Côte - St Martin's Lane

The usual high standard of service and quality of food. No wonder every table appeared to be occupied - people know they can rely on Cote.

Great location and this wasn't my first time dining here. Service was a little slow and one part of our order was forgotten, though generally reliable. Extremely busy at pre-theatre time

An enjoyable meal. Good ambience. The food and wine were excellent. Sorry we didn't have time for a dessert! The staff were friendly and efficient.

Perfect pre dinner meal, great atmosphere. lots of other venues are available too mostly right next to the theatres. food was tasty,fresh,hot and served quickly, great prices too.

Great service with an attentive waiter. Busy and lively atmosphere. Very convienent for theatre's. Quick service with out being rushed. Will use again in the future.

Very good food, service and atmosphere. Twenty five words is far too many and up until today I have refused to write a review! Far too many all you need to know is Good or Bad!!! Unless this is changed I will not be filling in any further requests.

Good food, good service, convenient to theater district but SUPER busy for dinner on matinee days because of post- and pre- crowds. Would go again.

A lovely meal with great service. An ideal environment for pre theatre dining or indeed at any time. Never had a bad meal. Staff very friendly.

As usual an excellent experience at restaurant. Staff work incredibly hard at this busy venue (pre theatre). Food and drink delivered efficiently but without diners feeling rushed. Essential booking at busy times. Food very good too

Good food as usual but cramped tables and very noisy. Didn't feel as relaxed as other branches we have been in. Background music unnecessary, especially as barely audible apart from bass line!

Everything up to the usual high standard. Extremely good value for money (set, pre-theatre meal). Only problem: the pea soup could have been hotter (we should have sent it back).

Good service and delicious food. We ate from the pre-theatre menu which had a good selection to choose from and it arrived quickly. Service was attentive and polite.

Excellent service as usual. Superb staff and service. Courteous and attentive at all times. Ashwan, the manager, is obviously very respected by his staff and his enthusiasm is contagious.

very good service, and delicious food,a big thank you cote we will be back for more hopefully very soon, well done at cote ST MARTINS LANE

Good food , set menu has wide choice . Very busy restaurant you need to book as they were full on Wednesday lunch time .

This branch of Cote provides excellent food and value, and always provides great service. We will go back and enjoy when we visit London again.

Good speedy service as usual. Lovely food and good wine, all for a very reasonable price. I had duck terrine and sea bass and my friend had the most delicious soupe au poisson followed by roast duck

This restaurant always has an excellent ambience and a buzz about it; packed as usual with pre theatre diners. Good value meals and excellent service.

Service slow and chaotic. Waited 20 minutes for coffee, and when we asked for the Bill waited another 20 minutes. Otherwise food excellent as usual.

Love using this venue - always great food , good atmosphere and very friendly service . We can't fault it for value for money given the central location

Cote has a good menu which seems to have something to please most of the people most of the time. Ideally situated for the theatres and Coliseum in St Martin's Lane it can be relied on for efficient service and good food.

restaurant very good and waiter friendly and attentive. Resent being told to provide minimum of 25 words for review - need to change this quandoo.

Another great restaurant meal with excellent food and service. I keep coming back time and time again because the set menu is so good. I would recomend this place to anyone.

Restaurant in good location for theatres and London n9ght life. Good food and overall nice experience staff friendly and attentive would go back again and can recommend to others.

We went yesterday to this restaurant after we reserved with Wyandot. The starters wete ok, the mains were excellent and so was the service. The restaurant has a live atmosphere

tTable service Staff unfriendly and slow to respond- they seemed to forget we were customers- one even seemed to get annoyed when we made a request. Also frisée salad cold - no apology- service POOR- arrogant male in particular with beard- also staff walked up and down with no eye contact i.e. Not looking around- and yet service included! Not good POOR.

We had great food, good service and it was reasonably priced - thank you. Usual Cote standard - was a first visit for our nephew from Canada!

The restaurant was busy with early evening customers. Our food was well prepared, the service was friendly but not over attentive, the fixed price menu choices were good and excellent value for central London.

Excellent staff, helpful and very friendly. Menu full of choice and very tasty. Excellent value for money on the lunchtime special, would certainly recommend booking.

