    The kitchen team is headed up by Chef Patron Santiago Lastra and was awarded a Michelin star in 2022, followed by being named 23rd in the World's 50 Best in 2023 and rising to 17th in 2024.

    Respect and understanding are central to our work.

    Before ingredients and dishes, we invest in the people and producers who trust us to represent their culture and traditions and our team also reflects this.

    As KOL continues its success, we're looking for a Bar Manager to join the team, who will support the seamless running of the bar by providing a highly efficient and effective service, ensuring standards are maintained. We'd love to hear from you if you're an experienced *Head Bartender *and you're up for a new challenge and the opportunity to work alongside Santiago Lastra. *About MJMK Restaurants* MJMK Restaurants own and operate a collection of award-winning restaurants.

    Founded in 2018 by lifelong friends Jake Kasumov and Marco Mendes, our journey began with *Casa do Frango*.

    In 2020, we partnered with chef patron Santiago Lastra to open *KOL*, a restaurant in Marylebone celebrating Mexican cuisine with British ingredients.

    KOL has since earned a Michelin Star and been named one of the World's 50 Best Restaurants. In 2024 saw two new ventures : *Fonda*, a contemporary Mexican concept in Mayfair - our second collaboration with Santiago Lastra - and *AngloThai* in Marylebone, a debut restaurant from husband-and-wife John and Desiree Chantarasak, blending Thai flavours with British ingredients.

    Within three months of opening, AngloThai earned a Michelin star. In the 2025 National Restaurant Awards, AngloThai was named The Square Opening of the Year and ranked 7th in the Top 100 list, followed by KOL at number 50.

    • Luso*, a contemporary Portuguese restaurant in Fitzrovia, opened in September 2025.
