Côte - St Martin's Lane

We were late arriving but it wasn’t a problem and they were very helpful to my friend who is in a wheel chair. It was very busy but we were still well and cheerfully attended to. Well done.

Good food and excellent service. highly recommend this venue and would visit again.

A very rude lady at front of house who tried to seat us downstairs by the loos was not a good start. The food was good but overall experience marred by the poor welcome.

Excellent service at this restaurant. We have been coming here for years and shall continue to do so. The food is always good and reasonably priced too.

Always excellent service at this restaurant. We have been coming here for years and shall continue to do so. The food is always good and reasonably priced too.

This is our favourite restaurant. Excellent service at this restaurant. We have been coming here for years and shall continue to do so. The food is always good and reasonably priced too.

The food was excellent. The restaurant was not too busy when we first arrived but filled up quickly. Service was rather slow which prevented us ordering a dessert or coffee. We needed nearly 2 hours just for a main course. It was very noisy which made conversation difficult. We were seated at the end of the bar near the till which may have contributed to the noise as the waiters tend to stand there to deliver the meals to the tables.

Lovely food, good range of dishes. Service nice but not intrusive. Very nice atmosphere, ideal for a whole range of meals from tete a tete to group celebrations.

The pre-theatre dinner was very good and the service was excellent, however due to the attempt to pack the restaurant to maximise sales my chair was constantly kicked by staff and clients. I have eaten at Cote restaurants many times and like the atmosphere. Thank you, Pat

Superb restaurant,great ambience and friendly warm staff. Lovely food and great gluten free range. Central location and easily accessible via a number of routes. I am not a fan of chain restaurants but this chain has great food with flavour

Food is good and service friendly but one persisting problem is that the condiments are usually delivered very late to the table or you end up reminding waiting staff so a small thing that needs improvement as it’s irritating. Next time I’m not paying the service.

It was very good! I enjoyed my visit very much! Lovely food and there was a great atmosphere! Looking forward to my next visit already!

We had a great time. I had the duck which was lovely and cooked perfectly. But it was the waitress who really made the evening super. It was a bit noisy though, but what do you expect this time of year!

The food was lovely. The pre theatre menu is amazing value for money. The staff were also lovely but constantly asked if we were ready to order, they asked too frequently with not much time in between each asking even though I said I'd give them a wave when we were ready. This was the case before every course. Just a little thing but thought it worth mentioning

As always, the waiters were very friendly and the food delicious. So good to be served quickly before the theatre. I would recommend to anyone.

All went well nice table and attentive staff. Food arrived quickly and drinks.came as soon as they were requested with water. Would have liked wine and water to have been slightly colder, otherwise it was a good evening.

Nice atmosphere. Good friendly service. Excellent menu choices. Delicious food. Good value for money. Will certainly visit again. Never disappointed. Will recommend to friends and family

Excellent food as always. Excellent menu as always. Excellent staff as always. I have been to Cote over 40 times and have never been disappointed.

Food was full of flavour and was beautifully presented. Helpful and friendly staff even though the restaurant was very busy. I thought it was excellent value.

Excellent food, but we had a long wait for our main course. However the manager reduced our bill on account of the delay, so all was well. Very enjoyable !

Absolutely loved this restaurant. Excellent service. Food was just perfect. I can't wait to come back very soon

We had a very enjoyable meal with friends & the staff were really friendly & professional. Very busy restaurant but a good atmosphere. I would definitely recommend the branch of Cote Brasserie.

There was an overwhelming feeling of being rushed with the waiter hovering expecting us to order before we had hardly had a moment to look at the menu

Really nice food! The Christmas menu was especially good. I had the French onion soup and the steak, both were cooked to perfection. Well done

The staff were excellent, food faultless and excellent value. They conjoured up a small cake for my partners birthday at no extra charge. Will definitely be going back again.

Service at Cote restaurants is always friendly and efficient, even when madly busy as at pre-theatre times. And the food is excellent and good value.

Delicious meal before anther to trip to the theatre. Cote St Martin's Lane is our ideal restaurant for pre or post theatre dinners. The service was nice, efficient and friendly. And the food excellent!

