Came here for the half off pasta Monday deal and it was great! I love the fusilli we got! The texture of the noodles were just right and the sauce was very flavorful. We also got the squid ink one which was good too but not as good as the fusilli. Would definitely recommend coming here Mondays the deal was great!

The location is good, and the menu looks decent, so we decided to step in for lunch. Unfortunately, all three different meals we ordered were really bland! It is surprising, as pasta in general is not a difficult dish to make, at least to make it average level. The pricing is pricey, but that comes with the location, I guess. Not sure what the problem is here - perhaps too much is pre-prepared? Nevertheless, it is definitely not a place I'd return to. Absolutely no complaints about the staff, who is friendly and attentive.

Rustic, traditional Italian fare in a rustic, traditional Italian setting. No surprises here, so if you’re looking for cozy comfort food that’s delicious and more refined than that food served in similar settlings, Osteria Morini is a great option! We had dinner at the bar, ordered fried artichokes, meatballs and two pastas to share. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The pastas were made perfectly with adequate firmness and with just the right amount of sauce. The meatballs and pastas were all served with red sauce, however, each were distinctive and offered their own depth and range of flavors. Would highly recommend.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Visited Osteria Moroni in SoHo, drawn by its fusion Italian menu. The food we ordered was decent - it hit the 'okay' mark but didn't quite dazzle the taste buds. However, the high price tag, especially for the wine and drinks, felt a bit steep. Considering the location, some premium is expected, but just a few blocks away, there are spots offering more authentic and value-packed Italian experiences. A fair choice if you're nearby, but there's more to explore in the area for Italian cuisine enthusiasts. 🍝🍷📍

Came here with some friends to try and catch the Industry Pasta night, which they still have on Wednesdays from 4-6pm. Sadly, we didn't get to enjoy the discount since our waiter didn't know about the promotion and misinformed us that it had ended. Make sure you ask your waiter to double check with the manager if they refuse to honor the promotion. The pasta dishes were $27 each. However, they do make all their pastas fresh, in house, so I think it's worth the price! We opted to sit outside since it was a nice day but honestly, I think sitting inside is a much better choice because the AC is strong, and the interior looks very classy and elegant. Perfect for a romantic date night, especially given the dim lighting. We ordered calamari for the table and it was so crispy and delicious! Portion size was fair and since it was happy hour, it was $12 instead of $17. Our waiters were very attentive and kept popping in to see if we needed anything. We took our time with the calamari since we were chatting, but our pastas were still served warm. I ordered the Cappelletti, a dish with cute little truffle cheese ravioli sitting in a butter sauce with prosciutto. I wish there was more prosciutto and it hadn't been cooked, but that's a minor detail. The ravioli were so soft and a dream to eat. The atmosphere and food here make for a great dinner. Their menu also has pizzas, meat dishes, and cheese plates which I will surely be back to try.

The service was decent, where the waitress was friendly and kind. However, we noticed that every other customer received a basket of bread. When we asked about ours, she informed us that we had to ask for it. Maybe this is a new thing, but I'm used to bread being automatically provided. Now onto the food. We ordered three separate pastas that are indicated in the pictures below. The pastas were very firm, as if they were mostly boiled just enough to be edible. The tomato based one was very sour. The cream and squid ink pasta was pretty decent, but definitely had better elsewhere. Overall, the price and quality was incongruent. The best was the octopus which had a nice char and was very flavorful. The servers who cleaned our table and brought us our food was very friendly and kind. Their service is 5 stars definitely! Thank you for reading and good luck! (:

For the best deal go on Monday! They have $15 dollar pasta dishes! With this deal, this place is an amazing value. I enjoyed the vibe here deeply, definitely a cute date spot or some place to catch up with friends. The portion sizes are reasonable for the deal and more than enough for the average person. The gelato and the tiramisu were delicious and receive the highest award for “not being too sweet”! Hot tip: go with a group of 3 people so you can split a cheese/meat board or other apps, before your pasta and dessert!

Used to be a fan of this place but I feel like they have gotten worse. Food was not as good as before. They don't bring you the bread unless you asked for it, and we got charged $8 for water when we got tap water. They corrected the bill after we pointed it out, and I believe it could be a simple mistake, but it was not a great experience. I regret taking my date here

