Morton’s The Steakhouse

It’s been a while since I’ve been to a Morton’s. I was looking to pop in for a great steak and this place did not disappoint. Diana and Stephanie took care of me at the bar and did a great job.
The baked five onion soup was delicious as was the Cajun ribeye.
I was tempted to stay for dessert and more conversation but decided to head out and take advantage of the great weather.

Went here with my best friend as a dinner before we hit up the neighboring Cooper’s Hawk for a wine tasting. It was a week night and it was much emptier than we anticipated.
We both ordered the surf and turf and split a chopped salad as well as a side of sauteed spinach and mushrooms. While it was decent, it was nothing to write home about. I feel I’ve had much a better filet at other establishments within the same price range.
The staff was exceptional, however. They were all incredibly friendly and top-​notch. We were taken care of very well.
I would try this location again. Maybe just order a steak/​filet without the lobster… but I wouldn’t go completely out of my way to come back.

9 of us, 845 dollars without tips and tax. For this price, it was, very disappointing. We made reservation here because one of the friend recommended. We arrive on time, which is 6:30, but we didn’t get the entrées until 8:10(we finished the appetites and salad before 7:15) and when they served food, they pour a whole dish on my friend– all over him.
About the food, the steaks are good, but they made the vegetables way to salty even taste bitter.
Btw, I asked for warm water for my mom, but the water just tastes ‘coffeeish’, just like they brew the water with the coffee machine. Excuse me? Water with coffee flavor? We complained about the water and they give us another one, still tasted coffee.
So, personally I won’t go there anymore.

My husband chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday, great idea!! from the greeting at our arrival until our departure. Royal treatment!! the food was delicious!!! They made me feel like I was the only birthday women in the world!!! Highly recommend it! We will be back!

This place was as classy and stylish with a great diverse menu and amazing wine selection. We went here after a long hard day training a seminar and were super pleased with what we found. Greeted by an extremely friendly and pleasant staff, the style was popping right from the door. Great atmosphere was only the first pleasantly though, the food was the Homeric. I had the short rib and it was dynamite. Service as first class from start to finish. Great experience, well executed, start to finish.

Our first time here on a Thursday evening and the food was excellent! We were greeted by a nice gentleman that let us pick out our table in the dining room. Then they brought m out a pillowy soft loaf of bread and butter.
We started with some cocktails and Maine Blue Point Oysters. They were huge! Ordered a bottle of Cabernet suggested by our waiter, can’t remember the name but we enjoyed it. We shared the 12oz Filet cooked medium rare to perfection… Don’t believe me? Just look at the gorgeous picture! We also had the Bacon & Onion Macaroni and Cheese. Crispy on top, creamy and heavenly inside.
Our server Ray was kind enough to give us fresh bread to take home with our leftovers. We were the last people in dining room and never felt rushed. We complimented the chefs and wrapped up the night. We’ll be back for more steak!

I came here for the first time this week with my husband. The service was very good. Everyone was very friendly, which is what earned Morton’s the 2 stars I gave them. The food here is very expensive and not very good. We ordered the mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto to start. It lacked flavor, was drowning in balsamic and it lacked the crispiness the prosciutto should have in that dish. I’ve had it at other places where I could not stop eating it. I took one bite here and that was enough for me. My steak was super dry and chewy and completely lacked flavor. My husband said the scallops he had were okay but nothing amazing. None of the sides we had impressed us either. We tried the chocolate lava cake for dessert, which was probably my most favorite part, but still not worth the $ 200 bill that accompanied our evening. I was not impressed and will not be returning.

This location is fantastic. We went in tonight for dinner and couldn’t have been happier!
Great food, great drinks and great service! Highly recommend.

Not gonna lie I was not sure what to expect coming to Morton’s. I’m a huge foodie but rarely pay $ 40 – 60 for an entrée and was skeptical about whether this spot would be worth it. Boy oh boy though, Morton’s was worth it!
There was a group of seven of us at dinner and I can’t speak to how everything tasted but I do know there were a LOT of satisfied customers. I personally tried the Cajun Ribeye, Chicago Style Horseradish Mashed Potatoes, Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes, Truffled Cauliflower Mash, and the Scallops Special (scallops in a foie gras sauce with truffled leeks) which was my main course.
The highlights for me were the ccallops and cauliflower, I truly have never had such amazing scallops and the truffled leeks were the perfect complement. All the mashed potatoes were great but the mashed cauliflower was on another level for me.
I honestly have to say, if you’re looking for a splurge meal Morton’s is a great place to do it. Even if you are not a huge steak fan they have outstanding seafood options and the sides are worth a trip on their own.

