  My rating is based on my tours only. Too bad my mom did not choose Morningside but because of the attention and my tour experience I wanted to review them. We had lunch there. All the food we tried was very good. They know how to make fries. :) Based on my experience with other assisted living places, I would say the food is about a 7 out of 10. Some of the pairings are interesting, which is why I don't go higher. For example, baked beans were served to us with a seafood salad on croissant. Kind of an odd combo. That said, my my mom loved the beans. The menu is better than other places but also not the best I've seen. Overall the building is quite elegant. There are many places on the first floor to hangout and chill or chat. The lobby is very airy and bright. The grounds are very nice. You can hear route 29 while you're outside but there are tall, mature trees all around the property and you don't see 29 at all. Several residents were quite complimentary of Morningside. One of my favorite things was the 1 bedroom apartment. The layout and amount of space was impressive! The kitchenette area could have a bit more counter space. For example, my mom has a coffee machine in her current facility. There isn't much counter space here to make that feasible. At the moment, they allow smoking and seem to have a reasonable approach to it. That can change so I won't go into details. It is good to know though because many places don't allow smoking. Something I understand but is frustrating to expect of the boomer generation. They throw a special party monthly to visit a different country/area. These are well attended by residents' family even. We got a glimpse of the Paris event because some of the beautiful decorations were still up. I love that they are very engaged with the resident's family, encouraging them to attend events. If the time comes that I need to move to assisted living, I would definitely consider Morningside. The one thing that I had some angst about
