    Excellent service, good choice of wines and cocktails, great decor. Goat cheesecake and trout were delicious. Very good dining option for a date night.

    The best meal I have had in a LONG time. The service was great, we had to wait longer than typical for our food to come out but it was well worth the wait. Highly recommend.

    The appetizers were good, had the bread service plate and our main meal which was the flank steak and the pork and sausage, it was fantastic. Our server, Carson was well versed with all the main dishes and he was outstanding. Will definitely go there again.

    Carson, our server, was stellar. He had great suggestions for us and was kind/courteous with a smile. The food and drinks were delicious! The atmosphere was great; not too packed, but great energy and background music. The dessert list was wonderful as well; the Strawberry goat cheese cheesecake is what dreams are made of!

    Food and service were great. Started with a charcuterie board and ham honey biscuit which were both delicious. Entrees included beef cheeks and steaks. Flavors were spot on. Morel is always a dependable choice for great food bc and service.

    Unique menu. Nice ambiance. Service was excellent. Some dishes were excessively salty. Server was apologetic and took one item off the final bill. Much appreciated.
