   Birthday lunch at Oblix at the Shard. Booked the set lunch menu - we were promptly shown to a table and greeted by our designated waiter. The set menu was explained and we made our selections accordingly. Good options available and it was tricky to settle on what to try. My starter was fantastic - chose the crispy buttermilk chicken which was a generous portion and very tasty. The feedback on the charred salmon was that it was nice but the chicken was preferred. I chose for my main the roasted prawns with truffle & parmesan fries which was also very good. The roasted baby chicken also very tasty. The black forest chocolate & cherries was very rich and delicious. Managed to polish this off even after two courses. One suggestion would be to offer the set menu as a two or three course set. The generous portions meant we were very full indeed! In general, the food was very well presented and the team professional and friendly. There was an unusually long wait for the dessert - seems there was problem with getting these out but we were offered complimentary tea and coffee and in the final bill, the service charge was removed. Overall a good experience - being on the 32nd floor with it's view of London and the general decor did feel like a special occasion and the birthday lunch experience was enjoyable and relaxed.

   I had a fantastic dining experience at Oblix. Everything about this restaurant exceeded expectations—the ambience, food, and service were all exceptional. The Caesar salad was fresh and flavorful, perfectly balanced with crisp romaine, creamy dressing, and just the right amount of parmesan. The chicken dish was outstanding—tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Dessert was an absolute highlight, with each bite being pure indulgence. The restaurant itself boasts a stunning atmosphere, with breathtaking views that make the meal even more special. The service was impeccable—attentive, friendly, and professional. Oblix is the perfect spot for a special occasion, date night, or just an unforgettable meal. Highly recommended!

   No. En la conveniencia de la cercanía y la fama de la torre Shard, la hora del té parecía una gran ocurrencia. Pasó más de una hora entre los sándwiches y el resto de los bocadillos, hasta no llamar la atención del personal no había interés en servirnos (y eran más empleados que comensales). El promedio de sabor fue de aceptable a deplorable. Si bien nos compensaron en la cuenta con la gratuidad de las bebidas (muchas gracias) la vista a la ciudad y el puente de la torre son lo único destacable de nuestra tarde en Aquashard… sí eso es lo que buscas lo tendrás, por lo demás, ni el tiempo ni las calorías valen la pena.

   Un lieu d'exception. Un des plus beau restaurant que j'ai pu faire. Mais hors de prix. Les quantités sont insuffisante et c'est cher pour ce que c'est. Je pense que nous payons avant tout le lieu avec cette vue imprenable.

   Friendly welcome and impeccable service. One of the best views in London but don’t be distracted from the food, which was beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. A fusion of European and Asian dishes with the highest quality ingredient. Definitely a special occasion destination.

   Service is terrible as they race you through your 2hr window to sit, eat and leave. The Assistant Manager actually took my credit card from the table without my permission and wanted to charge the card on the hand held terminal. We are in London monthly and my wife and I will NEVER go to Oblix again. There are way better choices in London. Scott’s in Mayfair as an example. Save your time and money this is a Tourist Trap.
