Claro is welcoming 2026 with an exclusive festive dining experience in the heart of St James’s. The modern Mediterranean restaurant, infused with refined Middle Eastern influences, is offering a specially curated menu for New Year’s Eve, designed to celebrate seasonal British produce with its signature bold, ingredient-led cooking – with a celebratory edge.
On the evening, diners can enjoy a choice of four- or five-course menus. Headline dishes include Venison Tartare with Potato Pavé, “Cacio e Pepe,” Freekeh Tagliolini with Leeks and Wild Mushrooms, alongside indulgent desserts such as Black Coffee Madeleine with Warm Cardamom Toffee and Hazelnut Gelato, or Malabi – a Middle Eastern rose milk pudding with crispy cinnamon filo, berries, candied pistachios, and pomegranate syrup.
The event promises a dynamic atmosphere, with a live DJ lined up from 7pm until 1am to carry guests through the evening, whether arriving early for a pre-party dinner or staying late for the countdown itself.
Early seating is available from 6–7pm, with later seating available from 8:30–9:30pm for those opting for the five-course menu. 10pm arrivals can enjoy the bar experience, including bar snacks and a bottle of sparkling wine to share. Prices for the night start at £120 per person for the four-course menu, £150 per person for the five-course menu including sparkling wine, and £150 for the bar experience (including the sparkling wine).
Claro, led by Head Chef Shadi Issawy and guided by acclaimed chef Ran Shmueli, brings the spirit of its iconic Tel Aviv restaurant to London. The kitchen champions seasonal British produce, combined with aromatic herbs, spices, and fresh vegetables, to deliver authentic but inventive Mediterranean dishes. The restaurant itself is set in a historic listed building in the heart of one of London’s most exclusive postcodes, creating a sophisticated backdrop for this exclusive celebration, and an elegant setting to welcome the New Year.
