The food was fine, service really poor. We had to ask just get some menus, then again to place our orders, then yet again just to get a wine list. Staff seemed greatly overworked, and some of them were quite rude. Our party of 7 certainly wasn't made to feel welcome or valued. When we eventually got to place our order (about an hour after arriving) the food came surprisingly quickly and was fair enough, but not exceptional. The restaurant was very crowded, with tables packed in and unpleasantly noisy - due to the close proximity of so many other diners. Overall, it was quite expensive for what it was, but I suppose you should expect that for the location - about £80 per head, including drinks and 12% service charge. It was ok, nothing I would complain about, but I wouldn't go again.

Dined at Oslo Court as a special Christmas treat to enjoy some French cuisine in London and some sparkling silver service on pink tablecloths by the wonderful staff at the restaurant. Booked nearly 2 months in advance such is the demand to get a table on a Saturday night and it was definitely worth the wait. Everything was exquisite from start to finish. You are greeted as an old friend on arrival and your coat is taken and shown to your table , the candle is lit and the server places a napkin on your lap and old school Melba toasts and some crudités are placed on the table while you peruse the menu. The choices are amazing, something for everyone. My yellowfin tuna tartare was delicious, fresh tasting and looked very pretty with the cucumber finishes. The crab à la Rochelle was indeed puff pastry shaped like a crab and served with brandy sauce, it was outstanding. Main course of côte de veau was divine, the meat cooked perfectly and it was a good sized portion served with as much veggies as you wanted - carrots, fried zucchini, green beans , carrots, cauliflower cheese , potatoes or frites - the list goes on. The fillet mignon was served with a simple yet tasty mushroom, shallot and red wine sauce - French foodie heaven. Dessert choices numbered at least 15 ! from French crêpes Suzette to a bowl of ice cream , tarte tatin or some profiteroles , remember to save some room as my tart tatin with ice cream was heavenly. Tea and coffee is also included as well as some petit fours so you will not leave hungry, you certainly get value for your £55. Wine list was well priced and something to suit all pockets - total came to £164.64 including 12% service and a bottle of red for £37 . Some of the items have a supplement but most do not. It was a lovely evening and fellow diners were all having a great time too enjoying the old-fashioned French cuisine which is perfectly executed and served up flawlessly by the super staff . It's an evening well spent if you get the change and not to be missed.

We came twice during December. Both times the food was superb. The service was generally excellent but some of the newer staff show their inexperience. The only niggle was in the bills. The first time I had to point out a missing bottle of wine at £50, the second time they hadn't charged for champagne but did charge for an extra dinner!!

6 of us went last night for my husband's special birthday. All I can say is wow - it never disappoints. The service is second to none, the ambience and decor is beautiful - even the toilets are luxurious. The main event though is the food. The menu is large and varied, and seems to contain all my favourites - everyone's meals were piping hot, delicious, and huge portions - I think we rolled out at the end of the night and I was still full the next day. One of the highlights is Neil the dessert waiter. He no longer has his famous trolley but it doesn't stop him tempting you with delicious dessert. On top of that he was made a large, delicious cake - which we were too full to even taste - so it was packed up for us to take home. We tasted it this afternoon - gorgeous. I nearly forgot that the meal includes a hot drink. In my case a decaf latte which was delicious and came with a heart on top. Totally faultless, and it's easy to see why they are booked up all the time. Can't wait to go back.

I have been attending here for over 40yrs, twice a year, we went last night and introduced 6 friends to our favorite restaurant. I and my friends were sat down in a cramped table with 2 jammed up against a internal concrete pillar, they gave us 1 crudités for 8 people when it should have been at least 3, then they asked for our drinks order but 2 guests were in the toilet,we said give us 5 mins they gave us 30 seconds when they did serve drinks they were passed across the table over our heads.Then they served starters and took back the bread roll of one guest who was eating it with his soap,The mains were served and they dropped chips over another guest with no sorry or nothing,i have never seen chips served here ever and then my well done steak was mooing with blood, i complained and when we got our bill i was still charged for the steak,the vegtables were thrown on our plates like we was in a school, saving grace Neil, but i was totally shocked and very disappointed with the service

Took a gamble as this was a treat for my friend's birthday. We are both glad I did! It is in an unusual setting in a St John's Wood block of apartments, which was a short taxi-ride from Marylebone Station. Lovely fabric table cloths and napkins, fresh flowers on all the tables, pretty decor, and comfortable chairs. The staff - plentiful - were very attentive. Very tasty food, a large choice on the lunch time set menu and good portions. Starters, main course, dessert and tea/coffee with petits fours - and all presented beautifully. Traditional dining with high standards, what's not to like!?

