Less than a year after launching, the first new Sartoria has already closed.
Late last year, after years as a standalone Mayfair restaurant (having originally opened with chef Francesco Mazzei), Sartoria was relaunched as a small group of restaurants. Now under the ownership of The Evolv Collection (what used to be D&D), a slow rollout began. First up was a takeover of what was Launceston Place. Previously run by chef Ben Murphy (now at 74 Charlotte Street), the restaurant had been closed for a year before Sartoria took its place in November 2025.
We're not precisely sure when the restaurant shut its doors, but it looks like being in the past month.
No reason has been given about the closure and we're yet to see if Evolv pivots the site into one of their other brands, like Chop House. The original Sartoria and the City version remain, but we'll have to wait to see if the planned rollout of the brand has stalled.
