High-end Chinese to open on Mayfair's Curzon Street

20 February 2020

The owners of some of Mayfair's finest Indian restaurants are to bring a high-end Chinese concept to the area’s Curzon Street in the spring.

This is the third deal Restaurant Property have worked on with The Leela Group in Mayfair, who are behind Bombay Bustle in Maddox Street and Jamavar in Mount Street.

The soon-to-open 85-cover Chinese concept, which will be split over four floors, is expected to launch in May.

The 3,324 sq ft site on Curzon Street has an annual rent of £220,000 with a lease running until 2037 and it was previously occupied by Indian restaurant Matsya, which Restaurant Property acted for.

David Rawlinson, founding director at Restaurant Property, said: “Mayfair continues to attract significant international interest.

“Despite a challenging 2019, there are grass roots signs of confidence returning to parts of the sector and premium prices starting to rise over 2020.”

This deal, which was completed off-market, is the latest deal the company has worked on in the area - having recently been behind the deal that brought Amazonico, the rainforest-themed restaurant, to Berkeley Square.

No other agents were involved in the Leela Group deal.
