Oslo Court - London Restaurant Reviews | Hardens
“Whether you’re 70, 80 or 90 years old: the place to party!”
This priceless veteran, quirkily tucked away at the foot of a Regent’s Park apartment block, is “a top choice for senior citizens” across north London, “who want to take out 2-3 generations of their family for a celebratory dinner”.
by “unfailing” staff of the old school, in a “wonderfully camp”, “plush, pink and comfortable” (if “cramped”) setting.
Top Tip – “birthday cakes can be pre-ordered free for parties of 4+, and the singing’s not bad either!”
Review of British London restaurant Oslo Court by Andy Hayler in ...
staff drinks food menu value
The dining rooms seats 80 odd guests at one time and the décor is pink: very pink.
The room is carpeted so noise levels are manageable, the lighting levels enable you to read the menu without a torch and the chairs are very comfortable: if only I could say the same of most London dining rooms.
Waiters wear dinner jackets and sweep the tables clear of crumbs between courses; it is that sort of a place.
The menu is a museum piece – where else in London can you see melba toast, “steak Diane” and “veal Holstein”?
The list of daily specials recited by the waiter is longer than the entire menu at many restaurants.

The week began with hopes raised by scientists, who were declaring good news for a change.
I was meeting an actress who had been dieting for a part and when she arrived, she fell upon the crudités with the voracity of John Prescott on seeing a tin of condensed milk.
Staff clucked and fussed over us and brought me glass after glass of house wine (all excellent) and as we were now both well into Eighties mode, we ordered steak.
The waiter in charge of puddings is clearly a stalwart and ‘personality’ – he was wearing a waistcoat of many colours – and his camp enthusiasm made a pudding impossible to refuse.
Warm and comfortable, it stands for good, old-fashioned courtesy and first-rate service, as well as a dinner guaranteed to leave you replete.
