Lunchtime menu good value and good service. Good location in heart of West End. No problem with recommending this restaurant - one of the best ones in this chain.
Great food, great service and great value, particularly the early evening set menu. I'm been to at least five different Cote restuarants and the overall quality in consistent.
Always great value for money and excellent food. Waiter got our order wrong even though he asked twice what we wanted meaning we had to rush the meal as long wait to right meals to arrive. But this was just a hiccup as normally I don't have any issue with cote.
Great food and service. A bit too noisy atmosphere. Good selection on both the food menu and the drink menu. Can highly recommend the duck.
Great atmosphere, a comprehensive menu with something for everyone, good quality food in terms of presentation, taste, portion and value, lovely service with attentive and professional yet warm and friendly staff.
The restaurant's manager was amazing: a lovely person, with a warm character and superb communications skills. The bond grew stronger when we communicated in our respective mother's and father's tongues. She offered us a bottle of proseco and white wine for not being able to accommodate a special request of ours. The food was good and the service was nice, too. Thanks for making last evening memorable. See you soon.
It was very busy in the downstairs section and it seemed understaffed with one waiter attending to a full section of pre theatre diners. Our waiter Ryan clearly had his hands full but he managed to give everyone very friendly and attentive personal service, despite clearly being busy he found time to chat and made dining at Cote a real pleasure - he was interested in his customers - a real star!
Really varied menu. Great good as always. Staff always excellent and friendly. Lunch this time but have eaten breakfast and dinner at Cote Wardour. Fantastic for social or business dining.
Quick, helpful service - the pre-theatre deal is very good value for money and perfect portion sizes. Would definately come back. Our waitress was very nice and friendly and even though we lingered for ages after our meal and the restaurant was busy we were not made to feel they were in any hurry for our table.
Outstanding value, great service, super ambiance, lovely food and wine. My favourite restaurant in the chain. It really is hard to find better value in London.
An excellent restaurant with lovely food and superb and helpfull staff. Like all other Cote restaurants I use they are great value and some of the best.
Food is quite nice.We had the pre theater meal and so the choices are limited but the four dishes we ordered were plentiful and tasty. The service was very nice as well.
Cote often send deals which I don't often use but tonight I decided to have a pre-theatre meal and use my free bottle of wine deal but the staff there seem to want to accept it! Why give people deals if you don't actually want them to use them?
Food was excellent and staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Only thing I would object to (and it is a little thing) is that a charge is made for a basket of bread but customers are just asked if they would like bread, not told there is a charge. The bread was delicious and it was only a small charge of £2.40 but most restaurants, especially in France, provide bread free of charge.
Good quality french dining with friendly staff. Would particularly recommend the fillet steak. It is safer to book for pre-theatre hours though as it can get busy.
Went here for a pre theatre lunch. Good value for London. Nice food. Friendly staff. Got very busy so had to wait for our bill but other than that we enjoyed it.
Food was fine but was met with indifference when we queried where one of the sides we ordered went. Got a vague suggestion it was on the way but never arrived. Mentioned again when the plates were cleared and item was still on the bill. Bit disappointing; have been here before without issue.
Cote Brasserie is a restaurant I keep going back to. They offer a great range of French dishes at affordable prices. The set menu is excellent value and the ever changing range of dishes on offer is inventive, fresh, seasonal and very well prepared. The staff are very welcoming and professional and, unlike other brasserie style restaurants I've visited, at Cote you never feel hurried. The food is great quality and they have an extensive and well priced wine list with several selections available by the glass. The restaurant has a great atmosphere thanks to eclectic mix of diners and the enthusiastic and personable staff. Heartily recommended for either group or solo dining.
The food, as always, was good and good value. The service was slow, especially considering it was in the pre-theatre slot (which was why we were there) and felt detached and impersonal (not our usual experience with Cote)
Very good service and food as always good too. Become a bit of a regular at Cote ... always recommend a visit to a Cote
Cote never fails to provide fine food at an exceptionally reasonable price. The staff are trained to be both friendly and efficient. Our default go to restaurant for pre west end theatre.
We had a nice table. There was a good choice on the menu and the food was very tasty. The service was excellent and all at a fair price.
The food was cooked perfectly. The service was good and with a smile. Good ambiance and not sat on the next table too. Toilets clean and serviced. Value for money, excellent.
The customer service was very very good. We were a group of 5 and all ordered a main. 4 arrived together while one arrived 30 minutes later. One of my friend had black pepper allergy and he clearly asked for a sirloin without pepper. It arrived full of pepper so we asked to replace it, the waiter was really nice and helpful and he promptly took the plate and ordered for another one. The staff was very helpful and they apologise for the delay and the mistake. I would say I rate the staff 6 for their customer care but the kitchen 3 for their not great time organisation and compliance with customer request. It was a Friday evening so I can relate these problems to the fact that the restaurant was full. Food was great, well seasoned and perfectly cooked. I had the fish stew that was tasty and very enjoyable, and a tarte au citron that was absolutely delicious, not too sweet, very well balanced. Price in line with the quality of food.
