Decided on The Morris after seeing an IG post and reviewing the menu and it turned out to be really good. We opted for the dining room which was very charming, but the heated courtyard looked cozy and just as good. We really enjoyed the cocktails, the food, and the service. The hostesses were welcoming and warm and our server, Clarence was just right to for us…he was a vibe. We’ll definitely keep this place in our rotation!

This was our first time there and we loved it. Alex was amazing and the food was delicious. Sushi was fresh and tasted great. Drinks were reasonably priced and tasted great. Can’t wait to go back and try the steaks. Also want to sit at the sushi bar for a meal as it looked fun.
