Scrumptious menu, easy reservations online, friendly attentive staff, and consistent meals with several locations. We enjoy it very much as an extra special dinner put with not-outrageous prices.

Two of our meals (steak & salad) arrived together, but we had to wait a further 10 mins for my daughter's fish goujons without a reason

Good food and very good service. We have eaten here for many years and on Friday evening one of the waiters we knew was managing the place. Good to see Cote rewards their staff with promotions.

It is always a joy to visit one of the Cotes restaurant, with its impressive menu, beautifully cooked and artistically arranged for service. With a warm smile, the charming waiters welcome visitors and do everything in their power to ensure a pleasurable evening. Have been several times and never let down by the high quality of food and service. We will be back!

Good service and nice atmosphere. Food was lovely and excellent value for money (particularly the weekday set menu). Also appreciate the great selection (and separate menu) for gluten-free/coeliac choices. Selection of wines by the glass also pretty impressive for a high street chain. Great lunch!

The Cote de Boeuf was sadly somewhat overcooked, dry and not particularly warm. The service was very good though, and the staff friendly and attentive.

Excellent food and friendly, but not intrusive, service. We arrived early but that was no problem and we were seated in the window so could see what was going on! We chose off the a la carte menu and had drinks as well so that put the bill up - we will definitely re-visit for special occasions.

Excellent environment, service and quality of food. The location is ideal. Close to all the attractions of Central London but without the Theatre crowds. This is our third visit and the quality has been sustained.

The early evening menu is great value. The food was very well cooked and presented. I was very impressed with the pork belly, the cracking was crispy with the pork still tender.

A group of 7 met up for a meal. Table was booked for 6pm to take advantage of the early evening menu, which was great value for money. We were told there was no sea bass; despite this everyone in the group enjoyed the food, wine and surroundings. Staff were alvery friendly. Toilets very clean. We are hoping to return to Cote very shortly for our next get together.

The wait staff were very pleasant and gave us a lovely choice of seating, my date and I had the Roast Duck which was also superb, on top of which, all was remarkably well priced. I have and will continue to recommend the service and food provided to me that evening.
