British chef Jason Atherton is slated to open three new restaurants at Dubai’s Grosvenor House

After leaving Marina Social, renowned chef Jason Atherton has confirmed a trio of concepts at the Luxury Collection Hotel Grosvenor House. Plans include: City Social Dubai, a 140-cover restaurant serving modern cuisine; Seven Tides, a cocktail venue with a Japanese undertone; and a fine-dining concept on the 43rd, 44th, and 45th floor of the hotel.

In a statement, Chef Atherton said: “After seven successful years at Marina Social, I have taken the tough decision to end my partnership with Intercontinental Hotel Group. It has been a fantastic project to be part of and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the whole Marina Social team, IHG, Select Properties, Rahail, and Antje, for believing in our vision and supporting a journey that is close to my heart. It is now time for a different direction and to bring a new style of dining to Dubai.”
