The Connaught Grill is an intimate restaurant on the ground floor of The Connaught hotel at 16 Carlos Place in Mayfair. Under the direction of chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, it revisits the character of a classic British grill through an open kitchen, a wood burning grill and carefully crafted contemporary interiors.
British produce anchors the menu, with the fire used to bring clarity and depth to prime meat, game and seafood. Ingredients such as langoustines, Dover sole, wild sea bass and Wagyu beef show the breadth of the offer, while seasonal dishes allow the kitchen to work with what is at its best.
Sunday lunch is a distinct part of the restaurant’s identity. Hereford beef and organic chicken are carved from a silver trolley, and a wild sea bass en croûte provides an elaborate seafood centrepiece, supported by traditional accompaniments and other seasonal choices.
Tableside service adds theatre without overwhelming the food, extending from carving to the flames and citrus aromas of crêpes Suzette. A substantial wine list drawn from The Connaught’s cellar completes a dining experience designed for celebratory meals, unhurried lunches and polished Mayfair dinners.
