Pursuant to Rule 477 of Regulation C of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Morton’s Restaurant Group, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby requests withdrawal of its Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-169099), together with all exhibits and amendments thereto (the “Registration Statement”), that was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 27, 2010 and amended on September 30, 2010. The Registration Statement has not been declared effective.

None of the Company’s securities have been sold under the Registration Statement.
In accordance with Rule 457(p) of the Securities Act, the Company requests that all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for future use.
Please provide the Company with a facsimile copy of the order consenting to the withdrawal of the Registration Statement as soon as it is available.
