An unforgettable dining experience! Every single dish at this restaurant was absolutely outstanding – bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and crafted to perfection. It’s rare to find a place where every bite feels like a treat, but this was truly exceptional. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made us feel so well taken care of throughout the evening. On top of that, the views of London were breathtaking, adding an extra touch of magic to the meal. If you’re looking for a combination of phenomenal food, warm hospitality, and stunning scenery, this place is a must-visit. I can’t wait to return – a true 5-star experience!

Update ;it’s been almost a year and I’m still waiting for someone to respond to my email!!! I visited the West oblix today with my husband to celebrate our wedding Anniversary. the atmosphere and service wasn’t good . The burger I ordered was seriously lacking in flavor, and I was so hungry that I had to eat half of it. What really upset me was that some of the staff seemed pretty rude. Things got even weirder when I went to the ladies' room. Two staff members actually asked me where I’m going !!one staff even made a comment why I’m carrying my bag and said ladies usually leave their bag and go to toilet.like seriously!!???( my husband was still at the table. )and we already asked for the bill. And it didn't end there – a staff member I had complained to earlier about the food (followed me within few minutes)into the restroom. I was shocked when he open the door!I still can’t understand it! what should have been a great day turned into a pretty bad experience.

Average -Dirty plates were kept on carrying trays in the dining hall and next to our table for the entire dinner. Menu is average and the wine list by the glass was very poor (we returned our orders of wine) and the final bill was given to us incorrect. - Food service however was quick and our waiter was very polite.

We almost skipped Oblix for Thanksgiving dinner, thinking it might feel too contemporary for our hopes of a vintage London experience. But since it was Thanksgiving, we decided to give it a try — and we couldn't have been more delighted. From the moment we stepped onto the 32nd floor, the stunning views of London set the tone for an unforgettable evening. The atmosphere, with its west-facing vantage point, perfectly complemented the luxurious spread ahead. The meal began with a selection of shareable starters, each more impressive than the last. Every dish was an amazing blend of flavors, showing an impressive attention to detail. The caramelized pecan pie with bourbon ice cream was the grand finale, paired beautifully with the thoughtfully curated American-inspired wine selections. The wine pairings truly elevated the entire experience. The service was also impeccable. If you're looking for a destination for a special occasion — or simply want to treat yourself to an extraordinary meal with unbelievable views — Oblix at The Shard is an absolute must. We can't recommend it enough.

All show and no substance over priced for average quality food. If you are after a treat spend the money on a nice Michelin stared restaurant there are so many to choose from in London. We asked for a window seat and got charged £20 for the privilege to overlook the restaurant below and crammed in like sardines not worth the money

We went in for a post dinner drink and From the moment we stepped in, we were captivated by the stunning views of London. The ambiance is elegant yet relaxed. We had the mocktails which were incredibly refreshing and beautifully presented! The whisky butterscotch ice cream with pecan nuts was brilliant as well. But what truly elevated our experience was the service. Man (hope I am spelling it right) , was outstanding. He was warm, kind and radiated positivity. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic evening.

Food was delicious. Loved the truffle and Parmesan fries & broccoli. The lobster was cooked perfectly - very tender and moist. However, I wasn’t a fan of the taste. It didn’t taste bad, but there was something about it I just didn’t enjoy. Cocktails were lovely. Service was a little slow but the restaurant was completely packed.

Complete waste of time. Why on earth would I pay these ridiculous prices if I can't even sit near a window. Can't go to the viewing platform. It was an absolute waste of time and money. Tables sit empty for ages and they refuse to reseat you. Don't bother coming here unless you are guaranteed a window seat because you can't see anything and pay a fortune for the privilege...I dont hold out much hope for the food being any good either. I was looking at bringing my employees here and booking the venue out but figured it was best to check it out first. certainly won't bother bringing them now. UPDATE: Further to your response, we did try the food and spent £178 for basically nothing. It was at best...average, the portion size was awful, we had to go to another restaurant afterwards because we were still hungry. We did book the table in advance, and the empty tables we saw there were still empty over an hour after we arrived.

If I could give the service a zero I would... Understand that if you are booking a table here the premium you are paying is for the view alone. The food typical of what you would find in a good gastro pub at an absolute michelin star price. Our waiter was strange, lurched around the table and did not offer us another drink for the whole meal. You would think that a name like The Shard would train there staff as the name would imply but, we got better service in a greasy spoon for breakfast that same day. Jack, I think it's time to brush up on your service skills, of course if we were even asked how our meal was, we would have given this feedback but, the impression is that once you pay they couldn't care less. Save your money and go up the observation deck.

