Cote is the perfect spot for a quick bite before a show. Great service, value for money and pleasant atmosphere. Recommended! Menu has something for everyone and drinks menu is substantial

Our lunch was excellent. My wife had the cod goujons and I had the moules in white wine and cream. The mussels were large and beautiful to eat. We had chocolate mousse and a crepe for dessert. The glass of Saumur wine was a perfect accompaniment to the meals. The whole meal and the service made it a memorable prelude to a matinee at the Savoy theatre.

Great restaurant after having been to theatre - not too many people due to the late hour we were in there. Service not too attentive, but the food was great and well presented.

Great food at a great price - had a lovely evening catching up with friends. The only reason I didn’t give 6 stars is because there was a mix up with our order. Will definitely visit again.

Great food, quick service, nice atmosphere. We booked but were late, had a nice table by the window. Good choice of food. We did have to ask for our deserts to hurry up as we were going to the theatre and they then arrived promptly , very friendly staff.

The food was tasty and most of the food came out very promptly which was handy as we were very pressed for time as was pre-theatre meal. However side orders came out when we had almost finished the mains and there was no apology. I would have deducted some tip but that was included so had no option there.

We were greeted by a lovely lady who was more than happy to squat on the floor to take a photograph of 7 ladies enjoying their pre-theatre meal. The portions were generous in size and the meals were delicious. The customer service was first class and we will be recommending you to our friends.

Once again a super evening at Cote Covent Garden after Don Quixote with the Royal Ballet at the ROH. Delicious escalope de veau and fresh salmon with ratatouille, just perfect. To finish, the best Creme Caramel ever. Great atmosphere and excellent service. Voila !

Great service, great food. My wife is coeliac and we know we can always relax when we come to Cote. We also got a seat in the window which, in the Covent Garden / Theatre area, was fun watching the passing people & goings on. The pork belly was gorgeous.

Had booked a table which is essential. Good service. Reasonable food. Very squashed in an extremely busy restaurant. We were sat by door so cold. The door arrangements need sorting. Toilets very shabby.

I returned here after 3 years, as the 1st experience was excellent & I subsequently recommended the restaurant to several other people. This time, the food was not as good and the service very hurried. I realise that it was pre-theatre but so was my first visit. It was evident that tables of more than 2 persons, were given more time between courses.

In London for two days to celebrate my birthday. Went to Cote Brasserie Covent Garden on 14 Feb pre theatre and had a brilliant meal. Complementary blood orange martinis because we booked in advance and ordered from the a la carte menu. My hubby had cod goujons and two bottles of Meteor beer. I had Duck breast with dauphinois potatoes and carrots with a glass of red house wine. We shared Coupe noir ( vanilla ice cream with hot chocolate sauce) - which was amazing. Very good service- thank you

Lovely food served piping hot and without delay, coupled with excellent friendly service. Prices were higher than usual but that's London for you ! The 12.5% service charge, albeit optional, is not popular with small groups of diners though personally it amounts to less than I would normally tip got good service anyway.
