Côte - Covent Garden

Good Service and food good as usual. We often eat here and find the food is consistently good, with some menu variations. Not Rushed either so will be back.

Cote never fail to provide excellent food and a great service. We would recommend the restaurant to other people. The staff are very friendly and helpful

We love going to Cotes but our experience was not very good this time. The service was poor. Once our food was served, we had to wait awhile before the waiter checked up on us. When we asked for something it took a long while before it arrived. The manager though was fantastic. Very apologetic and generous, he gave us desert without charge.

Food and service as great as ever but a rotten table by the door with people with bags pushing up against us etc as we ate.

Whilst the food was very good the service was extremely poor. Not only was it very slow but the staff were not attentive and seemed to have lost the ability to smile.

Table was late but the front of house provided our whole party with some wine. Great food and a nice atmosphere, cant complain at all!

Lovely smiley staff who couldn’t have been more helpful and ensured we had a good dinner and were on time for the theatre. Thank you!

Always find Cote a reliable place for dinner with a varied and interesting menu. The staff are always alert and keen to service their customers quickly and efficiently.

Excellent service, with great food matched with good wine, in the vibrant Covent Garden buzz. and extra thanks for glass of bubbly for my wife's birthday.

Great food and service as we have come to expect from Cote. Our table and many others waiting wasn’t available on time but the maitre d’ was most apologetic and organised for complimentary Kir royals for those waiting. This wasn’t necessary but most appreciated. The cote de boeuf was amazing. Well done all and thank you!

Great food! Great, friendly service! A great way to start the evening. Mousse a la canard was the best. French onion soup was great. Salmon was cooked perfectly.

Restaurant is very noisy and tables are very close together. Service is good. Pre-theatre menu is fine-I had chicken which wasn’t inspired but was adequate.

My friends and I are regulars at Cote. We know we will always get good food and wine and experience excellent service. We were not disappointed!

Good value pre theatre meal. Friendly staff and well cooked food. Decent wine by the glass and bottle. Service a bit erratic at busy times.

Excellent service and food a pleasant surprise and a place to return to time and time again, really delighted that we chose the Côte Covent Garden especially as I had 3 overseas guests with me. Perfect wine and staff.

Very nice a la carte lunch and we really enjoy the complimentary bottle of wine that we got thanks to one of Cote email offers. Great value!

The service was very good and prompt for a pre theatre dinner. The food Had good price deals. I was disappointed at first they had changed the menu so no fish cakes but the I had hake and. It was excellent.

I booked at the Covent Garden Cote in Tavistock street 4.30pm Table was ready BUT the position of the chair was next to a step down, where Waiters were dashing by with their food trays held above ones head... I considered it was a possible dangerous place to sit, certainly too worrying for a nice meal. On request we were re-seated comfortably in a different section of the place, , there were lots of empty tables at that time. I feel it is a problem to consider safety when you want to seat all your clients wishing a nice place to eat.

I frequent various Cote's and am never disappointed. Food served, is always of a good standard. Staff are always professional. My meal today with family and friend was, as always, enjoyable.

Sadly the chicken and pork your slightly disappointing. There was no crackling on the pork and the skin of the chicken wasn’t crispy either. The starters were all well received. Overall a nice meal but having been 3 times before this didn’t deliver to the same standards I have had before. Will I be back? Yes

Always a most enjoyable& pleasant experience. Good value and top quality food. Staff friendly and attentive despite a full and bustling restaurant. We always book at Cote and never disappointed.

Wee both enjoyed our meals very much, definitely very good value. Staff extremely friendly & helpful. Will definitely visit when next in London. Recommended it to my son who lives in London

First class service, very friendly waitress, pre theatre menu extensive ,food delicious and well presented, very reasonably priced and no rushing to get you out even though other customers were queuing for tables

We Really enjoyed our dinner at Cote. Quality food and excellent atmosphere. Outstanding service!

Really nice restaurant. They serve delicious food. I like their set menu. You won’t find a better deal in London. £13.95 for 3 courses. Love it!

Excellent food so reasonably priced for London. Service was good but I did not like it when the waitress opened our bottle of wine, poured a taster for my husband then sniffed the bottle! Will someone give training that it is the cork which may be passed under the nose, not nose to top of bottle! By coincidence we dined at the Cote in Bristol the following evening, and meal, again, excellent. Our first introduction to this chain of restaurants. Would definitely recommend.

