Tao Group Hospitality to launch Italian restaurant at upcoming London hotel The BoTree

The international hospitality group behind brands including Hakkasan and Yauatcha has partnered with the owners of The BoTree hotel, which is slated to open just off Oxford Street on Marylebone Lane this summer. LAVO Ristorante serves coastal Italian cuisine and currently has a single restaurant in Los Angeles. The upscale Italian menu will feature the likes of Tagliatelle al Limone created with marjoram, sweet butter and kaluga caviar; meatballs made with wagyu topped with whipped ricotta; and salt-baked sea bass. It will be the first non-Asian restaurant Tao Group Hospitality has launched in the UK. “We’re thrilled to be partnering with The BoTree on this new dining and entertainment concept and are excited to grow our London footprint with this addition to the West End’s fine dining scene when the hotel launches this summer,” says Tao Group Hospitality co-CEO Noah Tepperberg. “Introducing LAVO Ristorante to the city represents a truly exciting chapter for Tao Group and our development globally, and through this collaboration, we have an opportunity to showcase the star-quality and flair associated with our Los Angeles restaurant while creating a menu and experiences that feel relevant to London and its unique energy.” The 80-strong Tao Group Hospitality acquired Hakkasan Group in April 2021 and is the owner of dining and nightlife venues including Tao, Marquee, Beauty & Essex, Cathédrale, Little Sister, Omnia, Koma and more. Tao Group Hospitality’s corporate headquarters are located in New York City with outposts in each of its global city locations.
