Excellent service coupled with very delicious food and extremely ample servings. Great value for the money. The Wedding soup is awesome!!!

This place is a hidden gem! I had not been here in years and recently met some girlfriends here for dinner and everything here was so fresh and delicious! We split several entrees which came with salads and the bread and garlic butter is ridiculously good! I didn't take any pictures because my son insisted on sitting on my lap during the meal, and made a huge mess which our server was beyond sweet about. She even brought him a little plate of pasta salad to munch on! My favorites were the lasagna and crab cake with pasta, but everything was top notch! Very nice on the inside as well and considering how close I live, I definitely need to come back more often! read more

This restaurant is so unassuming from the outside, tucked between a bunch of shops and restaurants in a small strip mall off Sawmill. I'm from a big Italian family, and walking in the door I felt like I was walking into my grandparents home growing up. The space is small and a little noisy with bustling conversations and little space between tables, but that's totally fine. We had a reservation on a Saturday night and I'm glad we did - the place was packed! We had the chicken parm and pasta Moretti - both outstanding. Portions are substantial, but that's ok - plenty to take home! Homemade bread and butter was the icing on the cake. The cream pasta sauce was rich and definitely won't be a regular indulgence, but Moretti's will be a top choice for special occasions (or just downright amazing comfort food). This was Italian done right. read more

We visited Columbus for a birthday weekend, and Italian food is a must. We chose to head to Dublin to try Morettis based on the Yelp! reviews...boy were we glad we did! From the crab cakes and fried eggplant appetizers, the tossed salads, pasta with meatballs to the chicken parmigiana. Every single thing was fantastic. This was one of the best-prepared chicken parmigiana dishes we've ever had. We'll definitely go again next time we're in the area. read more

This mom-n-pop Italian restaurant is a big hit for the locals, it seems. We had to have a reservation and it was packed until closing time! And that was a Monday?!?! If that doesn't say it all, I don't know what does! The bread was so delish and so appreciated by our hungry group of five! When we finished the first basket and complimented them on it, they gave us a second one! Wow! This is old-school dining. It's a rare-ity in this day and age! The dinners come with a side of salad or soup, and mind you, the soup was an entree-size Italian Wedding Soup, which was a first for me and it was delectable! Then when I saw the dinner portions I knew right away that I was in trouble. Big portions, not enormous, just big. I had the crab cakes atop a bed of pasta, I mean, two large crab cakes. SO good. My sister had the sausage lasagna, another hit. And the guys had their seafood pasta. Portions are large, so plan ahead--don't fill up on bread and soup! But then again, you would not be able to resist anyway. Just plan to have leftovers if you're not a big eater! read more

I'm obviously failing in my responsibilities to highlight amazing locations in the area. This is one of our favorites and just realized I have never given them the kudos they deserve. The Sawmill location of Moretti's is an incredible locals stop for amazing Italian food. Homemade pasta and bread, along with delicious dishes. You need reservations on most nights but can on occasion sneak in and grab a bar seat. The hostesses, bartenders and wait staff are all incredible, so you can't go wrong. Large parking lot in front of the strip mall location - across Sawmill from Sam's/Home Depot. Even if you are a health nut, please enjoy their ball of homemade bread - crazy good. You get a lot of food, so we typically skip appetizers (green beans and their crumbled sausage are both great), but there are several good ones if that is your thing. Entrees come with a very nice house salad also with homemade dressing, but if you prefer their Italian Wedding Soup is a staple here. This week they were crowded so we grabbed the bar stools and we tried the Garlic Shrimp and the Cheese Ravioli w/Meatballs. Both (pictured) were delicious. Would order again or go to their best Chicken Moretti - which is their version of Alfredo. They also have homemade desserts for your night cap. Thanks to everyone at Moretti's, we appreciate the quality you always deliver. read more

Made dinner reservations for our out of town guest at my favorite Italian restaurant, homemade pasta dishes are always excellent and consistent. Service is spot on . Nowhere else comes close. Believe me I've tried them all. If I could you would receive 6 stars for food and service! read more

