Thursday night the restaurant had a few people dining but was quiet and not busy. Everything we ordered was awesome. Fresh pasta and sauce was excellent and the ability to order “flights” of appetizers or pastas was really good way to try a bunch of stuff.

Still a great choice in the area. Italian style and ambience. Good bar, wine selection and next door Nicoletta pizzeria a plus -- small pizzas and sandwiches a treat. Last time for dinner at Morini, noted change to recipe of favorite tasty polpettini, and chicken dish a bit salty. Menu may have been scaled back. Homemade pastas always a sure fire hit as well as tempting daily specils.

Don't let the location fool you, tucked around the corner of a strip mall this amazing restaurant is a hidden gem! Mouthwatering small plates, delicious mock & cocktails, and attentive service. We had a leisurely dinner filled with great dishes and a warm atmosphere! Will be back soon.
