Osteria Morini

New York restaurateur Michael White's first foray into the D.C. market . The restaurant boasts waterfront views , homemade pastas and elegant Italian dishes , as well as a selection of amari drinks.

Excellent, Vibrant and fresh Italian Cuisine with a contemporary atmosphere and waterfront setting. Lunch two plate (antipasti-entree) special for 25 is worth the trip! Great wine selection !

Pastry chef Alex Levin has established the Navy Yard Italian haunt as the place to go for dessert . Charcuterie dishes and Italian cocktails are also worth exploring here. Read more

A 30-something mom wearing a BabyBjorn fits in as easily as the businessman sipping a cocktail . Floor-to-ceiling windows the waterfront , while more than a dozen homemade pastas make sharing a must. Read more

The White Label Burger , offered during lunch and brunch , includes dry-aged beef , Emmentaler, fennel and mustard aioli . Read more

They know how to work a grill here! So along with your pasta , get the Grigliata Mista : lamb chop , skirt steak , sausage , pancetta , and marinated peppers .

This place is truly a delight! Homemade pasta , excellent cheese patters, and amazing view . Gnocchi here is far the best choice on the menu.

The Bitches say: B+. Osteria Morini is a classic, hearty Italian spot in an upscale environment. It’s perfect for family parties or a date on the waterfront . Don’t miss the Burrata and the Battilardo! Read more

Loved the pasta ! A relative ordered the ribeye which didn't live up to expectations however.

I love the two course salad and pasta pairing for lunch by the river . Great escape from the work day! (The panzanella is amazing.)

A seriously worthy place to splurge on carbs. Bread is amaze. Meatballs are moist and tender. Pasta is extremely fresh. Parmigiano Gelato = I've died and gone to heaven.

Brunch was unbelievable! Great drinks eclipsed by the fabulous fare! Prosciutto panino, poached eggs , and ricotta pancakes were to die for! Be sure to have the roasted fingerling potatoes !!

Of course the pasta here is amazing. Get the Rigatoni : braised wild mushrooms , rosemary oil, parmigiano.

The pasta here is delicious. They have nice outdoor seating . I had an ice cream with espresso and a cookie dessert that was quite good.

The truffled ravioli was incredible and the burrata lived up to the hype

Bitches Who Brunch 's Best Bites 2016 winner for Best Cheese plate . The battilardo and burrata blew us away. Read more

Excellent pastas , you can’t go wrong! Also grab a cappuccino .

Everything, one of the best Italian meals I have ever had. Only downside is it's extremely expensive .

If you can make it to dessert , try the riso. Perfect blend of flavors, light, and a wonderful way to end the meal.

The squid ink pasta is spicy and amazing. You get bread here too, so light and fluffy!

Some of the best pasta I've ever had, and their chocolate molten cake dessert is incredible

pro tip: night owls take note -after 9pm pastas are half price.. xoxo

Pasta is always solid and made in house. They also have a decent wine list .

The tagliatelle is superb. Also, the bucatini if you're looking for a lighter dish. Guests are encouraged to share plates!

AMAZING pasta dishes. They are all phenomenal. Get your own, and then share another for dessert .

Morini Monday's. Great happy hour . The food here is excellent. Nice patio too!

The highlight here are definitely the homemade pastas . Crostini are delicious too especially the parmigiano "gelato ." Cocktails good but overpriced.

Order the arugula salad , grigliata mista and the squid ink pasta . Wine is overpriced here!

Try the Torba d'Oro (Golden Peat) - citrus & smoky Scotch perfectly balanced.

By all means, start off dinner with all 5 crostini !!! YUM!

The lighting in this place is stunning

Desserts are decadent! Decor is fresh. Service is great

Literally everything here is good. You can’t go wrong.

WONDERFUL cocktails - i definitely recommend the grogg!!

Great food and service. Mushroom pasta hit the spot

Family style . Great drinks too.

Love this place...the ravioli with truffle is crack.

our server was fantastic. views were great, food just ok

Brussel sprouts are amazing!!

A little disappointed. Wine by the glass on the high side, service was a little off, and menu online was not accurate and flavor weren't anything special. I felt like I was overpaying.

Amazing decor adapted to a former Navy lumber shed.

Pasta the best

Squid ink pasta

Food is fine, but brutally cold, unfriendly hostess who rushed us out b/c we 'didn't have a reservation .' Didn't know that was a crime these days.

Great food

Bucatini was excellent. Cappelletti was bland and boring.

Overpriced
