Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Downtown Cleveland / E. 4th Street

This is the model for a great seafood restaurant… came here serendipitously two years ago not expecting anything.. was shocked a restaurant this good could be so far from an ocean. Returned today… hoping it was still great. It is. The staff greeted us warmly as if we were well-liked regulars. The atmosphere softly lit, with every table full, yet without feeling over-crowded. The menu just right… all the favorites.. with nice touches and specials… all fresh. Dessert offerings were solid… and maybe that best describes this restaurant… a solid 9 out of 10. It would hold its own in Manhattan, Miami Beach , Boston or LA.

Great drinks and food. Attentive server who helped guide food and drink choices. Very happy all around!

The food was delicious and the staff was AWESOME! Our waiter Ray was the best waiter that we’ve had in a very long time. His support staff was excellent as well. Great job!

Christopher took care of us really well. Despite being arguably one of the best steak stops in Cleveland? We went for the seafood tower. Mac n cheese side and a chicken spring roll app. Food was incredible, everyone was attentive and the ambiance was superb. Honourable mention: the bananas foster desert is table made and done so beautifully. 10/10

We had a very good meal at Morton's on a very busy Christmas Day. There are very few restaurants open on Christmas and Morton's tried to take care of all their guests.
