The classically styled bijous restaurant and cafe is housed in the ground floor of a building (on Westbourne Grove) in Notting Hill (formerly housed Tom's Kitchen) with the company's menswear collection upstairs. There's an Italian Effe coffee bar, as well as an outside garden terrace. Led by esteemed Roman Chef, Alessandro Verdenelli (previously of Shoreditch House and also with KX Members Club), the stunning Bar and Grill offers an Italian Transatlantic and healthy menu of classic favourites. Think Veal Milanese, Taglioni Cacio e Pepe, a house Cobb Salad and Pizza Bianca with truffles, all washed down with their signature martinis and expertly chosen wine list.
The stunning interior of the restaurant is similar to the original Mayfair - designed by the renowned Peter Mikic, the venue's interiors largely reflect the elegant, 1950s Italian style of the flagship restaurant on Dover Street, with a lighter, daytime feel. Think herringbone flooring, with a selection of ivory white, booth and scallop backed banquette seating. The charming outside terrace, Mediterranean in feel, has a terracotta, rhombus tiled wall, and several palm trees and plants.
