What a perfect place to celebrate my birthday. Sitting in the sunshine with a view of a strangely uncrowded St.Paul's Cathedral eating delicious food and with great service. Highly recommend this place for a great experience. Am sure I'll be back before too long.

Excellent, welcoming staff - cv19 cleaning and appropriate measures also appear to have been catered for... Had a wee bit of a buzz about it, quite a few customers with quite a bit of free space. Enjoyed our meals, too.

This is an area of London well known to me as I worked in Fleet Street for many years but I have never eaten at this restaurant before. We chose it on a visit into the City from the countryside where we now live. The restaurant was strategically placed for our visit to Tate Modern and later the theatre near Charing Cross. The location enabled us to avoid the hoardes of theatre diners while easily being able to get a bus to the theatre after.... The restaurant was quite busy and had a nice atmosphere. The staff couldn't do enough for you. They were helpful, quick and efficient We ordered from a set menu as we felt it offered good value. We both chose calamari for starters and were pleasantly surprised as it wasn't cooked in the usual over fried batter but in breadcrumbs. Plenty of it too. We followed this up with a seafood spaghetti. Again, plenty of it and tasty. We resisted the desserts but did have a glass of wine with our meal. Would recommend this restaurant for lunch or supper. Well done everyone. A pleasant and surprising experience for a cynical ex Londoner who finds London restaurants generally over priced and not very good. Just one word of warning, if you have mobility difficulties you would find it difficult to access the toilets down a spiral staircase and then a walk along a corridor. Unless they have a toilet upstairs that I don't know about

As usual great dining experience at Côte. Starters were brought quickly and the mains were served perfectly. Only slight issue for me personally was that we were downstairs and I found it a very noisy environment and I struggled to hear my colleagues.

We arrived early. We were welcomed by staff and offered a choice of table. Service was excellent, the food was thoroughly enjoyed by all three of us (two of whom are not easy to please). There was no pressure, time between courses and a warm farewell when we left. It really is excellent value for money

I took my friends here who were visiting London as I had previously had a great experience at the Cote Oxford Circus. I can whole heartedly say the experience at the Cote St Paul's was not as great. I had an email offering a free Martini, when we arrived this was spilt on our table. No offer was made to clear it up. We had to ask to have the martini cleaned off the table. We ordered the warm bread for before our starter, it was brought in a basket for the three of us but without plates and then the waiter disappeared, so we could not ask for plates or cutlery and had to eat the bread from our hands before it went cold. All evening the waiter was inattentive and cold. This was in such contrast to the experience I had at Oxford Circus, I was embarrassed that I had invited my friends. Dissatisfied and won't suggest to friends again.

The food was not good. I had salmon and side of beans. Beans had definitely been microwaved and the fish had a weird smell and had been over cooked. Salmon should be soft and flakey. The ratatouille has no flavour and I had to cover in salt. Overall very disappointed as the Cote in Sloane Square where i work is usually good so I expected the same quality!

We all enjoyed our meal at Cotes St Paul's. The service was excellent. The waiters were very attentive and polite and made us feel very comfortable. I had the Swordfish from the Special menu and I must say it was delicious. As an added bonus we sampled the Blood Orange cocktails .They were a real treat. We will definitely go there again.

The Côte Brasserie in St Paul's was terribly disappointing and I would not recommend this one at all. The seating area on the lower ground floor was quite spacious but, unfortunately, the service from the waiters was appalling. The main courses were very disappointing. The chicken was tasteless, the mussels were poor and the thin fries weren't hot.

We enjoyed our meal when we got it but the service was very slow. Also it worked out expensive with the 12 1/2 percent service charge. Would sooner give my own amount. This is becoming more frequent now and making me think twice about what Restaurants I visit.

We sat down in a good spot and ordered an "aperitif" from the menu. It arrived quite promptly but I had a few sips and new something was up. My gin and tonic tasted of aniseed. I was so surprised and had to find a staff member to return it and explain. They apologised and explained that the measure for my gin had been used for Ricard or Pernod immediately prior. Whilst returning my aniseed gin and tonic, our starters arrived together with our bottle of wine which was opened and placed in an ice bucket. This was done before we could see that the wine was the wrong choice. My wife had only just begun her aperitif. As the wine had arrived with the food there was no need to order a replacement gin and tonic as the meaning of and time for an aperitif was past. It turned out the wine was not right and we had to ask for that to be replaced. At that point we felt uncomfortable and hurried; we had not been allowed to have a pre-dinner drink as we'd planned and ordered. Whilst we were trying to, we had the bottle of wine opened and plonked in an ice bucket before we could see it was the wrong wine - the restaurant kindly changed the wine but it was a shame to have wasted the first bottle. The starters were what we expect of Cote but enjoyment overtaken by changing the G&T and then the wine. When our mains arrived, we ate them with the wine we had ordered and then asked for the bill, paid and left as it had not been a relaxing experience.
