    a bar with red chairs
    Alex L.

    Morgan's is, quite possibly, the best kept secret in Sacramento. Located on the second floor of the historic Public Market building within the Sheraton Grand Hotel, it offers an eclectic fine dining experience that won't break your pocketbook. Let's start with the food. I had a California-themed burger with avocado and bacon. Oh lord. I had to look around to see if there was anyone having an equally ethereal experience. Sure enough, I could see folks at neighboring tables nodding their heads in satisfaction, and from the looks of the food on the plates before them, I can see why. If you're not already sold, consider that Chef Russell here WON last year's Celebrity Chef Tournament and the reviews of the food from an Oscar-themed Yelp event here were through the roof. Go. Eat. Enjoy. Repeat.

    $7 bowl of fruit

    Pbfft, hotel restaurant says it all. We came down for breakfast, which cost an arm and a leg and takes no more effort than pre-cooked bacon, and powdered eggs. The eggs and bacon, is $14... that is one of the cheapest things! The oatmeal and yogurt 'buffet' is $15, while the full buffet is $20. Don't forget you do get a drink with it though... *delayed applause* I wasn't that hungry, so I asked for a bowl of fruit ($7) with only cantaloupe, and the cantaloupe was ripe and tasty. I stole a bite of bacon, again, thin, precooked stuff. The best part of this meal was the miniature condiments honestly. It was majority rules, as I would have never ate here on my own. ProTip, order off the room service kids menu... everything is like $8 and is a regular sized portion. We had chicken tenders and fries and two orders were more than enough for 3 people. They also have eggs and meat and ham and cheese omelets on it for $8.

    Salmon with Corn-Poblano Relish and Crispy Purple Potatoes

    We came to enjoy the fabulous deals from the Yelp Eats! event. We were not disappointed. Service - Wonderful. We were the only people in the restaurant for a while, but we felt nothing but welcome and appreciated the whole time we were there. My friend realized she could not eat her entree after they had prepared it with cilantro, and they immediately whisked it away and presented us with something new quickly and with a smile. Food - Appetizers = Yum. Entree = YUM! Dessert = yum. All in all, the food was good, but there were some definite strong points. Apps: 1) Summer Nectarine Salad - So good. Thin slices of juicy nectarine, tender greens, and a goat cheese brulee. That little brulee was one of the best parts of the meal. So delicious. 2) Heirloom Tomato Soup - Equally wonderful. Nice mouthfeel and flavors. Came with a few housemade focaccia croutons that added a great crunch to the soup. Entrees: 1)Pan-Seared Pork Loin - The pork was good, but it was all of the little accoutrements that made this dish for me. It came with some type of large bean that had a slight pork flavor and what I believe was a balsamic vinaigrette reduction. Absolutely wonderful. It also came with some amazing braised greens. All the flavors married perfectly. Very happy camper. 2) Salmon - The salmon was cooked to perfection. It came with a corn-poblano relish and crispy purple potatoes, both which my friend loved. I thought it was good as well, but simply couldn't compare to my entree. Desserts: 1) Trio of creme brulee - Three flavors (strawberry, vanilla and chocolate) Chocolate was the best, followed by vanilla, with strawberry being a distant second. Tasted more like flavored whipped cream to me than creme brulee, but was good nonetheless. Accompanied by a large shortbread cookie. Also good, but nothing too special. 2) Stone Fruit Crumble - Served a la mode. Ice cream was yummy. You could see little specks of vanilla bean in it. The dish is made fresh to order, so it takes about 15 minutes, but it is yummy. If crumbles are your thing, I highly recommend this one.

    This was my first time here and I was definitely not impressed. Parking is in the parking structure but it wasn't too bad cost wise. I did enjoy the food. Good flavors and a good amount. I wouldn't recommend this place for breakfast due to the fact that service was terrible (we were one of two tables) and to pay it took 20 minutes and we still need to flag someone down to pay. The prices were pretty ridiculous. For a cup of coffee, it costs $4 (I might as well go to Starbucks). We constantly had to ask for refills on our water as well. Don't go to this place if you want a pleasant experience. It's not good on your pocket, parking is hard to find since its in downtown or you park in the parking structure, and lastly the service is terrible!

