Overall very pleasant meal but there was no tuna steak for a nicoise which was disappointing and the restaurant was extremely busy with tightly packed tables. Otherwise food was lovely and service very nice.

There are no facilities for disabled. Toilets are downstairs,down a long steep stairway. Floor in the restaurant was grubby. Food could have been hotter, but ice cream on dessert was melted before we got it. Service and attitude of staff could not be faulted and it was a very busy lunchtime.

Everything about our meal at Cote, Covent Garden, was just fine. We enjoyed courses selected from the set menu although my cod croquettes might have benefitted from more fish flavour to complement the potato content. The wine was very good and the service was excellent. This continues to be our favourite branch of Cote.

Very good menu choices, menu changes regularly, excellent value prix fixe pre theatre menu. Pleasant service, a bit under pressure at peak periods, but always with a smile. First choice for an evening out!

Excellent pre-theatre menu at reasonable price. Manager upgraded our table. Was a special time with friends from States hadn't seen in ages so good to have larger table in quieter corner of restaurant. They appreciated choice of menu. Good quality food, especially crab and avocado starter. Very relaxed atmosphere and helpful staff.

Food was good, we had shared the calamari for starters. For mains we had the pork belly, 7oz fillet, duck breast and lamb and for dessert we had tart du pommes, lemon tart and ice cream with chocolate sauce. All washed down with nice white wine. Quality was good, made to our request and everyone really enjoyed dinner.

We had a pre- theatre 3 course meal for £14 or so. The quality and food content was excellent for the price. A bottle of wine cost a reasonable £17.50 (for London). The ambience was good, the staff were attentive. On the whole, a pleasant experience

Pleased I booked in advance as it was very busy. Our table was ready for us and we were given a lovely complimentary glass of Kir Royale. The staff were pleasant and service was quick. We had one meal from the pre-theatre deal menu and one a la carte. Both meals were delicious. A good experience.

Great food as always! Steak frites and peach crumble were amazing! It was a little loud and difficult to hear the person across the table from me. The tables were also a bit too close together so I had trouble squeezing between them and I'm quite a small(ish) person!

Food quality was as you would expect from Cote. The service was a mixed bag very good for the first hour then very bad for the last hour. We did point out the failings to the Management team who were very apologetic. We do accept that at busy times these things happen overall a positive experience we will book again.

Reliably good fare, attentive service and decent value as you'd expect from Cote - we had the lunch pre theatre menu which offered plenty of choice - only complaints were the acoustics in this particular branch are awful (low ceilings and no soft furnishings to soak up any noise) and as it was packed it was very noisy indeed and not a relaxing lunch as a result - small comments on the food - my father's omelette was overcooked - not at all how it would be served in a french restaurant and the tomatoes in the tomato salad came straight out of the fridge - i never understand way restaurants do this as they should be served at room temperature to get the best flavour they also seem to serve cheese straight from the fridge too which is also disappointing...overall though not a bad experience - i will return to Cote, but would not return to this branch in view of the noise levels...

Very good pre-theatre meal from the set menu. Service was also excellent for the first part but seemed to tail-off after our main course. Had to wait ages for dessert and to get our bill. It won't deter us from eating there again however. Hopefully it was just an unfortunate blip. I generally recommend this restaurant for the quality of the food.
