   First time at Morton’s. Ambience great, staff friendly. Black cherry cocktail tasty and Oysters Dynamite starter fantastic. We shared Empire Cut NY strip medium rare. Ends were chewy, but middle tender. Wish we would’ve ordered a sauce because it wasn’t finished with anything to give any good flavor other than a little burnt grilled taste. Brussels sprouts were bland and undercooked with sautéed onions and too large chunks of hard chewy bacon but no sauce to tie it together. Had to ask 2x to get salt and pepper to make my steak and Brussels edible. Smoked Gouda and bacon au gratin potatoes were good—just tasted like cheesy potatoes, as bacon was undetectable and couldn’t really taste the smoked Gouda flavor. The molten Chocolate cake with ice cream and raspberries was fantastic. Waiter didn’t tell us till after we were done with dinner and ordered dessert that it’d take 15 minutes to bake, so thankfully we weren’t in a hurry. Waiter seemed young, didn’t offer us any suggestions or insight into the menu even though he knew it was our first time, though I overheard other older servers doing so to other guests. Not sure we’ll return, but if I do I’ll ask for salt and pepper first thing and definitely get a sauce if I order a steak.

   Everything was fabulous except for the lighting. We were seated in the middle of the restaurant and the lighting was very dim compared to the areas around the perimeter and the other rooms. Having night blindness it made it difficult to see at 2 in the afternoon. We had to use our flashlights on our phones to be able to read to the menu and noticed the tables around us had to do the same.

    The food was pretty damn good. In fact, I went here for the second time because the first time I came, a few weeks ago (which is also the first time ever at a Morton’s), the 16 oz NY strip and lobster Mac was so on point that I had to return. Unfortunately, the service kinda sucked. Slow, lots of mistakes, and not one but two of the San Pellegrino had basically no bubbles. Not the best for a $400+ meal. The steaks were friggin delicious though. No A1?? Cmon mannnn.
