Côte - St Martin's Lane

Always good. Never been to St Martins lane but equally good. No hesitation ever to go there. Not too keen on the tuna starter but it was ok. Thanks again for a lovely evening with good staff.

Overall it was very nice. It was Good food and a great location. Definitely advise booking on the weekend as it can get quite busy.

My previous visit the service and food was very very good. This time the steak was overcooked - no apology. I had to ask for water every time we needed it. I asked for extra milk for coffee and was given the normal amount. Staff talked to each other and rarely looked over when we needed them in spite of the restaurant being half full. The last time it was almost full and the waitress was totally attentive.

Service was good and very quick which is ideal for a pre theatre meal. The set menu was extremely good value. Booking at this venue pre theatre is a must

Lovely location and restaurant easy to find and very close to transportation. Staff were helpful, accommodating and friendly. Definitely one of my favourite Cote restaurants. The food was delicious and well presented.

Food and service were very good, however the experience was spoiled by a noisy and disruptive table next to us which staff seemed unwilling to address.

Starter was dry. Sea Bream was lovely and as usual creme caramel was Devine. Muscadet wine very pleasant. Staff very nice and efficient. Cost was fair

As usual, really good food at exceptional value. The starters were all great and the steaks superb. The risotto was ok but not the best I have had. Desserts, as usual, excellent. Friendly service.

Reliably good food with polite and efficient service - something for everyone on the menu, even the fussy. Busy enough on a Friday night but not packed to rafters and we did not feel hurried on after finishing our meals.

Excellent service. Friendly staff. We dined from the pre theatre menu which was excellent value. Delicious food. Perfect for a pre theatre meal. Would definitely go again.

Pre show fixed price menu was really tasty and great value. The restaurant was very busy but we were served efficiently and with a friendly manner by all staff, who should be commended for dealing with a full restaurant so professionally whilst maintaining their humour, many thanks.

Lovely menu & excellent service. Really enjoyed the omelet, freshly prepared. Four of us had an excellent meal from the set menu at reasonable cost

Very reliable chain with good food and a pleasant buzzy atmosphere, reasonably quick service and no pressure to leave asap. Not the most exciting lunch but always enjoyable.

3 courses for £13.95. Choice was amazing and quality was superb. Portion size was good although we did have two additional vegetable dishes at £2.95 each. Good service and a great location. Definitely recommend Cote and I will be using them again.

Very nice meal and good service. We will definitely visit again. If there's any criticism, it would be that there could be more space between tables.

Great value pre-theatre menu, great service, convenient location for many theatres (we were going to the Opera House - about 5 min walk), wouldn't hesitate to recommend !

Friendly and welcoming reception. Very busy restaurant and as usual all the staff were very at tentative and smiling. Food was brilliant , my wife and I choose different dishes each time we visit Cotes and have never been disappointed. House red was just fine and will visit this location again++

Excellent choice of food from the a la carte menu which was delicious and good service even though the restaurant was packed. Would definitely recommend a visit.

Great friendly service as always in this branch, it's always busy pre theatre but always service with a smile June menu nice recommend the seabass

Very attentive service and excellent food. Will come again and try other locations. Coped well with complicated dietary requirements. Good setting and atmosphere. Very happy

Excellent food and service. And a free Kir Royal if you're going to Book of Mormon. Really doesn't get much better than this in central London.

Excellent pre-theatre meal. Place was incredibly busy but service was swift, efficient and friendly. Steak frites was delicious. Amazing that it's so reasonable and good right in the heart of theatre,and.

We booked a lunchtime table for four. Always previously had a good experience at various Cote's around the country. Unfortunately today wasn't one of them. 3 of us ordered the steak frites - all 3 were tough as old boots. It gives me little confidence in ordering steak there on future occasions. My wife, who had the sea bream, was delighted with hers though. Staff were quick and polite as always. Thank you.

service very slow , only 3 out of 4 starters arrived ...... not as good as usual . it was the end of the evening but it should still be better than this .

The food was tasty and comforting, atmosphere was good. Just would have been nice if there wasn't a mouse running round our feet all evening.

