Cote Brasserie in City of London, Westminster - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Oh no Cote, what's happened?! I normally love their dinners but Saturday night 8pm at the Wardour St branch, 4 dishes had already sold out, the only vegetarian dish left was a fake meat one (if you're vegetarian you're not necessarily looking for one that tastes like meat), and the beef bourgignon had huge dollops of fat we had to send back. The staff were kind but obviously embarrassed.

Made a reservation for 31 December 2023. Waited 45 minutes for table. Did not receive service or starters for 2 hours (ie 10pm) Getting any assistance was almost impossible. Together with many other tables around us walked out at 11:30pm (booking was 8pm). Best thing for the restaurant…close down. Ended having our New Years dinner at McDonalds (served by friendly staff within 3 minutes). Missed all fireworks for New Year.

we went to this cote brasserie several time in the past and the food offer was always acceptable but what they do now is just inexplicable bad. a dish as a croque monsieur advertise looked more like 4 slices of baguette put together and dry the egg on the top to do a croque madame looked like in the b'fast bun from Mc Donald. the seabass , bland the skin was not even crispy , the courgettes raw and the all dish swimming in water this dish was just appalling. we always have been regulars in this chain and it was by far the worse meal ever. this was for sure our last visit in this chain

Good service and very nice breakfast . Reasonably priced for London. We had croque modem, avocado toast, pot of tea and a coffee. Good selection on menu. Would go back

Disappointing dinner experience at Cote Brasserie in Wardour Street. To start with, the whitebait was very good as was the cote-du-rhone wine. After that it was all downhill. The seabass was small, overcooked and didn’t taste nice. The potatoes and peas were undercooked (how do you do that?) The rib-eye steak should have been medium-rare but it was medium to well-cooked; the pepper sauce didn’t taste of pepper. The service was slow even thought the restaurant wasn’t very full. We had to ask twice for water. The bill payment took too long as we were going to the theatre. This experience is unusual for Cote - the ones in Sloane Square and Teddington and Richmond are much, much better.
