   Had a bit of an issue at my birthday dinner while at Morton’s in Santa Ana tonight. Two problem steaks. My filet was ordered medium-rare plus, but came rare with a cool center, and my friend’s New York was full of gristle, and even hard to cut, let alone chew. Adding to the problem, we ordered asparagus, and received scalloped potatoes instead. We had ordered a baked potato to share, so getting more potatoes in lieu of the much wanted asparagus, was redundant. The mistake regarding the asparagus was rectified, but the asparagus came after we were almost done eating, as did a replacement New York steak. (It too, had a bit of gristle, but was put in a to-go box, since we needed to leave for the theatre.) One more issue…the crust on the key lime pie was soggy. Oh, well… Management was accommodating and did comp the problematic New York steak, but the bill showed a charge for the scalloped potatoes. Really? Of course the charge was removed when we brought this to the attention of our waiter. Service was outstanding, but there were definitely kitchen issues. The restaurant was just starting to get busy, but certainly wasn’t crowded. We arrived at 4:45pm. I love Morton’s, but I might book at nearby Maestros next steak night out.

   This was our 3rd year in a row celebrating New Year’s Eve at Morton’s. They always have friendly service, very professional and the food is always delicious! I especially like that they don’t force a prefixed menu and don’t make you feel rushed to get out fast even though it’s a holiday. I really appreciate that. Highly recommend coming here for any special occasion.

   We were celebrating our 8th annual Christmas eve dinner at Morton's. Our server was great and very friendly and attentive. Shaun the manager whom we have known for the past several years came over to our table and greeted us. He's very gracious and makes sure everything is good for our experience there. We ordered the Cajun Ribeye with Schezuan green beans and Asparagus. The food as always was delicious but the highlight of the evening was the Carrot cake dessert. It was awesome that Morton's finally brought it back. Thank you to our server and the staff.

   Great service and good food. The Cajun Ribeye was a little too salty for my liking.

   The lobster soup, the onion bread and the lobster macaroni and cheese were amazing. The 22 oz. Bone ribeye, the mashed potatoes and the lava cake were just good. The music a bit boring but it was this ok. Santa Maria was Great.