Very busy so felt neglected at times. Also poor located table meant those waiting for a table were hovering over us. Other than that, food excellent as always and staff friendly.

Very busy pre theatre crowd, therefore not much room between tables. Food excellent. Had the crab starter, then the chicken, ordered with an additional side of fries. Husband had asparagus soup, with side order of bread, followed by the omelette which he said was the best he had eaten for a while. Complimentary water. Staff very professional, 12.5% service charge added to the bill, but very obvious it was there. Would eat there again. Very close to theatre land.

Excellent, food, great value for money and very pleasant and speedy service. I am rarely disappointed in Cote and would happily recommend this branch and will return.

Excellent service and delicious food as always with good ambience and attentive staff This is Our favourite dining experience when going to a show especially

We had an excellent meal at Cote in St,Martins Lane with exceptional service. The food was very good and certainly value for money. We will definitely go again when we are in the area

I used Cote restaurants on a regular basis, they are excellent. The staff and the service is first class and the food they provide is excellent.

Excellent service and good food. The only bad experience was the salad looked a little wilted, but it was hot! I have eaten here before and would do so again.

Very pleasant waitress and a quiet table by the window.Not feeling cramped as you can on other tables. Food very good and well presented. Perhaps one fillet of sea bass made the portion a little small.

The service was great, staff were friendly and helpful. The food was lovely and served in good time. The pre theatre menu was very reasonably priced and excellent value

The pre-theatre menu was great value, offering two or three courses for a fixed price. The range of options was good and service was fast, efficient and friendly.

Excellent service by friendly staff and good food at a reasonable Cost. for central London . We were going to the theatre and so the restaurant were very efficient

Nice staff but extremely noisy. Good value. Starter disappointing but risotto lovely. Possibly hit the busiest time of day around 5.30pm foe pre theatre dining.

Went fit the pre theatre set menu. Good value. I like cote similar prices to pizza express but much nicer. Love the steak and frites and chocolate mousse. Also like the fact that all the service charge hoes to the staff.

Lovely atmosphere, we had the pre theatre set dinner which was lovely and really good value.the service was good. Our table looked out onto the street and the windows were open so it was nice and cool.

Lovely food and great speedy service so we could get to the theatre on time. The staff were very friendly and flexible with the children's options

Great service and choice of food with the daily specials added. Restaurant had a ambient vibe which all contributed into making the visit an enjoyable experience.

Good and efficient staff. Only downside was the table position, next to the stairway to the basement and toilets. Otherwise, nice menu and efficient service. Good vale pre-theatre menu

The staff are friendly and efficient and the service is very good. The food arrives quickly and is delicious with a good selection, and on warm plates which to me is essential. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will certainly be returning. The only reason that I gave a 5 instead of a 6 was because the tables are too close together.

The seabass was good but uninspiring. A bit dry, it should be accompanied with half a lemon and vegetables, offering a variety of options and not just puree (rice often comes with fish). Suggest a glass of white whine with it for extra £3

Busy, a bit touristy...good service, buzzy... I've been in a few Cotes, this one was fine but I've eaten better food. Would I go here again? Probably...but I wouldn't rush back. It was all okay with service good

Exceptional food, great location and attentive staff. The calamari was cooked so well it melted in the mouth and the duck and pork belly dishes were full of flavour. Presented with flair too. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely meal with friends - all of us had the set 3 course lunch which was such good value. Looking forward to our next visit.

We usually have a fabulous experience at Cote but yesterday was no where near as good. The food was excellent but the service was poor. We were downstairs where there are no windows and there is no atmosphere. The service was slow; a beer we had ordered on arrival only arrived when we prompted the waiter towards the end of the meal and the veg arrived when we had virtually finished our meal. The Manager did apologise and reduced the bill but I am afraid to say the overall experience was not what we have enjoyed at this restaurant in the past.

We ate the pre theatre menu. The food was delicious and great sized main meals for the price although my chocolate pot dessert could have been a little bigger! Lovely staff and lovely environment. Would eat here again.

A really lovely meal but we were in the very hot side of the restaurant as the A.C. only covers one side Way too hot in there
