Chef Tom Sellers opening Dovetale in Mayfair next month

20 June 2023

You couldn't really get more of a prime London spot to open a restaurant than the corner of Piccadilly and Berkeley Street, so Tom Sellers has chosen well for his next venture. The chef behind two Michelin-starred Restaurant Story, is opening Dovetale at the upcoming 1 Hotel Mayfair. It's the hotel group's first UK hotel and they say it's going to bring "eco-conscious luxury and contemporary design to London".

We're told the restaurant will have "a deep respect for seasonal produce". Examples of dishes on the launch menu include:

Same-day made English burrata with Amardo Manni ‘oil of life’ olive oil

  • Day boat caught sole Veronique
  • Grand marnier soufflé with tonka bean crème anglaise.

And we're also keen to see the Knickerbocker Glory trolly, from which they'll make the dessert tableside. 

Next to the restaurant you'll find the hotel's cocktail bar, Dover Yard, run by Matteo Carretta who used to head up the bar at Davies and Brook before becoming Director of Beverage at Claridge's. And, if you fancy alfresco dining, you can head to Dovetale's outdoor terrace which will have a hammered copper fireplace and pergola, plus a private dining space.
