I absolutely loved La Morra. The atmosphere is so cozy - you really feel like you are in someones home. The food was rustic and very creative. The waitress recommended a vegetable lasagna and it was delicious, full of local mushrooms and kale. But my favorite part was the fried risotto balls on their chinchetti menu (like little tapas). They were stuffed with cheese and this really awesome beef. I would love to go back and try the pre fixe menu. I also appreciated that while it is very upscale, it is not overpriced. read more

this little place was wonderful, quaint, and cozy to be honest when i first saw the place i thought it wasn't going to be that good, as the paint was peeling and the it looked a little unkempt. However my opinion changed when i stepped into the place and walked upstairs to the second floor. The restaurants interior sorta reminded me of a nice place in upper new york state, a countryside home really. The ambiance and lighting, the benches and chairs, it all had that countryside, homely feel to it. I didn't feel like it was too cheesy or playing off some Italian theme, which is good. I don't need to feel like I'm in Italy to know and enjoy that I'm eating Italian food. The menu wasn't too big or extensive, which is nice, as it doesn't make it a challenge or a chore to choose something I want. They had mini appetizers (it has a name but i forgot) and i ordered the tuscan meatballs, the chicken and duck livers, and the salted cod. All three were delicious and perfectly portioned, and were a great way to start into the dinner. Not too little (like Tapas!!! too little for too much i say) but not too much, it was perfect! The meatballs were made of veal i believe, as they had that veal taste and i highly recommend them. The livers were very good, sort of like a pate, which you had to smear on the biscuit crackers that accompanied it. And the salted cod was delicious because it wasn't too salty or too bland, and had a very good consistency which made it quite enjoyable. For the appetizer, I had the Razor clams and the grilled Romaine, and both were superb. Really, the clams were honestly one of the reasons i would go back, it was just perfectly cooked and sauteed. The romaine was also quite good too, nothing too special, but it was far from mediocre. For drinks, i tried the house special the Mora, which was delicious. It has blackberries in it and lemon and honestly you couldnt taste too much of the alcohol. It was sweet but still a little bitter at the end. For main courses, I had the lobster Fettucelli (which means fresh pasta or something) and it was really good. I got the entree portion and it still wasnt too much or too little. The meal itself is heavy and filling ( finished it all though). They used a good amount of lobster, im guessing maybe around half a lobster (i know they used tail, knuckle and claw meat in there, but it didnt seem like a whole lobster was used. . .) Also because i went with my parents, they had the special duck entree and the scallops. Both were specials, so i dont know if they'll be available by the time of this review. However, the scallops were incredible, just from the two bites I tried from it. The seasoning was delicious and complemented the scallops texture perfectly. I didn't try to the duck because I don't like the taste of it, so therefore I didn't want to ruin the already great experience i was having with the place. But from what my dad said, it was also quite excellent, if not a little salty. But thats pushing it. Oh and the dessert was good too. I got a chocolate mousse and it was incredibly rich, heavy, and terrible for you, but it tasted so good going down it didn't matter. The service was amazing, our waiter was very knowledgeable and friendly (plus we were the only ones there for an hour so he was more than happy to talk to us and entertain us with his knowledge of food and Brooklyn). Overall because i dont want to make this review longer than it is, this place is EXCELLENT. Really. I went on a sunday and had one of the best meals i've had in awhile in Boston. Thank you La Morra. read more

Fantastic food that is superbly prepared. An excellent wine list and some very good price fixed offerings. This was some of the very best Italian food we have enjoyed in the Boston area. Our table was ready when we arrived for our reservation. The staff was very nice, but we seemed to have several servers who couldn't quite coordinate all of our requests. In their defense, it was Saturday night, it was very busy, and they did get everything right on the second try. read more

For an expensive Italian meal, the food was quite mediocre, but the service was great. Avoid the salad at all costs.

