Brought my wife to Morton's Steakhouse @ Mandarin ...

Brought my wife to Morton's Steakhouse @ Mandarin Oriental to celebrate her birthday! Received a phone call to confirm my reservation. Was asked if I was celebrating anything and told them it is my wife's birthday! They then told me that that would prepare a personalised menu (2nd pic) and provide a complimentary dessert for her birthday! It is so nice of them!

Upon arrival at the restaurant they wished my wife Happy Birthday once they know my reservation details. They have even prepared a nicely made photo holder/birthday card!

Like many steakhouses, a loaf of bread is with butter at the side is served! The bread was really fragrant (it was onion fragrance I believe) and tasty! I would have finished the whole bread if I wasn't so full from the rest of the dishes.

For drinks, we only ordered a Mocktail, Rosemary ($10) (we don't really fancy alcohol). It was a sweet drink that whets our appetite.

For appetizers, we shared a serving of Maine Lobster Cocktail ($51). It was served Mayonnaise and Salsa on the side. The lobster was fresh and juicy. Based on the portion I see, it was probably from one lobster body or the claw.

We also shared a portion of Lobster Bisque ($38). They portioned it out into 2 smaller bowls for us, so the picture that you see is not an accurate representation of the whole portion of soup. It was unlike any other lobster bisque that I have had before, it had that creamy taste but it wasn't that thick either and it didn't have that strong 'lobstery' taste that made it taste kind of fake. There were also some lobster chunks added into the soup. It is delicious!

My wife had the 'Fillet of Fresh Salmon Topped with Jumbo Lump Crabmeat With 3 Grilled Shrimp & 2 Shrimp Alexander' ($110). People who loves seafood would definitely love this dish! The salmon tasted awesome and the shrimps were succulent and juicy! The crab tasted slightly more 'crabby' to our liking but it was fine!

I had the '6 oz. Filet Mignon with 3 Grilled Shrimp & 2 Bacon Wrapped Scallops' ($108). I had the steak with medium doneness. I felt the tenderness of the meat the moment I put the knife through it! It tasted wonderful! The scallop wrapped with bacon was yummy as well!

Though the meal cost alot but the service and food was great! I would love to be back here for another meal but probably on another big occasion. I think the prices may differ from time to time though as the prices were different from the ones that we saw from a blog article published this year.
