Tasty dinner and the service was super friendly :) it was Saturday pre-theatre time so it was busy but the food came quickly. Cannot beat the price either for the location - £56 for two people, two courses, bottle of wine and a tip.

Very squashed in at a table very squeezed into the corner. Waited quite a while to be served but once we ordered our food came very quickly. I like cote but at this branch the chicken breton was dry and they had run out of pork tenderloin so wasnt as good a visit as usually is at other branches of cote and instead of enjoying it after the theatre you dont relax as you are squashed in so not comfortable and so busy. I suppose being a pre or post theatre branch it is going to be busy so I would recommend other branches to this.

The only thing which was not good was that the fish was not properly cooked and we had to send it back. Everything else was perfect.

Sadly we had to wait for our main meal, which caused us anxiety as we needed to be at the ROH for a performance. ( No admission for the whole first act, if yo are late} The food was very good though.

Myself and 6 other family members came for breakfast last weekend and the food and service was brilliant. The breakfasts were hot and the waitress was so friendly. It is so nice to visit a restaurant and have a pleasant experience from start to finish. I will be recommending.

Food was delicious however at one point the waitress handed me a boiling hot place because she wasn't paying attention to what she was doing and only after I grabbed the plate did she tell me it was hot. it was a little late for that...

Our lunch was great, service was good in general but had to flag someone to order and then again to pay. They were probably a bit short of Staff. Overall a very good experience

I’ve been to Côte many times at various establishments and at Covent Garden I had a woeful experience as my main dish Venison Pie had a little to no Venison in it, 95% mash. This will be complained about a lot ,just take it off the menu, I paid for my meal I don’t want any compensation, just letting you know ! Kind regards David Power

Really feel our table was too big and in future would take 2x6 instead of one big one and also 7 or 8 people had steaks and they were problems with so many at once

I am a regular customer, usually visiting your brassiere in Blackheath and London Bridge. I was disappointed last night when I saw such a big difference at how food is served in Covent Garden. I have to mention that it wasn’t busy the place. The steak came by itself on the plate, the dessert in a soup plate , no plating, so different that the other places. I thought that all Cote have high standards but it seems they don’t!

Great touch with the complementary glasses of champagne upon arrival and friendly staff. Shame about the portion of mushroom on starters as we ordered two but one had literally a couple of slices on it and had to ask the waiter for some more. Spoon was also not provided with the mussels for the sauce but ddnt wna ask again as ddnt wna seem demanding. My steak was more like medium well than medium but also ddnt wna send it back. Overall ok with the dining experience but dining tables were roo close to each other.

Food was good, service was good - but I was over-charged. We booked a special offer which gave us complimentary martinis if we ordered from the a la carte menu, which we did. This was confirmed by the maitre d' on arrival. I paid the bill and left, but only realised on the way home that the "complimentary" drinks had been charged for, costing me an extra £20.85. I will not be caught out at this restaurant again.
