Osteria Morini is an Italian restaurant located in the SoHo neighborhood of NYC. The restaurant has some good quality Italian food with fresh ingredients. They make their own pasta, and it tastes good.

Items Ordered

Restaurant week lunch menu

Cost:$24.07 for a 3 course lunch

Erbazzone Reggiano

Cost:The appetizer in the 3-course $24.07 lunch
spinach filled pastry, smoked ham, parmiganio

This appetizer was kind of like a spinach and cheese quiche. The pastry was soft and flaky. The filling had a nice flavor from the cheese.

Gramigna

Cost:The main in the 3-course $24.07 lunch
sausage ragu, parmigiano

The pasta was simple but delicious. The sausage in the sauce gave it a lot of flavor. The pasta was really fresh and delicious, and I loved the multi-colored pasta.

Italian Hot Chocolate

Cost:The dessert in the 3-course $24.07 lunch

The Italian hot chocolate was so thick it was like a warm chocolate pudding. It was small, but very rich.

Pollo Cacciatore

Cost:Another main in the 3-course $24.07 lunch
Chicken, tomato, mushroom, peppers, onion, pancetta

I was a bit disappointed in the chicken cacciatore. The dish seemed to have a lot of cheese in it, and that gave it a very heavy feel. The chicken was a mix of white and dark meat, and the way it was cut seemed unusual.

Stricchettoni

Cost:$17
Bow tie pasta, braised wild mushrooms

The Stricchettoni was a fairly plain fresh pasta served in a mushroom sauce. There were also a couple small pieces of tomatoes, but otherwise the dish was just pasta with mushrooms. It tasted pretty good, and mostly had the strong taste of wild mushrooms.