Food was lovely, but was put in a back area so felt a bit left out. Would go back again but would make sure we were in the main restaurant.
This is a lovely place to go. The staff are wonderful, the food is very good and the ambience is perfect. I will definitely return.
Lovely meal with great service from the staff especially Claudia. The menu options are consistently good and varied at Cote. Will be back again soon.
Big restaurant. Not very busy at 1pm but as usual food was good. Just what to be expected from Cote. I will definitely book again if going to the theatre in the area.
Great food, lovely polite helpful smiley waitress. Not too noisy, enough space between tables. Time to eat and chat without feeling rushed. Excellent all round
Poor level of service - left for a long time at each stage of the meal - failed to bring parts of order, carrots, mustard - had to eat desserts independently as brought at 15 minute intervals! Quite amusing but not great for the price - won't bother again
Value for food was excellent. Services was good aswell. Great for lunch - specially if it is a slow lunch you are looking for, relax and chill! They have good menu.
Spacious seating; not overcrowded or noisy. Brunch menu excellent value and gave plenty of options. Staff pleasant but service SO SLOW. My americano went cold as I waited for milk that I had to ask for twice before it eventually arrived.
My friend's first choice on the menu was not available, which we were not told in advance but the food and service were consistently good.
A well situated (for theatres, etc) place to eat and the food was perfectly cooked and good value. The ambient music was a good choice but we did feel it was uncomfortably loud. It may not bother some people and by removing our hearing aids it was just about bearable. For this reason alone, we probably would not return. I am a little concerned that, in the long term, the friendly and helpful young staff may suffer hearing damage.
We visited for a pre-theatre lunch and chose from the lunch set menu. I started with air-dried pork with celeriac remoulade, which was light and tasty, while my husband enjoyed salt cod croquettes. For mains we both chose the steak with frites, which were excellent. I usually opt for the fish but was not keen on the fish dish offered on the current menu. For desserts neither of us could resist the chocolate pots, which are divine! The service was excellent as always.
Great food, with amazing service! Cote Soho will continue to be one of our favourites, great selection of specials which were delicious. Thank you Team Soho!
Good value 3 course set menu. Tasty menu, good choice of seasonal dishes. Friendly speedy service. Ideal for pre-theatre dinner, e.g. at Prince Edward Theatre which is 3 blocks away. The chocolate pot dessert is a delight for chocoholics!
Great place to eat. Quality of the food was really good - we ate off the lunch menu. Service was fantastic. We would highly recommend.
Service was extremely slow. We all ordered from the pre theatre 2 course menu, with 6 of us ordering starters and 1 ordering dessert at the time of the waitress taking our orders. 1 main course was cold and had to be sent back. My steak was cold but was too hungry to send it back, plus when the first main was sent back, the waitress looked annoyed so I didn't want to give mine. After we finished, the lady who had already pre ordered her dessert waiting 30 minutes for her dessert. We had to flag down the waitress. The waitress then said she had put dessert menus on the table to see if anyone else had wanted dessert, but she didn't make herself clear when doing so, nor did she come back to ask us if anyone else wanted dessert before she put through the already ordered one. She was pretty useless and rude, and sadly I won't be going back to the branch of Cote because of it.
Such a lovely friendly warm welcome, a great start to a very enjoyable meal. The pre theatre menu has a tasty and healthy selection. Top class service and delicious food as always.
Another great evening at Cote. Pre-theatre theatre menu. The best value in central London. Great choice of starters and Mains. The sweet was lovely. House wine was also perfect.
Very good food, good friendly service and the ambience was great. Very good value for money - I would definitely go back to this restaurant.
warm welcome - good service - made a real effort to help us celebrate an 18th birthday! excellent set menu - great value for money
I greatly enjoyed a leisurely lunch and would happily return. The headines were these - Super friendly staff, choice of table, excellent good value food.
Cote is good value for the 2 or 3 course Monday to Frifay early dinner menu until 7pm. Best to book in advance. Staff are always friendly.
We ordered from the pre-theatre menu which was excellent value for money. Food was tasty and decent portion sizes for a set menu. Service was good, efficient and friendly.
Delicious food, exceptional service and the pre-theatre menu is tremendous value!! Delighted to have found this gem in the heart of Soho. Will definitely be back!
We had a very pleasant quick pre theatre meal. Service and food was good and speedy. Nothing more to add to this for a 45 minute meal
We went to Cote for a pre theatre meal. The food was good and staff were very helpful in making sure everything was prompt so we could leave on time,
Very friendly staff who were welcoming and attentive at a busy time of the day. First time of eating from set menu. Was surprised at the good value and choice. Top marks for Peach Crumble.