Lovely dinner before going to the the theatre. We didn't have much time for our meal but the service was so quick and efficient that we managed to have the three course pre-theatre menu which was delicious.

The St Martins Lane branch is not in Covent Garden, the Tavistock Street branch is the one in Covent Garden. Be sure to book the one you want! Food as good as ever, service a bit slow but it was v busy near Christmas.

The food and service was as good as always - plus, although we were almost half an hour late, they held our table for us.

The Food was excellent and atmosphere buzzing but not too much, location was excellent too for Covent Garden and staff were very pleasant throughout our visit

As per usual , very good food . A friend ordered mussels to start and was presented with a plate of many empty shells . This was rectified immediately and the manager was very apologetic. Good customer service. I will say that many of cote establishments are very noisy especilly this one

Generally an overall good evening. Food was nice. Waiters were busy so had to wait for a while to get my table at the entrance and waiting to be served.

Friendly welcome , great service and superb food. Restaurant was very busy but staff were very attentive and unobtrusive so we cannot fault the venue and we will return next time we visit London+

Very enjoyable meal from the Christmas menu. It was very busy but service was good and we didn't have to wait long for initial drinks then the meal. It seemed essential to have booked a table.

Great visit! The staff were very attentive and the food was great (the calamari is a must). Slight mix up on our order but it was corrected quickly

very accommodating, friendly and helpful We keep coming back to this branch because the manager is so professional and the food so good. A nice friday afternoon treat

Enjoyed our visit, only thing we would change was that the meal felt quite rushed and we poured our own wine as it was too busy to get the waiters attention.

The lunch menu is good value for money. A good choice is offered. The food is straightforward and good. Service is good. All good in fact. Well almost - the space is cramped and tables small; the room is noisy; a service charge is added to the bill; and my meal was served on a bit of wood, which bearing in mind that plates have evolved to do the task perfectly, is a mistake. But decent food at a fair price trumps all. I would be happy to return.

We had a super evening at Cote recently. cote never disappoints. As a party of eight we were looked after extremely well, wonderful staff delicious food, we couldn't fault it. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Welcomed to the restaurant and promptly shown to table. Very fast attentive service from the staff and very friendly too. Good atmosphere in the restaurant.

Great value pre-theatre dinner with very pleasant service. However, was asked if I wanted something to drink when I first arrived but it was over 10 minutes before the glass of wine arrived at the table. And the french mustard I requested to accompany my steak-frites NEVER arrived! (Hence only 5/6 - but still a great meal).

Quick meal before the theatre . Perfect location . Gods service and excellent food. Helpful , efficient staff . I would return again . Well done Cote

The food here never disappoints. Always try set pretheatre menu - great food for not much more than the main pizza chains cost! I can also recommend their house red wine - it’s v gluggable!

Excellent service and food as always . We arrived early and were able to take our table immediately. We both ordered smoked mackerel rillete it was delicious plenty of it. Out

Good food and pleasant service but a bit slow. The restaurant was very busy so the food was delivered very slowly despite us saying we had Togo to the theatre.

We eat here often. Service is always wonderful, and food usually very nice and excellent value with the pre theatre menu. Only a 4 this time as my Pork main was 33% fat. I pointed this out to the waitress and got an apology, but no compensation which was disappointing. I will return however

We went for a pre theatre meal at Cote and all four of us enjoyed the experience. The food was very good, great value 3 course set menu £14.95. We also received 4 complimentary Kir Royale's as I am registered with Cote and it was a birthday treat. Ambience was great, continuously busy, Manager on the desk and the staff were very efficient and friendly. Our friends had never been to any Cote before but after their time spent here they both agreed they would definitely try another. Thank you Cote..St Martin's Lane.

It is a very cozy restaurant with amazing food and a really good service. Definitely recommend to try the onion soup and roasted duck breast.

Generally very good, food tasty and prices reasonable. Service a bit hit miss especially when the waiting staff change shift halfway through your meal. Also, why so many different menus? We had no less than 5 different ones, gets very confusing.
