Description
The Greenhouse first opened its door to Mayfair's discerning customers in 1977 and has since been associated with fine-dining excellence. Currently, run under the helm of Chef Arnaud Bignon, the restaurant has won and retained a second Michelin star since 2014. Chef Bignon's experience prior to his move to London helps explain his unique take on French cuisine.
Having learned French precision at as Eric Frenchon's three Michelin-starred Epicure in Paris, Chef Bignon then held the post of head chef at Spondi in Athens, where he began to marry exotic ingredients with more familiar culinary techniques. However, Chef Bignon’s culinary passion was inspired by his grandfather’s garden in France and so the Chef's aim to perfect harmony and balance in every dish, often playing with fresh and original flavour combinations but always championing the best quality produce..
Restrained décor and a warm welcome through a tree-lined entrance, at The Greenhouse you'll enjoy Chef Bignon’s acclaimed light touch on classic French cuisine. An irresistible selection of dishes makes up this exciting Discovery Tasting Menu. Each dish is founded on the finest seasonal ingredients from the highest quality sources.
The Greenhouse is one of only four restaurants in the world to win the Wine Spectator Grand Award every year since 2005. The restaurant's Sommelier, Marc Piquet, has put together perfect accompaniments to each meal, from one of London’s finest wine lists.