We went out as 2 couples for a joint anniversary celebration Saturday night and thought we would go somewhere special with spectacular views. The views were fantastic on the west side. Our reservation was at 8-00pm we were there spot on to be told our table was not ready as yet, really not a problem and were taken over to a lovely spot at the bar. Around 30mins later, we’re taken to our table… WOW what incredible views right by the window. We went on to order more drinks and starters, which we’re delicious, mains we went for the wagyu tomahawk steak , black cod all were amazing and just melted in your mouth.I would highly recommend the steak. After finishing our meal we asked for the dessert menu to be told that we would not be able to have our dessert at our table and to be moved to the lounge. We asked why, to be told the next dinners have arrived and yet it wasn’t even 10pm. We had only been seated for 1-30mins … this is really unsatisfactory for a restaurant of this calibre. Considering we were kept waiting 30mins for our table in the first place. Put a real anti climax to a great night and no dessert. Dinner’s beware and management think about your loyal customers it’s not nice to feel rushed for no fault of ours.

Our meal: We were impressed by the great views over London. It's worth reserving a table by the window early. The menu is varied and offers something for everyone. We had, among other things, the lobster and steaks. Very good quality food, good service and check-in and very pleasant atmosphere. All of this also justifies the prices. I would love to eat at Oblix again. Other: Oblix at The Shard was founded in September 2012 on the 32nd floor of the Shard skyscraper in St. Thomas St., London, by restaurateur Rainer Becker. Located in Europe's tallest building, The Shard, Oblix offers urban dining with views of London. Oblix offers dishes from the open kitchen. Oblix at The Shard was designed by Claudio Silvestrin. Oblix offers customers a dual dining experience with a general dining room and a lounge serving cocktails, gourmet lunches and a la carte menus.

Beautiful views of the city (even though it was a very foggy day we enjoyed the place anyway). The atmosphere was amazing and we felt spoilt by our main waiter Francesco. There were a few service mistakes but fixed promptly and professionally. Cocktails were great and executed to perfection. We got the 3-course lunch menu, starters were great, main course was average (especially the seafood spaghetti which we found a bit confusing), side dishes were very tasty (especially the salad and the fries), and desserts were amazing and well balanced. Every dish and every drink looked amazing.

We ate here for my husband's birthday during our trip to London. Highly priced, no question, but also really fantastic food - everything was really exceptionally good (tuna tartar, beef tartar with bone marrow - sooooo good, ribeye steaks with vegetable side dishes, wine, cocktails). The view over the city in the dark is truly unique. Simply something special for special occasions. The service was very courteous and attentive. At most, I would like to see a larger selection of cuts (different steak sizes) and perhaps a few more affordable wines on the menu. But overall we had a fantastic evening, thank you!

Last Wednesday was my wife’s birthday. Upon arrival, I asked if they had a table for two near the window, and I didn’t mind waiting, but they said no right away. Then they told me it would cost extra. I didn’t mind paying extra, but they said I should have reserved it in advance. I don’t understand why a table near the window cost extra, especially since it wasn’t mentioned on their website when I made the reservation. We felt very sad about it, though the food was amazing, no doubt.

The food was quite good, but unfortunately, the service let the experience down. The waiter seemed to have an attitude at the start, and the service was slower than expected. One of the starters arrived before our drinks, with the second starter coming about 10 minutes later. Additionally, our main courses were placed on a nearby table for around five minutes before being served to us. Despite requesting a water jug, we never received one. Given these service issues, the 14% service charge felt unjustified.

Das Oblix befindet sich im 32. Stock des Wolkenkratzers "The Shard". Die Aussicht über das nächtliche London ist beeindruckend. Auch hier lohnt es allerdings wieder, gegen Aufpreis, einen Tisch am Fenster zu reservieren. Ich vermute, dass man von den hinteren Plätzen kaum etwas von der Aussicht wahrnimmt. Die Gerichte waren allesamt sehr gut. Besonders das Tatar und das halbe Huhn. Der Koch versteht sein Handwerk. Was allerdings erwähnt werden muss: - Die Geräuschkulisse ist im gesamten Restaurant sehr hoch. - Der Service hätte etwas öfter kommen können. Bzw. sehen müssen, dass die Gläser leer sind. Trotz dessen hatten wir einen sehr netten Abend mit ausgesprochen gutem Essen. Was allerdings für die Bewertung mit lediglich 3 Punkten gesorgt hat, ist Folgendes. Während meiner Abwesenheit fragte der Kellner meine Begleitung, ob er ein zusätzliches Trinkgeld, neben der auf der Rechnung bereits inkludierten Servicepauschale (bereits 15%), haben könne!? Das halte ich für ein Restaurant auf dem Niveau leider für ein absolutes Unding.

