Dads that join Morello on Father’s Day will also receive sweets prepared specially by pastry chef Amanda Atkinson and a card entitling them to a complimentary dessert on their next visit. “Many restaurants give out roses on Mother’s Day, so we wanted to do a little something extra for dads this Father’s Day,” added Branigan.
