We’ve celebrated my mom’s birthday here. It is very cozy and the staff was very kind and got us seated even without a booking. We enjoyed tasty truffle fries and cocktails with a great view on Saint Paul’s for lunch. And even when we’re not from the area ourselves we enjoyed escaping tourism for a while. Thanks for having us !

Breathtaking views & great food, Perfect place for an evening or the day. But Amanda at the front service, Was really the one who took our heart away! A place can be good or really good, With food, drinks, and views. But staff like her ensures that you come back, And are forced to write such reviews!

I took my partner here last night for his birthday dinner. We had a very warm welcome from the staff and were taken to our Al fresco table over looking the magnificent St Paul's cathedral. It had a cosy feel and great music from the DJ. The wait staff we had were a little quiet but friendly. After a slight confusion on prices of the set menu (online is says from £29 for 2 courses, but its actually £46 for 2 courses unless you specifically found and chose the other option) so make sure you're aware of what booking you make. The service was quick, the food was good although mu steak wasn't rested long enough and I had a salad drenched in blood. The Prosecco was lovely (free glass with meal) the cocktail presentation was wonderful with the St Paul's image on it but the flavours let it down. Spectacular views of St Paul's and great photo ops. Dishes were served quickly, with a friendly smile. I think the drinks are somewhat over priced for what is being offered. However all in all we had a lovely night and I'd probably go back or take visitors there for a special occasion..

We went for a 3-course set menu and the food was really good. The team were helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend the goddess salad, brownie dessert and the sundae dessert. Delicious.

Great food, excellent service. I went on a monday, so it was not busy. Great mussels for the entrée, crab pasta for the main dish and chocolate mousse for dessert. All great options. Also, a short menu ensures all comes out fast and tasting good!

Great food, good service and staff is super attentive. Came here with my work colleagues. The vibe is good, relaxed and chill and they have a good setup. Little tricky to find if you haven’t been here before as the name hides under two massive trees but once you’re in, it’s great. Would highly recommend and definitely visit again.

The staff was incredibly welcoming, and their genuine warmth made us feel right at home. They went above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience for me and my friend. Since it was her 30th birthday, they seated us at the best table in the house and surprised us by adding “Happy Birthday” to our dessert, even treating us to the tiramisu on the house. The food was authentically Italian, perfectly complemented by their house wine, making us feel as if we were dining in Italy itself. I highly recommend this place!

For starters you can never go wrong with the Zucchini fritti, honestly best i’ve had in London so far super crispy. Moving onto the Lobster linguine it was nice, but not worth the price in my opinion. Affogato to top it off, nothing but pure joy. Staff were very accommodating and the house white was a delight!

We enjoyed our late lunch dim sum at Ping pong . The manager was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere was nice and calm. Food was good value; I enjoyed the meaty dim sum more than the Veggy ones. Wonton veggies soup was very nice. Drinks are nice too. Thank you again!

Want to have Chinese style lunch at this area, found this dim sum restaurant which nearby the cathedral! But the food not so nice and portion pretty small, dumpling also normal only! Personally will not recommend.
Yenestc Lim - 3 weeks ago

We went during happy hour (1/2 off dim sum, M-F!!!) and were pleasantly surprised. The staff was great, they have robots that pick up dirty dishes and drop off food, the place is huge (good for singles , couples and groups) and the food… Dim sum of all types (veggie and meat), fresh and hot, perfect sauces, the appetizers and the bao buns, and the mini desserts (we tried them all!!)-> everything we had was great! We talked about this place the rest of the weekend!! We would definitely go back.

Let's just start with the punchline: I highly recommend this place. We were just casually walking around enjoying the after work pub environment that tends to spill out onto the streets. After grabbing a beer, we decided to walk around and see what other pubs and restaurants were in the area. We tend to enjoy the "small plate" meals during our work trips to London because it gives us a chance to enjoy a variety of foods. Ping Pong Bow did not disappoint. We selected several items, and they came out in sequence, allowing us to enjoy a few things at a time with the table not being overrun with dishes. Everything we selected was great, and we were only disappointed because we were full and have to wait to come back to try more items. This place is best enjoyed with a small group, which will just increase the variety of options you can try.

The duck confit is good but I wish the duck skin is more crispy and more sauces. For the tuna steak are good combination but for the chicken liver I think the baguette can be better to compliment the taste of the liver. Overall still amazing for this restaurant
Joe Yang - a month ago

Update on 22 November (1.42pm) Truly disappointed with the service, spent 1-ish hour waiting and food is not served. In the end, we have to cancel the food order and leave the restaurant. Horrible! ————————————————————— London is a vibrant city spoilt for food choices, enjoy your modern French food at Cote (located near to St Paul’s Cathedral) from a breakfast champagne toast to French onion soup and fresh mussels cooked in white wine. Sante!

