Côte - Covent Garden

We were sat near a busy service area, which was a little noisy. A couple of the staff were a little surly, which gave a sense of being unwelcome. Overall though, considering it was a family of 9, our food was pretty much served at the same time, efficiently and everyone enjoyed their dishes.

Great food & drink, reasonably priced, unobtrusive but efficient service, lively atmosphere. Maitre d' was quite brusque but he didn't detract from a very enjoyable evening.

Really nice food and a leisurely lunch. Restaurant is right in the heart of town and represents very good value on the set menu options. Slightly spoilt by a noisy group seated near us.

I eat regularly at Cote as it’s always good tasty food at reasonable prices.

The restaurant is amazing. The food even better. The wine selection is really good and the staff was very professional and kind. The price is really fair compared to the overqualified food and wine! This is my second time and I will be back at the Leicester Côte Brasserie. Thank you!

visited on Saturday...restaurant was very busy, but the service was very good. the food arrived very quickly and was hot and tasty...very service will be back.

Excellent customer service and decent food and wine at a reasonable price.

Excellent service and great quality for value. Overall I had a wonderful dinner and that is why I keep coming to this restaurant as one of my favorite spots in London.

Lunch with a friend. Easy booking. Friendly. Good service. Good food. Covent Garden is a very competitive area and this restaurant competes well with similar brasseries.

Excellent service, the staff went above and beyond to make my mum's birthday lunch special,thank you so much!! Complimentary drinks on arrival and then a lovely cake and candle singing happy birthday,she was chuffed!! Will be back for sure

Absolutely love Cote - always great quality and it is just like being in Paris!

We had a lovely meal after the London Marathon on Sunday - food, service and staff were fantastic. They were very accommodating as I had to change tie time of my booking and added to the numbers even though they were very busy - thank you

Excellent dinner and great service for our big family, we will come back next time we are in London!

Very nice meal at a competitive price and choice of courses, served by very efficient and friendly staff.

This restaurant was a very good choice as a place to eat after a theatre matinee performance. Excellent table, excellent service and very good food, representing great value for money, and there was a lively atmosphere.

We visited this restaurant for the first time three days ago, it was suggested by a family member who informed us that the chain constantly provided excellent food. As we were going to the theatre tonight, we decided to return. The ribeye steak I had on the first visit, was excellent, one of the best I’ve had in years. Today I had the fish stew, the ingredients were fresh and it tasted excellent. I must also mention the french onion soup, which was good, though slightly too sweet for me, although my wife thought it was perfect. I would recommend this restaurant without hesitation.

Great venue for a pre-musical lunch for MaMa Mia. Lovely waitress the food was fine but overall a little expensive. There is a compulsory service charge, which bumps the price up but fine for our day out at the theatre.

The food was good quality with good choice on the set menu, very efficient service (which was ideal for us as it was a ‘Pre-show’ meal)

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here, food was cooked to perfection.

Lovely table service. soothing went wrong with mains course order, might have been my fault, but all was sorted, and I had super food, very shortly afterward, these things happen. My 2 other dining companions, plus me, (we meet regularly with you) love the foods ,service the the ability to talk without being rushed. The person who looked after us today, was wonderful.

It is always such a pleasure to return to Cote in Covent Garden. Our recent dining experience was superb. Though plenty of classic French fare is on offer, everything is presented with a fresh new take. The design concepts are impressive, the ingredient combinations enticing, and the flavors just delicious. As well, the waiters were smart, witty, interesting conversationalists, and wonderfully efficient. Always busy and bustling, the charming rooms permit a feeling of intimacy for two even amidst the buzz. Highly recommended for a great dinner out.

Could not fault the service or the meal. Our waiter was charming and very attentive and worked very hard to make it a very pleasant dinner. We will be back next week!

Thank you for a fabulous evening. We were well looked after and the food was great! You even threw in a couple of free bottles of fizz for my birthday. We will definitely be coming back again!

