Mazarine is a French restaurant on Hanover Square in central London. It occupies a ground floor address directly overlooking the square, positioned among offices, retail units and hospitality venues that draw consistent footfall throughout the week. The restaurant is developed by Khaled Dandachi and Fred Srouchi, the team behind Sparrow Italia in Mayfair. The interior is designed by Bolt Design, an American studio, and features warm, contemporary finishes that align with the restaurant’s coastal French theme. The dining room is arranged as a single open area, with seating organised around the bar and the main kitchen pass.
The menu focuses on French coastal cooking, with seafood forming the centre of the offer. The kitchen is led by a chef previously at LPM, and the menu includes starters, small plates, salads, main dishes, sharing plates and desserts. A raw bar contributes additional cold seafood options. Dishes featured on the opening menu include smoked eel croquettes, salade Niçoise, octopus with Béarnaise sauce, raviolo of Cornish crab with lobster broth and citronelle, grand aïoli with salt cod, sea urchin, langoustines and seasonal vegetables, and meat dishes such as coquelet with piment d’Espelette and aged filet de boeuf with truffle sauce. Desserts follow a classic French format.
The wine list covers French and international bottles selected to complement the seafood led menu. Cocktails and non alcoholic drinks are available throughout lunch and dinner service. The service style aims to be attentive and personal, consistent with the restaurant’s broader approach to hospitality.
Mazarine serves lunch and dinner throughout the week, attracting local office workers, visitors to the area and guests from nearby hotels. Its location near Oxford Circus and Bond Street provides strong transport links. With its focus on coastal French cooking, raw bar, contemporary interior and prominent Hanover Square address, Mazarine operates as part of the group of modern fine dining restaurants within central London.
