Côte - St Martin's Lane

Enjoy our Friday dining out dinner - friendly staffs, delicious food, excellent service. Highly recommended.

Food was really good and consistent with othet Cote Braseries we have visited. Service fast. Definitely need to book after 5pm as this is a very busy restaurant.

Brilliant from start to finish. Lovely cocktails, nice starter, beautiful main course topped off with a super desert. Add together the great service, who brought complimentary cocktails and a complimentary desert to my partner, whose birthday it was, made it a wonderful occasion. Thank you St Martin's Lane. Best regards Ian

Very pleasant evening. The French Onion Soup is always a winner!

The food was, as always, well prepared, well presented and very tasty. The Bordeaux was a bit thin but otherwise quite good. The music was, as is the custom, too loud but the general ambience the friendly staff and the good value of the menu more than overcomes that irritant. If the restaurant is ever refurbished I would ask that the noisy wooden floors be replaced with some sound abosorbant material.

Lovely atmosphere, great staff. The food came far too quickly, it felt hurried. I asked for a delay between starter and mains but the food arrived within 5 minutes. When I complained about this the waiter was extremely apologetic and offered us complimentary coffee and pudding. Excellent response and customer service!

We were a party of 9 people and we have been to this branch of Côte several times before. The service and food have always been excellent, and this was no exception. It is very good value for money and a good atmosphere. Thank you to all the staff who made our lunch such an enjoyable experience.

As usual, a very good experience at Côte. The menus cater for all tastes and most dietary needs, the food is nicely-prepared and presented, the wines are decently-priced, and the service is friendly and professional in a buzzy ambience. We were with discriminating friends, and everyone was happy. Excellent value.

Great food good service but very noisy pre theatre v busy .. calmer at 7.30.

Lovely meal and good service from friendly attentive staff but it was so noisy in the restaurant that I could hardly hear anything my lunch guest had to say. The noise levels would sadly put me off coming back again.

Excellent range of food and good value for money served by pleasant and friendly staff in a great location. Would recommend making a reservation to avoid disappointment.

drinks came after the meal. It was very busy but the service was slow - unfortunately not as good as the cote near drury Lane .

Another fantastic evening at Cote St Martins Lane with the warmest of welcomes, a lovely buzzy atmosphere and warm friendly and ultra efficient staff. Food was just superb and wine too! Wish we could eat here every day. Thanks St Martins Lane team!

Food and servers were lovely but the restaurant downstairs area was crowded making it difficult for the servers to cope, hence why some mistakes were made that otherwise would not have

Not quite up to the normal high standard. Calamari were tasteless and fries were hard Very hot in restaurant and air con not on

Lively and bustling restaurant with young and attentive staff. A little noisy at peak periods but to be expected. Good choice before theatre/opera attendance.

The staff makes many efforts to make our presence more pleasant!!. I say they do it very good!.. And customers are happy about that

Lovely food and friendly service, in a great location. I would definitely recommend Cote to my friends, as my dining experience there has always been pleasurable.

Excellent and delicious as always. Our "Go To" of choice. Ages in group from 27 to 64...Cote suits everyone.

Great as always, never had a bad meal at Côte which ever one we’ve been to.

Great service despite the usual Pre theatre crowds. The standard of food preparation and innovative french menus never falls. Our go-to restaurant chain for a great night out

No waiting, great atmosphere and good food. Enjoyed by all. We come to Cote regularly. Very reliable and always come away happy. Can't ask for much more. Tony

Excellent meal disappointed with peach crumble it was too stodgy & I didn’t eat it

Another superb meal! Cannot fault the ambiance, service or food (love the food)! Consistently good every time!

We always use one of the Cote restaurants pre theatre and were very happy with our service this evening. A very busy restaurant but we did not feel rushed and our waitress was attentive and very polite.

We all had good food and the service was, as usual, very friendly and helpful, without being intrusive. My guests and I all agreed that it was a really enjoyable experience.

Such friendly helpful staff who always serve us well and efficiently for pre-theatre meal. Wide choice of food and drink with excellent vegetarian choices. Highly recommended.

