Lovely restaurant, good food and atmosphere, great value, the italian/ Sicilian waiters were attentive and well mannered. Have already rebooked for out next visit to London.
The service was excellent, speedy and efficient from the door to the table and during the meal which contained superb three courses of food and drink.
Excellent service and high standard, medium priced food. We visit Cote As first choice when we travel round the UK and are delighted to find the chain is expanding and the quality never changes. Specials, are the best options though d favourites remain. Sadly Bream has disappeared for now, we hope it will be back?
Delicious food and excellent friendly service. We would particularly recommend the mushroom crepes with spinach and the belly pork. The complimentary bottle of wine was greatly appreviated too!
Excellent service and great food, as always. Never disappointed by Cote Brasserie. The standard is always high and doesn't vary. Our favourite restaurant, wherever we go.
My first time at this branch, although I regularly go to others. As always the food etc. were excellent and very good and attentive waiting staff. Excellent location for me so I shall be back.
I was eating with a friend before going to the ballet. I am on crutches and they could not have been more helpful, finding a table with plenty of room and easily accessible. The meal was excellent and very good value for money. My steak tartar was very good and the fish stew excellent. My only (minor) complaint was that it would have been nice to have had, or been offered bread with the stew to mop up the lovely juices. We were also a bit rushed at the end as I needed to allow extra time to get to the theatre but they delivered the puds swiftly when asked together with the bill and coffee so we were in plenty of time. I will certainly go back.
Really excellent staff and service who made one feel welcome whilst moving things quickly to get one's meal on the table in time to make the theatre. The food was fine for a pre theatre, central London affair. Would certainly return when returning to Covent Garden.
As always service was quick and efficient-essential as we were going to the Opera House after our meal. My friends were very impressed with the quality of the food and thought it very good value. We will be back soon
We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table because they were very busy with theatre-goers, but the staff were very accommodating and helpful and we were given a free drink for the trouble! I have only ever had good food and good service here, for a very reasonable price.
Lovely ambiance and the food was nicely done – the staff were attentive. We will certainly visit this restaurant again in the near future – very useful for several theatres and the Royal Opera House.
Great new October menu. Beef Bourguignon was delicious. Great service too. Great atmosphere. Busy but relaxed. Would definitely go again. If you're u gave not been then give it a try.
I had a great experience at the Cote Brasserie. The food was great and the noise never was good for talking. Overall, the service was good.
Excellent service from thoughtful restaurant staff who knew when you wanted them & when you did not. Food was excellent too- best onion soup I've had in ages!
Coped well with a largish party originally booked for 8 but which turned out to be 10. Everything ordered was available and delivers in reasonable time. Prices fair.
Ideal for “Theatreland” with excellent pre-theatre menu and service. Good choice of starters, mains and desserts on set menu. The staff are attentive and the surroundings are pleasant.
We were short of time for lunch and the staff were very good in ensuring that we were served all our courses swiftly so that we were able to leave on time. Food very good, as usual.
We were just looking for a quick unfussy brunch before a midday show in Covent Garden. We were counting on efficient service and a prompt meal - Côte delivered as usual. Tried the vegetarian breakfast this time, yummy and great value for money with a free juice and hot drink.
Great service at a very busy time. Even though we arrived late (train problems) they made sure we were seated. Food was awesome and quick to appear.
Speedy & professional service. Great pre-theatre restaurant. But is also a nice place to hang out when the hoards are seated watching their favourite shows.
Good choices of food and drink. Very professional and pleasant service. Couldn't have been better. Pleasant decor and clean rest room. We would go back.
We had an early matinee at the opera house so I booked a table for a late lunch at the tavistock street branch. As always will received a very friendly welcome and were shown to our table. Once again Cote have excelled themselves with October set lunch menu it has some of the most delicious starters and main courses included. Definitely something for all tastes. We both chose the muscles for starters followed by the chicken breast and sauté potatoes I had a green salad and we chose the White House wine which is absolutely superb. It was wonderful to see the friendly waiting staff who were attentive without being intrusive. There is no doubt about it Cote, offers excellent value for money with first class service and excellent food.
Being in the heart of Theatreland, they're really good at getting you served & out in time for your show. We had no trouble getting through 3 courses in a little over an hour, even though it was packed. Service was speedy & friendly. The pre-theatre set menu is a good deal & good quality.
