"The Morris might be one of the finest neighborhood restaurants in all of San Francisco. It’s got it all: a great bar for bellying up to on any day of the week, warm service, a top-notch wine list, and reliably excellent food. It’s the restaurant equivalent of putting on a warm, cozy sweater — and sometimes that’s just the kind of romance you need. Make it a playful night with a chartreuse slushy (or go more serious with a bottle from the Big Wine List) then dig into an array of housemade charcuterie, the don’t-miss duck heart skewers, and a large cassoulet." - Lauren Saria, Dianne de Guzman
"If you’re merely looking for a centerpiece to your meal — or, let’s face it, maybe just an extra protein option for the table — the Morris is selling their popular smoked duck for the occasion. Order a half or whole duck ($110 and $55, respectively), with the option to add on a charcuterie plate ($50), vegetables ($18), chocolate pudding ($12), or even a wine pack, if needed (price varies). If you’re the type to have duck leftovers, the Morris also smartly offers a duck noodle soup kit ($21) to take care of those extras. Orders must be placed on Toast Tab by Friday, November 22, with pickups available on Tuesday, November 26, or Wednesday, November 27, from noon to 5 p.m." - Dianne de Guzman
"When’s the last time you sat down for hickory and cedar-smoked duck, an impressive charcuterie plate that included an incredibly buttery tête de cochon, and wine from a list that reads more like a long, captivating novela? If the answer is never, get to The Morris. Here, service is impressive, the space feels intimate, and the energy is high without being chaotic. Ultimately, this spot looks a lot like a laid-back neighborhood place, but it’s actually a destination restaurant in disguise." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
"If you’re not a big turkey person, the Mission spot’s smoked, roasted duck is available for pick-up on November 21st and 22nd. You can order a half or whole duck here, along with a wine pack or chocolate pudding." - julia chen 1
"Depending on what time you book, New Year’s Eve dinner at The Morris in the Mission will be $150 per person (5-7pm, five courses) or $200 (7:15-9:30pm, seven courses). Either way, prepare to make “eat more of The Morris’s smoked duck” one of your resolutions—the legendary dish is on the menu. The second seating will feature seasonal dishes by local seafood business Sea Stephanie Fish. " - julia chen 1
