Pre-theatre menu has a super speedy service for all three courses, and yet the food is still of a very high quality. Good atmosphere in the restaurant but not too nosy where we sat (at what is probably its busiest time).

For a pre-theatre dinner, it was ideal. The service was attentive and prompt without feeling rushed. The only downside was the salad starter, where the pear wasn't ripe and the goats cheese was sparse! The rest of the meal was faultless.

I really like Cote and the set menu is excellent value. The app is great as well as we were able to book 15 mins beforehand and a very tiring day out in Covent Garden.

Lovely meal and we were given a complimentary drink as it was a birthday. We did not make it in time for the pre theatre menu which is excellent value but it did not matter as food is well priced and my steak frites was delicious. We always eat here when we meet in London

Good food and good value with friendly service, as always. The restaurant was busy, and although space always seems at a premium here, on this occasion we seemed particularly tightly packed. Two of us had to move if anyone at neighbouring tables wanted to get out. This is the reason for marking down, and I'm sure we will be back.

Cote Restaurants are consistently excellent and the Tavistock Street Restaurant was no exception to this. The menu choices appealed to even the fussiest of our group. The delicious food is well presented and served by lovely friendly staff who work very hard in this busy restaurant. The pre-theatre menu is excellent value.

We were particularly impressed with the efficiency and courtesy of the waiters and waitresses. Reasonably priced menu that very much suited our tastes. Liked tipping included in the bill thus saving deliberation time before the show we were booked to see. Toilets clean with paper towels - very important.

We were greeted immediately and were recognised as having asked for 1 gluten free menu, impressive, and quickly shown to our table. The service was very attentive and every item of gluten free food was identified by a little flag, so no mistakes. Overall a very pleasant experience.

This group must be one of the most professional with consistently high standards throughout their chain of branches. Covent Garden branch was busy on the night I went t but this did NOT distract from the quality of the food or the service they provided me and my guests. They are getting it so right when many fail

Obviously understaffed and overbooked. We had to wait 12 mins for our 7pm table to be free. As we had a deadline of leaving AT 8 this was most frustrating. I never received change from my cash payment of the bill. I would have left it as a tip anyway but not right that this was assumed to be the case. This the 2nd time in three weeks that I have been unhappy with service. Difficult to stay loyal to an establishment that obviously does not care too much any more. The steaks were good though.

Excellent service as usual. The food was pretty good I do love your chocolate mousse and the sea bream was nicely cooked with no bones. All told we thought we had value for money. Except we wont be ordering sides of french fries again. £3 for this 'free sample' was a joke.

We received good, prompt service, all the food was very tasty. Overall we enjoyed our experience there. Only issue was regarding the children’s meals. Both children ordered cod goujons, disappointed when their meals arrived with only two average sized goujons and a very small pot of peas, not much for £5.50!

Really good pre-theatre menu this month, and a very nice table except for the fact that the noise from a plate dropping off/collecting area was rather intrusive. Staff were excellent as usual.

We were served by a lovely Italian girl called Carlotta (I think that was her name). She was from near Venice! She was excellent, incredibly attentive and really knew her stuff. She was very busy but didn’t seem stressed and balanced her self out over all the tables she was serving! Really lovely girl!! Made me want to go back.

Everything was very good, except there was a delay with coming to take our order for puddings, and a delay bringing them. BUT, you were kind enough to give a discount to compensate and also gave a voucher for a free bottle of wine on my next visit - both things much appreciated. All the staff we met were friendly and helpful.
