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.
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 ...
Great food, friendly helpful staff. We were heading to the theatre and didn't have long, but the food and drink came very quickly and tasted great!
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
There’s Good food, good value and great staff! Enough said.
Very good. My lady said the coffie (americano) was a better taste than Sloane square.
Good friendly service. Quality food. Value for money. Always book all over the country as a result. Love French cuisine. Set menus are the best. Would suggest offering carafes of wine too! Half carafe would have done us, rather than a glass or having a whole bottle
Every time we come to London we always book this restuarant ( first class as always )
From the moment you open the door Friendly staff and a lovely atmosphere Food was delicious too would recommend to friends when visiting London we will certainly be back
Nice meal and I was surprised with a chorus of Happy Birthday ... It was my 75th but I kept quiet about it!! Anyway it was lovely and we blamed family for leaking the news but it turns out it must have been Cote that realised it was my Big day. Nice touch and because of the celebrations we spoke to complete strangers on an adjoining table and ended up being invited to their Hotel in Italy!!! Thank you to all.
The food was great and so was service. Could fault nothing.
Brilliant food nice staff will be eating there again going to Worcester soon
Excellent service, could not fault our young waiter. Overall the prices were good and the food enjoyable. The pear and endive salad was slightly lacking we felt in both pear and croutons. The salmon was perfect. The crepes grand marnier was cold by the time it was served as someone needed to find a lighter. A great pity. A wider selection of ice cream for dessert would also be a bonus. However, we would definitely book again when in London. The toilets down by the kitchen could do with a bit of TLC and it also meant that a fair volume of Anglo Saxon language, presumably from the chef, could be heard when descending and ascending the stairs. Gordon Ramsay has a lot to answer for!
Super evening, great food and service in really good atmosphere. We were going on a short holiday to France the following morning and the best French food we ate all week was in Covent garden- at Cote !!!!
Always very good , whenever in Theatre land i head for Cote . good value for money , good food , friendly staff - don't need anything else
Lovely meal and lovely waitress can’t remember her name but had dark brown/black hair, a lovely smile and red lipstick. Always visit when in Covent gardens x
Party of 8, food served together, hot, and delicious!! Service was great. We were seated at a great table. Thanks so much!! Definitely coming back! Only one small complaint is the cheese board selection is a bit bland and un-exciting.
Good well-cooked food, great service but expensive. Some of the dishes were disappointing in size - 3 small scallops for £10!
Lovely restaurant, the food was good, not great for vegetarians, service was a little slow, which would normally not be a problem, but going to a show after.
Good value for money lunch with efficient and friendly service.
They do pre theatre menus. So perfect for an early dinner. The service is great and the food is too. Great for the price will definitely return
As usual, great value, taste, and service. Will be back,
Speedy and polite service. Good food; steak frites and moules frites plus dessert. Perfect pre- ballet dinner, didn't feel rushed at all. Standard Cote experience.
We pre booked online which was very easy to do. Staff very friendly and attentive with good knowledge about menu. Food very yummy, thank you for a great experience.
Very flavoursome food served by very pleasant young lady. Good service but no feeling of being rushed.
Fabulous place, with really nice staff. The food was truly wonderful, we couldn’t fault anything. I would honestly recommend eating at this restaurant if you enjoy eating good food at a nice restaurant.
Great and friendly service as usual Very busy but we were served promptly and did not feel rushed Still our favourite chain in town and we will be back
Always a great experience at Cote. Value for money, food is great and very polite staff. Well done :)
Good food and service. Restaurant was somewhat noisy but didn't really detract from overall good experience.
Had a great birthday meal welcoming ambience staff were really attentive. Food was absolutely delicious as was the wine.
Food enjoyed,grateful for complimentary cocktail. Thought staff were very impersonal even though restaurant visited many times. Don,t appear to have regular staff. Will return as food was enjoyed.
Great food and service as ever. We love this Côte which never disappoints!
Lovely food and very attentive staff. Never had a bad meal at Cote. The set menu is good value if you don’t add veg. Otherwise, I think you’re better off going a la carte.
The service was second to none on our visit, food was delicious and really good value. We had a really enjoyable evening before our theatre performance. Perfect!
Very good experience at this restaurant with good food, fast and friendly service (we had to get to the opera) and very good value for money. Will certainly go back soon.
Very enjoyable pre-theatre meal served swiftly and very pleasantly. The staff coped well with the pre- theatre crowd. Steak was very correctly cooked to order. Great.
It was a fantastic experience. It was a little chilly in the area near the front windows. Next time we would be asked to sit further at the back. Other than that we had a great time.
Gorgeous food and absolutely excellent service! Will definitely be recommending
