M Restaurants bring Wagyu steaks to Canary Wharf

M Restaurants are opening at Canary Wharf's Newfoundland tower

26/8/22 - Updates with opening details

If you’re out and about in Canary Wharf or looking for reasons to head that way, M Restaurant is opening what they call another of their ‘gastro-playgrounds’ there, following successful launches in The City and Victoria. This latest opening has been in the works for quite a while - we first wrote about it all the way back in 2018. 

Across the ground and first floors of Newfoundland (at 220 metres high, it’s the seventh tallest building in the UK, stats fans), M Canary Wharf will include a 180-cover restaurant. But that's not all - there's also a bar, a wine-tasting room, a Taste of La Petite M café, two private dining rooms, as well as a members lounge and a terrace laced with lemon trees and lavender.

The man behind the menu is Culinary Director and co-founder Mike Reid and it will be Provence-inspired but with bonus extras.

From Chef Reid, who has previously served apprenticeships with Michel Roux at Le Gavroche and Gordon Ramsay at his eponymous restaurant, you can expect the premium cuts of Wagyu that are popular at the other two M grill sites (think Highland Wagyu and Kobe Grade 10 aged in a Himalayan salt chamber), but also:

  • Cobia tartare
  • Octopus carpaccio
  • Lobster, wasabi and avocado salad
  • Seabass with garlic, herbs and lemon
  • Breaded rib of veal with anchovies, capers and parsley

We’re intrigued by the concept of a Sensory Menu that promises to match flavour and sound at a weekly event called Tropez Beach Brunch. To maximise the sensory output and input, there’ll be DJs making the most of the Bang & Olufsen audio technology installed throughout.

The Le Petite M Café will offer a choice of healthy breakfasts, plant-based or Wagyu sandwiches at lunch then Wagyu charcuterie boards and fine wines in the evenings, which will no doubt be popular with the Canary Wharf business crowd. So yes, there's a lot of Wagyu.

They’re also set to hold Sunday Night film screenings and on top of all this, the company is also aiming to run carbon-neutral restaurants by 2030.
