I love Mora. Everything I have had has been delicious. Service is great. Easy to get on a reservation list, whi h i suggest for busy nights and weekends. The menu is all good. I haven't had everything, but everything is worth trying. I've not been disappointed yet. Price is typical for an upscale, trendy place to eat. The atmosphere is hip and fun. There is no need to dress up, but it may feel better if you do. This is great for birthdays and girls' night out. Full bar and bar seating. The only sad part is that the menu has seasonal items, and you can only get things at certain times. So when you come back, sometimes, the menu may be different, and that one thing you were hoping for is not there and out of season.

Omg! Felt so guilty to have so much food to eat. Outstanding for value. We had the "Chef sample menu" ( I think that's what they called it). Scott Conant ( judge from Chopped) did an incredible job as usual. His staff was amazing and service was outstanding. Unfortunately, we are always sitting at a small table next to a large group. ( This has happened more than once). It was very noisy after they had a few drinks. Table was too small to have 3 dishes served at one time but it was an incredible experience, nevertheless.
Remember, if you order this menu, take small bites of everything or you will get full fast. We took home 10 different servings as left overs and had 2 extra meals ( for 2)out of it. Tip your waiter generously because he will spend 3 hours just on your table. That's how long it took for dinner with a 5:15pm dinner reservation on a Saturday. It was worth it for sure! Thank you Scott for bring back this chef sample menu!

1st time dining, and we had a great experience. Beautiful interior should be lead photo on Open Table. Probably would have been in sooner. Lost our go to Tomaso's last month and needed a replacement. Definitely give it a try. Great food and service.

This is a very nice place with a modern elegance type of atmosphere. I've been here on a few occasions and each time was pleasant. I recently tried their mocktails which were very good. I had the "kiwi to my heart" and "tropic like its hot" mocktails, both of which I'd recommend. I recently tried their Pasta Al Pomodoro which was delicious

So freakin delish and great looking. As soon as you walk in, you know something good is going to happen in your mouth. Our waiter, Justin, couldn't have been more enthusiastic and genuine about his love for the food and working at Mora. Always a plus. We were they for Happy Hour (Rush Hour) and the menu was different with much to choose from. The Blood Orange Spritz was tasty and refreshing on a very hot summer day. Meatballs excellent and plentiful. Shrimp were sitting in a pool of fantastic dipping sauce, the margarita pizza with ball of burrada outstanding. To top it off, Justin sent us home with a budino dessert to go that looks great too. I can't wait to go back for dinner! Well done Scott Conant!

Amazing food. The rigatoni had great flavor and was very cheesy. The filet had a nice crust and was extremely juicy. Our server was very attentive and provided us great recommendations for wine and food. The kitchen is open to the dining room so you can see how the food is being made and know that it’s fresh and made from scratch.

Fantastic service and delicious food. It was everything we were looking forward to. We definitely recommend and will be returning in the future.

First time at this wonderful restaurant. Met some friends who recommended it to us and Mora did not disappoint.
Great Italian cuisine. Plenty of menu options on the menu to choose from.
Love the ambience which is lively and fun.
Can't wait to check out happy hour.

Delicious food, impeccable service. I ordered a "What's in the box" drink and loved the presentation. It was tasty and unique.

From the trendy and hip artwork and people to the flavor and art of the wonderful food, Mora will not disappoint. Wife and I ate there last night and had a great experience doing the tasting menu . Just like their other restaurant, Americano way tooooooo much food!!!! But if you can take leftovers home with you do it! If you are visiting I might not do the tasting menu unless you have a fridge in your hotel room . Will come back but order off the menu instead so I can finish the food - can’t wait to try other things

Our scheduling was tight as we were on our way to the Billy Joel concert. Our server made sure everything moved along so we were on our way on time. Service was excellent, atmosphere was awesome and the food & cocktails divine - we had the pork chop and branzino - bith delicious. We would definitely go back.
David Watson
Pricey, but top notch service and food. We had bar seating sans reservations, seats weren't cozy but not uncomfortable, good wine pour. We got the last day of restaurant week, so not the traditional menu. Perfectly cooked salmon, a good fried half chicken (but boneless!), Stromboli to start and nice chocolatey dessert. We'll have to return for the regular menu.