We take home from Moretti's on a regular basis. It is always delicious. Our favorite is... everything. Even the bread and salad are exceptional. The homemade pasta is top notch. Recently the lasagna, manicotti, chicken parm and ravioli have made their way to our kitchen. Highly recommend!! read more

This is a traditional Italian restaurant that I love! Their menu selection is great, but the food is absolutely wonderful. The service staff are especially nice and terrific. read more

Our first visit and definitely will not be back- too many negatives: Waited 10 minutes for the hostess to show up- why? She was in the kitchen getting a take out order ready- short on staff? An over crowded dining room that was small and confining- our table was so small that the large bread basket took about a quarter of the space. Speaking of the bread- yes it is home made BUT it was cold and in no way resembled warm crusty Italian bread that a good Italian restaurant serves. The salad was an adventure- you have to pick at it to find the lettuce with all the other items they have mixed in. My Chicken Parmesan was good but the pasta was lukewarm and I was not ready for the unusual spicy kick of the tomato sauce. My wife had the ravioli and meatballs which she found good but not exceptional. Best part of the meal was the tiramisu- exceptional. read more

Excellent service, great food, huge portions, fresh ingredients, and reasonable pricing.

Service is great, but this place is TIRED. We went for a special occasion and aren't from the area. Based on reviews we thought it would be a good choice. Food was good, not great. Don't be misled by the Italian wedding soup. It's just chicken soup...nothing close to Italian wedding. Again, service was great. The ambiance...definitely needs some investment , attention, and sprucing up. Avoid if you are looking for anything that feels remotely special. read more

Morettis is definitely one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Columbus! This is the type of restaurant you want to come hungry to because there is so much delicious food and large portions! It's a smaller dining space so i recommend calling ahead for a reservation. I always start out with the bread and butter and the salad with creamy Gorgonzola dressing. The bread and butter is unreal amazing, I could eat the entire loaf. The herb butter has the best flavor! The creamy Gorgonzola dressing is one of my favorite creamy dressings, I prefer it to the balsamic dressing. For my entree I tried the chicken padrone so I could get a few veggies in with my dinner. The chicken was cooked perfectly, the sauce and pasta both had great flavor and were the perfect consistency. I would definitely order this again. I also love the chicken moretti, but like that this comes with some different veggies. My boyfriend ordered the chicken parmesan. This is one of his favorite chicken parms in the city. We always have leftovers for lunch the next day! read more

I've been to Moretti's twice and finally decided to give a review after some thought. I'm not sure if I can say I LOVE Moretti's, but it's definitely an establishment I'll come to occasionally. I would say it's mostly because my partner loves Moretti's a lot more than I do. Please make a reservation. The first time I was here they stopped writing people's names down even though it was only 7ish. It gets extremely packed. Honestly they pack you in like sardines haha I was so close to the other table if I moved my arm it would probably touch theirs. At one point I was getting anxious because of how close everyone was to each other and the amount of people that were in the building. Your meal comes with bread, butter, and choice of soup or salad. I believe the soups change from time to time, since I was offered different soups on the days I came here. The bread and butter is delicious. One thing to note is that the fettuccini noodles tasted a lot different from what I am used to. These fettuccini noodles had a different texture and they were very thick. It took me some time to get used to. The first time I came here I got the King Salmon for $25. I thought this was a bit expensive but I shrugged it off because salmon tends to go for a little more at restaurants. I immediately regretted it because the salmon was dry. I didn't even finish it. I was pretty upset because salmon is my favorite fish to eat. My partner looked so happy eating his Chicken Moretti that I was sooo jealous. After trying his chicken, I knew I had to get the Chicken Moretti next time. The second time I was here I came with my family. My mom said everything was too salty and she and my sister couldn't finish the crab cake (My partner and I on the other hand love the crab cake - it was probably too zesty for them). The Chicken Moretti was delicious so I'll probably stick to that for now on when I come. We had two servers. One server was really great and attentive. The other server reached across my partner to hand me my plate -- in my hands -- and didn't set it down on the table. Weirdly she handed everyone's plate in their hands and expected everyone to set it down themselves. It through me off a little bit, maybe because I'm used to servers setting down my plate and not expecting me to... read more