We came to Oslo Court as one of the first places to go our after the pandemic. We wanted this to be a special event for our mother, mother-in-law and grandmother to mark her 90th birthday. Her grand-daughters tried very hard prior to arrange a special event with cake etc.The food was as good as ever but slightly over-priced. The service was really, really poor. After having had a glass of champagne each the bottle was left in the wine cooler and eventually we had to help ourselves to the remainder. I asked for the wine list three times so as to have some wine with the main course, but it never arrived until the food was already on the table. When we ordered our desserts I asked again for some dessert wine, at least twice, and yet again noone turned up. The waiter gave us fish knives and forks for the main course when steak knives were what was required. These were replaced eventually when the food arrived.As for the sides with the main course there was no spinach which we did notice was provided on other tables. This should have been noticed and rectified - not good enough.At the end I had to get up and find someone to provide the bill having asked twice.We will not be going back and it has left a somewhat sour taste in the mouth.There are better places to go - unfortunate.

My husband's fillet mignon was very tender, my dover sole was beautiful and my brother and his wife also found their dishes delicious - Oslo Court were particularly generous with the quantity of all the exras such as vegetables. This is how restaurants should be run. Plan to return soon.

Heard so much about this restaurant but was a little disappointed, service was good and so was the food but lacked ambience and too expensive for what you get, didn’t like the fact that you pay for three courses even if you only want a main, tried it and won’t return as lots better in the area, living on its past reputation.

Love Oslo Court!!I literally love going to this restaurant it feels like you are going to a wedding in the 1980s with pink linen tablecloths & napkins and it’s in a block of flats. Service is outstanding with warmth, friendliness and lots of funny banter. Nothing is too much trouble and the menu is so extensive, that it’s a hard decision what to have. It’s set 3 courses and the portion sizes great. The selection of vegetables and potatoes is vast and you can have a bit of everything and then need to be rolled to the car thanks for another wonderful evening

Sadly after 40+ years of visiting Oslo Court this will be our last. Service is no longer the slick silver service of the past, more staff being used for jobs outside their comfort zone. The barman was used at our table for desserts. A total disaster. He had no idea that a Pavo,a was made with meringue and was quite insistent that we were wrong. I called for another member of staff to assist. What was ultimately served was a single meringue with a little fruit on it…..just awful. It was changed without fuss. Sadly they really miss Neal. For £155 a couple there was little value.

The satnav said we had arrived, but we couldn't see anything that looked like a restaurant, just a block of flats. However, it was there, sure enough.The restaurant appears to be in a time warp, it was like going back in time, as it has a classic decor, a generally old without looking tired feel. It was nostalgic and pleasant.The staff have obviously been there for some time, they are really at home there, and are very hospitable and friendly.Food was really great. Everything served hot, and perfectly seasoned. Service was great throughout, and done classic silver service style. I have never had anchovies and capers on a schnitzel/milanese before, and it was delicious.We really enjoyed it, and look forward to going back.

What a fantastic evening we had at Oslo Court. Everything just went so well. The food was great as always and the atmosphere was completely relaxed and enjoyable despite the challenging situation in the country at large. For starters, we had the Foie Gras (admittedly an indulgent choice) and the salmon and prawn salad, both of which were well presented, accompanied by a Burgundy. For mains, both the Wellington (which is always reliable!) and lamb chops were perfect complements to a Rioja. The one thing you can always rely on at Oslo Court is the service...the entire team were so good this evening despite the imminent lockdown. In summary, you can always rely on Oslo Court for a great meal.

La calidez de recibir a la llegada es solo el comienzo de un recorrido mágico y misterioso en el tiempo. Apareciendo sin cambios desde los años 70, este restaurante lo hace bien noche tras noche. El precio fijo muy razonable le permite ordenar del menú, y debe llegar con hambre porque los postres están incluidos en el precio y ¡son fabulosos! Probablemente comerá en exceso y se irá riendo y habiendo recibido una gran noche para levantar la moral. El cargo por servicio al 10% es solo otro pequeño ejemplo de que este equipo desea brindarle una relación calidad-precio total y que regrese. ¡Vas a!