We were in the area and found La Morra via the GPS! Didn't know what to expect (cause GPS is by no means like Yelp!) but were very pleased with our find! La Morra is best described as a little neighborhood Italian jewel! Delicious! We dinned on venison with celery root and potato side. The venison was fabulous! So tender, slightly smoky and cooked exactly as requested! The side, perfectly moist and wonderfully crusty on the top! For dessert, the chocolate mousse with chocolate coulis. Now, take it from a lactose intolerant person (who does NOT crave anything with milk or creme!) IT WAS GREAT! Worth the trip and will return for the Sunday evening "Family Style" dinner! read more

I live in a complete black hole of Italian food. Seriously, I don't know what the deal is. Nowhere in my vicinity can I find a decent pizza even, never mind some good pasta or god forbid, a decent tiramisu. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. So when my dining companion suggested I take the short drive to La Morra to give it a whirl I was immediately intrigued. I kept it simple and ordered but a single dish. Of course beforehand we were served fresh bread, perfectly crusty and chewy, with a completely decadent spread of ricotta and olive oil. This was followed by a complimentary dish of two small fried rice and porcini balls which we devoured, leading me to wish I had ordered approximately 300 of these tiny delights. Then onto the dish I had actually ordered: Agnello alla griglia con insalata (wood grilled lamb on fava bean bruschetta, with salsa verde, shaved radish and spring onion salad). The lamb was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the bruschetta it sat upon like a tiny throne was perfectly crisp despite having fava beans and salsa verde smeared on it and somewhat bloody chunks of lamb piled atop that. The combination of chewy lamb, soft fava/salsa verde spread (think the consistency of guacamole), and crunchy toasted thick bread was a perfect blend of textures. The flavors were subtle, perhaps even a tiny bit too subtle for my tastes, but overall an outstanding dish that I would not hesitate to order again. Service was friendly and that perfect blend of attentive without making you feel rushed. Perhaps this is more easily accomplished on a Monday night, but the waiter certainly made it seem effortless. All in all an excellent meal at fair prices with excellent service, served in a nice cozy/romantic atmosphere. I've heard this place can get loud but it was quite sedate, again possibly owing to the fact that it was a Monday evening and perhaps only 40% full. I look forward to returning and trying some of the other dishes that sounded great as well, in particular the Maiale confit con polenta (pork confit with polenta, pickled rhubarb and fiddleheads). And of course the desserts, especially the flourless chocolate hazelnut terrine with whipped cream and praline. Yes, I returned home and indulged in some dark chocolate. I should have just gotten the dessert at the restaurant, but there will certainly be a next time and I assure you, I will not fail to order dessert again! read more

The stuffed olives were over breaded and dry. The service was poorly timed meaning the wine for the tasting menu and the food did not come out together. The service was disjointed and the waitress did not keep us informed as to why the food was delayed. My duck was well prepared but the parsnip purée was overwhelming the taste of the duck. The deserts were unremarkable. read more

Our experience was great, and I wish we had visited sooner! There is street parking right in front and on the street behind the restaurant. The service was very attentive without feeling like they were rushing us along. We had lemonade and a lemonade "mock-tail" from the bar. It is actually more fun than it sounds and was very good. We started with the Arancini Di Riso, which was delicious, and then had the Insalata di Mais Alla Griglia, Agnolotti di Mais con Funghi, Tagliatelle Al Ragú, and finished with Peaches and Cream. The food was excellent! Every dish was full of flavor. I also liked that with the pasta you could get half portions, which is what allowed us to have room for dessert. read more

We were super excited to try this place after a good review from an acquaintance. The pros: space is lovely and cozy, and they have an excellent wine list. We ordered a few small bites to start - these were the real winners. The fried sage and anchovy was delicious. Cons: similar to other review I've read here, they were not prepared for our table (with a reservation). They had us wait in an odd little nook at the top of the stairs for about 30 minutes, which was awkward as we essentially were just staring at guests eating as well as waiters as they came up the stairs. When the host told us our table wasn't ready he gave us a cocktail list "to look at"...but seriously. Just to look at. As if that literature would keep us occupied while we waited. It was a bit odd (you would think the follow up would be, "we would be happy to bring you a drink while you wait for your table"). The service was OK but the waiter was not very knowledgeable about the menu, and there was quite a wait for each part of the evening - wine, food, dessert. Unfortunately, we were not very impressed with the entrees. The roasted hen with Brussels sprouts was ok - something I could make at home - but nothing to write home about. Hen was decent, Brussels sprouts were over cooked. My husband had a "lasagna" that was made with polenta - again, just OK. I think they'd be more successful if they stuck with simple Italian dishes. read more

La Morra is a really wonderful little place in Brookline. As I understand it, the folks that run it make trips to Italy once a quarter for inspiration. They have really nice range apps and cocktails, and make a fine arugula salad. The pastas dishes are always a great choice. They make it all fresh on premise, and always have a nice choice of interesting and authentic dishes. The bolognese is not to be missed. On the non-pasta side, try the skate dish if it's on the menu when you're there. The atmosphere there is also very charming. Make a reservation if you plan to go over the weekend because they tend to book up quickly. This is definitely one of the gems of Brookline. read more

