“ A great hidden away gem. It’s the second time I’ve been and it was even better than the first. Atmosphere was incredible, interior is beautiful, service was very friendly, food was fantastic. Perfect for visiting during the summer. I would definitely recommend the mussels and the octopus roll. ”
“ This was my second time back and it was a spontaneous night. We wasn’t dressed up so we wasn’t sure if it was an issue but we were welcomed with open arms. We were planning to come back but because we were in the area we decided to just try and Taya managed to squeeze us in and who was such a sweetheart. The food was impeccable, the drinks! Our favourite. The sun setting in the back was so Beautiful. We’ll be back for our third visit really soon for a full night of enjoyment. One thing I can’t stop thinking about is how everyone’s attitude is top tier. Everyone greets you, speaks nicely and all have really great etiquette. Special shout out to the bar tender because the frozen margaritas are insaneeeeeee. ”
“ Razia was a really helpful & a gracious server. The food was delicious, especially the octopus, artichokes, boquerones, prawns, and ceviche (we basically ordered one of everything ). Thank you for a lovely welcome back to London!! If you make it for sunset, take in the stunning views with a tasty cocktail ”
“ Took my wife here for lunch to celebrate our 22nd Wedding anniversary with our two beautiful daughters. Lovely ambience and attentive service. Specially chose this restaurant for their seafood menu and we went unrepentantly for the Afternoon Sea combo of Cousteau, Calypso and Simone chilled on ice. What a delight! Absolutely nothing short of spectacular. Fresh oysters, succulent prawns, sweet lobster and many more are presented beautifully, showcasing the incredible quality and freshness of their ingredients. Each delectable bite is a celebration of the ocean, bursting with freshness and flavour. Seabird London truly delivers an unforgettable dining experience to celebrate our special occasion. The ambience, decor and rooftop setting more than provides a perfect tone for a luxurious seafood feast. Highly recommended! ”
“ We had the perfect experience. Our waiter was helpful, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the food. We loved learning about the oysters, and he helped us choose from the menu. The food was just gorgeous, the view fabulous, and the restaurant relaxed. ”
“ My friend Kerry and I had the best lunch here — the food was seriously good, and our amazing server Serena made the whole experience unforgettable. She was hilarious, full of great knowledge, and even shared the most brilliant story about the oysters. The cherry on top? She gave us a gold oyster shell to take home! Honestly, next-level service and such a fun vibe. ”
“ Where does one start when reviewing a 5-star restaurant. From the entrance to the Hoxton, you'll be treated by an amazing staff. They're courteous and welcoming in their demeanor. My guest and I were unaware that Seabird was a rooftop experience. Much to our suprise and delight, this was exactly what we were looking for in a post theater dining experience. The ambiance is one which you would expect to find in Malibu, CA, or Positano italy. Clean lines with intimate lighting and natural light beaming from every angle. The drink menu is on par with a Michelin star experience. Appetizers and main courses are plentiful and delectable. We thoroughly enjoyed the lobster rice. It is a must-have. If given the option, ask for Yana! She is pleasant and professional with great recommendations. There are not enough words to describe the experience one gets when visiting Seabird. We will definitely be back to dine again soon. ”
“ Seabird is a stunning gem in the heart of London, offering breathtaking views across the city skyline and a truly memorable dining experience. It’s a tapas-style seafood menu with highlights including the rich, flavourful mussels and the perfectly balanced chorizo and octopus skewer. Service is faultless - friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate, especially when guiding you through the oyster selection. While it does sit at the higher end of the price range, the combination of exceptional food, impeccable service and an unbeatable setting makes it well worth the investment. ”