I went last Friday night as a promotion to restaurant week. I made a reservation but when I got there I choose to sit in the very noisy bar and eat with my friend due to the TVs and the Hawks game being on. First the bartender wasnt friendly at all. He acted like because I wasnt a regular I wasnt worthy. Then he charged me for a $ 16.00 glass of wine over the bar menu $ 7.50 choice. I didnt specifiy, so he took it upon himself.
Ok, so we sit at a bar table and we ask to see the promo menu — it consisted of 4 entrees and a couple salads and 1 soup. I ordered the onion soup in the smallest cup Ive ever seen. Then I ordered the shrimp alexander with no description of what it was. it was 6 shrimp on a plate with mashed potato in a side dish. I then ordered cheesecake to go. Big deal. Nothing to write home about.

Had reservation so we were seated right away. The staff were great and attentive!
We had the rib tacos to start off, they were fantastic! Meat were tender! I also recommend the lobster appetizer!
My NY steak was a little over cooked but wasnt bad! Probably why I cant give out a five stars…

I was a little annoyed at first due to the hostess trying to do three jobs at once LOL! But she made sure she acknowledged me from the time I walked in. Until she seated me. Really sweet lady! She took very good care of me. Gave me a booth & situated my table to my liking! And took a keepsake picture of me! My waiter? OMG!!! He was so nice & attentive! Talk about SUPERB service! My first time here & I felt so special and I should my birthday was the next day LOL!!! They even printed my name on my paper menu and wished me a happy birthday. *tear** I can’t wait to go back!

From the moment we walked through the door, everything was impeccable. At the hostess desk I was greeted with «Happy Birthday». Nice touch. Then, when we were seated, our menus were personalized. Food selections were difficult because it all sounded so good. The warm bread is wonderful. I would have been satisfied with the bread and the fabulous chopped salad, which is large enough for 2 to share. We ordered steaks, of course, done perfectly with 2 side dishes that we shared. Plenty of food. However, we had to try dessert and the carrot cake was soooooooooooooooo moist. Complementary photo to mark the occasion completed the experience. Oh, may we bring your car up to the door to warm it up for you?
Looking for a special occasion place, this is it.

A pleasant meal, but it didn’t live up to the high expectations I had. I expected something on par with a place like The Capital Grille. The ribeye I had here was good, but nowhere close to one of the best I have had. The mashed potatoes were actually delicious, but then their crème brûlée wasn’t good at all.
My biggest issue is with their prices. The food is good, but not great, and for that reason over fifty dollars for an entrée is outrageously high. For the money you pay there are much better options in my opinion.

For our anniversary the lady and I decided to venture out here. I used to valet here many many years ago and I longed to try the food that many people I found, would rave about. I spoke with Roseanne the hostess who after many years, still remembered me. I made our reservations a couple of weeks in advance and voila, was set.
The day arrives and upon being greeted, we had a quick 2 minute wait due to the place being so crowded. Despite having reservations, this didn’t bother me, we were promptly seated and the waiter (I forgot his name, sadly), offered to take our jackets which we declined, and gave us a quick but informative rundown of the menu.
The whole meal, steaks, veggies, dessert (lava cake and key lime pie) were on point. Not to mention in my opinion the price was not bad ($ 200.00 or so). We got complimentary photos that were printed out for us by Roseanne before we left. I would have to say this experience was a very good one.
The only reason why it’s 4 out of 5 stars was at times, it seems as if our waiter overlooked us when we were just sitting there for our next dish or mainly. when we wanted our check. I would definitely dine again at this location without question.