They assigned a Brazilian waiter to serve us to make things easier in the language. He clearly gave the wrong information - we asked him twice if the price was for 2 people or 1. He clearly said it was for 1 person. When it came time to settle the bill, he wasn't in the restaurant and the waiter who only spoke English was extremely stupid, saying that we hadn't understood, that the price was for 2 people, and we had to bear the burden since the mistake was on the part of the Brazilian waiter. . We had a scare! I don't recommend it.

My friend and I came for drinks to Oblix, and everything was good. However, one thing was a bit strange. There were free tables with a view, but the host seated us near the entrance in dark corner, while another host seated people who also came for drinks by the window.

We went for afternoon tea... 2 days prior to our reservation, they called to change it from east side to west side. Our waiter was very attentive upon sitting down..but disappeared...we had to ask another waiter for more tea and another plate of sandwiches. Waiter returned partly through our tea to say it was last call as kitchen was closing ...we were a bit surprised by that at a restaurant of this level. And during last 30 minutes of our tea, staff begun arranging tables for dinner service, moving tables and making quite a bit of noise. Lastly, staff started to gather and have their supper break ...which I understand but in front of clients is not profesional in my opinion. Wasn't quite the afternoon tea experience I had expected for that price. Positive side was views were amazing!

Edit: Whilst I can’t change my review I have updated service slightly why? Oblix contacted me about my review and showed genuine concern that my experience was not as they would have wanted or expected. Based on my conversation I am sure that my experience is not reflective of the norm. As such I look forward to returning in the future. Original: Slightly harsh review here but let’s face it pay £100+ a head you got to provide an exceptional meal with service. Location Let’s face it does not get better! Amazing views and just a special location (in our case a special graduation meal) Meal Cocktails were really great and server was able to give help (they were not the normal run of the meal cocktails) - very tasty Starters were exceptional, interestingly all sharing platters but we had 3 between 5 people and it was enough, so good portion sizes. Mains - honestly I was a little disappointed I had steak and it was nice but not great, the sides were awesome, and everyone else in the party enjoyed (or said they did) so maybe just me! Portions were very generous Service Extremely disappointed, our server started out really well, seemed attentive and engaging. However he lost focus around the main course - failed to clear the table in a timely manner (started then kinda forgot). When he did clear it felt like it was only because one of our party was overheard saying - think he forgot us! At no time did he check on drinks offer to refresh or get more drinks etc. very absent. In the end it took so long to clear the table, get a desert menu and for him to come check what we wanted, we decided to not have desert. The plus was they recognised my daughter’s graduation, giving her a congrats ice cream, which was sweet. Over all I left the restaurant frustrated that I had paid so much, and received such poor service.

My friend celebrated her birthday at Obilx, and we had a great time. The view was amazing, and the food was nicely presented. The staff were very calm and patient. We had a variety of meals, including the starter of seared beef carpaccio with mustard dressing, parmesan, and watercress, which I liked. The sour cream and horseradish burrata were also great. I enjoyed the starters more than the main meal, but overall, I loved the presentation of all the dishes. The Oblix dessert platter was beautiful and, being a dessert lover, it was my favorite part. It was a great experience, and I would definitely visit again.

The Oblix in London is a very beautiful and luxurious restaurant. We were there around 6 p.m. and had reserved a seat by the window. The place alone cost us £20. The view from the 32nd floor was breathtaking and we had a perfect view of the Tower Bridge while we ate. The time of year meant that at the beginning it was still light and we had a great view of London, and later it got dark and we could also see London from above at night. The staff were very attentive and polite. There was live music during the meal and the atmosphere was just right. For dinner we had the 3 course menu. It was tasty but unfortunately not quite perfect. There was about one vegetarian dish per course. There was nothing wrong with the cocktails. These not only looked very good but also tasted just as good. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay at the Oblix and can only recommend it.