Time to head to La Morra again--are there any rabbit or polenta dishes on the menu? While occasionally too salty (you can send it back), when they hit it, which is often enough, their food, if not always the presentation, is second to none. Service always cheerful, wine pairings helpful. And their polenta more often than not is the stuff of dreams. Like its closest competition in Brookline, Lineage, the price does limit the frequency of its pleasures, but what a treat when it's time. [While on a rather bleak stretch of Rt 9, there's usually street parking nearby and it's actually an easy walk from the Brookline Village T station.] read more

My husband and I tried La Morra this weekend and found it to be pretty good overall. The restaurant itself is warm and inviting and everyone working their was quite friendly. The smoked corn salad was delicious as was the orecchiette scampi however the hanger steak was chewy. It was a good not great meal and were happy we tried it but won't be rushing back anytime soon. read more

Admittedly this is my first review on Yelp in a very long time, but I felt compelled to write. My review echos a lot of the experiences of the other 1-2 stars for this restaurant. We had a 7:30 reservation and weren't seated until close to 8. We tried the Dine Out Boston tasting menu which had 4 courses...it took an extremely unreasonable amount of time for any food to come out. We ended up asking for our last 2 courses to go since it was 10pm on a Wednesday. The server, manager, and hostess did not seemed phased and didn't offer any sort of apology though we were obviously displeased. I had hoped the food at least would be good given the wait between courses and price tag but there were so many elementary cooking mistakes (over salted chicken, too much vinegar on an acidic salad, and undercooked fish) that I was left wanting. Noticed that the table next to us also got the wrong food and had to wait longer for their courses. All in all, it seemed like they were unprepared for Dine Out Boston, and you definitely do not get your money's worth in either quality or quantity. Sadly, we had high hopes but will not be returning. read more

I've come here many times just because it's convenient, but it's not a restaurant that I would go out of my way for. The food quality is average at best. There aren't many Italian restaurants in Brookline so my choices are kind of limited and that's why I've ended up here several times. My biggest complaint is that everything is overly salty. There is no way that I am the only person who feels this way. I also think that the menu is overpriced for the (lack of) quality of the food. read more

In the last year this has become my favorite place for Italian inspired food and good wine. The staff is spot on knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere is cozy enough to be a neighborhood comfort destination. Wine dinners are wonderful and I always learn something. read more

The atmosphere is nice but the food is not. Went with GF and her friends and my food was undercooked and the rest did not taste very good. I literally had to nuke it at home so I could finish it. Also be prepared to spend some money. For the price I was completely disappointed. 2 Stars are for the ambiance and location. Never again. read more

Wow. I showed up at 10:26--the kitchen closes at 10:30--and was treated as though I showed up at anytime during dinner. The chefs, especially the cute, tall, red head (lady), were as professional as they were cordial and friendly. At La Morra, you will feel like you've come home. read more

I had a fantastic dinner at La Morra Sunday night. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. We had come from a performance and were 45 minutes early for our reservation. We had thought we'd have a drink at a bar nearby to pass the time but the neighborhood is pretty devoid of any other options, so we showed up early, thinking we'd have a drink there and wait, but no problem, they accommodated us right away. Our table was on the first floor, and against the wall which was a bit tough space wise for my tall, broad shouldered date, but our waitress Kirsten was very accommodating and helped us move the table from the wall a bit to give him a bit more room. The wine list was Italian and although I wanted something more adventurous I really liked the description of the Chardonnay and I was not disappointed, really full bodied without an overly oaky flavor. We ordered several of their little bar snacks as a starter, which were quite good and as promised, came out almost immediately. The kitchen sent us several amuses, including a gnocchi and some cod which my date enjoyed despite his general dislike of fish, so you know it was good! The bolognese was delicious, not what I was expecting but there was so much meat in it, it was tender and tasty. We split the appetizer portion and I appreciated they plated it separately, sharing pasta can be a messy affair otherwise. Our steaks were cooked perfectly to both of our preferences, very flavorful and generous portions. The sides were great too. We got desserts to go (one of my top tips for dining out!) and a few hours later enjoyed the chocolate tart immensely, great contrasting textures and dark chocolate deliciousness! From start to finish our service was impeccable, attentive without being intrusive. The food runner always graciously explained the food that was delivered, and all in all, everyone was extremely pleasant. If you don't mind a place a bit off the beaten path, and are into Italian food that doesn't require a red sauce to make it so, consider giving La Morra a try! Reasonable prices for the quality, nice atmosphere and attentive staff, it's a nice date spot for sure! read more