We both thought the food was delicious and authentically French, especially as the pre-Theatre menu was cheaper than other restaurants in the local area. The staff were charming and we had no trouble settling our bill in time for the ROH at 7.30.

Wonderful serving staff - thank you so much for making our visit so good.

I booked a table for 16 guests with the pre theatre menu in the private dining room for a 6pm meal. Everything was ready for us and we enjoyed a thoroughly good evening. The entire restaurant was busy and had a very pleasant atmosphere. We all thought it particularly good value, especially for the postcode and would happily recommend it.

Food was ok but we felt a bit rushed and when we commented on the wine being cooler the waitress said that it seemed ok to her

Our waitress was excellent, the food amazing. It’s like going back to France for an afternoon.🥂

Quick and friendly service. Tasty food and well presented . Convenient location for shopping in Covent Garden and meeting friends . Nice atmosphere and helpful efficient staff

Excellent very good and welcoming will recommend to everyone food was amazing lovely place and atmosphere was good was not rushed have been to Cote on many occasions

As usual very good service and great value food. A regular lunch haunt .

Great food, service and atmosphere! Highly recommended and great value for money !

The food from the premier menu was excellent. Tasty and good size portions. Attentive but not intrusive service and a good ambiance. A very pleasant experience.

The food was great, but I had booked a table near the windows and we were given a table in the central area of the restaurant. Next time maybe...

First time at Cote Brasserie and we were really impressed with the service, ambience and standard and choice of food. Will definitely be going to another one of your restaurants in a different location nearer to home.

The meal as always was very good, lovely combinations, great flavours and well presented. Also, being the first time we have been to this particular restaurant, we were glad we had prebooked as it was very busy. We were seated promptly at a table for two immediately outside of the toilet which was in constant use. The area where the stacking of dirty dishes from table clearance was behind us just a few feet away and the clattering of said dishes was extremely noisy, so the positioning of our table was really disappointing. Personally I do not think cramming just one more table for two in this very busy restaurant at the expense of a negative dining experience is justified. Because of this I’ve awarded only an average rating and I’m not sure I would return to this particular Côte restaurant.

Nice food, good and attentive service and reasonably prompt delivery of food so that we were not late for the ROH. Good value for money for the area.

Great evening. The food is amazing there. We will come back for sure.

The general problem about Cote is that it tends to be noisy. This one is not so bad as long as you're not in the main part. We were round the back a bit so it was fine. The food is very nice - service a little slow meant that we couldn't have a dessert - but we did manage coffee. There are nice things to choose from on the menus and the food is always good.

Every time we come to London we always book this restuarant ( first class as always )

The food was great and so was service. Could fault nothing.

Good value for money lunch with efficient and friendly service.

My friend and I had a fabulous lunch at Cote in Tavistock Street. The food and service were excellent with a great choice on the menu.

Had a great birthday meal welcoming ambience staff were really attentive. Food was absolutely delicious as was the wine.

Lovely atmosphere, cramped seating and the food took a long time considering it was the theatre menu. We ran to the theatre!

excellent service and food delicious. I've been to this restaurant several times and the levels have never dropped. Staff are always friendly and the service is very prompt

Mussels to start had gone rather cold. Cheese to end was also cold, as if straight from the fridge. Rather a shame, the other aspects were good.

Good tasty food. Nice, reasonably-priced wine. Visit somewhat spoiled by a lengthy wait for a cup of coffee at the end of the meal. Even when we asked about it, it did not arrive straight away.

The set menu is good value and the food and service are excellent. My only small gripe is that the mains don’t come with veg and they are quite small portions without veg. It really bumps the price up having to order sides.

May Pre Theatre menu had excellent choice. We had Grilled Sardines & Charcuterie Board for starter, Sea Bream for main and then classic Creme Caramel & Iced Berries for dessert. The starter & main meal were cooked to perfection. The staff were efficient and friendly and service spot on.
