Nico Simeone’s Six by Nico restaurant group is set to launch its first Bristol location in early February.
Famed for its themed six-course tasting menus that rotate every six weeks, the group will open a new location at Quakers Friars.
Simeone launched his first restaurant in 2017, aiming to make tasting menus more accessible to a wider audience. Prices begin at £44 per person, with an optional wine pairing available for an additional £30.
Current menu themes feature “The Chippie,” a creative take on fish and chip shop classics that includes a deep-fried Mars bar, and “Nostalgia,” which pays homage to cherished memories like Blockbuster video and childhood camping adventures.
Simeone said: “We’re excited to be part of the local dining scene and to share our passion for innovative, high-quality food with the people of Bristol.
“When we launched our ‘At Home’ service during the pandemic, we saw a strong connection with the local community, which made this opening feel like a natural next step.”
Six by Nico has expanded to 16 locations across the UK, including Glasgow, Belfast, Cardiff, London, Manchester, and Oxford.
In 2022, Simeone announced plans for a “significant expansion” of the business after achieving a £4.4m profit and a £30m turnover in the year ending June 2022.
His broader Six Company portfolio also includes the Somewhere by Nico bars located in Glasgow and Edinburgh.
