Morgan M is the place I would take people to when they think they know all the best restaurants in London. They have to have one of the best priced tasting menus ever for 6 courses at £48, with matched wines for £28. Even better is that its probably one of the few places that has a vegetarian tasting menu. And as long as the entire table is having a tasting menu, you can opt for the meat or veggie option – they don't make the entire table have the same.
We first came here when it first opened, back in 2003, and the decor was pretty bland, but they've had a re-vamp since then and it looks and feels much warmer and cozier. The sommelier is extremely helpful, we had a table of 5 and he advised us to get a bottle of wine with each course as it would end up being cheaper than all of us having the matched wines. How often does that happen ? We did end up being very, very relaxed at the end of the evening, however.
The food is a triumph. Very clever combinations and I do like the idea of being given options on the tasting menu, given that there are a few things that I'm not keen on eating, ie. offal, snails and frog's legs !
The absolute only downside to this restaurant is its location. Very offputting if you end up walking back to the tube late at night. Get a cab.
