This was undoubtedly some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. The pizza was decadent, the pasta was perfectly balanced, everything was so rich and delicious. Service was great, portion sizes were great, and if you’re a fan of tiramisu, you literally cannot beat this one. 100% perfect dining experience.

I actually came here first out of not being able to find any reservations one night. I had come across this place a few times popping up on my open table app but had never tried it they had good reviews so we figured we would give it a shot. Well I was very pleasantly surprised, everything was very tasty great appetizers pastas pizzas and entrées, they also had a good selection of very nice wines. I only had one not so perfect night there on a Sunday which could have been that the regular chef was off that night being that a lot of times that’s the good day to take off for a chef. But they also seemed understaffed. With that said everything was still good and only a little slow on service but still enjoyed ourselves. I definitely recommend Mora and would and will be back again soon.

The food was amazing! The waitress was also so sweet and friendly, and really helped make the experience. There was a musician there when we went who was playing flamenco music that was fantastic.

Don’t let first impressions stop you from booking or staying or you will miss amazing food with employees who care! Mora Italiano restaurant is inspired by the bustling streets, fashion and societal liberation that was emerging in Italy during the 60’s and 70’s. And here we just stumbled upon it as an option for my girlfriend’s birthday, lucky us!

The crispy fish and asparagus was so spicey I couldn’t eat it. Tried scraping the red pepper flakes off to no avail.

The Pomodoro pasta was delicious.. the tomatoes & burrata tasted good but the heirloom tomatoes were too soggy for me. I’ll definitely order from them again.
