Avi is a new French/American bistro from the Prince Arthur team, and they've brought the caviar

The team behind The Prince Arthur Belgravia, as well as Arthur's Market in Chelsea, are getting ready to open their next restaurant. This time around, they're going back to Belgravia and are teaming up with boutique hotel The Lowndes Hotel to launch Avi Bistrot. 

This will be a French/American brasserie, with a fair bit of showing from the caviar that was liberally used over at the Prince Arthur. At Avi, you'll find it on dishes like their New York fried chicken & caviar as well as caviar fish and chips. Elsewhere on the menu, you'll find the LA brioche noire lobster roll, entercôte baguette & fries and what they say is their signature - Le Big Mac avec Truffle. We think it's fair to expect a name change on that last one before they open. 

They'll also have pasta dishes like spicy tomato tequila paccheri or red claw lobster linguine and seafood dishes like Mozambique Squid with peri-peri sauce. Leaning away from the French/American theme, they'll also have sea bass tom yum. And as it's in a hotel, they'll have breakfast too (open to non-guests), with options like brioche French toast and and potato rösti with smoked chutoro.

Caviar makes a return on the cocktail list with The Tsar, which features Belvedere Vodka, topped with caviar, pickled onions and an olive (it sounds like their take on a martini). 

As for the look of the place, it seems to be done out in a classic French bistro style, and it's a small affair, seating only 45. They'll have a small corner bar too.