No, I would not recommend. Food is highly overpriced for the quantity and quality. Lots of service staff, but service was poor; waited 20-minutes for them to clear our plates (after we asked). Views are blinded at sunset; which is why you are there. If you want a table by the window, that costs more. Supposed to be up-scale, but they allow under-dressed customers that degrade the experience.

Great food and great views. While there are some things on the menu just for show (like smokey drinks, dry ice fog on oysters), the food is really good. Essentially it is worth going to the restaurant just for the food regardless of the amazing views of the location. Oysters were superb, drinks were showy but very inventive and delicious. Great place for steak but also lots of other options. For example a humble roast chicken was amazing. Great date place too. Wine selection is excellent and the suggestions and help from staff were actually insightful and useful. To be honest, we just went for the view expecting a regular meal and were surprised by the food itself.

The restaurant boasts two kitchens—one dedicated to desserts and the other to hot dishes—showcasing their focus on culinary excellence. We were fortunate to sit by the windows, but our table was initially poorly lit, which could have affected the overall experience. However, our attentive waiter quickly solved the issue by bringing over a lovely lamp, making our dinner much more comfortable and enjoyable. The service was impeccable, with our waitress being exceptionally friendly and attentive. The menu itself is full of excellent choices, and while the prices are on the higher side, the quality of the food justifies the cost. For starters, we enjoyed crispy squid with a delightful aioli and a beautifully prepared beef carpaccio. Our main course featured a perfectly roasted chicken served with rich gravy and truffle fries. However, the fries were a slight letdown, as they appeared to be frozen rather than fresh hand-cut, which was a minor disappointment given the restaurant's high standards. Despite this, the overall experience was fantastic, made even more special by the thoughtful surprise at the end—a delicious vanilla ice-cream with a candle. We mentioned at the beginning that it was my birthday last week and we were celebrating. Oblix West delivers on both ambiance and service, making it an extraordinary spot for a special occasion or a luxurious night out.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 We were greeted by friendly staff and seated right next to the window with a beautiful panoramic view over Tower Bridge, Canary Wharf, and South London 🌉. The afternoon tea menu looked great, and we decided to go for the bottomless cocktails 🍸. The food was delicious, and the presentation was on point 👌. Special shoutout to Mr. Man and Mr. Silvio who were both incredibly helpful and attentive, explaining all the items in detail and making sure our cocktails arrived just as we requested! 🥂 Their service really added to the experience. We will definitely be coming back for another afternoon tea or maybe even lunch/dinner 🍽️. Highly recommend!

I was definitely pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. At first, I thought it would be one of those places with great views but mediocre food a typical "tourist trap." But I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only does this restaurant offer stunning, picture perfect views, but the food truly exceeded my expectations. The combination of the incredible views and the delicious food creates a perfect dining experience. I would absolutely recommend this place for anyone looking for more than just a pretty backdrop here, you get the full package. I’ll definitely be back!

Very beautiful restaurant with incredible views, staff are friendly and attentive, we was first in and was great and welcomed by all the chefs and staff. We had brunch and the started platter was delicious, the serlion steak was very well cooked at med-rare and sides were also amazing. There was a family with an ASD child next to us and they were so attentive and respectful to them, ensuring they here happy and comfortable throughout. The cocktail bar at the east side was very well put together and a very different but tasty range of cocktails.

Great views of London! We had the three course menu: the carpaccio, the artichoke salad, the sirloin steak, and the desert platter. It was our anniversary and they even decorated the plate :)

We had a fantastic evening out! We arrived after 6 pm, which meant we scored free street parking just a 6-minute walk from the restaurant. This convenient location was just the start of our great experience. The starters and desserts were truly superb, with each dish expertly prepared and presented. And the service was top-notch - our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience that exceeded our expectations!

We went to Oblix for my partner's 50th. I will say that we enjoyed the food though it didn't really set the world on fire. The staff were very nice. The views were great. However! We were seated next to a loud, foul mouthed and drunk foursome from Essex. One of them knocked his wife's drink which splashed my partner in her new dress. The waitress came to clear it up thankfully. The staff did not recognise the fact that this foursome were to be avoided and should have seated us elsewhere. It felt like we were in a Wetherspoons! A special evening was thoroughly spoilt. I messaged Oblix to raise my issue later that week and all I got from them (Dora) we tried to call you. No they didn't. I replied I didn't and have not heard anything since. When you spend £220 on a meal you expect something a lot nicer. Their customer care leaves a lot to be desired. Additional 11-7-24 So after Oblix replied to my review with an offer to call me and discuss my experience - STILL NOTHING HEARD!! Their aftercare is contemptible. The Ryan Air of restaurant customer service

No 32 andar do prédio The Shard , há o restaurante Oblix - excelente! A vista para a London Bridge , o chá e o atendimento- são ótimos! Não é barato, porém são tantos os prazeres que vale a pena! O doce de chocolate ( parece Ferrero Roche) é delicioso.

