    We had an outstanding dinner at Morton’s last night while celebrating my son’s graduation with a group of 11 family members. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. We began with a variety of starters—the Shrimp Calabria, Wagyu Dumplings, Shrimp Cocktail, Caesar Salad, and Wedge Salad—all of which were delicious and perfect for sharing. For entrées, the meal truly shined. Highlights included the Cajun Ribeye (easily one of the best steaks in Cleveland), the Bone-In and Tomahawk Ribeyes, Filet Mignon, and Lobster Ravioli. The Charred Broccolini and Creamed Spinach were excellent accompaniments and rounded out the meal beautifully. We finished off with Chocolate Lava Cake, Cheesecake and the Chocolate Pot de Creme - all desserts were wonderful. What made the evening especially memorable, beyond the exceptional food, was the outstanding service. Edel, Amanda, Sofia, and Andy (the restaurant manager) were warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure our celebration was seamless. We’re incredibly grateful to the entire team for accommodating our large group and helping us create such a special and memorable evening. Highly recommend for any special occasion!

    Wonderful experience from the host when we walked in to the manager on the way out. The food was excellent with great attention to detail. My boyfriend had an amazing g drink (name escapes but Italian something and was like an Old Fashioned). We had a few items from the specials menu that were fabulous. Top of was our wonderful server Aiden. He put up with our annoying jokes with Grace and cute comebacks! Highly recommend this restaurant for a special night out.
