Square Meal review of Mugen:
With its long kaiten counter, glassy frontage & slick modernist decor, Mugen has come a long way from its origins as a basic Japanese. These days it’s pretty elegant & offers a long & elaborate dinner menu that is – unusually for the Square Mile – more ambitious than the lunchtime offering. The choice is almost bewildering: nigiri sushi options include tuna belly, razor clam & sea urchin while the hot dishes take in grilled black cod with miso paste, chicken with ponzu sauce & ground white radish or deep-fried sardines with Japanese herbs. It’s much more straightforward at lunch, where set menu suggestions & bento boxes help speed decisions. There’s a big selection of sake, shochu & Japanese whisky & the wines include a Chateau Montdoyen 2003 French house white, or else there are Asahi & Sapporo beers.
