A brand new restaurant and bar is set to open on Bold Street, bringing an authentic Middle Eastern and Mediterranean flavour to its already vibrant food scene.
House of Caesar will open at the end of September, offering a luxurious eatery with a rich, mixed menu of Arabic, Turkish, Syrian and Mediterranean dishes.
More than £300,000 has been spent already transforming the former Brazilian venue Maracana Sport Bar at 103 Bold Street into the House of Caesar.
Inside the lavish building, which was previously a bank many years ago, statement neon lighting will open up the venue, highlighting the dark painted walls and adding to the spacious feel created by the grand high ceilings.
A golden wooden parquet floor will spread beneath the tables and chairs, and embroidered fabrics and cushions create a comfortable and welcoming vibe, and a sense of the culture that’s influenced it.
Middle Eastern music will add to the atmosphere and ambience, and there will be live bands entertaining restaurant goers at weekends.
Food will focus on classic marinated meats, like chicken, lamb, and fish, with lots of rice dishes and salads and freshly-baked breads.
On the menu too will be those favourite Middle Eastern dishes like falafel and fetoosh, shish and kofta kebabs, shawarma and plant-based plates with colourful options like hummus.
A spokesperson said: “We are getting more and more excited as we get close to the launch.
“Bold Street is already thriving with so many different restaurants and cuisines, and we can’t wait to bring House of Caesar to that mix and add to that.”