We went to Mora Italian restaurant for a birthday celebration. When you walk inside, you will notice an open air kitchen concept with barstools as well as a vibrant dining room atmosphere and a covered outdoor patio area and bar with TVS. This place feels a lot bigger in person than in the photos. I recommend the bread/spread sampler to start given its variety for the table. We ordered frutti de mare pizza, pasta Al pomodoro, and Tagliatelle. All 3 of these were fantastic, but the Tagliatelle was definitely my favorite given the texture/flavor combo.
All of the pasta/pizza taste authentic and you can tell that it’s all made in this restaurant. Paired with nice Italian wine, Mora is fantastic for date night or celebrations. Highly recommend this place for those wanting a fun experience!

Food was good but nothing really special! We had a reservation for 7.30, arrived on time but had a bit of an issue to be acknowledged at first. We were finally escorted to the table and the restaurant looks great, beautiful decor and nice atmosphere. After seating, we waited around 20 minutes to have our drinks order taken. After that, all of us being there for the first time, a very rushed explanation of the menu was given and the staff rather indifferent took our order and awkwardly made jokes that left the table quite uncomfortable. The food was served on point, in a timely manner but honestly it was difficult to move pass the first impression. I would not really recommend mostly because the service as the food was good but not outstanding as advertised especially for the price charged.

Just had one of the worst experiences at what seemed like an amazing place. I did like the decor and atmosphere. Sat at the bar and was greeted and ordered a beer. Was very confused why the San tan October fest was served in a 12 oz goblet instead of a pint glass. Then when I finished my drink, not one of the bartenders even looked at me for over 30 mins to see if I wanted a second drink. Everyone else at the bar was getting attention except for me and my fiend. Had to ask the bus boy for a glass of water. Good thing is that it only took them under a minute to collect my money. Won’t be coming back to this place again. Had high hopes a good evening that was ruined by extremely poor customer service. Such a shame.

My husband took me here for my birthday tonight. It was the best food I’ve had by far in a very long time. The service was amazing, the atmosphere was classy and relaxed. And the food was beyond delicious. The diver scallops were seared to perfection and the roasted garlic cloves gave the dish the added yum factor. My husband had the ricotta and marscapone gnudi. Silky smooth and just enough. We will definitely be going back. This is a must try restaurant.

I went with my daughter and son-in-law on my birthday in August. I ordered the Pasta de pomadoro. I had been wanting to try it since I watched Ted Allen go to Scott Conant's restaurant and order it on one of the Food Network shows a few years ago. It was definitely worth the wait. Wonderful food, atmosphere great, and staff very attentive. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys Italian food.

I recently took east coast friends to Mora. We arrived for happy hour and had one of the best bartenders EVER. Happy hour prices are so reasonable, I thought I was in another decade. Dinner was to die for and one of my guests made the comment that he had the best fettuccine he'd ever had. I'm not even going to comment on the bread or the dessert because there are no words. There was ample wait staff and we had more than one person checking on us.
We sat outside on the patio. While it was very nice and we enjoyed it, 7th Street was noisy and it was hard to ignore the traffic. That was the only drawback.
Exceptionally clean restrooms.
We will be back, no doubt. After I lose the four pounds I gained last night. :)

Words can't describe how much my friends and I loved the food, ambiance, and service at Mora! It was by far the best food we had while visiting the Phoenix area from Seattle. Three of us shared the lobster gnudi, diver scallops, truffle asparagus, and a fluffy apple cake. It was all so well executed and delicious! Thank you for a meal to remember! We will definitely be back!

We first tried Mora when it opened last year and loved it so we decided to bring our friends for a celebration and we were very disappointed. The service was terrible! It took forever to get someone even to come to our table and every time he did come to the table he was not attentive. We poured our own wine and had to push our appetizer plates to the side when our main dishes came. The food was not much better. My seafood dish was completely under seasoned and the meals that we added protein to were on side plates and over cooked. So sad it was such a bad experience we had such high expectations.
Laura Lukens
The food was amazing. I wasn't happy with the seating. We were put at a 2 top in between other people so it didn't make for a nice anniversary experience. Our server Jeff was great!!!
Terry Kurth Reimink
An excellent meal and service was out of sight. Thank you so much for a wonderful birthday meal. Loved all of it.

My antipasti dish (meatballs) vegetable sides (Cauliflower)and my dessert( warm chocolate cake )were all outstanding.I was not so impressed with my black pasta (squid ink) with clams, very salty
