BENNO
Chef Jonathan Benno’s career spans more than three decades working in and running some of the world’s most celebrated kitchens, including Per Se and Lincoln Ristorante. After discovering the land marked hotel The Evelyn, which dates back to 1905, he saw a unique opportunity to build his first eponymous fine-dining restaurant in the storied space. The cuisine reflects the breadth of Chef Benno's culinary experience, showcasing classic French technique and contemporary Italian cooking, as well as broadening horizons to explore the coastal Mediterranean.

BAR BENNO
Bar Benno is Chef Benno’s very first Parisian-style bistro, with a menu refined by his years of French culinary experience and a focus on evoking the warmth of classic French fare. Bar Benno is the chef’s homage to the bistronomy movement in Paris, where lauded chefs have opened more casual restaurants with an emphasis on cuisine and ingredients, but without the operating costs of their higher end establishments. Bar Benno will allow the chef to elevate traditional dishes, combining the skill and execution that garnered him his Michelin star with a focus on quality, seasonality, and accessibility that diners can enjoy multiple times a week.
