Moretti's. - Dublin

The food at this restaurant is unabashedly rich, the portions are huge and my friend and I left the place wanting to make out with the chef.<br/ <br/ This is a small joint with a decent sized bar and really dull lights the reason I gave 4.5 instead of 5). The place has about 10-15 tables and it was packed on a Tuesday evening.<br/ <br/ We split an eggplant starter and pasta primevera in white sauce with spinach noodles they have that substitute for egg noodles in all their dishes), with a side of their salad. <br/ <br/ The eggplant came first, which was 2 pieces of eggplant in red sauce, cheese and mushrooms. This was followed by the noodle salad in balsamic, which was served in two different plates because they actually understand the meaning of 'split '. Both the dishes were fingerlicking good and we were too full for the pasta.<br/ <br/ But then the pasta came in two plates again) with all it 's caramelized vegetables and the fragrance and we HAD to dig in. We were literally struggling to breathe but just couldn 't stop from taking another bite and sit there in our foodgasms. There was no way we were gonna finish that pasta and ended up boxing it. <br/ <br/ It cost us less than $40 and I 'll be going back fosho!

First, the service is OK. Let's be honest though, the only person I want to be amazing at their job is the cook. Our waitress was good, not great, but helpful, attentive and just a little rough around the edges. The way it ought to be at an Italian eatery. <br/ <br/ I had the seafood and sausage dish. Amazing! The sausage was the perfect spicy. Lots of shrimp. My only complaint? So much food I had to take it home as leftovers. <br/ <br/ I grew up in a city known for its Italian food and this was some of the best I've eaten. Do t judge a book by its cover.

THE best crab cakes I've ever eaten, including in Boston. Great homemade pasta too.

This place is amazing! Its expensive, but everything's homemade and so delicious. So worth it!

Delicious, BUT not great for a vegetarian. The food here is amazing. I mean really, everything that I have eaten here has been completely delicious. The problem arose last time I visited and was informed that their red sauce (which goes on the eggplant parm and other 'vegetarian ' dishes) is cooked with the meatballs. So basically, the only option that a true vegetarian has is to eat the alfredo sauce. The alfredo sauce is delicious, but since I 'm not interested in super high calorie dishes, I don 't have any good options at Moretti 's. If you are a meat eater or are a vegetarian who doesn 't mind sauce cooked with meat, then go check this place out and be ready for a delicious meal!
