A very busy, buzzy restaurant with lots of theatre goers. We were served quickly and our food was delicious (duck and salmon). We shared the chocolate praline with ice cream, very moorish! We tend to eat here when in the area, for value and location. Can recommend.

Perfect location after watching a performance nearby. Requested a nice table to celebrate wife’s birthday and they provided a table by the window which was perfect. Food was delicious and felt that we were back in France. Only downside was that the waiter didn’t seem very happy and didn’t smile once. Must have had an off day!

Another excellent Côte pre theatre meal… This time we chose downstairs to be quieter. Less atmosphere but we could all 4 hear each other…
