Mora Italian
Audio By Carbonatix
Celebrity chef Scott Conant and his culinary team have announced a reopening date for the progressive Italian restaurant in the Seventh Street dining corridor, Mora Italian. It’ll happen next Friday, April 9.
The restaurant temporarily closed in summer 2020. It’s since gone through some redesigns, and Chef Conant himself took over and put some focus on what is now Mora’s sister restaurant, The Americano. But this month, the spotlight is back on Mora.
“Guests can expect the same level of soulful deliciousness that has made Mora a neighborhood favorite, but they will also experience some new dishes I’ve been working on, especially from the wood-burning oven such as the roasted branzino,” Conant says in a press release. “We’ve streamlined the menu and really honed in on what makes Mora a special dining destination in Phoenix that’s casual and convivial.”
Some of those new dishes include the Roasted Branzino Alla “Livornese,” the Wood Fired Porchetta Spice Chop, Black Gemelli, and stuffed sweet peppers.
