Views were immaculate 5 stars. Food the shrimp tempura was 5 stars the California roll sushi was 4 stars. My main course and the most expensive the Australian Wagyu with truffles was such a disappointment the cut had lots a fat I couldn’t even chew through it 2 stars. This place is definitely worth the visit just for the beautiful views of London!

Th8s is by far the best view of London. 52 floors above in the Shard the atmosphere is exceptional. A quiet upscale lounge with great drinks and food. The shared platters are a great combination. Service was great. Yes it’s expensive but worth it.

I had high hopes for this place due to the wonderful views and its reputation for special occasions. However, my experience left much to be desired. While I understand that quality comes at a cost, the level of service we received was far from acceptable.My wife and I were lucky enough to secure a window table, but our excitement quickly waned. We sat there for a good 20 minutes without a single greeting or acknowledgment from the staff. We had to actively flag down the host just to place our drink order.After what felt like an eternity, we were finally able to place our food order thanks to a diligent worker named Luis. We could see and hear him expressing our frustrations to a manager, but it was disheartening that the manager didn't even glance our way or seem remotely concerned.Adding insult to injury, Luis had the audacity to remind us of our 90-minute seating limit and warned that we would have to be relocated when our time was up. This left us feeling even more unwelcome and rushed.In hindsight, we should have opted for dinner at the 35th-floor Ting Restaurant, as it's clear that this particular establishment has a lot of room for improvement in terms of service. Very, very disappointed with our experience.

Superb. Not cheap, but absoluty superb. If you fancy sitting next to the window with amazing view, you'll have to wait a bit but is definitely very much worth. Music is great in the background, staff is very professional again in the background. I love the place and would recommend it with pleasure.

We had drinks at Gong after dinner and thoroughly enjoyed it.The bar is very cosy, has beautiful interior and feels very luxurious.We sat in the third row for about half an hour before being moved to a window spot. The view from the windows at night is breathtaking and so special.We had cocktails and enjoyed these too. They are definitely overpriced (starting at 25 pounds) and don’t taste as special as the price and menu description suggests.The service was exceptional though and we received complimentary olives and nuts.We feel the overall experience justifies the price!

We visited the wonderful venue for few drinks. We are usually very picky but we were impressed by the quality and taste of all the different drinks we had. Stunning service, the waiter who looked after us tonight was just amazing and delivered a proper service by paying attention to all the details and all our needs, I wish I asked for his name to mention him, great job. Definitely recommend and will definitely be back! Thank you

Definitely worth booking in advance as it gets very busy after work. Gong is easy to get to and the view is stunning, so it’s something you should see when visiting London. On the other hand, it’s crazy expensive and drinks are not that good, so you might leave a bit disappointed.

GŎNG, perched atop the Shard, is a swanky spot with some seriously impressive views of London. The vibe is dark and moody, with velvet seating and dimmed lighting. The cocktails are on point, made with fancy ingredients and fancy techniques. The staff is super attentive and makes sure you're all set.The only downside is the price. The cocktails are a whopping £25 each, which is a bit steep. But if you're looking for a special occasion spot to splurge on, GŎNG is definitely worth considering. Just be prepared to open your wallet a bit wider.

I had a Cocktail Masterclass here and it was such a good experience. We booked this through virgin experience and we were in a small group with two other girls. The view was absolutely amazing and the host was very kind and humble. We made variety of cocktails. I’d wanted to go back but I can’t seem to find the option anymore!

Stopped for a cocktail while visiting from America. The space is beautiful! You can see most of London from the top. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. The prices reflected the location with a couple of the cocktails reaching over 50 pounds each. Know that before you go. We enjoyed ourselves!
