Arnie Morton's is a top-notch steakhouse, and the Burbank location is no exception. Located between Walt Disney Studios, NBC, Warner Bros. Studios and not too far from Universal Studios, lunchtime is crowded with studio execs happy to finally have some alternative to the commissaries on the studio lots. The decor is classic steakhouse--dark wood walls, roomy booths and widely-spaced tables with comfy chairs. The service is expert---servers are very familiar with the entire menu and very flexible about making changes to dishes. Dinner prices are normal steakhouse--about $30-$35 for meat entrees. Lunch prices seem extremely reasonable, with many entrees available in the mid-teen range. A favorite is the Chicken Christopher--two chicken breasts breaded and baked with a delicious garlic butter sauce on top, on a bed of rice--it is one of the yummiest dishes I have ever tasted. Also, the spinach salad is excellent, as is the sliced steak salad. Of course, all the beef and lamb entrees are superb. Side dishes and desserts are also top-notch--you really can't go wrong here.
