Maison Verte

Marylebone · Since 2018

Seasonal European cooking, quietly done.

A candlelit forty-cover room in the back streets of Marylebone. Ingredients from small British farms, a wine list built for lingering, service that never hurries you.

Our story

A room built for long evenings.

Maison Verte opened in 2018 in a former framer's shop on Elderberry Lane. Chef-owner Émilie Rousseau trained at Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons and L'Enclume before returning to London to cook the food she missed most: uncomplicated, ingredient-led, unmistakably French with a British larder.

The menu changes with the seasons and often with the morning's delivery. Our sommelier Théo curates a list that leans towards small, family-run producers from the Loire, Jura and Piedmont.

Chef-owner

Émilie Rousseau

Born in Lyon, trained in Oxfordshire and Cumbria, Émilie has cooked in some of Britain's most quietly serious kitchens. She opened Maison Verte to build somewhere that felt less like a restaurant and more like eating in a friend's dining room — if that friend happened to have a Michelin CV.

"I want people to arrive at 7 and lose track of time. That's the whole thing."
