Thank you for an excellent dining experience last night (Wednesday 2/10). The service was very friendly, attentive and quick and the food was excellent from start to finish and at a good price. I'll have no problem recommending KOHA restaurant to friends and family.

Service was lovely but the food was very over priced for what it was. But perhaps that’s unavoidable for a west end restaurant….

Only had one course - the duck and it was sensational. Special shout out to the staff who were just the right amount of attentive (this skill is lacking in most restaurants. Will definitely return and highly recommend this to others.

We booked an outside table and our train was 30 mins late arriving in London. I called and they were totally relaxed and we got our table. We had a fabulous waiter and delicious food for lunch. We chose the beetroot carpaccio and squid as starters and we shared the sea bass main course (quite pricey at £35.00) but it was delicious, beautifully cooked albeit a very small portion. Highly recommended.

Very reduced menu,should show this on website. This would be more acceptable if food was special, I had fish and chips,fish was dry and better from my local takeaway. Sorry to leave this review but i was in London with my daughter for a treat and I picked this restaurant because of the good reviews and I wanted it to be special

We have been before and looked forward to it very much. The food was delicious as always and service attentive and friendly as always, even charging a phone for us. The only downside was due to building works so entering was confusing as we had not been informed of this and had to sit downstairs which was dark and did not have the usual lovely atmosphere. Also due the building, the menu was reduced which caused disappointment for my friends who had decided from the one online. We look forward to going again when the upstairs is finished.

The restaurant is being refurbished and they weren't really ready to reopen, but they tried! Charming service, but a long wait for the chef to actually arrive and be in the kitchen, and many things had not arrived - bread, for instance. Several customerscame, and then left again without ordering, but some stayed. My guest and I both ordered Caesar salad, which was very nice, and some french fries which are always good here. I am an old customer, and I love the Cafe Koha, but perhaps I will wait for quite a long time, until they get their act together, before I return.

Booked based on recommendations we read online and we weren't disappointed! Received a warm welcome- as if they'd been waiting for us - and attentive service throughout. Food was delicious (truffle and parmesan fries!!) Great little family- run restaurant, quiet, relaxing music, ideal for a pretheatre dinner, especially if you are hoping to spot an actor entering the stage door.

What a lovely place for a pre show lunch! We read a recommendation, and booked on that basis and were so happy with our choice. Koha is perfectly situated between the Noel Coward and Wyndham lunch, but our delight with the place was actually much more about it`s charm, individuality, food and service. We were a family group of 3 who were there at the beginning of the lunch service, so it was initially quiet, but the atmosphere built as it got busier. We were looked after beautifully and will come back again when we are next in London. Many thanks Koha team-this was a rare treat for us and you made it all the more special.

The food was really flavourful and drinks were top quality. We would highly recommend for a meal with friends, as a couple or pretheatre, as it is in a perfect location, tucked down a characterful lane, behind the Wyndham Theatre.
