    Carbonara and lasagna
    Denise T.

    First night in London and found this gem nearby with help from Yelp. Started with garlic bread that was yummy but more like a garlic pizza. The men enjoyed the lasagna which had homemade layers of pasta with melted top layer of gooey cheese. Nice sized portions too. I loved my creamy carbonara My sister said the spaghetti and meatballs had good flavor with tons of noodles. Could easily be shared. I finished with panne cotta that was so light and creamy , Rhoda and Chris had with tiramisu and Jon had gelato. All were excellent!!! Another great find with Yelp and a wonderful start to our European vacation. Clark Griswald- eat your heart out...

    Amazing Pizza
    Randy P.

    OMG, thank you for amazing service. Came in at closing on a Sunday, asked for a pizza to go. They were very accommodating, and there pizza is amazing, Coming from the U.S. It is hard to find pizza with good flavor. This pizza is awesome. I actually ordered a pizza with a few different ingredients and the owner or manager took excellent care of me. They are next to the Holiday inn express, must eat there.

The chef is Sardinian so you can also order delicious Sard pasta and wine. We have two young children so were glad to find two high chairs available and the two ladies who served us were delightful with our little ones. Can't wait until our next meal there!

We specialise in fresh pasta, handmade in small quantities in our kitchen: we make tagliatelle, pappardelle & tagliolini every day, ravioli, gnocchi & tortelloni as part of our weekly specials. Using seasonal and carefully selected ingredients sourced from small, artisan producers our chef Carlo created a menu offering mouth-watering traditional Italian dishes like tagliolini cacio e pepe, melanzane alla parmigiana and tiramisu, typical Sardinian specialities like fregola with prawns & bottarga and seadas, as well as some original creations like our delicious pannacotta with mirto liqueur. When in season, a truffle special menu is also available, featuring beef carpaccio, risotto, tagliolini and ribeye, all seasoned with generous shavings of truffle. Get your taste buds ready for your foodie experience at Mora with an aperitif - spritz and negroni are on the menu! Choose one from our natural, organic, biodynamic wines from Italy or local craft beers to match with your food, and Buon Appetito! You can end your meal in style with a glass of dessert wine, classic Italian liqueur like mirto, limoncello or amaro, or artisan spirit crafted in East London.

    I am quite confused on how this restaurant is receiving such good reviews and so many stars for…read moreapparently having such "freshly made pasta" when really this is not the case. I had the unfortunate luck to work for Simone Remoli for a sort period of time, he loves to take employees from other jobs to try them out and then fire them after he finds someone better (basically playing with peoples lives). Just to enlighten everyone his pasta is NOT freshly made everyday and neither is the sea food that some people order with their pasta dishes, the proper name for it is like my favourite chef Gordan Ramsey likes to say it's all FRESH FROZEN. Simone Remoli could have been an inspiration to the italian food but unfortunately he is a gluttonous and egotistic person that will serve you food that has been sitting in his fridges for 5 days and freezes for months, with prices that are sky high. If any food inspectors see this review please be my guest and go forth to inspect his food. Make sure you go unexpectedly that is the best time.

However, they do their pasta to cook at home or to take away as well as to eat in. It was a nice evening so we decided to take it out and sat in the Olympic Park. The pasta was really good and they crammed a lot into the take away tubs. You choose the pasta, the sauce, the cheese and any sides and drinks you want. I had the bolognaise and whilst it was tasty, it could have done with a few more herbs and a bit more meatiness. For the price I would go there again though.
