When in season, a truffle special menu is also available, featuring beef carpaccio, risotto, tagliolini and ribeye, all seasoned with generous shavings of truffle.

If you are wondering what ricotta mustia is, it’s a lightly smoked sheep ricotta from Sardinia… such a delicacy! Have you ever tasted it? It pairs so well with aubergines!

Dear friends, the time has come....
It is with humble gratitude and a heavy heart that we announce the closing of Mora Restaurant.

Our last service will be Saturday 22nd June.

We know this is a bit of a shocking and unexpected news, and believe us, this has been a very difficult and emotional decision, which was not taken lightly.

From the very beginning, our goal was to create more than just a restaurant, and we achieved that: Mora has become an extension of our home, where staff and customers became our friends, if not family. Thank you for supporting us all this time!

There are still a few weeks before the shutters come down on the 23rd June, and until then we are open as usual: Monday to Thursday from 5 to 10pm, Friday and Saturday from 12 to 10.30pm.

We hope you’ll make the most of it and come and enjoy our good food and wine, and most of all say goodbye, whilst you can.

We love the new label on the bottle of limoncello with its truly Sardinian design.

Have a sip of this wonderful limoncello and get transported to the Sardinian sun with its intense perfume and citrusy taste.

Much needed in a gloomy day like this!

If you're new to the art of Italian wine, or if you've been around for a while and have simply always wondered about these little letters, we're here to explain these mysterious terms.

Thank you so much for the incredible review! We hope to see you again soon!
