Ebony

Guangzhou’s elegantly updated grill
VERIFIED LUXURY

An updated take on the storied Mandarin Grill, Ebony offers a stylish respite from the trendy hotel dining scene, serving classic steaks grilled to perfection and fresh seafood in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.

But that’s not to say that this Mandarin Oriental, Guangzhou eatery doesn’t have a few surprises. Housing the first gin bar in southern China, Ebony even infuses a few of its own botanical spirits for you to sip and savor on the elegant outdoor terrace under the shade of palm fronds.

Whether you choose to stop by for the semi-buffet breakfast (order from a menu for your entrée and peruse the buffet spread for supplements), a sweet afternoon sip or a succulent steak come dinnertime, you can be sure to enjoy your stylish surroundings as much as the excellently executed cuisine.
