, will definitely be returning next time we are in London.
