The restaurant were beyond kind marking my birthday with free kir royal and a free dessert which was delicious. Thanks so much Côte Soho for a great time.
I was here to celebrate my granddaughter's birthday - an excellent choice with exceptional service and vibrant atmosphere. The unexpected climax was the arrival with the dessert of a candle and the singing of the birthday song by several waiters and waitresses. My granddaughter was delighted - and so was I!
Lovely service, delicious as always at Cotes. One of my favourite Cotes, definitely one to visit in W1. Chicken is a safe bet, always tasty and the garlic bread is lovely.
The food was excellent. We all had the luncheon special menu. Great choices. Miguel, our waiter, was probably the most attentive, friendly and knowledgeable staff member that I have ever met at a Cote. He should be commended.
A nice friendly welcome, our waitor did everything he could do to make our meal special, which was great as we were celebrating our Anniversary, but he did not know this. He kindly held back our mains as my son and wife had not arrived at the restaurant as they were in another cote not too far away by mistake. All the food was amazing as usual, and really enjoyed the special Gin cocktail of the month. The Pork dish special was so yummy. The crepe suzette came out alight and was delicious.
Food (chicken) was very tasty, complimentary cocktail delicious and service excellent. Great location for Soho and very reasonably priced. Will certainly be back very soon. Recommend for pre theatre.
Allowing the fact that the restaurant is in Soho, the waiting staff were surly although MD was welcoming. Food was average but I have had much better at other Cote restaurants. Unlikely to use the Soho branch again
Birthday celebration. Staff were excellent, very thoughtful and accommodating. Well done
Fantastic gluten free menu, really appreciated the extra effort to make sure it's safe for coeliacs like me. The food was excellent and the service was wonderful. We'll definitely be coming back.
Overall a lovely restaurant experience as usual. Our waiter was charming and happy to let us spend a long evening catching up at our own pace. I had a free bottle of wine as a special offer which was good. We enjoyed the bread and olives and both main courses were tasty however my lamb had a fair amount of gristle and the sea bass should have come with potatoes at £15. Dessert and coffee excellent and we will definitely return.
Excellent expected Cote service and food. A little short staffed, slow service, but complimentary glass of wine much appreciated. We have eaten at Cote in several locations across the UK. Well done.
I only had one bad experience but the management acted very fast to regain my trust in a great restaurant with welcoming and very professional staff. I visit Cote A lot and it’s remarkable when staff recognise this with a warm greeting. The food is amazing and I’m back at least once a week with different friends who have now become regulars too.
Hi When we had lunch, we asked for a large glass of wine. The wine arrived and it was very small. We queried it and were told that this was 250ml. That definitely was not true. We also ordered bread, it looked like the ends of a loaf. Very small. It was not the usual standard you would expect from Cote. Also, we ordered filet steak. It which was tough. There was also. confusion with the meal. We noticed our food went to another table. It turned up but it Tasted ok but tough. It wasn’t a great experience. We’ve been to Cote Soho numerous times, but we will most likely not return until the food and service improves. Regards Paul Toomey
Having eaten in the Guildford Cote branch we had expected a really nice experience in the Soho branch on Saturday evening, but we were very very disappointed!! It was really bad. 1/ Food was served far too quickly. Not exactly a relaxing 3 course meal!! 2/ Starter Portion of moules was very small! 3/ Peppercorn sauce with steak tasted like washing up liquid!. It was changed and we were advised that we would not be charged for replacement sauce!! 4/ Chicken in Breton meals (2) was dry. Don't think we'll be going back anytime soon! Poor review will follow on Tripadvisor, Google etc. Richard Baird
The atmosphere was very relaxed even though it was busy and the food was good quality and reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and cheerful. I will definitely be back.
Experience with as great from meet and greet through to leaving no table experience was great!
Good value pre theatre food with good service and convenient
I really enjoyed the the three course meal. It was full of flavour and very tasty. The portions were very good and the service was excellent. The ambiance is good and I was left having a very good experience. One thing I would like to add is that I've eaten at cotes on many occasions now and the soho branch is my favourite. I do think it time to revamp the menu as it doesn't seem to have changed at all over the last couple of years. Being a French barsserie I think they could move more with the sessionss and have some specials together with the house menu. After speaking with friends who also enjoy Cotes they all have said the same thing. TIME TO REVAMP THE MENU.
Never had a bad meal at Cote anywhere in the Country and Wardour Street is one of the best
Excellent, especially the knowledge and service given to one of our group who is coeliac. Staff were friendly and efficient, food and service very good. Overall an enjoyable experience.
Excellent choice for a pre-theatre dinner. The service was very good as was the food. A good variety of choices on the early-evening set menu which suited both me and my daughter. The service was prompt but perhaps almost too quick with the mains after our starters. Good portion size. Perhaps a bit of bread with starters would have been nice. A really nice offer with the theatre tickets was a complimentary Kir Royale and a non-alcoholic version for my daughter! Had a great time!