Came here today with the family for a very early dinner for my wife’s birthday. We visited the one in Miami and had wonderful food and experience, and we want to see if the NY location can offer the same. Glad we did because this meal did not disappoint. Let me share the highlights of my memorable culinary journey: First and foremost, the carbonara was a revelation. Creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of freshly cracked black pepper. The pasta was cooked to perfection, and the combination of flavors left me speechless. Next up, the truffle ravioli. Oh, what a treat! The delicate, handmade pasta encased a luscious truffle-infused filling that melted in your mouth with every bite. Each ravioli was a burst of earthy goodness, and my 10 year old son ate the entire plate, savoring every morsel. Surprisingly, even the simple dish of spaghetti and meatballs was a standout. The meatballs were tender and seasoned to perfection, and the tomato sauce had a comforting homemade taste that reminded me of Italy. And let's not forget the grilled sea bass with artichoke Caponata. This dish showcased the chef's expertise in preparing seafood. The sea bass was grilled to perfection, resulting in a delicate flakiness that paired wonderfully with the tangy and savory artichoke Caponata. It was a symphony of flavors on my palate! The overall ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, making it an ideal place to relax and enjoy a meal with loved ones or friends. The service was attentive, and the staff was knowledgeable about the menu, providing helpful recommendations and ensuring a delightful dining experience. To sum it up, this restaurant offers a delectable journey through Italian cuisine. Whether you're a pasta lover or a seafood enthusiast, there's something on the menu that will captivate your taste buds. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a remarkable dining experience filled with delicious food and impeccable service. I can't wait to return and explore more of their culinary delights!

Great pasta. Get the corkscrew with cheese on it. Mozzarella app is a big WOW as well. Loved the desserts too. Great fun loud place. Very good if your looking for local Italian

Absolutely amazing, every dish was perfect including the dark chocolate gelati. Special mention for the octopus, I don’t usually like octopus but decided to take a leap of faith and it was some of the best octopus I’ve ever had. Would definitely recommend for the days you don’t know what you’re craving!

Had a fantastic NYE dinner experience here. Made reservations a couple months out and this place did not disappoint. Started the night off with some burrata and their complimentary bread which was fresh out of the oven and so delicious. It was an airy focaccia bread that was lightly salted. The burrata was cold and creamy so the combination of the two was just phenomenal to start off with. For starters we ordered the Polipo (charred octopus) and the Polpettine (meatballs). I have to say my only criticism of this place is that I was not impressed with the charred octopus at all. It was very chewy and just not the texture I was expecting from a nice restaurant like this. The meatballs was a completely different story though. Probably the best meatballs I’ve ever eaten in my entire life. The flavor and juiciness of them blew my socks off. They also came with a crispy, buttered toast that added a lot to the dish as well. For the pastas we had the Pappardelle and the Tortelli (lobster ravioli). Both of these dishes were home runs. So much flavor from the braised short rib in the pappardelle and the texture of the noodles was perfect. The Tortelli seemed so simple in flavor, but those simple flavors really stood out. The lobster tasted fresh while the tarragon really complimented the dish so well. The cocktails were delicious as well, I got myself a couple old fashions and finished the night off with a glass of their red blend. Overall amazing experience. Would love to come back again when I return to the city

Would recommend to sit outside if possible, went on a sunny day and inside just seemed a bit too dark. Went for Sunday lunch not particularly busy however staff were not very attentive and we had to get up to get ourselves more napkins and Parmesan for our pasta. Food was Delish. I got the tortellini bolognese.

Very mediocre and had a “chainy” feel to it. The best part was going to Eileen’s for dessert across the street.

Apparently Anthony Bourdain's favorite Italian restaurant, each bite into the pasta dishes can change your world view on what pastas can taste like! Highly recommend you to rsvp!

Absolutely phenomenal! Started at the bar for happy hr which was great, then got sat on time for our reservation. Both the food and the service were all phenomenal. Would highly recommend!

I’ve been coming here for over a decade and love sharing this spot with friends. The food is always so good. Typically get a charcuterie board, steak and 1-2 pasta dishes for 4 people. And of course a bottle or two of wine. The gelato parmigiana (spelling?) is so good. Whipped up spreadable cheese. Prosciutto is cut when you order.

Went as a group of 4, got 4 pastas and a couple apps. The food was all pretty good but nothing was particularly mind blowing. Of the pastas my favorites were the pumpkin ravioli and the fusilli. Based on portion sizes of the savory dishes, we got 3 desserts which were absolutely massive. The tiramisu is good but not liquored enough. Loved the olive oil cake, and could’ve skipped the affogato. The place was quite lovely and cozy, very much like a restaurant that has been buzzy for a long time.

Came here for brunch with a few friends. Service was absolutely impeccable. We all ordered pasta; I got the bolognese and it was good but not stellar. The pasta was the star, but the sauce fell a bit flat in taste. Would def go back to try another dish since it was generally a lovely visit.

One of the best deals: Pasta Mondays! $15 !! This has become a tradition for my wife and I. We have tried almost all the dishes (we don’t eat pork) and so we have it removed when possible. The short rib is great, but my fav is the truffle ravioli! Give it a try and don’t forget to ask for their bread 😉 delicious !!

Came here on a Sunday. It wasnt very busy. The server suggested the Gramigna and it was phenomenal! Perfect mix of savory and comfort. Definitely coming back for it again soon. The over ambience and experience also was just so comforting and calm :)

I had a delicious charcuterie/cheese and wine dinner here after hearing about it on the Anthony Bourdain Emilia Romagna episode. Definitely high quality and I appreciated all the accompaniments (strawberry jam, different spreads-I got a smoked fish one). A little pricey but I did end up getting leftovers from it.

