| - I've been to this Morton's dozens of times over the past 20 years, but it's been a while since we've last visited, so we decided to give it a try and celebrate a birthday there this past weekend.
Overall, the food was good, and the service was attentive. The steaks were prepared well, and tasty, as were the other dishes we ordered. Although my filet mignon was only lukewarm when it arrived.
But, here's my "beef" with Mortons: it's TOO EXPENSIVE for standard steakhouse fare anymore. For 3 people, we had 4 cocktails, 2 appetizers, a bottle of CA wine, 3 steak entrees, 2 side dishes that we shared, and it cost OVER $400, including tax and tip.
We could go to ANY restaurant in Cleveland for that amount of money, and get a far more memorable, unique, and classy experience. Plus, if it's a special occasion restaurant, then Morton's needs to institute a dress policy if they want to enhance diners' experiences. We sat next to people in flip flops, baseball caps, and cutoffs, which hardly enhanced our special occasion.