Another steakhouse review!
My buddies and I came here after another day on the links. This location is surrounded by other stores that share the same parking lot. I was lucky to find a spot fairly close to Morton’s. We arrived and were seated right away, I would say that we didn’t even have to wait at all. The staff was great and attentive although there are subtle differences from other Morton’s that I have been too. Nothing that would detract from this review.
We immediately started off with short rib tacos that were fantastic, I mean I could have just had them and would have been more than satisfied. The meat was very tender and flavorful with a slice of avocado. We also ordered another appetizer of the lobster already cut up into pieces with drawn butter, my mouth is starting to water and I am drooling on the keyboard. My friend then looked over the extensive wine list and spotted an Italian wine (Serpico 2003) which is one of his favorite wines and ordered a bottle. I have to say it was perfect.
We then ordered our steaks but asked the server if the bone in was a NY strip which she said yes. So we each ordered the dry aged NY strip with our side of creamed spinach, grilled asparagus and mashed potatoes. When the steak arrived it was then we noticed that it was not a NY strip but what they called a strip steak. This was the disappointing part of the meal and it was something that we were all looking forward to eating. I know that everything else was very good and tasty but we really came here because of the steak.
Once we had enough of the main course we topped it off with desert. I went with a giant chocolate cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. OMG I was so full…
3.5 stars because the steak was the letdown of the evening and you expect the best when you go to Morton’s.

I visited this restaurant in March 2015 and I’m writing a review now because I feel like I owe it to Morton’s. Since that day I’ve visited other comparable restaurants in the area and they just don’t measure up. I just got through writing a long subpar review for Catch 35, and really don’t feel like writing much more, but I will say this:
Décor at Morton’s is beautiful – my husband and I talked about it during dinner. The service was impressive – it was my birthday and they made me feel like a queen. The food was delicious – this is officially my favorite steak house.
So after the horrible experience at Catch 35, my husband and I decided that we will only eat at Morton’s for special occasions. We will leave the experimenting with new restaurants to days when satisfaction doesn’t matter much.

This review is so overdue!
We had a nice lunch here last Mother’s day. the entire family was so full and I can tell that they really like the food because there no left overs in the plate!
It was pricey but food and service was great. We actually had a reservation and when we got there we were 5−7mins late I think but we were seated right away.
We have Jumbo Lump Crab cake and Oysters Rockefeller, Lobster Bisque, Chicago style prime bone-​in ribeye, Cajun ribeye and lamb chops. everything was cook to our liking!
We didn’t get a chance to have dessert as we are so full already.
Another thing that I like about the restaurant is the wine. Again it is expensive and since we had the wine I kept buying it now at Binny’s
Service and food are the best!

Ok I’ve never been here, so I wasn’t expecting it to be this nice. Honestly I was prepared for an «outback» kind of night. That being said, the service was astounding. We even brought our toddler and they accommodated us without a problem. Great atmosphere, and good wine list.
I ordered the house salad, baked potato, onion rings and the bone in ribeye. Wife had the filet. Their portions are very large for the sides so if it’s date night you’ll probably be good with one order. The rib eye was absolutely delicious. Ridiculous flavor! Filet was very good as well. I ordered mine medium and it came out perfect. And the NY Cheesecake was by far the best cheesecake I’ve ever had. Better than the Cheesecake Factory. Although, it left a nice dent in the wallet, it was well worth the fine night out.
They also had the valet bring the car to the door when our bill was ready. Again, outstanding service.

Sometimes, you just want to sit in beautiful space, eat beautiful food, and stuff yourself silly. If weeks have gone by with way too much work and very little contact with my husband, I start feeling rather irritable. We need some short term escapism from the stresses of life. «We have reservations at Morton’s; If you touch your phone, I’m going to lodge my heel into your calf. ;)» He knows that while I’m kidding about the physical abuse, I am not kidding altogether. It’s time for an evening out. Specifically here. And he’s not allowed to bring his phone (leash).
I patterned my home décor after Naper’s Morton’s. –That’s how much I love it. It’s really quite beautiful. Very classy. A nice balance between masculinity and softness, much like my relationship. Certainly a space you want to linger in.
We strike a combination of something fried and something green. The Sautéed Brussels Sprouts are my current favorite. Same with the Lyonnaise Potatoes. If I’m throwing all caution to the wind or wanting to eat my stress away for one night, that’s the winning combination. The Brussels Sprouts pack a lot of flavor and have some nice caramelized edges and you can seriously never go wrong with a crispy starch cooked with onions. –Lyonnaise Potatoes. Any of the following combinations are worthy of a little more treadmill time though:
Grilled Asparagus
Sautéed Broccoli
Sautéed Brussels Sprouts
Lyonnaise Potatoes
Parmesan & Truffle Fries
Onion Rings
I have never had to send a steak back here. Not once. It’s always cooked exactly as I request. Medium. A little bit bloody with some charred edges. –The mark of a perfect steak.
A nice place to celebrate a birthday, an anniversary, or just the fact that it’s Wednesday. Service is always impeccable. End of story.
