visited on Saturday...restaurant was very busy, but the service was very good. the food arrived very quickly and was hot and tasty...very service will be back.
Excellent food as always: service efficient and business like. We have visited several Cote Brasserie branches, and found them to be consistently of good quality. would like it if occasional loyalty discounts were offered.
Normally,I am wowed when I eat at Côte but on this occasion it was very average.Waiter got the order wrong and then our mains arrived without the sides which took a further 12 minutes to arrive. When the bill was eventually presented I found i had been charged for what should have been complimentary French 75 ‘s .This was eventually corrected. The restaurant lacked direction although the staff were friendly ,just not very customer oriented!
Fantastic venue for our early evening meal offering great value ..especially in central London. Guaranteed quality no matter where you eat. Will return again very soon.
Always a reliable experience. I invited a friend who had never been to a Cote brasserie before and he enjoyed it immensely. Love the menu changing regularly and keeping up with produce that is in season.
Great meal, good service and lovely atmosphere, highly recommend ordered the steak today it was delicious as always have never been disappointed will definitely return 😀
Was lovely great food, steak cooked perfectly and lovely service such value for money. We had booked our table so was shown to our table straight away.
We are all great fans of Cote, have rarely if ever a poor meal. The choice of dishes is huge and good value, with generous portion sizes, the prices are reasonable and service always prompt and very friendly. Last night was no exception. Our waitress noted we needed to leave for the theatre just after 7pm and our meal (delicious) arrived very fast.
Staff very friendly and efficient speedy service Food excellent and good value
Food great, staff great. It's always exactly what we want.
I tried the lamb parmentier. An awful dish served in a small preprepared ramekin. 95% potato with very thin layer of lamb at the base The dish also came with a large side dish of carrots At best I would call this mediocre airline fare
Service was good, but food wasn't any better than OK
Excellent evening, even offered us a drink on the house to move tables at the end of our meal which sadly we could not take advantage of as we had a train to catch would certainly recommend
Service, food, excellent. Quality of food & value can't be beaten. Only dislike is noise level but no surprise in such a popular restaurant.
Always a delight to eat at a Cote Restaurant. Great food very reasonably priced. Staff welcoming & professional.
We had a little time as it was pre-west end theatre. We booked in advance and chose the set menu as we had limited time. Very friendly service. The set menu is both good value for money yet still has a nice quality choice different from the alternative bistros of other restaurants.
Great pre dinner menu. Staff lovely and very helpful. Very good value for what we had Surroundings pleasant. Staff knew we were going to the theate so quick service
The restaurant was so close to our theatre so very convenient. The food was delicious, with fast service. Very friendly staff and a lovely buzz about the restaurant.
Dining experience excellent, including food and service. However, the bathroom facilities were very poor. No toilet paper and very smelly.
Lovely food, as always. Good service. Excellent value. Cote is consistently reliable for a great lunch or dinner. A great favourite with us.
The food was good quality with good choice on the set menu, very efficient service (which was ideal for us as it was a ‘Pre-show’ meal)
Very Good - would return again and would certainly recommend
Another smashing evening at Cote B! Lovely atmosphere, the service, by Charlotte, was outstanding. She was charming and efficient. The food overall was good, although, if I’m going to be honest, the pork belly was dry (can’t be perfect all the time)
Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here, food was cooked to perfection.
Lovely table service. soothing went wrong with mains course order, might have been my fault, but all was sorted, and I had super food, very shortly afterward, these things happen. My 2 other dining companions, plus me, (we meet regularly with you) love the foods ,service the the ability to talk without being rushed. The person who looked after us today, was wonderful.
Very good position for theatre dinners and very speedy service we were very impressed especially as the restaurant was full with diners the staff coped very well.
Perfect for a long relaxed lunch with friends. Never felt rushed and staff were happy for us to order drinks after food was finished. Great value 2/3 course lunch menu
Great location & quality food at this price point. Service a little slow to start, but attentive once going. Varied menu, so should suit most palettes.
