This is our go to place pre theatre. The Soho branch is convenient for many shows and the seasonal set menu is good quality and excellent value. Yesterday we were pleased with the meal although they seemed short staffed and we had to forgo dessert because of long waits between courses. It can get noisy during busy evening periods but it is deservedly popular.

Very good food. Service was a bit patchy but they were very busy. I would recommend this branch of a cote to family and friends.

Lovely food, great service & very friendly. There was a mix up with the menu - the vegetarian menu is not part of the 2 course or 3 course meal deal. This wasn't made clear. Otherwise very good.

An attractive outlook on the edge of Soho. Excellent staff as always, and very good value set meal. Superb vichyssoise, tasty sea-bass and nice chocolate mousse. Highly recommended.

Service and food was excellent. However, when selecting the set menue a lunchtime would prefer that staff advise guests that bread, olives, vegetables etc etc are extra. Whilst appreciating there would be extra charges, From a £13.95 meal it became double pp ( nearly £30.00 pp) without alcohol!

We had pre theatre lunch here and it was very enjoyable. They have a pre- theatre menu or you could choose from the A La Carte . Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Not the best evening at Côte. Firstly, after about 5 minutes waiting, we had to ask if we could order some drinks. We then ordered food and my husband ordered cold Vichyssoise - it arrived hot and we were then told that, despite it being on the menu, there was no cold Vichyssoise. Another in our party ordered the couscous with a piece of chicken on top. When it arrived it was just plain couscous - not with all the other ingredients that were on the menu. My husband ordered a second bottle of wine, but it took so long to arrive, we had to cancel it (we were going to the theatre and so had a deadline). However the manageress realised the problems that we had had and gave us desserts and coffee on the house and was very apologetic. This was the first time we have had an experience like this despite numerous visits to many of your outlets.

The food was good as always in a Cote. However the service was achingly slow. The pleasant waitress kept making the excuse that there was a large party downstairs that had held up the kitchen, yet the main restaurant was only half full! I'm not a fool. And neither were some other diners who cancelled their order and left. Not what I expect from Cote. Probably an aberration, but sort it out!

Very poor. Ordered from the pre theatre menu. 70 minutes later only had a starter. Chased the main course. One of the main courses delivered to the table was wrong, corrected but both mains were just warm. In the end had to miss dessert. Don't advertise a pre theatre menu if you can't deliver in time for people to get to the theatre.

The food is generally very good at a cote Brasserie. My main course, which was the May special, was delicious but the chef could have improved it by cutting off the lower, tougher parts of the asparagus s/he used. Furthermore, heating the apple tarts are delicious, but heating them in a microwave oven does make the pastry soggy!! I take it that the main ovens are kept hot in restaurants while food is served. Why not popping pastry desserts which need warming through in a main oven for 3 - 4 minutes?

The restaurant was very nicely laid out. We were met at the door with a smile and given a choice of tables. We were dining relatively early, at 5:30pm before the a theatre show at 7:30 and were out in plenty of time to spare. The food was very nice, the service throughout the meal was great and all in all great value for money. Would use it again if at the theatre near by.

Good atmosphere, busy but not too noisy. The pre-theatre meal was very good value and tasty and the staff were very obliging as some of our party were late arriving and then had to rush through their meal to get to the theatre. Those of us not going to the theatre stayed on happily- no pressure to leave.

The food was ok. The service was a little too slow. Biggest problem is the noise. As commented on recently in the media, restaurant noise is becoming a problem because of the use of hard furnishings. Because of this we would not choose to return to this restaurant.
