The Connaught Grill to reopen after two-year closure

The Connaught Grill in London is to reopen tomorrow (3 March) after a two-year closure.

The restaurant, located in the five-red-AA-star Connaught hotel in Mayfair, relaunched in early 2020 but was forced to close due to the pandemic.

It is overseen by chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, who also runs an eponymous restaurant within the hotel.

The 46-cover Connaught Grill serves a pie of the day menu, which includes venison and chicken varieties, seabass en croute and shepherd's pie, and a traditional Sunday roast is carved on a restored silver trolley.

Vegetarian dishes include roasted and grilled aubergine topped with grilled goat's cheese and pomegranate; and chilled raw Scottish langoustines served in the shell.

The original Connaught Grill was one of London's most celebrated restaurants from 1955 to 2000. It closed in 2001 before reopening 20 years later in a different space within the hotel.
