    Although very busy, the service was prompt and attentive and there was minimal wait for the food to arrive. The food itself was clearly freshly cooked and of a high standard. We have eaten here before on visits to WNO concerts in the Milennial Hall opposite and will do so again.

    Food was good and reasonably priced. The restaurant was very busy and so service was a bit slow. However, Marco made sure we were able to eat and pay in time for the opera starting.

    Extremely noisy. Every possible means had been pursued to make the space as reverberant as possible. Where there were floor to ceiling windows, they were uncovered glass. Walls were covered with mirrors or smooth laminate, as were the doors. The floor was hard and smooth, and the ceiling appeared to be a smooth continuous surface. The only things with sound absorbent surfaces in the restaurant were the staff, the customers, and the food. Keep those, but change the rest! One of our party complained afterwards of a sore throat from having to raise their voice continually to be heard.

    We’ve eaten at Cǒte many times now. The restaurant was particularly packed this evening with pre theatre ‘Kinky Boots’ diners. Luckily we’d booked a table and were promptly shown to our table, by a lovely young man. He even noticed some spilt liquid on our table and immediately wiped it away. He politely offered to take our coats too. We had a great table and were served our wine in a nice, floor height ice bucket. Due to only having an hour to eat (I couldn’t get an earlier table), we opted for just a main course. This arrived quickly, despite the volume of diners. Another young man asked if we wanted dessert. He was professional, friendly and chatty, despite the pressure to serve everyone. A lovely start to our evening and we made it to our theatre seats with minutes to spare! Well done to all the staff, especially the kitchen staff, which must have been challenging for them!
