A luxury Mayfair restaurant is re-opening its doors this month

The Square, a restaurant in Mayfair, is to re-open on Bruton Street on November 20.

Under the ownership of MARC (Marlon Abela Restaurant Corporation), a major re-design coupled with the appointment of Clément Leroy to the role of executive chef, is to mark a new chapter in The Square’s story, following the departure of Philip Howard in 2016.

Prior to his move to London, Leroy held the position of executive chef at Auberge du Jeu de Paume, in Chantilly. He was also part of the team that helped Guy Savoy’s Paris restaurant win its third Michelin star in 2002, with whom he worked for 10 years.

A wine list is to be an integral part of The Square’s service, capitalising on long associations with top winemakers and importers.

Head sommelier, Andrea Zarbett, has curated a list that celebrates French roots, whilst also showcasing a selection of classics and lesser known examples from all over Europe and the likes of South Africa.

The 80-cover restaurant, including a private dining room and bar seating, has been re-designed by London-based agency Virgile + Partners, whose previous work includes design projects for The Greenhouse and Morton’s Club.

The Square draws inspiration from Mayfair’s art galleries, too, with the new concept to reflect an urban and minimal aesthetic.

The main dining area will be a perfect square with dark parquet flooring, whilst square glass blocks will be used in the external windows and internal walls will allow for natural light to penetrate the space.

Upon opening in November, the team behind The Square looks to usher in a new era which offers top food, wine, service and design at this Mayfair location.
