Food was very good with excellent service, the only minor issue was that the restaurant was very warm and stuffy, an open window or air conditioning would have made the experience more enjoyable.

The warm Roquefort salad - the sauce was not warm. The fish gouging were cold and had to be sent back. It was disappointing . We usually really enjoy eating at Cote.

Prompt and courteous service with a great value menu which also has superb food. The french onion soup, followed by the pork belly was excellent. We come back again and again to this wonderful restaurant. Thank you.

Service was excellent as was the food, but the skin of the belly pork wasn't completely crackling like it was on the previous visit. The only blemish in a very good value meal.

Fantastic meal for our family party of 6 in very relaxed atmosphere. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient. The only slightly negative comment is the condition and location of the toilets - in the basement by the kitchen.

Excellent food as always: service efficient and business like. We have visited several Cote Brasserie branches, and found them to be consistently of good quality. would like it if occasional loyalty discounts were offered.

Normally,I am wowed when I eat at Côte but on this occasion it was very average.Waiter got the order wrong and then our mains arrived without the sides which took a further 12 minutes to arrive. When the bill was eventually presented I found i had been charged for what should have been complimentary French 75 ‘s .This was eventually corrected. The restaurant lacked direction although the staff were friendly ,just not very customer oriented!

We are all great fans of Cote, have rarely if ever a poor meal. The choice of dishes is huge and good value, with generous portion sizes, the prices are reasonable and service always prompt and very friendly. Last night was no exception. Our waitress noted we needed to leave for the theatre just after 7pm and our meal (delicious) arrived very fast.

I tried the lamb parmentier. An awful dish served in a small preprepared ramekin. 95% potato with very thin layer of lamb at the base The dish also came with a large side dish of carrots At best I would call this mediocre airline fare

We had a little time as it was pre-west end theatre. We booked in advance and chose the set menu as we had limited time. Very friendly service. The set menu is both good value for money yet still has a nice quality choice different from the alternative bistros of other restaurants.

Another smashing evening at Cote B! Lovely atmosphere, the service, by Charlotte, was outstanding. She was charming and efficient. The food overall was good, although, if I’m going to be honest, the pork belly was dry (can’t be perfect all the time)

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.

We reserved a table of 6 for a birthday celebration. We received attentive service throughout and food was, as always, great value for money. There was a lively atmosphere but never too loud that we couldn't talk amongst ourselves. An enjoyable lunch!

We waited a little while for a table and were very pleasantly surprised when the bar staff offered us complementary kir royale whilst we were waiting! It was very busy but the food arrived promptly, and was good quality for the price (as usual). We will definitely visit this branch of Cote again. My only negative comment would be that the toilets downstairs aren't in a great state - cramped and not very clean inside.

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.

Our pre-booked party of six were squeezed onto a table for four and I had to move several times to let other people in and out. Food was OK but could have been better.