Food was good and staff were good and overall it was good. Good stuff all around. I thought the attitude and customer service of the staff was good too.
The food, as always, was delicious. Our server was attentive, kind and personable which I find othe restaurants lack! Despite it being busy food and drinks came out in an expected amount of time. I would absolutely recommend!
A warm welcome from the moment we walked in. Friendly efficient service, staff very attentive and helpful. Food arrived promptly, wonderful breakfast. Would highly recommend. Thank you.
We use Cote on a regular basis so the fact we return soften is testament to how well we regard it. The food has always been good, and the staff are quite attentive (as in not too little, but not too much either) and have always been pleasant. There is a fair amount of choice between plats rapides and a la carte, and pre-theatre menus etc. It can be very busy at the pre-theatre time, but find a slot outside of this and the atmosphere is perfect: there are always people in, but it is not so noisy as to make conversation difficult. There are many branches of Cote and we would always turn to it as a reliable source of good food for an evening meal.
Fantastic evening - great service, great food and really good value. Thank you for making my wife's birthday so good.
Your team in Soho are amazing! So welcoming, friendly and happy! Food incredible every time too! Thank you.
Tasty food and good service. Food value pre theatre menu. I always enjoy the risotto and creme caramel. Just found it difficult at times to hear my friend sat opposite me as the noise level was too loud.
We had the Mother’s Day brunch with champagne. As always, this Côte greets you with a personal and warm welcome, has great food, attentive service and wonderful ambience.
Service and staff amazing fully accommodating of our needs. Highly recommend for all things suprise. Also massive thanks to the chefs. The food was spot on.
Great food and service and good value. Bit noisy and warm
Great food Excellent service Lovely staff Good atmosphere Good value for money x
Great place to have lunch to catch up with an old friend, food is great, service impeccable, and good value for money. The only minor downside is tables are close to each other, so if someone is bit too loud, can be irritating.
We’ve been to different branches of Cote and the food and service never disappoint.
Friendly staff and the food was great as in every Cote I've been too. Particular highlight today was the Rhubarb martini, delicious.
Decent chain and a good meal pre/post show. Easy access to Shaftesbury Avenue. 12,5% service charge is excessive ut that is standard in London, these days. Xxx xx xx xx
The food and service is always wonderful! We like the soho branch when we come into London.
Great meal and great value as per usual. I visit Cote all the time
Nice atmosphere and excellent service from the waiter, however my husbands meal came out completely cold, which was a shame. The waiter took the meal away and we had to wait for it to be re-heater.
Thank you ever so much for our lovely meal to celebrate 3 birthdays and a baby shower! The service was amazing (thanks to our waiter Miguel Gomez) who was attentive and super friendly, you were all so lovely and made us feel very valued. The food was amazing - we particularly enjoyed the way you made us feel extra special for our celebrations. We thoroughly recommend and will be back soon!
The food is very good and great value for money. We were offered a complimentary gin and tonic which was very nice. The service is very good. The only problem with all Cote restaurants I have been in is that the noise level is high but it was better at Soho with more partitions.
Very attentive service from the beginning; menus with us, and water at the table, very quickly. Food- as ever at Cote - was well cooked and with generous portions. Thank You!
Excellent food, lovely service and brilliant value! Three of us had the set menu. Was particularly impressed with the staff who made us feel very welcome. Will come again!
Great food as always and friendly service from Miguel! We had a wonderful afternoon there and would visit again.
Another fabulous visit to, what has to be, the best Cote chain I have been to. I have been dining at Cote for 6 years now and have been to Soho every month for the last 4 years, as well as dining at various other locations. The food, staff and ambience makes an evening into a great evening! The Manager here is first class, as well as their team of fab staff! I cannot recommend this venue and chain any more highly!! :-)
Absolutely amazing place in heart of SOHO with great atmosphere, amazing staff and lovely and delicious food. Food is absolutely not overpriced and everything served with highest standards. Best place to eat lunch/dinner with friends or organise birthday. Looking forward to visit restaurant again.
A Lovely meal with a complimentary free birthday drink and a charming waiter...... what more do you need.... and such good value Thanks Cote great !
I decided to take my parents to Cote Soho on Sunday evening to conclude their weekend in London before they go back to France. The food was excellent as usual and tasted as good if not better than in France! The kir, negroni and wine were lovely too! A big thank you to Guerino and Tamara for making us feel so welcome and for being so friendly, attentive, nice, funny and so professional! I am already looking forward to my next visit to Cote Soho!
Amazingly yummy tasty food & beautifully presented. Fantastic service by a very smiley, happy waitress. Nothing was too much trouble, they went above & beyond to make the whole experience wonderful. Would recommend Cote to anyone & would definitely go back again, Thank you
Excellent meal. Great service. Table close to entrance. Cold evening. We could feel the cold air each time the door opened. A pity. A real pity. Table was ready fifteen minutes later than the time we had booked it.
