Seasoned to perfection We came here because my husband was in the hospital but would gladly come back again for dinner with my husband

Opentable Diner

Average at best for breakfast . Cost high in comparison to the food served. Service staff was unfriendly and inattentive Would not return

A decent restaurant in a local hotel. The cuisine is solid American fine dining style, but not too original.

Great place. Consistently excellent food really enjoy how they change up the menu and how the presentation and flavors just pop. It's a great place. Server wasn't very knowledgeable on the menu but he was very nice and attentive. We had a great experience

Two of us ate in the bar, and the bartender and waitstaff were attentive, but not overly. All was very nice except my duck, which I requested medium rare, came fully cooked and tough. Not wanting my dinner partner to wait on me and eat a cold meal, I didn't send it back, but I should have. Ruined an otherwise nice dinner.

The food was very good... well prepared and nicely presented... Our waiter Henry was extremely polite and pleasant ... he was efficient and attentive even though the restaurant was quite busy... the ambiance was pleasant.. soft lighting and quiet background music... the table setups and decor were adequate but perfunctory... Overall a very good hotel restaurant!

Everything about our experience was five stars—from the warm and attentive service to the impeccable quality of the ingredients. The dishes are clearly crafted with care, and the flavors are simply outstanding. I’ve been searching across many countries for the perfect Brussels sprouts side dish, and I can confidently say I’ve finally found it here. Absolutely unforgettable!

The Colombian waiter was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable—enhancing an already exceptional experience. Every detail, from the presentation of the plates to the beautifully curated displays throughout the space, speaks of sophistication and thoughtful design. You truly feel taken care of.

I would recommend this place to anyone who appreciates high-quality food, genuine hospitality, and a refined atmosphere. If I had one very small suggestion, it would be to consider adjusting the music. While it’s a minor detail, I believe classical, blues, or jazz would better complement the elegant vibe of the restaurant—but of course, that’s just personal taste.

The Blue Morel is located within the Governor Morris Inn Marriot. I have to say that our meal on Mother's Day at Blue Morel was a bit of a disappointment. 1.) there was no mention in the reservation with Open Table that it was a buffet offering - not what I was hoping for in a Mother's Day meal out 2.) it was $99 per person (not a good value at all) 3.) there was a service charge added to our bill that we were told was printed on the menu yet we couldn't find it anywhere 4.) we had a 6 o'clock reservation and they started breaking down the buffet at 7. The food was good, but not $99 a head good. We spoke to the manager and he said it was all good feedback and would help him in the future (meh!). Wish we had ended up somewhere else and had $50 delicious entrees and cocktails for a $300+ meal.

Avoid at all costs. I don't complain, it's just something I don't do. This was my first experience for which I was compelled to complain in my 52 years on this planet. Just go somewhere else - anywhere. Anywhere would be more value for money. Simply awful.

I thought the food was not good and for $100 per person to not even have espresso or pancakes for a mothers day brunch seemed a bit surprising. I would not return

For the price charged I found this brunch to be very poor. Many items way overcooked, shrimp was frozen not fresh; slow service as well. Music way too loud, couldn't carry on a conversation at the table at times. Would not go back.

Another tremendous, special meal at this exquisite hotel restaurant. Our server was gracious and helpful, especially with helping to surprise my wife with birthday surprises. Each of our starters was delish: cheese plate and seared tuna. Our entrees complimented each other so nicely: gnocchi and duck breast. The chocolate tart and tres leches tart blew our minds, and they provided a third, complementary tart so all three of us had something special.

Our good friends invited us to the Blue Morel for Easter brunch/dinner. They had dined there before and enjoyed it. We went online to see if they had a special menu, but didn't see anything. When we arrived, we noticed the parking lot and the restaurant were both fairly empty. We also noticed they were serving a buffet for $100 a person, not including drinks or gratuity. If we had not been with our friends, we would not have stayed. Empty restaurants serving buffets are seldom good. The entire experience was very disappointing; the servers were inattentive (we had to ask for water every time a glass was empty), and they seemed generally indifferent to providing any service at all (this could have been because the gratuity was included on the check). There were a large number of items on the buffet, but because few people were dining, many of the selections were not hot, and some of the selections with sauce had congealed. The meat carving station was fine, as was the omelet bar, because they were made to order. But at $100 a person, you would expect much better food and service.