A very enjoyable meal with a good choice of food which is value for money. The service as usual, is very attentive from the staff of Cote Brasserie.

Food was good as usual but service was a bit haphazard: we had a long wait (crowded into a very small entrance area) for our table and had to remind our enthusiastic but busy waitress of our order a couple of times. Overall a good experience though.

Great location off your going to one of the many theatres around Covent Garden. Excellent staff, attentive and happy. Restaurant and facilities were all clean.

Everything was good, exceptional service, great food, lovely ambience, affordable cost, good location, good menu. Couldn't fault. Will be back. A lot better value for money than many other restaurants.

Disappointed that despite being there for a meal pre-theatre, our waiter failed repeatedly to bring our bill on time. We finished our meal at 7 and finally, after asking repeatedly both before and after we'd finished our meal, my partner had to go to the till to pay. That was at nearly 720. That was AFTER our waiter had seen me leave the restaurant to go pick up our tickets at 7. Needless to say just being nice isn't enough to earn a tip. I'd be wary of going there again before a show.

Good overall value pre-theatre menu with a free drink as part of our ticket. Food and service were good and very pleasant and efficient staff.

There is an excellent pre-theatre menu which is very good value for money. Service is friendly and efficient. Cote is a superb addition to the London line-up of restaurants.

We love Cote in Tavistock Street! Excellent service and delicious food and I received my complimentary bottle of wine 😀 Highly recommend this restaurant when visiting London.

It was a bit noisy but the food and staff were excellent. I visit Cote all over the country as I know the the food is always excellent.

Good friendly service, very good menu and food quality. Pleasant , busy ambience, ideal pre-theatre dinner venue to meet up with friends/family, convenient locality for theatre.

Good service, very good value for money. Free rewards bottle of wine fantastic!.Highly recommend joining loyalty scheme. Menu choice very good. Consistently very good value for money.

Another excellent meal. Attentive service. Reasonable prices. Menu variation through seasonal specials. Good quality food, well prepared and presented. highly recommended. Cote is always dependable.

Turned away from restaurant as we were 15 minutes early and told to come back later. Very busy as always but staff could not cope. We had no cutlery and it took ages until we got ketchup and mayo. Food wad was very good

We informed them that we needed to leave by 7pm to catch a show (we arrived at 5.45pm) and so wanted to order/eat quickly. We ordered from the pre-theatre menu, while our starters arrived promptly, our mains didn't arrive until 6.50pm, meaning we had to rush our main courses in 10 minutes. Further, we had to ask them where our mains was rather than them coming to apologise for the delay. Terrible customer service for such a well known restaurant. They did however apologise after, once we had made a fuss about needing to leave. I realise they were busy, but an established restaurant ought to have sufficient staff to manage customers and orders.

We had a lovely evening, food was excellent, fish perfectly cooked. Service attentive and friendly. Only minor complaint, restaurant was very warm. Otherwise, surprisingly good all round! Look forward to returning.

Our waitress was amazing and so was the food!!! I will most definitely be back. Staff accommodated my many food allergies with no issues at all.

We were at a table near the door, so got an icy blast every time someone came in. The first course arrived in good time, but we waited a very long time for the main course. To this end, we did not have time for a dessert, which was disappointing. However, the management did apologise and gave us a complimentary bottle of wine.

Restaurant was very busy but the service was excellent and we didn't have to wait long for our food. We will certainly go there again soon

Overall bill was expensive given that we went for the pre theatre set menu. So, I think you must be charging for drinks. Very noisy restaurant but service very good.

Food and atmosphere were great, with attentive staff. The restaurant was let down by the facilities. The ladies was blocked and could have done with a good clean.

Great meal as always, pre theatre always good, great speedy service and good quality food, amazing value overall, will certainly be back in the coming weeks,

Excellent food; great value; very friendly and welcoming service. We visit Cote regularly as you really can't beat the value for money combined with quality food. They even charged my friend's phone.

Value for money was excellent as was venue. My chicken was overlooked but ok. Service was quite rushed - we were in and out in 30 minutes. Could have done with a less hurried meal particularly as when we got there only 2 other tables were occupied.

We had a lovely pre- theatre dinner, food was very good, service a bit slow but staff polite and friendly. Would definitely recommend to others.