Disappointing meal. I've heard some nice things about this place, but the food was just OK. The place felt run down. We were wedged at a two top next to the wall and were still able to see sauce stains on the wall despite the dark lighting. Won't be back. ... More read more

A disappointing dinner. The only item I ever have is the sausage lasagna.. I've been eating this meal for over 30 years, starting with the Moretti's in Grandview Hts. Tonight, there was a lack of sausage and lack of flavor. The meal has gone from a sausage-covered lasagna to sporadic sausage pieces mixed into the sauce, which also needed a large boost of seasoning. The thick layers of pasta, meat, and sauce have been replaced by a couple of layers of pasta and meat sauce--unsatisfying. The final insult was the leftovers placed in cheap styrofoam containers with the butter just slopped next to the bread. No Moretti's no more. read more

Excellent as always. Anniversary dinner every year. Veal Moretti - all I have to say - chefs kiss!

I have been going here for about 20 years. This place hasn't changed except for updating the prices on the menu. and everybody seems to like it that way. The Italian food menu is very traditional. The portions are huge. The food is delicious. For foodies looking for new interpretations of Italian cuisine, and the most recent trends in restaurants, this is not your place. For those looking for it excellent Italian food, entrées less than $30 and plenty of food to take home for tomorrow, this place is fantastic. It's just a touch dated and service is OK but not great so it's really four stars. read more

Food great , large portions But very disappointed they didn't have my reservation I had made 17 days in advance No apologies or offer to help even though I showed that I had called . Told it would be a 2 hour wait or my party could sit at bar ( one chose to leave ) She Could have at least comped a glass of wine read more

In a small strip mall , easy to miss! Saw this on yelp and needed something fresh as I'm watching my diet. The lasagna like everything else looked amazing but was layered with cheese. I opted for the garlic chicken, which was pricey but sounded fresh! It had chicken , garlic, pine nuts, and some red sautéed peppers, and olive oil...and that is all. I was expecting some kind of herb or seasoning or something but there was no seasoning I could find. Very bland, I suggested adding sun dried tomatoes, or oregano/ rosemary. I added some lemon to try to liven it up. The Italian wedding soup was good but had more chicken in it than sausage which was just strange. The Italian bread they bring to your table was huge but again... bland with little flavor. I wouldn't recommend this place for a clean meal but if your looking to junk it up or carb load maybe give it a try! read more

I ate at Moretti's 2 times during Memorial week and both meals were Fabulous. I ordered the Veal Moretti my first night and ordered the chicken moretti by 2nd visit and surprisingly, the chicken was better than the veal . I ordered their sausage appetizer with sautéed onions and peppers and it was as good as my entree! The servers were very helpful and this restaurant is a Must Visit when you're in Dublin, OH read more

This restaurant is a classic the food and wine are second to none our waiter, James was a pro Can't believe it took so long to find this place My manicotti was perfect I mean perfect The salad which sometimes might be overlooked was a great app to the main course If you think you know Italian stop here and you will read more

Not a fan. Four of us went last night, and we all agree that the one in Arlington is much better. We were seated in a private corner booth right by the front door, and on a cold night was not ideal but not a huge issue. My salad was kind of odd. It had a lot of different kinds of pasta with lettuce and green beans. It was a hassle to eat and and odd combination with little flavor. The bread comes cold and my fiancé didn't care for it since it was cold and it was ok for me. The butter was delicious though and you could put that on anything and make it tasty. I ordered a breaded veal with pasta, mushrooms and a red sauce. The veal was fairly chewy and had little flavor. The pasta was like ramen noodles and ok. There were 4 us and we split a $30 bottle of wine. Mine was $31 and hers was $23. Had piece of tiramisu and they don't have a desert menu so I'm not sure how much it was. My bill was hand written and I didn't think much of it until we left and I found out my friends told them to split the bottle. 31+23+15 is $69 plus whatever the tiramisu cost so how my bill was $99.98 really doesn't make sense to me. Parking on a Friday or Saturday isn't great and we all agreed that the quality of food you get for the price is far from worth it. None of us will return again. read more

