- Looks like Mazi is coming to Mayfair
It's been over a decade since Mazi opened its doors in Notting Hill. The refined Greek food restaurant by Adrien Carre and Christina Mouratoglou has since spawned sibling establishment Suzi Tros, also in Notting Hill, but it's about to head into central London.
It looks like they're planning to open in the old Pizza Express building opposite The Guinea on Bruton Place. The space, you may remember, was briefly taken over
... - Mayfair gets a new boutique hotel with The Shepherd Mayfair
There have been a lot of fancy new Mayfair hotels opening of late, from the Mandarin Oriental to the upcoming Chancery Rosewood on Grosvenor Square. And now another is added to the list, with this one planned as more of a boutique affair.
The Shepherd Mayfair has taken over what used to be the Park Lane Mews Hotel, just off Park Lane and not too far from Shepherd Market

In the heart of Mayfair, you'll find more than a smattering of Michelin-starred restaurants. But it's not all about the 10-course tasting menus. Here's our pick of the very best restaurants in Mayfair.
- Is Richard Caring's Le Caprice coming back to Mayfair?
3/7/25 update - We've been hearing that Le Caprice might not be opening here after all. We'll have to wait and see. Original story follows.
It had been rumoured for months, but now we have confirmation - Le Caprice is coming back, opening at the new Chancery Rosewood in Mayfair.
But hasn't Le Caprice already returned, you ask? Well, while
- Noren sake and sushi bar is taking over the Roji space in Mayfair
We'd been wondering what would happen to Roji omakase bar, since chefs Tamas Naszai and Tomoko Hasegawa moved over to open the excellent Himi in Carnaby - and now we know.
Next door to Chisou in Mayfair, Roji won't be relaunching as an omakase bar. Instead, much like Himi,
... - 74 Duke is a Parisian-style brasserie in Mayfair from the people behind Supernova

The team behind Supernova, Creme and North Audley Canteen know how to make a big splash with their openings. The original Supernova was a massive hit and it looks like their upcoming Mayfair outpost will be
... - Top New York bar Dante is popping up in Claridge's for a month
Caffe Dante has had quite a history in New York, having originally been established back in 1915. However, its current iteration launched as Dante back in 2015, and the restaurant and bar have since won heaps of accolades in the decade since.
But if you haven't managed to make it over to New York to check it out, Dante is coming to London instead. It'll be taking over the bar
... - Test Driving Mr Porter, the steakhouse meets cocktail lounge on Park Lane
Taking over the old Trader Vic's spot downstairs at the Hilton on Park Lane is a shiny new steakhouse Mr Porter. We descended the spiral staircase to check it out.
- Test Driving Row on 5, Jason Atherton's flagship restaurant which deserves the second star it's chasing
Jason Atherton's new flagship restaurant is Row on 5 on Savile Row, which earned a Michelin star in almost record time. We went in to try it out and left thinking a second star seems all but inevitable.
- Supernova are bringing their burgers to Mayfair
When they opened in Soho last year, Supernova were an instant hit. It certainly helped that they carefully cultivated scarcity by only opening at certain days and times to start with. That meant that queues built up quickly and soon one of their burgers became the thing to try.
It was also right at the forefront of the smash burger revolution that's continued ever since, and saw rivals
... - The Los Mochis team head to Mayfair with a brand new restaurant concept
Mayfair residents wondering what's happening over at the old Ruya site on Upper Grosvenor Street, next to Corrigan's, should know that they'll have a new restaurant on their doorstep before the end of the year. Turns out that it's been bought by the Thesleff Group which is behind Los Mochis in Notting Hill, Sale e Pepe in Knightsbridge and the Juno and Luna omakase restaurants.
Right now, we don't
... - Atomix chef Junghyun Park is opening Kiji Korean BBQ in the heart of Mayfair
Well this IS a story. If you've been roaming through Mayfair recently and wondered what's happening with the building site on the corner of Curzon Street and Bolton Street (where Mirabelle used to be), then we have big news for you. It's going to be the first UK restaurant from acclaimed New York restaurant duo Ellia and Junghyun Park.
The pair are behind Atomix, which right now not only boasts two
... - Motcombs Mayfair takes over at Pollen Street
The last year has seen a fair bit of upheaval over on Pollen Street. First Jason Atherton announced he was turning his Michelin-starred flagship restaurant into burger bar Mary's. That duly opened, with the promise of a full revamp this spring. The revamp didn't happen but what did happen was that Atherton ended up closing the restaurant altogether and selling it to another restaurant group,
... - Jason Atherton closes Mary's, the original Pollen Street Social site
Around this time last year, Jason Atherton announced the closure of his (then) flagship restaurant Pollen Street Social. A few months later, in August, that restaurant was given a light do-over and replaced by grill restaurant Mary's.
There were originally plans to completely revamp the place and fully relaunch the restaurant earlier this year, but that never materialised. Now,
... - Lilli by Akira Back sees the chef already lining up his second hotel restaurant in London
14/3/25 - updated with opening date
Seemingly not happy with having two restaurants in the nearby Mandarin Oriental Mayfair, chef Akira Back already has another hotel restaurant lined up, barely a 15-minute walk away.
This time, it's in the revamped The Montcalm hotel in Mayfair, now renamed Montcalm Mayfair. The restaurant
