About Morgans
On South St in Eastbourne, Morgans serves Italian cuisine with a menu that runs to 75 dishes, from a set menu option to sea bass, salmon topped with grana padano, chicken Milanese, and steak. Starters include mixed bruschetta, prawn cocktail, deep fried brie, melon and Parma ham, garlic bread, and olives. Tables are laid with white tablecloths, cutlery, and a flower, and the room is small enough that staff manage seating at the door as it fills. Draught lager, Prosecco, and wine are poured alongside the food. Outdoor tables sit away from the seafront, a few minutes' walk from the city centre. The restaurant opens Tuesday to Sunday, closed Mondays, and also offers collection or delivery.

Customer Review Summary
Fish dishes anchor the praise, with sea bass and salmon named most often: the sea bass described as plentiful and beautifully cooked with great side vegetables, and the salmon served in a tasty sauce topped with gran padano or in a pasta. Close behind are the freshly cooked vegetables, a pizza with fresh dough and fries, and a draught lager one diner calls the standout. Reviewers repeatedly call the prices reasonable, some saying it undercuts pub grub, and several single out attentive service, including a door host who found a table without a reservation. The criticism is sharper but rarer. One diner found the chicken Milanese dry, the pasta like tinned spaghetti hoops and the steak like off bacon, saying dishes looked nothing like the website photos, though the garlic bread and olives were good. Another was turned away on a half empty Sunday afternoon because a large party was expected, and one notes dishes arriving slowly and unevenly. Tables are set with white tablecloths, cutlery and a flower.

“Garlic bread and Olives were great. Chicken Milanese was dry and the pasta tasted like tinned spaghetti hoops, the Steak was awful and tasted closer to off bacon. The food must have changed at some point, as it didn't look anything like the pictures on their site or Google. Wouldn't recommend for the money.”

“Lovely restaurant, good food at reasonable prices. This was a go to place for me for many years, both with friends and as a solo diner. I have posted positive reviews in the past. So very disappointed to be turned away one Sunday afternoon because ‘a large party was expected.’ This may have been the case but at the time the place was half empty! Discrimination against a solo diner? Not been back since. Disappointing!”

“Fantastic. Great food and taste. Presentation and colour. Group of 7 of us day before our sons wedding. Definitely will visit again.”
- Judith Alder
“Delicious food freshly cooked to perfection at really reasonable prices - cheaper than a lot of very mediocre pub grub. Lovely fish and always a selection of good freshly cooked vegetables. Haven’t tried the pasta yet but will definitely do so soon.”
- Linda Crowhurst
“Had a late lunch/early dinner here today. Not been before but will definitely come again. Waitress was amazing, restaurant deco superb, beautifully clean and the food - well outstanding. A great experience, reasonably priced too. A little gem in Eastbourne 😀😀”