After a dear friend absolutely raved about this restaurant, we had dinner here about 10 years ago. I am Italian, so I guess I am a bit of a snob when it comes to Italian restaurants. My meal at Moretti's, from the bread to the dessert, was one of the most fantastic meals I've ever had in a restaurant! The service and ambience were awesome, too!! Highly, highly recommend!! I would really love to go there more often, but it is a long drive from where I live. read more

BEH-liiiiiiSimo! (Part 1 of 2) A homemade treat in rumored to be the best Italian in the entire city of Columbus Ohio. I have to agree, based on the SAUCE, SPAGHETTI & the "Veal Parm" I tried on this #FirstVisitEverMorettisSawmillCBUS How have I lived in Columbus for 25 years and not know about the, "other Moretti's". Every once in a while, your circle of friends gets to talking about the best restaurants in Columbus. Eventually, you end up talking about Italian food and the names roll out; everyone's got their favorites; everyone's claiming some thing about somewhere. Some of them you've tried, some of them you haven't tried. The Best Columbus secrets has always been Claudiano's in my book, for their seafood bowl but I just found out about, "Moretti's on sawmill". Yes, there's another Moretti's! (And it's not the lackluster performance you got down on Grandview Avenue, I guess that's the cousin!) I only went there once, but I wasn't impressed. It could've been Italian fast food like Fazoli's is my memory. But that's not. What's happening up on sawmill Road! Do you think you've had veal Parmesan? Do you think you've had spaghetti? Do you think you've had handmade spaghetti? Do you think they cooked it to Al Dente perfection anywhere else)? --------------No!-------------- Honestly, I was hooked when I had a fork full of perfectly cooked, homemade spaghetti. It was thicker than the normal angel hair or thicker than normal spaghetti. Really, unless you're making this at home in boiling it with your eye on the pot constantly, I don't know how you can get this perfect. I spontaneously tried to round up a few of my friends at the last minute around 4 o'clock, but everybody was busy so I ended up walking in to see what this is all about. A humble store front amidst a little strip mall on sawmill, across from Home Depot, you wouldn't think that all the cars in the parking lot were most likely people packing the Sawmill Moretti's's location, but when you walk in the door , you find booths packed with double couples, squeezed in with a bottle of wine and four glasses, having a classy conversation in a beautifully renovated masculine format with gray walls, black and white highlights, and marble countertops on your right, stretching as far as the eye can see back towards the bathrooms, were the wine eventually forms the line. Barbie, behind the bar is ray of sunshine with a bright and entertaining personality, keeping a solo trip interesting in the wine coming. (Continued....) read more

How to say what's better the service for the food. By far the best italian wedding suite ever.

As always, superb, delicious, and such generous portions, even on take out! Thank you!

This place rocks. The food is delicious and the portions are HUGE! We know we will have at least a second or third meal out of what we get here. Also their cannoli are incredible! Great staff that make the small dining area feel very personal. read more

Probably my favorite Italian restaurant of all time They do Italian "comfort food" like no other. The food is very rich and heavy, but extraordinary. Even their bread basket with herbed butter is heaven on earth. I gave up eating Veal years ago, but their Veal Moretti is one of the best dishes I ever had. Their Chicken Moretti is also incredible. I have had their Lasagna, Ravioli, and Eggplant Parmigiana on several occasions. All are exceptional. You will be so stuffed you won't want to eat again for days. read more

