Award-Winning Restaurant Secures Bright Future

One of Chester’s best loved restaurants, Artezzan is stepping into an exciting new chapter, ensuring its legacy of exceptional dining continues.

A change of ownership at Artezzan sees local businessman Cameron Ryalls and his associates take over the running of the restaurant in partnership with the dedicated team who created this much-admired restaurant. Cameron and his team already own and operate the popular Moules A gogo and Bonobo in Chester and are delighted to have Artezzan as a part of their restaurant family.

Cameron expressed his enthusiasm for the transition, stating, “Artezzan has built a fantastic reputation for quality food and outstanding service. We are thrilled to lead the restaurant into this new era and continue providing the experience our loyal guests love.”

As part of this transition, founding director of Artezzan Jim Dorrington will depart to explore new ventures but has been working closely with the new owners, stating ‘I am confident Cameron and his team will do a great job, building on the strong foundations that have been laid for Artezzan and I wish them well.” Cameron added “Jim has created something truly special here, and we wish him all the best in his next endeavours.”

With fresh energy and a commitment to excellence, Artezzan’s existing management and team will continue to welcome guests with the same warmth and hospitality they know and love. The new spring menu launch will mark the beginning of this promising new era.

While change is underway, one thing remains certain, Artezzan’s dedication to delivering an exceptional Mediterranean dining experience is stronger than ever.
