Customer Reviews
Morel is a gem! We never have any complaints. You can sit at the bar and sample small plates or sit at a table and taste your way down the menu. You will not be disappointed! We enjoyed the truffle fettuccini special and the pork belly starter followed by the duck breast and the hangar steak, delicious! We were celebrating a birthday and they graciously gifted us glasses of Prosecco. We will absolutely be back soon!
Morel truly exceeded expectations! I don’t know how it has been on my list for so long. Everything from the personable service, uniquely special ambience at the chef’s counter, and thoughtful menu was wonderful. If you are into a more savory garden cocktail, the Shiso-Crazy is so delicious and well balanced. The lamb carpaccio was exquisite and is not something I would typically order. I am so glad that I tried it. The pork shoulder was extremely tender and the mustard jus complimented it well. The Hangar Steak had a delicious blue cheese butter that provided just the right amount of richness and salt. The charcuterie was good, just not overly exciting…definitely branch out and go for the carpaccio! This is a special place, and if you have a special occasion, the Chef’s table is a very coo
First time visiting Milwaukee and was staying nearby - I picked this restaurant purely because of the name (I love me some Morel mushrooms). After a few minutes research, I walked over and the lovely host immediately sat me at the bar. The host was great to talk to, very friendly and welcoming, as were the bartenders. I usually have a bit of solo travel anxiety, but the atmosphere here was so warm and welcoming (and casual!). They took great care of me with recommendations, regularly making sure I had everything I wanted, all without being too overbearing. It was the perfect experience for the solo diner wanting an elevated meal. The cocktails were great, the food was outstanding, I can't recommend this place enough!
The service was great but the food did take a rather long time. We waited 50 minutes until our charcuterie board was brought out. The board featured a delicious beef pastrami with perfectly baked bread. The jams they served with it were not very good. One was a lemon licorice flavor that was intolerable. The other was a sickly sweet apple butter. Chef's choice Charcuterie board 6.5/10 The entries were delicious and aesthetically pleasing. I highly recommend the duck confit served on a bed of polenta. I found the use of duckweed as a garnish amousing with a compatible texture. Duck confit entre 8.1/10 The rum ice cream cookie sandwich was overly boozy and the cookie was over baked to the point of being burnt. 4.0/10 The chorizo pulled pork entre is fantastic. The sweet corn and salsa Verde
One of the best meals I've had in Milwaukee in a long time! It was hard to decide what to get because so many entrees looked good. Carson was a great server :) We will be back!
