Situated on level 33 of The Shard, Hutong at The Shard serves the fascinating and diverse cuisines of Northern China and is based on the much-loved restaurant of the same name in Hong Kong. Hutong at The Shard’s cuisine takes its inspiration from the dishes served in the imperial palaces of what was then Peking. Based on the ‘Lu school’ cuisine of Shandong Province, the menu artfully captures the subtlety and surprises of Northern Chinese cooking. A cocktail selection inspired by ingredients used in traditional Chinese medicine and stunning interior, complete with traditional Chinese red lanterns and beautiful hand-carved wood-panelled ‘Moon Gates’, offer London diners a new destination restaurant with panoramic views over London’s skyline.

    The venue is nice but the chairs were very uncomfortable. We had the experience menu which consisted of 5 dishes, all were good but I expected more this restaurant. Service was ok too. On the whole I’d say the experience was mediocre which is not good enough considering the prices.

    The service we got that day was not ideal. The waitress were keep pushing us to order ,to eat and gave us a strong impression of asking us to leave soon for their next table with quite a pressure. With this kind price, we don't get to sat down for 2 hours. Left our food quite a lot without touched. If we knew there is a restricted timeframe for dining, we would not choose Hutong for dinning for sure. Or they really should inform us while we did the booking. Unfortunately, our experience ended up pretty awkward with our clients to finish earlier so the waiter can clean the table. This is definitely not what we expect to dine in the Shard (which we don't event close to the window at all), the noise was way too loud to have normal conversation in the 4 people table. We need to raise our voices while talking. Re the foods, which were not impressive at all, you definitely can get better chinses foods with most of Chinese restaurant in London. Will not come next time.

    I went there about 10 days ago the food was good but they had run out of their best dish, the duck, and some of the staff was really unaccommodating and fixated when we asked them to move our table.

    Disappointing. Dim sum, prawn and duck were excellent beef wasn't so good and outrageously hot, chocolate tart for desert was from a supermarket. Not what I expect for a menu @ £100 each.

    I must say I am bit disappointed with Hutong. After booking a table well advance for our wedding anniversary and asking for a window table we were sat right in the middle of the restaurant. I called up the restaurant and advised them that we will have our baby with us therefore we require a bit more room for his stroller. However, as we were sat in the middle of the restaurant it was a bit congested and very uneasy for my seven month old. Upon sitting down we were told that they have ran out of crispy duck, which was unacceptable as I booked for the Signature menu. I advised the person serving us that I booked the signature menu, she said that she will double check with the kitchen. It turned out that they had the duck after all! The service was not great and we received duck before even anyone took our drinks order. We had to get attention from the restaurant staff to place drinks order. Once the food arrived it was nice and the portions were good. All in all I feel that our first anniversary lunch with our baby could have been a lot better and enjoyable if the restaurant was attentive to my original needs and requirements.

    We had a great evening. An amazing setting which really made the evening special and we were lucky enough to have a table by the window the staff could not have been more helpful or attentive. the food was really good although in hindsight, a couple of the dishes were smaller than we'd expected. But it was very delicious - we particularly liked the sharing platter of dim sum. Gorgeously presented and very delicious. One further thought was that the cocktails at £15 were not that special.... maybe it was just the choice we made but I think they could up their game a little here in terms of presentation etc.

    Sullen person at check-in and to be quite frank bordering on plain rude. We had made a last minute booking which he said he couldn’t find. He tried to tell us we had the wrong day only to finally discover he was wrong. Unapologetic. Waiter only 2 weeks on the job job with no help. I have been coming to Hutong since it opened and have always loved if. We live down the road. Sadly I won’t be coming back again. Ridiculously overpriced and because the restaurant is always full because of its spectacular location, I guess no-one cares any more. Another post Covid fail by the looks of it.

    The bartending staff couldn’t care any less that we were there or to help us. We didn’t actually get our drinks until we were already seated at our table. After 30 minutes. Everyone else around us got their drinks in a very timely manner though. Food was fine. The only things that made our experience was exceptional views plus the toilet windows.

    I had high hopes but was overall not that impressed by the food. The starters were lacking salt and mains were too salty. Overall taste very average too. Spring rolls were served well but again taste was nothing special. I don't think this place is worth the price you pay, there are much better places to go.

    My experience I can't believe I feel so bad and disappointed with this visited. I go to this restaurant many times every time I take time off from work and take time for travel, it's my special day The waiter came to take the order, and confirmed the food we ordered ( we ordered stater and main course) the starter come on time after the main cours waiter told us the duck was no more in restaurant . I felt very bad because I waiting for the food and I’m so hungry . I come to the restaurant to eat Duck , but I think it's impossible duck furnished at 3 pm ? And if finished why she take my order? And she told us to order something different, I don’t think anyone will be happy with this happening, I came back home and very disappointed
