CLOSED: Morton’s The Steakhouse★ ½

Like most outposts of this popular house of red meat, the darkened basement location lends a clubby, secret-society feel. Showmanship plays a big part here, and the more-adorned steaks are surprisingly delicious. The happy-hour bar menu, with juicy steak sandwiches, mini crabcakes, and clever miniature wedge salads, is a hit. Dinner daily.
