Best Steakhouses in University Circle

Cannot say enough about this place. My girlfriend and I went there for her birthday. This was the day the Cavs played the Thunder so it wasn’t as busy around 7pm so we got a beautiful booth for just the 2 of us. Our server was Michael and he was awesome. As someone who works in fine dining I’m aware some people like when their servers are robot like but he was professional while also being human. Laughing and cracking jokes when appropriate but not staying too long at the table. The bread plus the dip they start you out with is amazing bread was always fresh and hot and dip was oil, seasonings, breadcrumbs, and cheese I believe but it could’ve been my whole meal. I started out with the RED house salad and the raspberry vinaigrette was addicting I’ve been thinking about it since I left. I also started with “Bravery in a Glass” one of their cocktails and it was spot on delicious while my girlfriend started with their Moscato that either of us could’ve drank like apple juice. Finally for dinner we both got the 8 oz filet. I’ve never tried Chiles and Garlic as a topping for a steak but after trying it here I feel I can never eat a steak again without it. My girlfriend also got Mac and Cheese with her entrée that was the perfect balance of cheesy, creamy, and a nice char on top. At the end of the day I was expecting to spend a minimum of $300-$350 but my bill came out to $194. Since it was such a pleasant surprise I made sure to give our server a nice bonus for his amazing service. Finally we got complimentary donut holes with 3 different dipping sauces as a birthday gift for her that once again were fresh, hot, and delicious. I cannot recommend this place enough. After my last few experiences I expect my girlfriend and I to become regulars there. 100/100

It quite a busy evening with the red hot Cavaliers game happening the same night as our date at the theater, but our lovely server was attentive and kept a great pace for our meal, all the while keeping us informed of the progress of our order. From beginning to end, we were warmly welcomed and thanked for dining with Morton’s. We enjoyed the fillet and crab cake special with bernaise sauce and a loaded baked potato. We finished the evening off with crème brûlée. With an extensive wine list, it’s easy to find one you’ll enjoy. We consistently come here before the theater because we can count of Morton’s to get us out on time.

Lovely space. Service (Destiny) on point, available when needed, out of the way when not. Eclectic and delightful menu. Well curated wine list, with a few surprises that I was admittedly THRILLED to find in Cleveland. Cocktails and dishes all well thought out, balanced and served with grace and elegance.

Wedge salad was delicious. Steak cooked to perfection. Great meal! Everyone in our party of 4 enjoyed their meals.

My fiancé and I went for our anniversary. Everything was incredible. We both are in the industry and have dined at most of the restaurants in Cleveland. We both agreed that this was the best meal we’ve had in years. Can’t wait to go back!