Where have you been all my life? The homemade pasta is so delicious it's gotta be somebody's grandmother's recipe. The noodles are dense and eggy, you can tell they're made from scratch. No fillers or flavor enhancers needed. We got there meals for five of us to split which was plenty. The portions are generous! We had fettuccine Alfredo, chicken Parmesan, and eggplant Parmesan. The eggplant was sliced thick, perfectly breaded and fried and didn't have that soggy edge to it like most eggplant dishes can have at other places. Both the marinara and Alfredo sauces were rich and flavorful. Again, you can tell these are made with real ingredients from scratch. My favorite part were the sautéed mushrooms on top. Perfection! But I can't leave out the sides; the side salad and bread. The salad comes with house dressing (which is the bomb) and a few undressed noodles, marinated green beans and tomatoes. Crazy simple, but so good. And the rolls and butter; stop everything you're doing and make sure you have room for them! The rolls are crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside and the herb and garlic infused butter is the stuff dreams are made of. Every bite was worth every penny. I've lived in Columbus for 20 years and have NO IDEA why I've never tried this place before but I guarantee you I'll be back! read more

Insanely delicious Italian food and very friendly service. Pasta is made fresh and the sauce is incredible. I got a spaghetti and meat sauce dish and it was a huge portion. Also got Wedding Soup instead of salad and it was good, nothing like the family recipe though hardly anyone compares to that though. Even the leftovers were delicious. The boys got sausage pizza but I was way too stuffed to even try it, the portions of the dishes the boys got too were huge so take it to go if you can't finish and eat it again!! read more

We sat at the bar on a busy Friday night. Morettis seems like a neighborhood place; we were driving across Ohio and were treated like regulars. The house salad had crisp lettuce, tomatoes, green beans, and cheese. It was delicious. The chicken piccata was huge and so creamy, with huge fresh mushrooms. The crumbled sausage was also good and very filling. Save room for their tiramisu! read more

I love this place. Food is spectacular. Great patio and hidden gem in Upper Arlington.

Wonderful!! If you're lucky enough to have Karen as your server she is so kind and efficient! All of our meals couldn't have been better. Best pasta. Ever!! It's a tight fit in the dinning room but they seem to make it work. Food worth the smaller space. Bread and better is amazing as well!! read more

This place is always packed, so we've never actually dined in. Saturday night was no exception as there was a 2 hour wait at 5:30pm when we picked up our food! Calling in our food was relatively easy and there was a 30 minute lead time. When we got there to pick up our food, the hostess was less than helpful in directing patrons where to go to pick up food. She had us wait in line with the other guests who were waiting to put their names down for a table?! Social distancing was not enforced as there were so many people inside in the waiting area standing close to one another, not to mention patrons at the bar who were essentially 1-2 ft. from the other parties. The food is pricey, but delicious. The bread is wonderful as well. We got the fettuccine, ravioli, chicken parmesan, and veal Mortetti meals. These came with salad or Italian wedding soup. Portions are huge and can be shared. Food gets 5 stars and amibance/service gets 2. read more

Unfortunately, our experience was not good. We barely touched the food. The appetizer and entree were served lukewarm. The salad was wilted and had brown edges. A plate had to be replaced because it had dried food on it. The waitress was very attentive. We should have sent the food back. This looks like more an exception than the rule for Moretti's. We will not go back. read more

The food is the star--and it's outstanding, truly. Big, hearty, bold flavors that hit you right in the face. Unfortunately, that's also true of the two giant flags (one "Let's Go Brandon" and one "Save America 2024") that hang in the kitchen, visible any time the doors swing open. Tasty. Tasty and tacky. read more

Such a great place! We had their house soup and salad and with both we knew the entrees were going to be good. We had the Veal Francoise and Veal Scaloppini. The veal was tender and juicy and the sauces outstanding. The Homemade pasta was beautifully cook to perfection slightly done al dente made the dishes. A great bottle of Chianti and we needed to be rolled out. The portion size is huge so go hungry! DJ our server was very attentive and service by all the staff friendly. If you are hungry for Italian food, you will not be disappointed. I look forward to coming back. read more
