Restaurant in the heart of theatreland. Despite being extremely busy the staff were efficient and friendly. Food is consistently good at Cote and never disappoints.

This is a convenient location. Plenty of choice and a good set menu. The creme caramel is the best ever. Reasonable prices. Gets busy so need to book.

After visiting Cote for a number of years and recently becoming Gluten intolerant. I was very disappointed with the limited number of options and the waitresses limited knowledge of what I could and could not eat. We spent more time waiting to find out what I could and couldn't eat.

Love Côte the lunch menu is amazing value. Unfortunately today for the first time and many visits a couple of issues. There was potatoes in the Jerusalem artichokes. I mentioned it to the waitress and she denied they were potatoes!! Ive had it twice before and it was not the same. Also ordered green beans which arrived after dinner eaten. But as I said very unusual and it won't stop me returning. Great value, nice atmosphere and smart staff. Toilets are always clean and that in itself earns 5 stars.

We enjoyed our evening. We had a theatre offer of complimentary kir royales which was a lovely start to enjoyable meals from the pre-theatre menu. The restaurant was busy with a bustling atmosphere. It was also within close proximity to the Noel coward theatre which made for easier access for two of our party with mobility problems. Would recommend this restaurant.

I had requested a quiet table and we were sat right next to a birthday party of about 12 people. The white wine was also not cold enough. Service was very friendly

Good menu choice and helpful manager. Service from waiting staff can be a bit hit and miss and rather slow. Food (when it comes) is generally good.

As usual the food was excellent and the price very reasonable. The service was a little slow, but then we came into the restaurant just before an near empty one suddenly filled up with people to get a meal just before the theatres started, and the waitress apologised for the slight delay.

The set menu is always good value. The special offers are usually with the a la carte so it is still better value to have the set menu plus a glass of wine. Can be noisy as ceilings are low.

Hi , we all had the fixed price menu - 2 items for 12.99 or 3 for £14 ,. They were fine in and of themselves but not particularly filling .you need to order extra sides really to leave the table full

The pre 7pm fixed price menu is great value and the restaurant was packed with pre-theatre diners. Unfortunately we were seated in the basement and whilst service started off well, once the area vacated with the theatre goers leaving we became forgotten by the staff? Our waiter had signed off his shift as our deserts were brought and we saw no one for over half an hour. A disappointing end to what could have been a great experience. Good choices are available on the fixed price menu.