I can't believe I haven't reviewed this place yet. The food is awesome. They change up the menu ever season and there is always something on the menu that is too good to be true. The only downside is too many fried items for appetizers or "conchetti" (sp?) I am not a fan of fried olives or tomatoes. The arancinis and the meat balls are delicious. Any entree you order will be good. Sit at the bar! You will get great service from former Behan Bartender Bernie. She will make sure you are taken care of. The place needs a hipper clientele and some music, otherwise this places rocks. Too bad it can't be moved to JP centre. Wait... Cafe D is gone? Ain't it? read more

2.5 Stars. Uneven experience. Restaurant ambience and service were "good". Our waiter was terrific. Some dishes were very good and others were ok. Apps: great mixed green salad but Robiola cheese w/ figs was underwhelming. Mains: Tagliatelle w/ ragu was flavorful but the meat was a little tough. Trout and haddock were cooked very well but side accompaniments were just ok. Fresh capellini w/ truffles was a mess. Over-cooked. Dry. Bland. Expensive. One annoying thing: we were the first table of the evening and they stuck us at a tiny table in the corner. When we asked for a better table they told us ok but that we would have to get up by a certain time. Guess I appreciate getting moved but they never should have stuck us at the worst table to begin with... Might try it again but might not. & read more

Wow, what a find. Went here for restaurant week with a friend and was blown away. Great cocktails, great italian tapas - bruschetta is amazing. Pasta is fabulous and you won't be disappointed with dessert. The service is great, the atmosphere is romantic and it's closer than you think. read more

Restaurant week and 4 courses for $33! Yes please. I had the arugula and basil salad which was good, I forgot that basil was supposed to be in it and I don't remember tasting it, but the salad was great with very thin zucchini and parmigano (which was also in great giant slices). Nice light dressing on it and I ate all of it. I then had the linguine with cherry tomatoes and herbs which was great as well other than I felt the pasta was a bit undercooked but I still ate all of it knowing that that is how it is traditionally done (silly American taste buds...) I then had the fried eggplant which must have come from the biggest eggplant I will never see. I didn't expect it to be breaded, just fried in oil, but their way was much nicer! It was pretty oily though and I could not finish it because of that. I felt there could be another cheese that would have been better, but the fact that the mozzarella was homemade was pretty amazing to me. I finished with the sorbet which was not a trio as listed online, but a large scoop of mango with fresh berries and really nice biscotti which all went together well. I had two drinks, one was the blackberry one which was amazing (as long as you like blackberries) and the tropical one, which came with a homemade sword with a cherry and lime on it (which I promptly destroyed trying to figure out how to make the sword. This drink was great too, but I felt there could have been more of another tropical flavor to make it pop. Nice atmosphere that was well light but not too bright for dinner. The first wall upstairs is filled with reviews from newspapers and letters from guests thanking them. All the staff were very nice and our server was great at explaining anything we had a question on (including 'I can't pick between these two, what should I get' which was common at our table.) read more

Restaurant Week Review 2008 Atmosphere: I liked it. The place is cozy and nicely decorated. Romantic! I echo the recommendation to get a table upstairs. It was quiet and lovely. Service: Very attentive, waitress was able to answer all our questions, we frequently had our water refilled, the glasses never got less than half full. Price: For $33.08 apiece we got appetizers, a 'pasta' course, an entree, and dessert. I consider that a decent deal, though there are a lot of 'upgrades' on the menu that could bump your cost significantly. Food: Really variable. For the apps, the lobster soup was pretty mediocre. The polenta croutons in it were good, though. The soup just didn't have much flavor. I got the bruschetta. I think Roma tomatoes go better on a bruschetta, but these were beefsteak tomatoes which still were not bad. The pesto was delicious. The bread tastes like it was grilled on a grill made out of garlic. Yum. The problem was the bottom of the bread was charred to charcoal. I tried just sawing off the black parts, but eventually had to send it back. They basically made me an entire new dish of bruschetta, so that was a nice apology. I had tomato risotto for the next dish, which was a nice, hearty risotto that I thought was quite decent. My husband had lobster fettucelle, which was a very plain-looking plate of pasta with a few chunks of lobster and shaved zucchini. No sauce or other flavoring. The plus was that the pasta was homemade tasting, but this definitely was not worth the extra charge. I asked for Parmesan cheese, and the waitress said "um... I'm not sure we have any..." yikes! She did manage to scrape up about a half a ramikin of cheese, luckily. For the main course, my husband got some bluefish, which I did not sample, but it did come with creamy mashed potato that was pretty good. I had an eggplant lasagna that definitely had a lot of eggplant in it, and it seemed like it could have been amazing, but just wasn't. The tomato sauce was almost nonexistent, I think more of that would have helped since as it was, it was a pile of flaky eggplant with a little smear of ricotta in between. Dessert was a great end to the meal, I had mango sorbet that came garnished with blueberries, and my husband got vanilla panna cotta with a raspberry coulis. The mango sorbet was great, top notch, and the panna cotta tasted like heaven - it was like gelatinized whipped cream, and I love whipped cream. Unfortunately the coulis tasted like cough syrup. So there were a lot of good points about this restaurant, and I'm happy I went, but it gets only 3 stars for half the food being not very tasty and being a pricey place. It's OK to pay big bucks for amazing food, but not for just 'quite decent' food. I would give a weak recommendation to friends. read more