Just popped into this restaurant after the tour at St Paul cathedral. My family are all very satisfied and happy with the meal. Though we didn’t have reservation and ended up sitting at the table outside. It is a fantastic experience with the view of St Paul Cathedral while eating. Staff are superb and friendly. Food are amazingly good! Highly recommended the confit duck and onion soup.

I was with my friends for dinner there. We ordered Onion Soup and Steak Rib-eye 👍The French Onion Soup was creamy and delicious. One of the best onion soups I ever tried. 👎The Rib Eye Steak wasn’t good. Because even though it was rare or medium it wasn’t juicy and it Didn’t have taste of stake at all. And the souse (garlic and butter) wasn’t tasty as well. 👉The Confit Duck A L’Orange was also ok, because it doesn’t have reach taste like it has to be, and the meat is so crazy soft (strange) (was softer then even chicken). Good duck doesn’t have to be that soft. 👉 Baked Ratatouille was ok. Wasn’t enough taste of vegetables or so. A bit tasteless as the rib Eye stake. 👍The Creme Caramel it was the only really tasty dish (dessert)😜 👍 The Creme Caramel Royal was also good but as for me and my friends not so good as one above ☝️ 📌All the dishes looked amazing and tasty like 5* but when you eat them it’s like 3* Especially for such a nice place in such a cool area 😶The staff could be more friendly, smile and paid more attention to the customers. We came at 6 pm, and there was not too crowded and we got our food just in 1 hour😓, And as we are tourists, as we noticed, the staff served faster for British people than for us and others who were also around us..

Perfect location while touring. Popped off the tour bus for St. Paul’s and it is right there. Checked reviews and grabbed a table outside. Ordered chicken liver starter which came in a cute jar, wonderful jam and perfectly toasted points. Scraped the jar clean. We ordered from their very reasonably priced three course prefix: carrot and roasted squash soup, sea bass and plum clafoutis. See menu choices in the pics. Everything was very good. Service was good as well.

I can't praise this restaurant enough! Friendly, welcoming, super cool! Went for dinner yesterday for my birthday after climbing to the top of St Paul's! I had never had Lobster before, I was very keen to try it, and this was the best place to do just that! We had the set menu with the upgraded mains, I had the whole lobster meal, my better half had half lobster & burger meal, lobster croquettes to start and the moose and sticky Toffee pud for desert, some oysters to celebrate my birthday and drinks. Tone was our waiter, we could not have had a better atmosphere, better service - Tone was simply the best! The food - WOW - I don't know what else to say, the taste, portions, presentation, service was just amazing from start to finish, my birthday dinner was an amazing experience, i would recommend this restaurant with the highest regard, can't wait to return and honestly can't find fault with anything and I'm very hard to please! Huge thanks to Tone, best waiter! Thanks guys, my birthday dinner was unreal! 🙂

Went for lobster day today so got second lobster main for free. Fave is the lobster roll as usual - can’t go wrong but it is quite pricey normally I would say so the discount was welcomed. Tried lobster croquettes for first time today and was also quite yummy. Staff was lovely.

My boyfriends birthday just so happened to be on the same day as their lobster day. We didn’t queue for that long, came in and everything was brilliant service even though it was busy. Loved the food, the burger never disappoints! You have to get a lobster roll because it’s honestly the most amazing thing ever. A special thanks to Gaetano for making it extra special and really helping us through our choices!

Went for a quick lunch at 1:30pm on a weekday. Lots of empty tables and appropriately only 5 tables were occupied. Food was up to standard and the fries were my favourite as always. Although there were 2 to 3 crews walking around in the front of house, their attention level to customers has to be improved. We had waited for 10min to catch the attention of one of them in order to have the bill.

We went for the Lobster day promo and we very impressed. Queue was not too long considering an event and service and food was excellent. Everything came out quickly and very kind helpful staff. Would definitely come back again!

I recently had dinner here with a few colleagues, and while the food was a bit of a mixed experience, the service left much to be desired. Our waitress seemed uninterested and quite grumpy, which put a damper on the overall atmosphere. That being said, the rest of the experience was fine. I personally enjoyed the scallop and pasta dishes I ordered—both were delicious and well-prepared. However, my colleagues weren’t as lucky. They found their meals underwhelming and the portions were so large that it became more of a chore to finish than an enjoyable meal. So, while my dishes hit the mark, the inconsistency in both service and food quality left some room for improvement.

We had a fantastic birthday lunch here today. The staff were amazing. The food was to die for, and we finally got decent weather!