Los tres compartimos un encantador Sauvignon Blanc de Nueva Zelanda. Re la comida. - Te dan la bienvenida con crujientes y una deliciosa salsa de mayonesa de ajo, así como tostadas de melba y panecillos calientes. Teníamos ensalada de marisco, morralla y salmón ahumado para empezar todo excelente sin nada en los platos. Del mismo modo los platos principales de pato (muy crujiente) y salsa de cerezas y la ternera Holstein acompañados de una selección de patatas y verduras. También pedimos espinacas a la crema. Nuevamente todos los platos se vaciaron por completo. Seguimos con los postres, no sé cómo teníamos espacio, pero una vez más los platos se despejaron por completo. Para ocasiones especiales, este restaurante es de visita obligada. Como huéspedes que regresan, solo hemos tenido una comida y un servicio maravillosos y, aunque no es barato, vale la pena cada centavo.

Other London restaurants are great, but they all line up behind Oslo Court. I have been coming here for over 40 years, and it has remained my favorite place for four decades. There are good reasons: 1. The food is superb and very varied,2. The service is warm, friendly and unhurried3. The ambiance is just perfectThis lunch was with an old friend during a visit to the UK. After the crudites and melba toast, I started with Duck and Chicken Liver Pate, served with warm toast and he had Lobster Bisque.For main course, my friend had Dover Sole and I had Halibut and Salmon en Croûte which was excellent. I passed on the Pernod Sauce but I should have asked for Hollandaise instead. I'm not sure how we found room for desserts but Neil, the legendary desert waiter, persuaded us to Apple Strudel and Creme Brulee.A long, lovely lunch. Simply perfect. I look forward to the next time.

I have had lunch several times at this restaurant over recent years, and invariably in the past I enjoyed it. The ambiance is a throw back to a more gracious time, and the service has always been excellent. It’s been a good place to go for a special occasion. But this time I made the mistake of going there on a Friday, which is evidently a very popular time. I am not elderly and my hearing is excellent, but even so I struggled to hear what my lunch companion was saying because of the background din with the restaurant being packed, and all the tables being very close together. And more importantly, the food was very disappointing this time. I had the fried garlic mushrooms for a starter, and they arrived swimming in lots of butter, which was off putting. The grilled salmon was a disaster - although the outside was crisp, the inside dissolved into nothingness without any texture other than gooeyness. (The Sainsburys Taste the Difference salmon which I cooked for myself the other week was infinitely better in quality and a fraction of the price.). The only saving grace was the raspberry tart, with an extra side portion of mixed berries, which I enjoyed. Perhaps the restaurant has a new chef who is inexperienced?We had to wait an unusually long time for our main course to arrive, and again for the bill to come. And I felt the staff were slightly impatient when I arrived and was taking my coat off, and again when we left. Perhaps more staff are needed on busy days like this.No doubt the restaurant would respond that they would like customers to say at the time if anything is wrong, but (probably in common with many other diners) I dislike spoiling the atmosphere of a special time with friends by complaining. I would probably go back again later in the year in the hope that this disappointing lunch was an aberration, but I would certainly avoid going on a Friday or at other particularly busy times.

The place was extremely busy, yet we were welcomed and seated promptly, and asked what we might care to drink. After the menus were presented and specials announced, orders were taken fairly promptly and it was not long before the appetiser course arrived, and they have a talent for ensuring that dishes that should be served hot are served hot.Main courses followed and then desserts. The food is excellent though the desserts sometimes look slightly tired despite the selling efforts of Neil.

So much food and delicious lunch at Oslo Court for my birthday. It was buzzy and busy on a Saturday lunchtime, clearly with a number of regulars. We all had fish courses which were delicious and lots of choice even before you add in the specials. It's like going back in time but in such a positive way. We really appreciate how great they are with our grandkids. Slightly not such great service as normal from our waiter as we had to ask for menus, wine to be topped up. But as ever Maria and Neil on the puddings were just fab. A wonderful 4 hours. Thank you so much for looking after us. Will be back !

Visited for the first time recently and will be the last time. Totally bizarre place, like walking back into the early 70's. Had to stand in the reception of the flats to wait for our table, which wasn't ready. Food all seems to have a grey tinge to it. I had the Beef Wellington, which was basically a bit of grey meat in soggy pastry. Mountains of stewed veg. No - not for me. Friend had the pate - also grey.... It obviously appeals to the regular clientele, but it's a no from me. So bad it was funny !

