GAIA Mayfair is a Greek Mediterranean restaurant at 50 Dover Street. Created by chef Izu Ani and restaurateur Evgeny Kuzin, the London dining room brings a refined but sociable interpretation of Greek hospitality to Mayfair.
The menu is intended to travel across the table, with mezze, salads and warm starters encouraging guests to share. Olive oil, herbs, citrus and carefully handled vegetables provide freshness and balance before richer grilled dishes arrive.
Fish and seafood are central to the restaurant’s Mediterranean character, joined by meat from the grill and other substantial plates. The approach keeps the principal ingredient recognisable while using classic Greek combinations to build depth and contrast.
A standalone bar on the first floor adds cocktails and a separate place to begin or extend the evening. GAIA Mayfair is especially well suited to celebrations and group dinners where polished service, shared food and an energetic atmosphere are part of the occasion.
Address: 50 Dover Street, Mayfair, London W1S 4NY, England