    Let me start by saying the service was stellar. Our server was really patient, answered all of our questions, and checked on us often without hovering. Since my girlfriend and I went here for the Yelp Eats event, we stuck primarily to that menu-- our only digression being the asparagus, which was a great decision. Our appetizers were hit or miss (mostly hit). The sweet potato soup was overwhelmingly 'pumpkin-esque,' but my spinach salad was great. I scarfed it down in less than 5 minutes. Do yourself a favor and order their asparagus. Trust me, it is definitely worth it. We both ordered the pork tenderloin as an entree. It had a unique flavor, but the rice was the real show stealer on my plate. We ordered cheesecake to go, and that turned out to be a pretty smart choice as well. All in all, the food was pretty darn good, but the restaurant can be a bit pricey (thank God for Yelp Eats). It does warrant a second trip, in my book.

She likes a little spice so she had jalapeños added, which turned out to be a great complement to the drink. For lunch we had the prime rib hash and the shakshuka. My wife really enjoys shakshuka, but finds it relatively hard to find. She said the dish was "awesome". This was my first "hash". Though I enjoyed it, my one critique was too many pieces of fat. I appreciate cooking any steak with the fat as It definitely adds flavor, but no one wants to bite into pieces of just fat. My recommendation...cook it with the fat, but trim the fat before you dice it to add to the hash. Service was exceptional. We were greeted by Phillip, who was very personable, and he brought us water and drinks. Our server was Felicia. She was very friendly, upbeat, cheery, and made us feel very welcome. The bartender brought out the second cocktail and he was very friendly. He makes a superb cocktail. The staff did a wonderful job! We plan to return to try some of their other dishes.

    A little reminder that being happily partnered doesn't mean you can't take yourself on a date…read more My partner was working late tonight, so I took myself out to Magpie, sat on the patio, ordered exactly what I wanted, and enjoyed my own company. There's something really lovely about being comfortable enough to eat alone, explore your own city alone, and remember that being by yourself doesn't mean you're lonely. And the food certainly didn't hurt. The Point Reyes blue cheese on the heirloom tomato & cucumber salad was salty, pungent perfection. The California cheese board with Mt. Tam was so good, the house potato chips were honestly epic, and the scallop crudo had the perfect little kick from the pickled peppers with so many good textures. My server Audrey was absolutely lovely, too -- and surprised me with a carrot cake cookie to end the night, which was such a sweet little gesture. Good food. A Sacramento evening. No agenda. Just a little time with myself. Take yourself on the date. Order the cheese board. Sit at the table alone. Enjoy your own company. Whether you're single or happily partnered, you're pretty good company, after all.

The server said the chicken fried steak was really good, so that was my choice. I thought that I would also enjoy the pork sausage gravy served on top of it since I love biscuit and gravy. I was quite disappointed in my choice because the steak as very tough, and dry, like it was not made in-house but probably frozen, and deep fried in house. The generous serving of gravy on top was lacking any flavor and was on the pasty side, so it didn't help the steak in any way. My toast was cold, which was not too much an issue, but the hardness of the toast was like day old left over toast. I told the server the steak was pretty tough but he chose to ignore my comment twice. I did like the potatoes, which were nice and crispy, but if anything, would've like a fresher piece of toast. One of our guest gave me her butter and that did not spread well on the hard toast. I took the steak home, and heated it a little because I was still hungry, but after one bite, I just tossed it. Just wasn't good. The guest next to me did order the omelette, and her omelette did look very good. I was just unhappy with my meal, for the price, which would've been worth it, if it were good.

He even came by and asked if we wanted it to be replaced with a new one because he didn't know we'd be starting with the salad first and wanted it to be hot for us. My lobster risotto was good, but I did feel like the lobster itself was bit more on the chewier side. For dessert, we had the soufflé cheesecake. I was thinking it would be like the Japanese cheesecake, but it was much more dense. It was still good! Other servers came by regularly to take away plates, fill waters, fold napkins.

The batter on the fish was way too thick, which took away from the fish itself. The Caesar salad was also disappointing--the dressing lacked flavor, and it was basically just lettuce topped with a soft-boiled egg. There weren't even any croutons. The only things we really enjoyed were the fries and the fried cauliflower. Those were actually great, but unfortunately, they weren't enough to make up for the rest of the meal. Overall, between the disappointing drinks and lackluster food, I don't see myself rushing back.