Había escuchado a tanta gente hablar sobre el Tribunal de Oslo, así que estaba encantado de reunirme con amigos (un habitual del Tribunal de Oslo y otro novato como yo) para un almuerzo tranquilo a mediados de semana. Los críticos que se quejan de una decoración anticuada obviamente no lo entienden. El punto de ir aquí es experimentar algo diferente y único. Tienes que seguir la corriente y disfrutar el hecho de que los atentos camareros anuncian los platos, apilan la comida y no escuchan las solicitudes de porciones más pequeñas. Cuando le dije al camarero que solo quería 2 platos, me pidieron que explicara por qué no quería un entrante, lo que me pareció un poco extraño pero probablemente parte del encanto excéntrico. Elegí la lubina seguida de un pastel de mousse de chocolate. La comida era buena y bien preparada, pero las porciones eran demasiado grandes para mí. Mi consejo sería morir de hambre antes de una visita, olvidar sus expectativas del siglo XXI y disfrutar del encanto del viejo mundo de un restaurante como ningún otro.

This location was chosen to host our monthly 6th of the month retirement get together One of us had been here before but the rest first time and we were impressed from the greeting we received from the staff Our table was well laid. Food and wine were excellent- bit pricey on the wine. When food came it was top class from starters main course and sweet All fabulous. I will come back soon and might bring the wife next time

Situated in the ground floor of a purpose built block of flats opposite Regent's Park, this unusual, old-fashioned but incredibly comfortable restaurant - which is a throwback to all that was good in the 1960s and 1970s - is well worth the visit.

Due to a medical emergency, we had to request to go orders to meet family obligations. OMG - staff could not have been nicer. And the food was much more satisfying than what we had at "DINNER" by H.B. the evening before.

Fairly awful meal 3 nights before xmas. The turkey was dry and no bread sauce available - not sure if 43 different types of vegetable compensate. Dessert took 45 mins, still at least we got what we ordered, unlike the table next to us, where they all appeared to get the same thing, which none of them ordered.

We introduced some friends to this marvellous restaurant near St Johns Wood High Street. Its a one off, great ambiance, friendly service with the most delicious no nonsense food, well cooked and the choice of starters, main courses and the desert trolley are historic. A lovely restaurant and one to return to again and again. It does not disappoint.

This restaurant is a classic and is also unique being in a block of flats. It is quite formal with attentive service and a huge menu. They are best known for their fish and all of us had fish dishes. I tried the trout mouse wrapped in smoked salmon to start before trying the salmon and halibut en croute with Pernod sauce which was superb. I finished off with apple pancakes and ice cream. Portions were substantial so I just about managed. At £48 for 3 courses before service I think the value is excellent for the quality of food and service. It is a fabulous venue for a special occasion. Lunch is rather cheaper but personally I prefer the buzz of a busy evening service.

This should be the benchmark for all aspiring restauranteurs. Over the years Oslo Court has become the epitome of what fine dining in comfortable, luxurious surroundings should be. The service is impeccable, the quality of the ingredients, the flavours of the food are a testimony to the professionalism of all the staff, both front of house and in the kitchen.

We've been visiting the Oslo Court for many years. The service has taken a dive, the staff are less attentive. I was barged out of the way by a waiter, I nearly took exception to this but did not want to cause a disturbance. It's such a shame - what's gone wrong?The dinning experience use to be wonderful but those days have gone.

Came here for dinner for my birthday. The place is salmon pink and stuck in the 1980s, and is all the better for it. You pay a set cost (£48 per person) and get to choose three courses from their huge menu. We also paid a supplement (£2.50) for beef wellington, £3.50 for a bottle of mineral water, and £7.15 for a glass of house wine. 10% service charge was added. The staff were wonderful, especially the wonderful dessert waiter, and the menu was massive and everything was delicious if you like traditional, British 80s food. I will definitely be visiting again.

I celebrated my 60th Birthday with 15 other family members last Saturday. What a wonderful performance by the staff at The Oslo Court. As always the food was of its high standard but I was slightly concerned by the obvious pressure a table of 16 would bring to an already busy Saturday lunchtime. Many restaurants would have refused my booking. But not the Oslo! Every drink, every plate, served to the right person at the right time. No drama about that many simultaneously, no pressure to be in quickly or have any perceptile delay between courses. This was an object lesson in how to run a serivce. My family, none of whom had been before, loved the lunch. I really cannot thank you enough though I will do so in person when I am next in. You should be very proud of what you do, you are the best.

Was recommended this superb venue by a female mate. How right she was! Came here for lunch with colleagues - my Coquilles St Jacques starter was exceptional along with my main of Salmon and Halibut En Croute. The Escargots looked great also along with the steaks and other fish mains. Extremely good and fastidious service. Great great lunch!