Great service and food as ever! You can always be sure of a great meal here served efficiently by staff who always smile! A very well managed restaurant
Lovely friendly, helpful, efficient staff & usual terrific food and wine. Love the way the menu changed regularly. Best value ever!! Keep up the good work.
Great food very reasonable price..excellent service.....I can never fault, this really great establishment....Been there many times and will continue to do so...best value in London!!
we visited prior to an evening at the Royal Opera house nearby. Good pre theatre menu with Gluten Free options. Very pleasant efficient service and very reasonably priced.
We enjoyed our meal very much. My partner got there early, and she was given a complimentary Kir Royale while she waited for me,. We especially liked the Chocolate Mousse.
We enjoyed the food but service was slower than usual. (Only one course each.) This was serious as we were going on to a theatre!
Not as good as other Cotes outside the West End. Tables closer together, noisier and less good toilets. Portions also seemed smaller. But good value none the less.
This branch of Cote is consistently good, the service is always excellent as is the standard of food served. The prices are reasonable, considering the quality, and the location of the restaurant. Thoroughly recommended.
Everything was good. The soup was cold but instantly replaced. The table, service and general ambiance were all excellent. The restaurant was full which is always a good sign. Thank you
Cote Brasserie never fails to please. Good food, friendly staff., excellent value for money. Tavistock street is a good choice for Covent Garden. Thank you.
Good service, good food and a nice ambiance. We've used Cote before and will continue to do so based on this experience. Cote is good value for London but do book, they're busy busy.
It was great food and good service. The environment was a little squished before the theatre started. Be sure to book to get a table.
Good quality, fast service restaurant ideal for a quick pre or post theatre meal. Rather crowded Good greeting from manager who had a friendly, professional attitude. Overall good value.
I enjoyed Cote this evening - we wanted a simple, quick meal, and that is what we had! Neither of us is drinking this week, unfortunately, and we each had a different fish dish from the set menu, and a dessert, and were perfectly happy with our choices. We got in early at 5 pm and it was nice and quiet - but of course by the time we left at 6.30 it was very busy and noisy. But I do think Cote is wonderful value, and I do highly recommend it for a pre-theatre meal OR a later more leisurely dinner. The staff are very good, friendly, quick and efficient.
Warm welcome, good attention by staff but not rushed, and an excellent menu. Ambient noise at a level where normal conversation was possible. Pricing was good considering quality and central london location
Food and service was Faultless! Quick and efficient and good eye for detail. Waiters are helpful, enthusiastic and overall very welcoming. Will definitely be returning!
Very helpful service and great atmosphere, sorry that the portions of chips and calamari ( 5 ) seem to be shrinking starting to be not so good value. However we hope you reconsider the portions as up to now it's been great value
Good location near to Covent Garden. Had lunch at 12.15pm, service was little slow taking drinks order but food was faster. Staff friendly and wide selection of food at reasonable price.
One of my favourite dining places in London before going to the theatre. Service was friendly and helpful and the food is consistently fresh and flavourful.
The food was excellent. The restaurant was extremely busy, so the noise levels were high, but it created a lively atmosphere. The staff were efficient and helpful.
Really good choice pre or post theatre! Really quick service and attentive and the fixed price menu is great value
Great food and service as ever. My favourite Cote. Always come back!
Always a pleasure. Pre and Post Theatre Menu varies every month (apart from signature steak frites) the price just can't be beaten. Always friendly helpful staff.
We visited Cote Bistro with friends from Australia prior to a visit to the opera. We all enjoyed a superb meal with excellent service which surprised and pleased us as the restaurant was buzzing on a very busy Saturday evening. How they can maintain the standards when they are so busy is a credit to the staff and management. This was not our first visit to Cote Bistro nor will it be our last. We would highly recommend it
Treated like royalty for my friends special birthday, Kir Royale on arrival and a special dessert just for her, candle and all. This is the second time I have been and will definitely be going again nothing is too much trouble, food is excellent.
Good food and a pleasant atmosphere, it's busy pre-theatre so need to book. This was great value for money considering what you pay in London for a 3 course meal
Great food and the friendliest staff in the West End. Perfect pre-theatre visit and certainly our favourite. Rib Eye steak was outstanding. Lovely chilled bottle of dry white too.