Yummy food perfect service. And what would we do without all these wonderful EU staff that bring such quality and character to our London restaurants?

The service and staff were excellent it made our day out fantastic 😊 Cannot wait to go back I use the Covent Garden and the one in Blackheath and I have had excellent service in all of them I have recommended a lot of my friends and their agree with me keep it up Cotes

quickly seated at a busy time-food was very nice(pate starter,duck and pork mains)good selection of wines,we chose the Bordeaux,which was excellent. The service was very good,full marks to our waitress(Sylvia)

Good value for money especially with the free bottle of wine. Wouldn't have the beetroot salad again though. Under-cooked and bland. The fish pie was ok but the sauce was thin

I booked the wrong time for our dinner but the manager was super kind and sorted a table for us straight away. Our two waiters were both lovely guys. Great food and great service. Very happy!

Côte - excellent value, high-quality French food (superb steaks; amazing tarte au citron). Service was slow. The restaurant was incredibly busy; so noisy/unrestful. Too popular!

Great breakfast brunch! However, we were disappointed that we were not able to order from the lunch menu - it was not clear lunch was not served till noon.

Excellent meal and very good service. The restaurant was full which for an early lunch was surprising, the waiting staff kept on top of everything with a smile.

Great meal here, as ever. Staff always friendly even though the place is always mobbed. Decent value and my duck confit was scrumptious. My husband had the baked camembert, which came with a generous helping of fresh crusty bread for dipping, and was pronounced very tasty.

Great menu great staff although could be a bit quicker did have to keep asking for things ordered etc... The manageress was very helpful and apologetic.. Overall everyone was lovely and we had a great Birthday lunch.

Service was fast and polite despite the restaurant being very busy. If anything, service was too fast as our mains arrived before we had finished our fougasse!

Food, as normal in Cote, was good quality and good value on a pre-theatre menu. Long wait for starter plates to be cleared after finishing them. Table was downstairs and I would not want to sit there again as it is too cramped and somewhat noisy. Ask for a table upstairs.

The food was delicious and good value but service was rather slow. We were left sitting without drinks or water for a while, although I appreciate it was a very busy time - 5.45. The bill wasnt delivered very promptly either, luckily we werent in a hurry. Overall the restaurant was extremely noisy which can be difficult for older people, both service noise and general conversation. I'll try asking for a quiet table against the wall next time but may not make any difference.

Good value for money. The service good and friendly with a vibrant atmosphere. Only downside my chair kept being knocked but of an unfortunate position

Restaurant very busy but staff coped with our order well. Food usual good standard. Our table very near to the door and queue quite intrusive.

We really like this restaurant. The food is good and the service friendly. Whenever we are going to theatre, we usually go there and have never been disappointed.

Excellent value for money on the pre theatre set menu,good choice of dishes and pleasant staff.The position is ideal for dinner before going to the ENO

Restaurant was busy with pre theatre set meals, but did not give any attention to Ala Carle order. Steak was hard as rock....sigh! Warm beat salad was left at counter for 3 minutes before it was served to us although we sat next to the counter.

Nice food though some of dishes could have been better, nice window seat, food criticism included underseasoned chicken, roast pork crackling was not crispy but soft so not nice to eat and was left which is a shame as that is the treat of ordering roast pork, also icecream in chocolate sauce dessert only came as single scoop which seemed stingy for £4.95 price so more sauce than ice cream! My creme brulee however was perfect and best one I've had to date. Service after our main courses were cleared was slow-we seemed to have been forgotten and had to ask twice for dessert menu and left lot later than planed with so much waiting around. Noone came to deal with bill and my friend didn't like to leave cash unattended but didn't want another long wait so had to go find someone to give it to. I had a nice evening there but some aspects could have been better.

We enjoyed the food, and were well served. However we found the noise level in the restaurant very stressful. It was difficult to converse and feel relaxed.

No note had been taken of the request for a table with banquet/bench which I need as I have great difficulty getting out of chairs as am disabled, as I had said in my booking request. So had to wait for a table to become available, and we were pushed for time as we were going to the theatre. The table eventually found was next to the bar, where we had, first of all French Fries spilt on us by passing waiters, and then beer.
