The menu offered excellent choices. There were also some good specials for the day. I chose a soup that was a special for the day. I can’t remember exactly what it was called, but essentially it was a chicken broth base with veal meatballs and LOTS of parmesan cheese. I also detected a hint of lemon. The cheese made it appear to be like an egg-drop soup, but it was definitely cheese. The soup was very delicious and fitting given the weather.
For my main course, I ordered the risotto, which came mixed with a lamb ragu. I hadn’t had risotto in a while, and generally prefer my homemade version, but I couldn’t pass this up as it was with lamb! I wouldn’t make this at home unless I can learn to make that ragu. The risotto was perfectly cooked al dente, and the lamb ragu added a very unique flavor and texture profile. I’d order this again as it was hearty, filling and satisfied my craving for a lamb dish.
Il Moro is a place I’ll definitely go back to, maybe for happy hour sometime. The prices are generally moderate, but expect to pay about $50+ each if you order two courses and wine.