I came here for brunch. It was during Covid and they only had outdoor seating at the time. It was on the street and thankfully the street had been shut down for pedestrians so it wasn’t very loud. I came here at about 11 in the morning and I would say that all the other restaurants were completely full. This place had no one there but people started to come in at about 1130. We were seated immediately and I tried the eggs Benedict with salmon and my friend tried the branzino. I would say the benedict was largely forgettable but the Bronzino was crispy and well prepared. The service was very quick as well and I would say the word stuff is really friendly and helps with placing your orders. A lot of stuff had to be brought from inside the restaurant though so we did have to wait quite a bit of time for her to bring condiments etc. Not a negative but it might make more sense for you to go in and get a bunch of stuff that you would like. The inside his rather dark unless you sit by the windows. But I do have a really full and large bar which would be lovely to sit in on the evenings. The space is mostly wooden and looks like an old-school Italian Varro restaurant.

The host at the door was the most incredible person! We sat by the bar next to him and he took the greatest care of us! Matthew was amazing!!!! Also, the bartender KB was phenomenal! You should call come here for happy hour!

We went to celebrate birthday. In the reservation the web restaurant is asking if this is special occasion, we say yes however there was no sign they notice that. So why you are asking? The food is ok but consider the pricing it isn’t. The desert tiramisu and crostata was not good at all, not fresh. Our waiter was busy and it was difficult to get her attention. We did not got bread after we ask 2 times we did. The restaurant is very noisy you can have conversation there.

I love this place so much. Came here for a 12:15pm Saturday brunch with friends and it was completely empty. But I have no idea why. Everything is so delish and the location is right by some of the neighborhood’s most popular brunch places (Jack’s Wife Freda, I’m looking at you!), but those places have crazy waits. We got a salad to share which was so fresh and then each got a pasta. My carbonara was so good and the iced coffee I ordered was nice and strong. Our server was kind and kept our waters full. I’ll be back soon!

WOW! This place lived up to the hype. I came with a group of friends and we had a huge appetite for Italian. We ordered so many items. Our favorites were the Fettucine Osteria, Linguine ll Congolese, Fried Oyster, Gelato, Myrtle Ave Cocktail, Gnocchi Al Pesto and the Chocolate Torino! The Fettuccine Osteria is made directly in front of you and really transported me back to my trip to Italy. I recommend this spot for large groups and also and intimate date dinner!

Food was delicious especially the squid ink pasta! One of the best I have had!

Whenever we come in to town we go out of our way to eat at this fabulous restaurant. EVERYTHING…literally everything I’d amazing on the menu. My husband and I try something different every time and without a doubt each dish is spectacular!! The ambiance is fabulous. Tonight we had Alex as our server and his recommendations were on point! Thanks we will be back again and again!!

When I came here I was in a hurry.. 30 minutes later I left this restaurants with amazing squid ink pasta and mint tea in my stomach Friendly staff, delishious food, fast service. Definitely will come back !

Although the atmosphere is dingy at first, it's quite clean and quiet. The service was really excellent and the menu is fairly unique. The food itself was unbelievable and I will definitely be back. Disappointed I didn't try the oysters, but they're pretty pricey compared to other local spots.

My favorite Italian in NYC. Go for the spectacular pastas (specially the pork shoulder ragu fusible and the capelletti) and don't forget to build your own cured meats and cheese board. Nice place, kind of dark, but good service and fantastic food.

I'm just loving it, I would love to come again.

Had an amazing meal here, probably the best tomahawk steak I’ve had. Charred octopus was well balanced in flavor! Calamari was crispy and fresh!

Delicious pasta, very consistent quality. Been here a few times and I’m always pleasantly satisfied with the service and flavor of things. Always a reliable restaurant.

Second attendance, I must say I once again enjoyed my experience. First time was a by chance dinner after reading reviews and came back a second time for a date night. The food, well recommended was delicious. I had the trofie, and date had the cappaleti. The cappaleti was my favorite, however all the dishes are second to none. Appetizer was the burrata, which I implore you to try and if you're feeling a little adventurous the octopus as well. I have also partaken in the skewers and I do warn you, it is a bit filling. As for as the drinks 10/10. I recommend both the Stir Crazy (mezcal base) & Botanical 75 (gin base). I enjoyed the botanical if you'd like a nice spritzer drink and Stir Crazy,be careful, for a more potent aspect. Overall thoroughly enjoyed my meal.Additonally the staff was attentive, friendly and well verse in menu recommendations. Would recommend as a date night without breaking the bank, family night out or just a casual stop. P.S My date was also pleased by the food and experience, so I'd say it was definitely a win.

The pasta was amazing, but the dessert (especially the ice cream!!) was even better 🍨
