★★★★★ 5.0 Mio Núñez · Dec 2025

This was my first time here. It's a Thursday night around 5pm and it wasn't too busy, but we eat early. My family mentioned they wanted to come here and I was curious to checkout the happy hour. At the time of the visit, they didn't have cocktails (but that might change), but they do have wines, rose, Spritz and pizza. These are half priced from 4pm-5:30pm for happy hour. They do have beer, but it's not half priced. We tried the olive oil cake, which was different and I enjoyed it. It wasn't sweet and went well with my wine. They do have digestivos, which I think they call liquors The restaurant has a very cute vibe. I love the bar area. They do have outdoor seating and it's heated. Parking is available, but this parking lot is super busy. There is also street parking available. I do pla

A friend invited me to join them at this establishment. I honestly was not expecting such a special place. I was merely trying to meet up with a friend. Besides finding my friend, I found an intimate local Italian wine bar with a very classy and sophisticated environment. The parking lot is not large, so it might be the case that you’ll need to maybe park on the street curbside, but the walk would not be far. I just appreciated how relaxing and classy this place was. I want to place emphasis on the word “intimate“. This place is chill. However, the best part about this establishment might very well be their food. It’s a wine bar—and if you’re a wine lover, you already know you’re not going to have a problem finding a good glass of wine at an Italian wine bar. What I was not expecting

★★★★★ 5.0 Jon Simmons · Jan 2026

This is a lovely quaint small very good Italian restaurant. I loved it because I got extra American Airlines miles through aadvantagedining. Good steak. Great Ceasars salad. And my friends liked the pizza. I thought it needed more stuff on it.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 William Gerace · Feb 2026

The rigatoni was excellent and service was pleasant. However, they didn't serve italian bread before or with the meal. We had to ask for bread and as an alternative they served focassia bread in which they felt the need to charge us $3 when the bill was over $100 per person. Finally, the didn't have coffee or tea with dessert. We were told they were cleaning the coffee pot.

Mora Italiano always delivers on fantastic dining experience. The food, wine, and service are all top-tier — a true gem. Huge shoutout to Jorge for his impeccable hospitality and deep knowledge of the menu and wine pairings. Don’t come expecting a fast-casual meal with expansive seatings; this is more of an intimate experience centered around authentic Italian flavors and high-quality ingredients. Cacio e pepe with Sarawak peppercorn? What more could you ask for!
