Penelope's, part of the AMANO Group, is redefining London’s dining and nightlife scene. In 2024, Penelope’s won Best Luxury Restaurant at the British Food Awards, a testament to its culinary excellence. Executive Chef Fez Ozalgan curates a menu that merges Middle Eastern and Spanish flavors, using the finest ingredients. The restaurant’s ambiance is equally compelling, with mirrored ceilings, plush seating, and dramatic lighting. The experience is further enhanced by the open kitchen, offering diners a front-row view of the culinary artistry. Named after founder Ariel Schiff’s daughter, the restaurant is a heartfelt tribute to the vibrant cultures of Spain and Tel Aviv. Schiff describes Penelope’s as "truly a matter of the heart," a place where the exuberance of Berlin meets the sophistication of London. On weekends, Penelope’s transforms into a lively party scene, featuring London DJs and the legendary Isramani dinner party, imported from Berlin.