Was here on Christmas Eve. You pay extra for a window table. At the bottom you have to go through a metal gate, so you have to wait quite a while. View is super beautiful, would definitely recommend taking a window table. Upon arrival you are kindly welcomed, you are led to the table and soon someone comes to give you some explanation of the menu. We had a nice chat and the waiter was also interested and asked where we came from. Menu was extensive, prices are a bit on the higher side, but that is noticeable by the atmosphere and formality. We had 3 starters, bread was really extremely tasty. Calamaris ok, the beef tartare really tasty. As a main course, crab cakes, salmon, spare ribs, fries with parmesan and bimi. Spareribs were disappointing. Cocktail beautifully presented, but that's okay for 30 euros. We had ordered a little too much and were extremely full. Price-quality ratio is okay, main courses could have been a bit better compared to the price. Please note that you will pay a fee of approximately 15% on top of the total price. We spent about 280 euros for 2 people.

Afternoon tea with an amazing view. Went here around 2 pm and was sat at window (for £20 more) and had unlimited teas, by Andreos recommendations we had 4 amazing teas and coffees as well. The sandwiches were standard, loved the lobster and truffle. Scones were amazing with the marmalade. The desserts were very very sweet and pretty. The service was phenomenal. Every person staffed should be applauded for their attention.

Where should I start… I went there for afternoon tea with my 2 other friends. It was my 30th bday and also celebration of two of us getting pregnant. We started with the delay and waited for the table 30minutes. Hostess asked us if we are okay to stand so me (with the visible pregnancy) said “no, we are not”. Then once we sat by the bar waiter asked us if we want some water, we politely declined and heard a comment “it’s alright I won’t charge you for it” with a silly smile. Seriously?! you think we are not okay to pay for the water? That was pathetic. After we finally got our table, we waited to be served and our waiter was not attentive at all. His “happy birthday “ and “congratulations” were so fake that it would be better if he didn’t say anything. Our table was a mess all the time. Nobody bothered to clean and as we were ordering more items mess was only getting bigger and bigger. Finally, my friend who is not pregnant never received her champagne, even after complaining about it. For birthday they don’t even have 1 different pastry, you’re just getting your portion of afternoon tea separately on a plate 😅 Afternoon tea, dear manager or whoever is reading this - is about service, atmosphere and all experience. Everyone can make sandwiches and get something sweet at home. 0/10 Update: please look for the reservation under the name Anna K or Anna B as my friend was booking it. Table for 3, Saturday 22/06 at 3:30pm.

A Dreamy Experience.. My husband and I celebrated his 40th birthday at Oblix East, and it was an unforgettable experience. Arriving 45 minutes early, we were warmly greeted and chose to start with champagne at the bar. The breathtaking view, especially during sunset was gorgeous. There was live music which made our evening dreamy and special, the atmosphere was perfect. The food was good—tasty and well presented. We went for the 3 course meal. Highly recommend the crispy chicken starter. Dessert was a highlight, complete with a lovely "Happy Birthday" message for my husband. Our waiter, Sanjay, was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly.

Great busy pub opposite to borough market. Fun atmosphere and very quick service. Came on a Saturday and it was absolutely packed, but we still got served very quickly. The blonde guy with the posh accent (sorry don’t remember his name) was really kind and as soon as a table became available called us as we wanted to order some food. Burger and pizzas were delicious. Will comeback

I loved the cozy atmosphere of this Nero. Very clean, very well cared for, dog friendly because they allowed dogs in and for me that is a plus, they had gluten-free options, and the service was lovely. It was difficult for me to leave because it was luxurious. Highly recommended!

Manager and staff superb. We go here for drinks and usually sit by the window, the staff remember what drinks we have even though it is packed on a Sunday. The roasts look amazing and the puds. Nice to feel welcome when we just go for drinks. Everyone is well looked after and they ensure everyone leaves with a smile.

My friends and I recently held our birthday at The Crown. Laura and her team were fantastic. I would definitely recommend the venue for your private events.
