Morton’s of Chicago is a renowned steakhouse chain originating from the Chicago, known for its commitment to delivering exceptional quality steaks, seafood, and classic American fare in an upscale dining atmosphere, consistently providing guests with an elevated culinary experience characterized by attention to detail and impeccable service.
Ascending to the second floor of the Regent Hotel, you can’t miss the iconic Morton’s sign and a display showcasing the meticulous aging process of their meat cuts. As you walk in you’ll pass the Wall of Fame, adorned with pictures of international celebrities and dignitaries who have dined here, adding a touch of glamour to the atmosphere.
But let’s talk about the star of the show: the food. Morton’s offers a tantalizing selection of expertly aged steaks, fresh seafood, indulgent appetizers, flavorful sides, and exquisite desserts, all complemented by a curated wine list and impeccable service for a truly unforgettable dining experience.
To start your meal, every table is given a giant onion-crusted bread roll accompanied by the iconic Morton’s logo butter pat.
The Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes, bursting with real crab chunks and complemented by roast pepper and creamy avocado sauces, are a standout among the appetizers, along with the succulent jumbo shrimp.
Moving on to the main course, Morton’s offers a diverse selection of prime steaks, including the tantalizing Porterhouse Steak and the exclusive China-inspired Moutai aged steak. We tried the Porterhouse, which is a giant slab of meat that’s enough for 2 people. Morton’s is known for their open kitchen design, where you can watch the chef prepare your steak with their broiler. They love to keep it straightforward – just pure steak, with salt and pepper on the side.
To accompany the main course, the traditional steakhouse sides offer a tempting array of options, from asparagus to Parmesan truffle fries.
And for dessert, the limited-time-only Carrot Cake and the classic Key Lime Pie are both must-tries. Trust me, I’ve never tasted Key Lime Pie like this in China before.