We travel to Boston on a somewhat regular basis. For two years we have driven by this place and always wanted to stop so last week, we did. It was around 5:00PM before a Red Sox game and it wasn't too crowded. The parking is Valet for $8 so be prepared. When I say Valet, it's because they call it that...not me. As other reviews add, there are two floors, we were on the first floor. Lots of tables in a small space. Luckily, we arrived early and didn't go elbow to elbow with anyone. For me, if it were even filled to 2/3 it's capacity, I would have turned away. It would not be a place were one could have a conversation without the neighboring tables hearing you. The service was good but I really think the waitress was medicated. She seemed sort of odd. We did get a second waitress who we thought was quite pleasant though. I order the lamb and my wife order the hanger steak. Both dishes were awesome. The bill, with a bottle of vino and no desert came to about $90 without tip. All in all, it was very nice but I would never go there except during off hours and not on the weekend. read more

Love this place! I needed a good place to meet my daughter between my work and her class, so I picked La Morra based on location and the good Yelp reviews. We loved our meal! It was honestly some of the best food we've had in quite a while. What really hooked us was the service. Our waiter (I wish I had gotten his name because he deserves a shoutout) was awesome. My daughter and I have a host of food allergies and are on strict diets. We had a ton of questions and he reviewed a lot of the ingredients with us. For questions he didn't know the answer to, he checked with the kitchen. The host and the manager were also wonderful. We will definitely return soon. read more

We tried this restaurant after getting a $25 gift certificate (for $4.50 from restaurant.com) and figured we had nothing to lose. It was wonderful. We opted for the prix fixe dinner accompanied by a different wine with each course. The selection of main courses on the prix fixe was a little limited but I was offered a vegetarian entree as a substitution. Everything was delicious and we enjoyed trying new wines. We had a relaxing meal and attentive service. It reminded us of meals we had enjoyed in Florence and Venice. If we can't go to Italy, at least we can eat at La Morra! read more

Wonderful wait staff. Had hear great things about this place and most of it didn't disappoint however I was left a little underwhelmed by at least a few dishes. The lobster pasta was not very good and the eggplant parm was way too salty and over-fried. The bruschetta was different and quite nice as was the dessert option and another pasta we had. Nice ambiance. Overall, wasn't blown away but wasn't disappointed too much either. read more

Cozy and nice, but over seasoned in general... Huge peppercorn chunks in the risotto! Still, great wine list and the hangar steak was cooked perfectly. read more

Nice atmosphere. On my visit we had 3 different apps, 2 mains and 3 sides. Nothing special. Just ok. I'd actually say 2.5 stars if I could. The authentic atmosphere was spoiled by less than authentic taste read more

The food was good overall and there were unique findings on the menu, but overall the experience and food was good but not exceptional.... I had the tasting menu: Spring garlic sformatto (loved it!), Baked orrechiette (loved it!), Wood grilled local blue fish and sorbet. It was a great atmosphere, unexpectedly nice for just "next to" route 9... read more

Do you like Italian food? I love Italian food. If you believe me, go here. If you don't, go here anyway. Wanna know how I knew it was going to be good? When we sat down, we only heard Italian being spoken. Victory was just around the corner. I had the black linguini, delicious, lobsta ravioli, spectacular, salt crusted fish, melted on my lingua, friend calamari, thank you sir may I have another. The duck was a little dry so beware of ordering that, unless you like slightly dry duck. Tiramisu was also light and fantastic. I left very happy and had calamari dreams that night. read more

