As of February 7, 2011 I was thrilled with Morton's. I wrote this stunning review below, and spent many a lunch and dinner enjoying Morton's. Until yesterday. I am still so incredibly ill from my meal at Morton's. To be honest I am pissed, disappointed, in incredible pain, and disgusted. I was at Morton's for a business lunch, had a c
aesar salad - no croutons, rib eye (specifically asked to verify the sauce and assure it was gluten free) with a baked potato (plain), and berries. Sounds harmless... But, no. One hour after leaving Morton's and me and the restroom bonded like I never want to bond with a restroom. Did I advise the server I needed a gluten free meal? Yes. Did I ask the server to confirm 100 times over that my meal would be gluten free? Yes. Was I served a gluten free meal? Who knows? Was I served food that gave me food poisoning? Who knows. All I do know is that my meal at Morton's is the cause of my severe pain. I understand Morton's is recently under new management. But, I still expect great service, including server's exceptionally trained in dealing with guests that have food allergies (which Morton's had in the past) and I expect quality food (when paying a decent price for a meal, you don't expect to be sick afterwards). I expected more from you, Morton's! I hope Morton's new management steps up and takes a hard look at proper training, the importance of understanding the severity of guests with food allergies and the importance of quality ingredients. Until Morton's shapes up, I don't plan on returning.
THUMBS DOWN!!!

Morton's, the Steakhouse is a great place for Celiacs! Good salad, good steak and great berries = a wonderful meal! Morton's has a great
gluten free selection. Best of all, Morton's has a special
$109 steak and seafood for TWO menu! We chose this menu and enjoyed it, see our images below. For $109 for two people, you can enjoy a salad, steak, seafood, side and dessert. A lot of food! (I'm also allergic to seafood, so I just had the steak). Makes for a great place to celebrate a special occasion.
I enjoyed my meal at Morton's, see the images here:
Caesar salad, sans croutons
Delicious filet!
Perfectly baked, baked potato!
Fresh berries, a perfect ending
On May 24, 2012, U.S. Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) issued an Interim Policy on Gluten Content Statements in the Labeling and Advertising of Wines, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages (TTB Ruling 2012-2).
