The Automat

Charismatic restaurateur and architect Carlos Almada arrived in London five years ago with a vision to create a venue with New York style for international trendsetters. “It’s all about New Yorkers” he says. Since then Almada has successfully built one of Mayfair’s hottest eateries, Automat- where London bound celebrities head for refined yet relaxed dining at the stylish brasserie. Automat serves delicious fare including classics such as Steak Tartare, Mac & Cheese, and the best imported Nebraska USDA grade beef, among many others. Having whetted London’s pleasure seeking appetite with the chic Automat, Carlos has now introduced a sexy new venue. Almada is a fine dining silver service restaurant, beautifully designed in an Almada style that can be described as Murder on the Orient Express meets Frank Lloyd Wright and ’30s Palm Springs, which transforms into nightclub as the night approaches and the lights dim down. Almada has quickly become the hottest spot in town, as Londoners love its elegant and cozy atmosphere, a blend of 1920’s New York and old school California glamour. Private and discreet, Almada hosts an elite group of friends and family—from George Clooney, Russell Crowe and Hillary Swank, to Prince Andrew. Together, Automat and Almada have brought a new spirit to London’s dining and nightlife scene. Other guests have included Bill Clinton, Anna Wintour, Victoria and David Beckham, Orlando Bloom, Jude Law, and Lily Allen to name a few. Most recently Almada was host to the official after-party for The Hurt Locker the night of the film's six-award-sweep at the BAFTA Awards, and before its fantastic Oscar success.
