Cafe Monico - London

As TripAdvisor suggested, this venue has too little light and too loud music! Food good, but hard to enjoy as a table of six when we couldn 't even speak across the table, never mind along, or really see what we were eating. We had reserved but table not ready. '

Pre-theatre menu selection fine but main meal portions small for prices and vegetable sides warm rather than hot. Came quickly though and waitress service throughout excellent. No quiet spots possible in design of layout so not really suitable for the hard of hearing what I am. Would not look to return mainly for that reason.

Great service staff, friendly and efficient Starter of burr at a and pesto was lovely, the Primitivo wine was as you would expect. The rump steak was small (that was Ok) but a quarter of it was gristle and the medium rare did not render it tender even with the help of a steak knife, The staff did not respond to my observation. The fries stayed lovely and hot to the end and the sides of spinach and beans were very nice. Great tasting coffee

A great Prix Fixe meal, at a good price. The table was perfect, overlooking the bustling Shaftesbury Avenue.

As always, cafe monico was excellent eating, service and value for money. it was a bizarre situation when my friend and I just visited before the government imposed the different coronavirus restrictions and I think we were the only customers. it was extremely quiet. I hope for the cafe monico will and all the workers normality will return soon I will certainly return as soon as I can!