It is always such a pleasure to return to Cote in Covent Garden. Our recent dining experience was superb. Though plenty of classic French fare is on offer, everything is presented with a fresh new take. The design concepts are impressive, the ingredient combinations enticing, and the flavors just delicious. As well, the waiters were smart, witty, interesting conversationalists, and wonderfully efficient. Always busy and bustling, the charming rooms permit a feeling of intimacy for two even amidst the buzz. Highly recommended for a great dinner out.
Had to send back dodgy mussels that were white not orange, but aside from that all ok. Service was speedy and welcoming. Food pretty tasty,
Excellent meal,good wine,all at a reasonable price.location convenient for the theatre. Varied menu and a good wine list. Order either by the glas or bottle.happy to dine there.
The wooden rail downstairs to the toilets needs replacing. Splinter in hand. Brilliant quick and friendly service ideal for pre- theatre. Cote’s french onion soup always good.
Could not fault the service or the meal. Our waiter was charming and very attentive and worked very hard to make it a very pleasant dinner. We will be back next week!
Staff lovely and coped with our request for slightly different meal's. Will come again when back in London, thank you for everything and the hospitality. Steve
I arrived 10min before the time the table was booked for, and the staff was kind enough to find an available table for me. They were also accommodating to my request of moving to another table in a warmer area of the restaurant. Food was good as per Cote standards. However, our mains were served together with the starters. They were packed, with a long queue of people waiting, pre-theatre meal on Saturday night, so I think they rushed up the service a bit. I would have preferred a calm meal, which is why I chose Cote. But all good still.
We had a really good time, the staff were lovely and everything was perfect for a great meal out celebrating a 30th Birthday. Thank you
Thank you for a fabulous evening. We were well looked after and the food was great! You even threw in a couple of free bottles of fizz for my birthday. We will definitely be coming back again!
Very quick and efficient service. The staff were very friendly. The food was great and excellent value for money. It is in a great location near Covent Garden.
Food was delicious as always and really good value. Friends who had not been before really enjoyed it. I will definetly be eating at Cote again. Thank you.
Left after not being served for 10-15 minutes. Arrived at 12 - half the restaurant empty, but placed within area others still having breakfast. Egg smell and burnt smells. Not particularly appetising. Poor, won’t return.
Lovely food and very decent price. Can’t wait to go back and try different menu items. Good service times and nice members of staff. Happy to recommend.
We were sat in a window seat - a great place to people watch the bustle around Covent Garden. Great atmosphere and delicious food.
It was Fantastic food and service, special touch of complimentary kir royale for birthday , excellent value for money - I would highly recommend this restaurant ...
Lovely atmosphere but felt as though they wanted us out our table was at 1245 we had the prestige menu and 2bottles of wine and drinks as well Overall the food was fabulous
We reserved a table of 6 for a birthday celebration. We received attentive service throughout and food was, as always, great value for money. There was a lively atmosphere but never too loud that we couldn't talk amongst ourselves. An enjoyable lunch!
Excellent food, friendly and efficient staff and fabulous location. Highly recommended The menus are varied and offer the best options for gluten free dietary requirements
We waited a little while for a table and were very pleasantly surprised when the bar staff offered us complementary kir royale whilst we were waiting! It was very busy but the food arrived promptly, and was good quality for the price (as usual). We will definitely visit this branch of Cote again. My only negative comment would be that the toilets downstairs aren't in a great state - cramped and not very clean inside.
I booked a table for 16 guests with the pre theatre menu in the private dining room for a 6pm meal. Everything was ready for us and we enjoyed a thoroughly good evening. The entire restaurant was busy and had a very pleasant atmosphere. We all thought it particularly good value, especially for the postcode and would happily recommend it.
Good service, great menu. Only down side was being close to the main door, so in this really cool period of winter we were all cold.
Our pre-booked party of six were squeezed onto a table for four and I had to move several times to let other people in and out. Food was OK but could have been better.