The food, service ambience reached and fully satisfied our expectations. One niggle though - having been told that the crab and prawn cocktail could not be offered despite being on the menu, we were told that lobster was being offered as a substitute with no mention of there being an extra charge for the substitution, we were merely asked if this would be acceptable. We were, therefore, surprised when an extra £10 was charged. The amount of lobster involved as an upgrade was really tiny and not £10 worth so, as well as not being informed that a surcharge was attached to the starter dish, this seems worthy of mention. Somewhat naughty!

This place is out of town and is truly fine dinning. Every thing on the menu is excellent quality and quantity. Italian flavour and very rich but good. 3 courses, wines are very expensive but the best is the desert and the waiter that is in charge. He has been at the restaurant for 40 years , he and only he does the desert. He basically tells you what is on the menu and when you order he then tells you what you

Stumbled across this place in a group of 8 friends. It was virtually empty and we we’re welcomed. Food was pretty good although I found the chicken burger a bit dry. Drinks were pricey. We spent a couple of hours here, prior to attending a gig at the hackney empire. Then we were told that they needed the table. We were still drinking at this point, (our bill was £330) and we were a bit put out that we handed been advised earlier.

It doesn't matter what you order, it will be delicious. We live in Canada but dine here at least once while in England. 3 times if we are lucky. Everytime I have lunched here , I have been welcomed like family. I've tried many dishes but do have favorites. I like the lamb and beef dishes but my sister's favorite is skate.

Great welcome on arrival. all the staff were very attentive and very professional.very varied menu with lots of specials. I was a bit concerned as some restaurants with many choices the food can sometimes be a bit iffy; but Oslo Court is not your average restaurant on many fronts. We all had the set lunch which I thought was great value.If you like things a bit quirky Give Oslo Court a try.PS our age range was from 9 yrs old to 75 yrs young

We were recommended to Oslo Court and visited with friends to celebrate both our Ruby Anniversary's, it seemed appropriate given the theme of the restaurant, did not disappoint, on arrival there is no sign for the restaurant just a door, straight through to the coats and then past the kitchen into a Tardis. I was amazed, we went for Saturday lunch and it was rammed, we were one of the last tables and as there were quite a few big tables I thought we would wait ages, on the contrary it was excellent service, the menu its self is huge add on the specials and your spoilt for choice, we had all three courses and food was amazing, it was actually nice to see some of the retro dishes, all served perfectly and nice size portions, the waiters are so friendly and attentive, without being in your face, they were very personable. Spoke to quite a few people who have been coming for over 25yrs and I can see why, will definitely go back soon.

Having read the reviews before our visit we thought we knew what to expect. The only thing we got correct was the portion size. The restaurant I feel has too many tables as there’s limited room to move but given its popularity I can see why they have gone for the number of tables they have. The food was plentiful with lots to choose both from the menu and the multitude of specials for but the quality wasn’t as high as you would expect. I’m not a fussy eater but my duck was overcooked to the pint of being very dry and the accompanying mange tout was stringy so I couldn’t eat them. Plenty of choice for dessert and an attractive plate of petit fours finished the meal nicely. Tip for if you are visiting, don’t wear anything with a tight wasteband and plan a walk through Regents Park once you’ve eaten!

We had lunch here on Friday. We have been regular visitors over the years but have just returned from a year or two in the West Country. I am pleased to say nothing has changed! Whilst it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, we had a great time! If you want fine dining, don’t come here, if you want a quiet, intimate lunch or dinner where everyone keeps to themselves, don’t come here. If you want a family run restaurant that is welcoming, convivial and generous, then this is the place to come. The restaurant on Friday was packed. Lots of multigenerational celebratory parties. Doesn’t matter that you don’t know these people personally, everyone talks (loudly!) to everyone, everyone shares, everyone wishes everyone else well. The food is good family food, despite the fancy titles. Generous portions, and requests for “just a little please” are studiously ignored by the waiters and the hosts!! Neil, the dessert conjurer is still tempting you to more than is good for you! Bad boy! Don’t be stuffy, engage with the atmosphere and you’ll have a good time!

Truly awful service. Went into the shop today, no one behind the counter and had to call out for service. A lady appeared at the bottom of the stair and said some would come and help. 10 minutes I waited for someone to serve me, when the gentleman appeared he didn't even apologies for the wait! To be honest his demeanor was like he was doing me a favour.
