    Absolutely loved our meal. Pheasant for one and beef cheeks for the other. Delicious. Service was wonderful and cocktails perfect. It is a louder restaurant,but still cozy and comfortable. We will be back soon!

    5 stars across the board! My party showed up 10 mins late (our fault totally) and we still were able to get our table right away. Friendly service, cool & relaxed atmosphere. The mocktail (Naranja Picante) that I had was great! My mom enjoyed her NA beer (neither of us drink alcohol). The steak was probably my favorite part! The hangar steak is a 10/10. I finished my meal with the goat cheese cheesecake and WOW it was amazing. Super creamy. Highly recommend Morel for a date night or business dinner! They also ask if you’re celebrating; I assume they do something special. Will be returning!

    Wonderful meal with a great server. He was engaging and attentive. I appreciate that he was around with out being intrusive to the conversation. We enjoyed specialty cocktails and split 3 appetizers (mushroom and polenta, cheese board, beet and goat cheese salad). The rainbow trout was presented beautifully. The ribeye special was large enough to be split. The short rib was tender and flavorful. We were lucky with the last available chocolate cake with espresso ice cream. Highly recommend Morel!