At first, The team could not find our booking which include complimentary drinks. The service team then stated you can only have the complimentary drinks if you chose from the ala cartel menu. 4 bottles of wine and six meals later. The service team still made an issue of cocktails and grudgingly gave the drinks

A very nice meal just before the theatre, the staff were exceptionally nice and would go again.All cotes I have been to have been of the same standard.

Fast service. Food just ok this time (2nd time here in 1 year), seafood linguine pasta dish distinctly lacking some flavour I thought, a bit bland. Mentioned to our waiter, but unconvinced he took note. French onion soup starter was also just ok, nothing to get excited about. Essential to book in advance, theatre lovers!

Very nice restaurant, with typical french dishes. Very friendly waiters.

Very enjoyable. Pre-booked tasble in the window as normal. Turned up a few minutes late but no problem. Oh yes, nearly forgot, the food was great as usual.

Excellent service and great food, 3 menus to choose from, all looked delicious. We were a party of 5 and all said how much we enjoyed the meal. Only downside was the toilets were down some steep stairs and one of our party has severe walking difficulties and found these difficult as other people were pushing past - there was a seating area downstairs too.

Excellent experience as always. Lively atmosphere and a good choice of set menu at very reasonable prices and quick, efficient, friendly service. Look forward to returning soon.

Bright and cheerful welcome and service which continued through the meal, even when the restaurant was full and staff very busy, with the pre theatre rush. Layout and tabling a good mix for different size groups. Wine and food were brought when appropriate without delay or undue haste. Food and preparation was all good quality, although the lardons had too much vinaigrette for my taste. Altogether a good experience .

Very nice evening, great food and very good service - recommended

This is a buzzing restaurant which is always friendly, quick delivery of orders and very attentive. Menu is changed regularly and is always tasty with great selection.

Excellent as always - good food, pleasant friendly staff, good service, nice atmosphere and reasonable prices - couldn’t ask for more.

Cote is always reliable and the food is good. The service is good although not always exceptional for the added charge. I elected to take up the offer of a free cocktail but due to misleading information from the first waitress we ended up not qualifying. So I will take future offers with a 'pinch of salt'.

Excellent Service, very attentive and quick. Excellent Meal Nice atmosphere but noisy.

Service from our waitress was friendly and considerate. My tuna nicoise was not up to usual standard: it was small, arrived without new potatoes in it and I'd asked for the tuna to be cooked medium but it was rare. I asked for it to be cooked a bit more and it came back medium rare. The restaurant was very busy but unless I'm offered a discount because of that the quality of the food should be the same as always. Disappointed.

Good food and good value for money. Very popular so is a bit noisy. Service quick and efficient. Recommended for pre-theatre meals both matinee and evening.

Great steak frites! A Very busy location so don’t forget to book. Always good service and value from cote and very convenient for the west end

An excellent meal, all my group enjoyed it very much. Only downside to look at is the difficulty in acquiring an aperitif. No Aperol or Campari available for my wife. Once this disappointment had passed everything went smoothly & all the dishes we had were excellent.

Fantastic food, a separate menu for vegans, which made the vegan in our party happy, friendly service, elegant surroundings, reasonable prices. A good booking system and no problem when we turned up with an extra person. My only problem was that it's one of countless restaurants in the capital with no carpet or anything to mute the sound of a large number of people talking in a crowded space. This means, people with hearing difficulties and even those who hear ok but (like me) are well past retirement age, have trouble hearing the waiting staff or our own family at the table. Not relaxing to have to shout and ask everyone to repeat things.

Arrived for the booking @ 8. Ordered 4 bottled beers, they were warm, mentioned it to the waitress, who said they had been busy. Wasn’t apologetic, but did get us an ice bucket to cool them off. We should of been pre-warned, not served the bottles and hope we don’t notice it !

Good value and reasonable, a bit noisy and long wait for service though. Cote Soho better

Good service, lovely food and great atmosphere. Worth booking a table as can get busy pre and post theatre!

Excellent food as ever, and very attentive service, with a good sense of humour. A couple of glasses of first-class merlot added to the enjoyment. Highly recommended.

Good food at a reasonable price. What made it was the staff. Really friendly and efficient and clearly working well together as a team. A great experience.
