I love pasta and am always looking for new Italian restaurants to try and go to. Mora’s Italian is the creation of Scott Conant’s I have always liked him on Food Network and kept hearing how good the food is, so was very excited to go and try it out. We took Eddie which is always a risk with a new restaurant but no baby sitter means going out with the little man. The restaurant was very kid friendly and had the open kitchen so we could all watch the staff cook our food, and play I spy while we wait.
We started out with a bread board, four types of bread and four types of toppings, this was delicious, a great way to start the meal and not to heavy, the bread was amazing all fresh and the eggplant caponata was amazing. For my main course I asked the waiter what’s good and was surprised that he went with the very simple Pasta al Pomodoro, this is basically spaghetti and tomato sauce. I was surprised but went with it and am so happy I did. When pasta is done right it just brings a smile to my face and I was smiling like a mad man eating this. This was a perfect mix of tomatoes, herbs, and cheese and the homemade noodles are amazing. We had a nice glass of red wine because every good pasta dish should go with some good wine and now can’t wait to go back and go through the menu. This restaurant had great atmosphere, kid friendly, not overly priced and most importantly amazing food, we can’t wait to go back
