Côte - St Martin's Lane

Service was fast and polite despite the restaurant being very busy. If anything, service was too fast as our mains arrived before we had finished our fougasse!

I booked the wrong time for our dinner but the manager was super kind and sorted a table for us straight away. Our two waiters were both lovely guys. Great food and great service. Very happy!

Great breakfast brunch! However, we were disappointed that we were not able to order from the lunch menu - it was not clear lunch was not served till noon.

we had a meal on a busy Saturday evening, the meal was absolutely incredible and the service for such a busy evening was impeccable. Friendly staff simply could've not been more attentive and helpful.

Excellent meal and very good service. The restaurant was full which for an early lunch was surprising, the waiting staff kept on top of everything with a smile.

Have eaten here several times before and enjoyed the experience. On this occasion service was poor, with steaks not cooked to order and having to be returned and an incorrect bill at the end. All resolved amicably and will return to give them another chance!

Consistently good as usual. Staff, unfailingly pleasant & efficient. Quality of food up to usual high standard. Only "niggle" that the "special" dish of scallops was less than good value for money & the recommended wine highlighted on the menu was inexplicably unavailable.

Cote food and service was as good as ever. But it was packed and down in the basement the noise was deafening which spoilt the experience.

Excellent food, service and attention to detail! The staff were welcoming and helpful. The restaurant was fully booked so a bit noisy with pre-theatre diners.

Perfect pre dinner meal, great atmosphere. lots of other venues are available too mostly right next to the theatres. food was tasty,fresh,hot and served quickly, great prices too.

Good food, good service, convenient to theater district but SUPER busy for dinner on matinee days because of post- and pre- crowds. Would go again.

Excellent service from waiter on his first day - the pre-theatre menu is great value and really tasty food, espcially the creme caramel which is the best ever.

A lovely meal with great service. An ideal environment for pre theatre dining or indeed at any time. Never had a bad meal. Staff very friendly.

As always, Cote provided a tasty pre-theatre meal at a reasonable price, with excellent service. It's rather cramped, and a little on the noisy side, but highly recommended.

An excellent value pre-theatre meal. The restaurant was very busy, but the service was still good. The quality of the food was good too. We will go back again! Highly recommended.

Good service and great food close to theatre land. Friendly waiter, good wine and service just right. Not too pushy but attentive and didn't feel rushed.

Everything up to the usual high standard. Extremely good value for money (set, pre-theatre meal). Only problem: the pea soup could have been hotter (we should have sent it back).

Great location and this wasn't my first time dining here. Service was a little slow and one part of our order was forgotten, though generally reliable. Extremely busy at pre-theatre time

Good service and delicious food. We ate from the pre-theatre menu which had a good selection to choose from and it arrived quickly. Service was attentive and polite.

very good service, and delicious food,a big thank you cote we will be back for more hopefully very soon, well done at cote ST MARTINS LANE

Good food , set menu has wide choice . Very busy restaurant you need to book as they were full on Wednesday lunch time .

Good speedy service as usual. Lovely food and good wine, all for a very reasonable price. I had duck terrine and sea bass and my friend had the most delicious soupe au poisson followed by roast duck

The 3 course lunch had a good variety to choose from and the food was a high standard. We had outstanding service and we thought it was excellent value. Many thanks.

Service slow and chaotic. Waited 20 minutes for coffee, and when we asked for the Bill waited another 20 minutes. Otherwise food excellent as usual.

Love using this venue - always great food , good atmosphere and very friendly service . We can't fault it for value for money given the central location

restaurant very good and waiter friendly and attentive. Resent being told to provide minimum of 25 words for review - need to change this quandoo.

Another great restaurant meal with excellent food and service. I keep coming back time and time again because the set menu is so good. I would recomend this place to anyone.

Good service and food quite enjoyable. Restaurant rather noisy at 7pm so not easy to hear each others' conversation. Would probably go to another Cote in a quieter place.

Restaurant in good location for theatres and London n9ght life. Good food and overall nice experience staff friendly and attentive would go back again and can recommend to others.

First experience of Cote and very much looking forward to returning. Food of high quality and service friendly without being intrusive. Thought it quite a find.

tTable service Staff unfriendly and slow to respond- they seemed to forget we were customers- one even seemed to get annoyed when we made a request. Also frisée salad cold - no apology- service POOR- arrogant male in particular with beard- also staff walked up and down with no eye contact i.e. Not looking around- and yet service included! Not good POOR.

Very busy with good atmosphere, staff a bit overworked to be attentative but food was perfect, i would recomend this Coté to anyone who is looking for a lively café with lots going on, not for a quiet romantic meal though,,, again , food was great

We had great food, good service and it was reasonably priced - thank you. Usual Cote standard - was a first visit for our nephew from Canada!

The restaurant was busy with early evening customers. Our food was well prepared, the service was friendly but not over attentive, the fixed price menu choices were good and excellent value for central London.

Excellent staff, helpful and very friendly. Menu full of choice and very tasty. Excellent value for money on the lunchtime special, would certainly recommend booking.

quickly seated at a busy time-food was very nice(pate starter,duck and pork mains)good selection of wines,we chose the Bordeaux,which was excellent. The service was very good,full marks to our waitress(Sylvia)

Excellent food and service. Great menu choice and set lunch good value. Nice buzzy atmosphere and friendly staff. Wasn't rushed at all - great choice for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Great lunch good service Nothing to not like . Only problem is that I have to write 25 words instead of just saying- it was great

Very busy but excellent service. Food order correct and to a high standard. Downstairs seating not the best but as the place was stacked out there was no alternative available.

Excellent menu , good quality starters and main courses , Attentive and friendly staff , very good atmosphere , will definitely be returning on our next visit to London

We enjoyed the food, and were well served. However we found the noise level in the restaurant very stressful. It was difficult to converse and feel relaxed.

The food was delicious and good value but service was rather slow. We were left sitting without drinks or water for a while, although I appreciate it was a very busy time - 5.45. The bill wasnt delivered very promptly either, luckily we werent in a hurry. Overall the restaurant was extremely noisy which can be difficult for older people, both service noise and general conversation. I'll try asking for a quiet table against the wall next time but may not make any difference.

Lunched at Côte St Martin's Lane many times and as always terrific food & great value. The baked camembert was superb. Will definitely be returning.

Excellent value for money on the pre theatre set menu,good choice of dishes and pleasant staff.The position is ideal for dinner before going to the ENO

The fixed menu is excellent value. Food was lovely. Service was great. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant. I am a great fan of the Cote Brasserie group and have eaten in several of their restaurants.

Very pleasant staff, food was good and served quick. Would use this restaurant again. Very busy I would advise to book a table, you won't be disappointed.

Restaurant very busy but staff coped with our order well. Food usual good standard. Our table very near to the door and queue quite intrusive.

Served very efficiently and quickly although the waiter was so busy he was almost turning away as he asked the question 'Is everything all right with your meal' "Yes, Sea Bass is very nice but the fennel could do with an extra couple of minutes on the grill......" Too late, he'd gone.

Love this chain! Great food, good service, nice wine and good locations. A chain restaurant that keeps you coming back and back. Very very tasty!

We really like this restaurant. The food is good and the service friendly. Whenever we are going to theatre, we usually go there and have never been disappointed.