Superb food and a great atmosphere. This restaurant has a sign outside to say that it is officially approved by the Italian government for the authenticity of the food. The special of the day, steak in a grain mustard sauce, was very fine indeed.
Tim Leunig - 2 months ago

Very nice business lunch here. Menu has lots of variety and some good daily special prices especially for the City . Worth a visit if you want to admire signed football shirts . Food was really good , lost a star because some of the staff just didn't seem happy and I feel for them , maybe a rude customer or a management issue.

Authentic Italian food in London, best fried zucchini I can remember, recommend linguine and clams. Great Italian restaurants always have grappa…this place does.

This place is absolutely class act - the feel of the place was just upscale and comfortable. Golden lights gave off an ambiance of style. I've never eaten Turkish food before, so I had a little trouble reading the fine print (as I'm old). But the menu was laid out in an organized way, with just the right amount of options. The food came quickly and the colors, aromas, portions were all just what I wanted.

An absolute gem of a restaurant! The succulent meats accompanied with flavoursome sides which contains some of the best ingredients inspired by the Mediterranean! All combined to give you an amazing food experience! I was absolutely blown away by the flavours and the deep chargrilled aromas with the most tender and beautiful meats.. definitely going back with the whole family

We were pleasantly surprised to try Haz at St Paul’s. It is a huge restaurant and well decorated and very busy. It is well blended atmosphere of a British Pub and Turkish cuisine,serving all kebabs salads,desserts,cocktails,drinks The food was top quality,friendly staff. I had a chance to meet Mr Hacı who runs the restaurant.thanks for his kind hospitality and the drinks I highly recommend this restaurant.😊🌸❤️
Ali Gurer - 5 months ago

We came here for lunch and the food is nice but in my view nothing special. We had babganoush, artichoke, a mixed grill, sliced chicken and the samphire side. The samphire side was actually delicious, the rest all very standard Turkish cuisine which didn’t warrant the price tag. The mains come with no salad or side so £23 for some chicken is not the best. The staff were friendly, considerate and helpful with my allergy issues which was really nice.

Tarun Yadav - a week ago

Sadly not the best experience. Food is expensive for its quality/taste and service could be better. Note - The festive menu has not been designed for dietary requirements and prices for vegetarian options on the festive menu are double the price when compared to the same dishes on the normal lunch menu! We came during a busy lunch time so service was very slow. Some dishes came so late that others in our party had already finished eating. Main portions were good, but sides and starters are very small for their price (e.g. small bowl of chips for £5). The location is good, but I wouldn't return unfortunately.

Popped in for lunch and ordered the Thai green curry and mini pavlova. The curry was lovely and creamy, I wished there had been more! Friendly service, too.

It is 5* for the pastries and coffee. Some amazingly delicious sweets. Best I ate in London. However, the attitude from the servers is unexcusable. The way they treat the customers is like doing them a favor . Very condescending from behind the cashier counter. There is a lot of room for improvement there

Great pastries and even better was the staff! He was so nice and kind and was making jokes, made gloomy winter abit better!

A great location! It’s right in front of St Paul’s Cathedrals I cannot resist getting something to eat and drink when I walk past this place especially when the weather is nice. I bought a cup of decaf flat white and olive bread sticks for breakfast today. I enjoyed every sip and bite. All the pastries and desserts are all so tasty. I often buy bread for takeaway.

Very good mozzarella, tomato and pesto sandwich. Decent bread. Fast and friendly service and excellent location right opposite St Paul’s. Plenty of places to sit and eat sandwiches a short walk away, too.

Well prepared, excellent quality food. Service very professional by staff focused and interested in what they are doing. Atmosphere couldn't be better in this very modern but comfortable hotel setting
John Stanton - 3 months ago

It's not bad. If you haven't been to a place like this before it has the novelty factor of having your food cooked in front of you with some theatre from the chef (flames & flipping of food) but the food is mediocre. Quite expensive for what it is so doubt I'd be rushing back.
Billy Sullivan - 7 years ago

Great cooking show but after our meal was cooked! (you can request the cooking show once your meal has been cooked) Please be advised if you are a person who does not drink alcohol to be asked to be seated on a separate table as the food is cooked with alcohol! (especially for muslims). I believe the food is overpriced for rice and chicken and soup! Our chef was great and would recommend this restaurant for special/date nights.

Excellent place to have dinner and drink some cocktails. Especial mention to the barman (cannot remember his name) who prepared our drinks with a nice conversation and smile, rest of staff were also very professional and kind to us. Whenever I go to London this is a must!

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Absolutely amazing experience. The staff treated my daughter like a guest of honour as it was her 7th birthday. Thanks again.
