A GRAND DESIGN
The interior features opulent and polished brass finishes that perfectly complement the walnut hardwood flooring and rich red and forest green colour scheme. Adding to its grandeur, the ceiling boasts 24k gold leaves, each placed by hand. Massive chandeliers lend the front dining area a warm touch.
The restaurant seats 150 diners in the main dining hall and its three private dining rooms named after London's upscale neighbourhoods: Chelsea, Soho and Mayfair. The space is furnished with custom leather chairs that are designed with comfort in mind. Additionally, large monochrome portraits of British icons such as Mick Jagger, Sean Connery and Twiggy, adorn the walls.