Great service and they make for a wonderful experience out. Tables are pretty close together, but, here, it seems to fit the ambiance. Wait staff is attentive and accommodating. Parking available at the bank next door in the evenings which is helpful, but street parking in the area is usually easy on Rt 9. We liked on the menu there were different sized plates to try various things without over ordering. read more

Delicious Italian food in a beautiful nook of a 2-story restaurant. The chef's and wait staff were absolutely on the ball, and it was a very special night out. Thank you for making it so great for us! read more

I don't frequent this restaurant much since I don't live in the area but since my last visit (more than a year ago) the food at this restaurant seems to have gone downhill. Perhaps they have a new chef but I went on a Friday night and had the porchetta and it was a big disappointment. It was extremely dry and it looked more like a roasted piece of pork, not one that is traditionally rolled around a stuffed pork loin. The service was great so I gave this place three stars. read more

My boyfriend brought me here for my birthday. Service: We had a reservation and they seated us at an adorable table in the corner upstairs. The servers were nice and attentive. The chef also sent out a complimentary appetizer. Food: while great service is nice, good food is why I go to a restaurant and the food here disappointed. We opted for the prix fixe menu. For appetizers we got the squash soup which was creamy and flavorful with a bit of spice- was great, and the salad which had apples, pine nuts, raisins- was good but I could make a similar salad. For antipasti -these were both flavorful but a little too salty. Entrees: he had the bluefin tuna which tasted like the fish had been sitting out all day and was overcooked. This came with a side of a chickpeas in a tomato sauce which tasted like it came out of a tomato sauce can. I had pork chops on a bed of spinach. The spinach was spinach with some olive oil. The pork was tender and flavorful. Dessert: he had the fall tart which was spiced like fall and delicious. I had the chocolate tart which was a cold slice clearly kept in a fridge for easy use and was a little dry. I give this place two stars because I wouldn't come back and the entrees were quite disappointing, which I think is the most important component. read more

We had a family dinner there for Mother's Day. Great service and friendly waitress. But food is ok, not stellar, for the price. Generally, the entrees need to be improved. read more

Second visit and with a group - was fantastic! Our server was very helpful and the food was exquisite. My group had never been before and were all raving about it after. Still absolutely the best Italian in Boston. read more

Never disappointed by the food or service. Almost always a full house, plan ahead and reserve a table so you won't be disappointed. Their fixed price menu with the wine sampling is a great way to go at $50. read more

Great restaurant! We made a reservation for 7:45 on a Saturday night, and they happily sat us 30 minutes early when we arrived. Every meal starts with a thick piece of bread and some whipped ricotta with oil, salt and pepper. I would have liked less bread and more of the cheese. As much as was offered to a table for four should be provided to every pair of people. The apps were delicious. We ordered the corn salad, which was simple and flavorful, but perhaps a bit small for the price. The arrincini were tasty, but the center lacked enough meat and the cheese was not melted enough. Also, they were a bit bare without any sauce or other dipping option. The fried olives were good, but I would have preferred more to the stuffing. Perhaps cheese and something else instead of sundried tomatoes. The polenta fries were very tasty and cooked perfectly, but again, they were very plain and could have used some flavor accompany, like a homemade ketchup or a red sauce. The meatballs were tasty, but I did not like the texture of the various ingredients, and they were very greasy. The chicken/duck liver pate spread was delicious. It was not clearly described as a paste on the menu, but we really enjoyed it. The corn ravioli was delicious, if not a bit sweet. I would have liked this offered with something salty, like a pancetta or spicy sausage. The pasta bolognese was delicious, with more of a short rib meat sauce than ground meat. A few of the bits of meat were a bit fatty, but the majority was perfect, and the pasta itself was delicious. Good, but not extensive, list of mostly italian wines and signature drinks. Valet parking is available, but street parking is very easy. read more

We went to La Morra on Thursday night and it was a great experience. Our waitress was wonderful and took the time to explain the menu to us. The food was delicious too! One person from the party got the pri fixed menu. The orrichetti with squash sauce, mustard greens and pancetta was delicious!! Even the bread with homemade ricotta was mouthwatering! The only downfall is that it's too far from us and its street parking on Route 9! read more
