I went to Morton's for my birthday. Upon ordering I asked that the
mashed potatoes be substituted for rice. I was told that "the
chef does not do substitutions but you may order a side". I told
the waitress it was my birthday and to please ask if the chef could find
it in his heart to make the substitution. The dish I ordered is often
plated in other resteraunts with mashed potaoes as opposed to rice.
When our meals were served (it was a party of 6), all the entree's
were brought to the table except mine. However, a cold side of mashed
potatoes were brought to me, with some kind of sweet sauce poured on
them. I was charged $4.00 for this "side order". My entree
did not appear for a good 5-8 minutes after the others in our party. My
husband was ready to say somehting when the waitress said that the chef,
"was doing something special". However, when my dish arrived
it was exactly the same as someone else's who had ordered the same
thing. Many in our party also noticed the food was VERY salty. At the
end of our meal, I was brought a piece of cheesecake but the rest of the
party was not offered dessert for several minutes and by that time,
we all simply wanted to leave. The location is quaint and the overall
service from the waitress was good. It seemed that her biggest difficulty
was dealing with the chef. I have eaten in many 4 star resteraunts around
the country and on a scale of 1-10 I would rate the food a 4 (maybe) and
the chef's hospitality a 1. While I hate to think this way, I couldn't
help thinking that he sent cold potatoes with a sweet glaze on them,
as well as my dish much later than the others, due a tempermental episode.
I would not recommend this resteraunt.
