The food was very nice however the service was unable to cope with the pre-theatre 6 pm rush. It took almost 20 minutes for someone to take our order and we had to attract the waiter’s attention, no one approached our table at all. There was also a mistake with the bill - we handed in our voucher for free Kir Royales when we ordered but they were added to the bill. They were removed but this took time - all rather stressful given we had to be at a nearby theatre for 7.30. One and a half hours should have been more than adequate time for 2courses without have to rush.

A perfect pre- theatre lunch with friends. Côte St Martins Lane is perfectly located for the theatre, and the excellent welcome, service, food and atmosphere really makes a great start to quality leisure time. And the prices are great too! We wouldn’t go anywhere else....

The three of us used the (various) set-price lunch menus, and were very pleased with the quality of our choices and the value for money they represented. The service was good but not intrusive - and all orders were taken accurately and met promptly. Would recommend.

We were treated with the upmost courtesy and a table in the window was reserved for us. The set course premium menu has a great variety of dishes which would suit most peoples taste and as always, our meal was well cooked and presented. We both had the melon and ham starter which was delicious as was our main courses and dessert. Cannot fault this restaurant and it is our "go to" when visiting the theatres. Recommend you book a table as they are very busy at theatre times.

Very pleasant visit to Cote, St Martins Lane, pre-theatre. Food was good, we were served fairly quickly and waiters were friendly and professional. As expected, noise levels were frenetic and the restaurant was at full capacity but the staff coped well. Always good value and worth a visit.

Although busy when we arrived (6.45pm), it didn't take long for us to be seated (we had booked a table). Staff are clearly used to the busy environment and were very happy to help. Having a particular dietary requirement had been noted on the online order and staff were already aware of this. When it came to ordering, the restaurant manager joined the waitress to ensure that all dietary requirements were addressed. All our requests were dealt with and the staff made us feel completely at ease. We really felt looked after. The meal was delicious and very well cooked. We would highly recommend this particular Cote Brasserie, and would definitely return again.

Very enjoyable lunch. Ate from the a la carte menu with a couple of September specials. We arrived 1:15pm on Sunday and it was quiet in comparison with Saturday lunch which was perfect for us. Our waitress was brilliant, she recommended the two specials and they were spot on, the service was excellent. Well done Cote

Dear Cote - St Martins Lane A FABULOUS lunch for our group of 17 - Ammy - our waitress deserves a special shout out - she was amazing dealing with our SEN group. Her smile, good humour and ability to manage our large group was really impressive. The sign of a good hostess - you don’t see them there...and it happens like magic. Which is what our lunch was - just the right start to our theatre trip. Thank you from the Derwen College parents group
