Mora Restaurant in Waltham Forest

My wife, Angela, and I visited this lovely eatery along Station Road in North Chingford last Wednesday evening. We were met with Silvo's and Orazio's customary warmth and shown to our table. The decor remains unchanged: romantic lighting with delightful prints of Italian locations on the walls. The background music was brilliant and set at the right decibel level. Armed with a perfectly concocted Aperol Spritz, and to the accompaniment of polite chatter and laughter from the diners already there, we made our selection from a wide-ranging menu, especially when you include their specials' board. Angela went for the Avocado Crab and Prawns followed by the Saltimbocca; I chose the Prusciutto e Melone and also followed it by the Saltimbocca: all the meals were fresh and perfectly prepared in taste and texture. This culinary perfection was baptised with a brilliant Primitivo: an Italian red with a hint of sweetness, which complemented our meal admirably. We then found room for dessert: the wonderful Alfredo concoction that had Angela drooling, and I demolished the Apple Tart drizzled with Amaretto - delicious! We concluded the gastronomic extravaganza with lemon tea, black Americano, and black Sambucas. Plus, we had complimentary drinks from our gracious host - grazie mille and muito obrigado, Silvo. What makes this place so special is the genuine warmth and friendship from all there, where you can feel right at home and bask in the ambience of great food, chat, and laughter. Our compliments to the chefs for their artistry. Until the next time, have a great Easter, keep happy, and be safe. Ciao.

Permanently closed unfortunately. A sad farewell but it was always a comfortable and friendly place to relax at lunchtime.

Ayant vu ce restaurant avec de bons avis sur Internet, nous avons franchi la porte avec enthousiasme, et nous avons été franchement déçu. Rien de mauvais gustativement parlant, mais rien d'extraordinaire. Par contre, nous avons été servi par un homme absolument pas accueillant et professionnel. Je ne recommande pas.

Ce restaurant tout simple face à la station de Métro de Harrow on Hills sert un fish and chips de qualité ainsi que du poissons grillé. Nous y sommes allés pour un déjeuner d'affaires sur la recommandation d'un résident local et nous y retournerons ...

Updated April 2025 Despite all the gentrification that is currently taken place in this area. This remains the most authentic Italian restaurant. Great tasting food, fresh produce and always friendly atmosphere. This is the one of those places where you can relax, eat and sip your wine all evening. Really glad that this restaurant is still here. Small but very friendly. Great authentic Italian food, the best I've tried so far. So glad that this restaurant is still open and popular after the pandemic. Still as cozy and friendly as ever. Great food. This place never fails to impress you. after so many years, the quality and taste of the food and the friendliness of service is second to none. It is a restaurant where you can sit, eat and drink for hours without feeling rushed. Such a relaxed and cosy place to dine for the whole family.
