The San Diego version of Morton’s of Chicago isn’t shy: they outspokenly consider themselves the best steakhouse anywhere. The prices certainly reflect these claims. Don’t expect to spend anything under $200 for a two-person dinner, especially if you order a bottle of wine. However, there’s a reason for such monetary madness, and you’ll find it in the first bite of that super-rare filet mignon. Plastic-wrapped cuts of raw meat are showcased before they’re cooked, allowing diners to select a faultless filet themselves. Whatever you choose, be it Diane or Oskar, rib eye, porterhouse, strip, prime, or even lamb or lobster, it will be the best you’ve ever tasted, guaranteed. Morton’s also offers as many as 400 wines, and your server will assist you in picking one perfect for pairing.
Love it. From the decor to the presentation of the uncooked meats, and seafood. Also, they have (or at least did awhile ago) an awesome happy hour with great prices on martini's and gratis fillet mignon sliders. Delicious!
As expected the steaks at this place was great, but you gotta try the nice and tender filet too. There are a plethora of other dishes available, but I kinda stuck it out with its specialty. In any case, the lava cake was unbelievably scrumptious you shouldn’t miss it. The place is a bit noisy and dark though, but I don’t really mind.
I suppose by specialty you were referring to the filet. I have to say I really enjoy the atmosphere at Morton's steakhouse in the Gaslamp Quarter but even that is surpassed by the quality if the meat. Morton's never fails me.
Mortons is my new favorite steakshouse. Everything from their customer service to the food quality is excellent. For those opting to stay away from red meat, the Shrimp Alexander is terrific, and if you're into oysters on the half shell--have them, they're wonderful. One item that is an absolute is their chocolate lava cake. Make sure you order it with your meal because it takes a while to bake to perfection. It is a sinful chocolate treat!
