I visited with my friends. The menu is pretty short but we decided to try it anyway because we wanted to have a view of the harbor while eating our lunch.
You place your order at the kiosk and they bring the food to your table.
My friends had burgers, I had a salad. Everything was simply delicious! So many different tastes and textures. The portions were big enough for us feeling hungry after a long hike.
It does not look like much from the outside but the food is seriously good.

Had lunch here twice. Lovely large tasty burgers with tasty chips and salad. The restaurant has a terrace with lovely views across the lake, but also has an indoor seating area.

If you desire fast food with great views, this is your choice. I tried the vegetarian burger and cauliflower wings. The burger was nice, not the best I've had but nice. The cauliflower wings were otherwise very good but too salty for my taste. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was cosy. The dessert (mustikkakukko) is a traditional Finnish dessert and that was pretty good, too!
Morton is a good choice if you want to stay near the harbor and enjoy the lake view. But if you are looking for the best burgers in the town, go to the city center.

We took Delaware burger (one with beef, one with chicken) and Ridley burger meals - probably best burgers ever eaten, at least anywhere in Europe. Everything was in perfect balance (both meats, vegetable patty, buns, different spices, bacon, mayonnaise sauces, cheese...even "pickled" rhubarb(!) and basil-apple chutney matched perfectly in Ridley burger). Also french fries were great, spiced with some tasty herb flavor. One of us took Elisabeths salad and it has also very good.
Nice looking and clean (but maybe a little bit cramped versus the amount of customers) restaurant, situated in a great place at Jyväskylä marina. Easily top1 restaurant in Jyväskylä (unfortunately supposedly open only in summer).

The best sweet potato fries I have ever had. It is A bit expensive and usually full of people. There is only a terrace so you don't want to eat there if the weather is bad. I hope they had indoors as well cos the location in the harbor is beautiful and unique.

The glutenfree burger was surprisingly good! The bun was great quality and tasted better than in many other places I've visited. The fries were nice and crispy, but had bit too much herbs in them for my taste.
The location is nice.
This place is quite small but popular so there may be just few places to sit and one may have to wait a bit.

Located by the lake this place has great views. Interior and terrace are decorated nicely. Nice music and atmosphere overall. Ok walking distance away from city centre.
Good burger to put it plain and simple. Only thibg I would change is to make the burger (beef) a bit thicker so you could have it as medium. Salads looked nice as well. Friend had a gluten free bun and said it was good also.
Definitely recommending this place during summertime.

Morton has a great atmosphere with nice staff and a view to the harbour-area. The food in this joint is delicious! I just looove Little John -burger and the epic fries it comes with. I highly recommend also their gooseberry lemonade.

I would highly recommend this place. Burgers are extremely delicious and big plus for the salads as well. Only minus for the price level - for example lunch coffee is not included. Still would like to visit more often!

Food was food, New clean cosy place with the lake view. The staff at the order counter wasn’t very friendly when I asked to warm up the baby food, and the baby food wasn’t warm enough to eat...the staff who brought food to table was quite nice.
