The food and drinks were excellent, and the service was first rate. Our server even offered us a dessert that was not on the menu, and it was delicious!

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving dinner at Morton’s the Steakhouse. Squash soup, harvest salad, turkey, stuffing, scoop of dressing, best cranberry sauce we’ve ever had (and we are not big fans of cranberry sauce but this was delicious), mashed potatoes and gravy. Dessert was a pumpkin cheesecake that did not scream pumpkin. So delightful! Service was excellent. Looking forward to next Thanksgiving with the hopes they offer it again. We would definitely be there!

The food was exceptional as always. The chef consistently adds a twist to even the old favorites. Try the friend brussel sprouts, they added sweet caramelized onions and they are perfect! Always great service and the cocktails are exquisite. Another favorite, bavette steak - tender and juicy.

We stopped by Ella's bar for appetizers and drinks at the bar while waiting for a friend. Claire W, working the bar, immediately made us feel at home. Cocktails, wine, and a couple of small plates, and everything was perfect. Super yummy, nicely presented, perfect portions. Claire answered all our questions, gave us good insight into what to expect from the small plates, and her wine recommendations were spot-on. Claire also has the perfect personality for the hospitality industry. Warm, open, patient, knowledgeable, and fun. We loved her!!! Next time we fly in to Sacramento, we're definitely heading to Ella's. You should too!!!

The food was fantastic. Our server was also very good. We had 2 platters, 2 small plates, and one appetizer item. The flavor combinations for all of the dishes were both complex and delicious. I will definitely return.
