We had a great pre theater supper and just typing that is great. Adam from Wales was a super host and really attentive. I had to beat my sisters off him🤣🤣 It was so lovely to return to Cot’e for supper in the west end. Thank you Tim Paul Rachel Justine Xxx

It is so good to be back! As usual the staff were brilliant, I watched one of them spend five minutes patiently explaining the menu to a customer who couldn't work out the Christmas menu with or without the wine, for them to be employed again and for me to help keep them in a job is wonderful.

We often eat here when we visit Covent Garden and surrounding area. It was good to return after recent lockdown although unfortunately the restaurant was rather cold due to present circumstances so do wrap up warm.

Everything was very much how we have experienced in the past and how we expected it to be under the current very strange circumstances. The atmosphere was fine and the staff were all very pleasant as usual. The food was up to your normal high standards and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The absence of musak was also most welcome.

We had a very nice evening at Cote Brasserie. We were glad to be back there, having eaten at this branch many times in the past, mainly for pre-theatre eating prior to going to the Coliseum. I had mentioned in my booking that it was my husband's birthday and the staff very kindly provided complimentary Kir Royale on arrival. The food was good as usual and the service excellent. We were just sorry to see the place so empty and hope things will improve for you eventually.

We had a very enjoyable meal last night and our waitress was lovely, very friendly and efficient. Sad you are having to close again due to COVID but we are regular concert go-ers to St Martins so we look forward to coming back and dining at Coté again.

One of the best family meals ever and also an amazing value for money. Chateaubriand was just perfect as well as the salads, the side dishes and children meals. The waiter was wonderfully attentive and the overall service and ambience was superb. We will certainly be back!

Eating at Cote St Martins Lane is a reassuringly safe and comforting treat right now. Carefully managed seating arrangements, excellent hygiene regulations and plenty of hand sanitiser around should you feel the need, the kind and friendly staff are meticulously trained to allow you to relax and enjoy fabulous food and wine in the cleanest and cosiest surroundings. It's a little haven of rest in an otherwise agitated London. Book now!

The restaurant was virtually empty so lacked the vibe of a usual meal at Cote but the place looked as welcoming as ever - candles lit at every table, even downstairs I noticed when I went to the loo - and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. Two small criticisms about the food. I had the pork tenderloin which was advertised as coming with a celeriac purée. As a result I ordered frites on the side. The purée was, in fact, more potato than celeriac and I would have done better with a green vegetable on the side. Secondly, something was over salted as I’ve been drinking cups of tea ever since my visit!

When I booked the table I thought that two new fig cocktails were complimentary. As my wife does not like figs we only had one and that was charged for on the bill. Was this a mistake or did I get it wrong? The goats cheese salad had vegetables that were steamed not roasted. Serving it in a bowl meant that the dressing was at the bottom of the bowl and not on the food. The bowl also made it difficult to eat. My wife turned it out on to a plate which did not help the presentation but made it much easier to eat. It tasted fine but she would have prefered proper roasted veg as described.

What a treat to eat at Cote St Martin's Lane yesterday. Easily the warmest welcome in London, followed by swift service, friendly and helpful staff all paying close attention to cleaning and distancing protocols. This all helps you to relax and feel safe and well cared-for. We enjoyed a delicious lunch with the freshest ingredients cooked to perfection, and savoured a terrific (yet not expensive) glass of champagne. The overall value for money is great. We'll be back as soon as we can....

We went for an early dinner midweek, and although the restaurant was quite empty when we arrived the staff made us feel very welcome. The food was delicious. Best smoked salmon I have had. Very good thin plat rapide steak with thin crispy chips and perfect green salad. Good wines by the glass and quick and efficient service. What we had thought of as a quick efficient meal turned into a huge treat!

I could not fault the warm welcome and attentive service. All the current Covid-19 regulations were adhered to with the minimum of fuss. The food was delicious and the complementary Rhubarb Martini aperitif much appreciated - will definitely order one of those again!
