On a Saturday evening, the restaurant was packed with pre-theatre customers but we experienced the usual friendly and efficient service and thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Great service, friendly staff helped us find a quiet table on a busy night - my mother is hard of hearing and struggles with noisy places. The waitress was very kind and helpful. Our food was lovely. A great convenient place to go in Covent Garden, minutes from National Portrait Gallery, for reliably good brassiere food, atmosphere and service. I had the pea and broadbean risotto which was tasty and fresh.

Pre theatre dinner so prompt service was great, the food hot and well presented. The tables were very tightly packed in and the noise level high, so at 7pm on a Friday evening its not the place for a quiet meal. I would go back as inexpensive and convenient pre theatre. Take care to book at this time.

Service excellent. Food good, but like a lot of Côte restaurants they are noisy. Why nothing to absorb the noise? It is difficult to have a conversation.

Restaurant was very busy during pre-theatre time. As a result, the waiters were very slow to ask for a drink or if we were ready to order. They were polite throughout and the food was tasty

Excellent waitress who gave us a quiet table, just as we'd asked, and was very attentive. I had meant to book at St Martin's Lane - confusing, as two Cote restaurants are called Covent Garden branches. Very good food, and reasonable prices - good atmosphere!

Unfortunately the evening we ate at Cote was not as satisfactory as we had hoped. We were sat fairly close to the door and every time it opened freezing air circulated. We had to eat with our coats on!

yself and a friend went for a meal after going to a matinee on Sunday afternoon, knowing the restaurant would be busy we pre booked a table for 3.45pm. In fact when we arrived the restaurant was extremely quiet, the waiting staff were extremely attentive, the food and service was up to the excellent standard I have come to expect at this branch of cote.

Took my mum, wife and children for a birthday supper. All our food was great, the staff couldn't have been more friendly, though as it was a very busy Saturday night the service could have been a bit quicker. Wouldn't hesitate to go back.

One of my favourite restaurants in London, especially when I suggest where to eat. The staff is Great and the food is always amazing and tasty. I took a friend for late lunch and she was thoroughly pleased that she informed me that she went back two weeks later. Lunch was nice and unrushed. Perfect start to wonderful evening.
