Fratelli Mori is an upgrade on the neighborhood osteria, but still rustic with wooden, family-style tables, an open kitchen and pantry, and Roman poetry calligraphed all over its walls. This is Roman dining at its best: simple, but not rough around the edges, with quality dishes made with love. Whether you're looking to host a family reunion or get a crew of old friends back together, this is the place.

I fratelli Alessandro e Francesco Mori rappresentano una solida realtà della ristorazione romana e vengono accompagnati in cucina dallo chef David d’Angeli. Lo spaghettone alla carbonara parte dalla pasta Cocco che viene lessata al dente e mantecata in padella con il grasso del guanciale e poca acqua. Appena la pasta inizia a rilasciare il proprio amido viene aggiunto il guanciale (della selezione Dol) tagliato in striscioline sottili non particolarmente tostate, l’ uovo intero e il Pecorino Romano Dop di Cibaria fino a raggiungere la giusta densità.

Osteria Fratelli Mori: Family operated (and overseen by brothers Alessandro and Francesco, and their mother Giuliana), Osteria Fratelli Mori is a throwback to less precious times, an era when one person used to cook for the entire family on Sunday. Such tradition is carried on here in a large space that can cater for about 120 people. As the name and ethos imply, there are no frills here – there are rural, family-style tables, an open kitchen, fun people and seriously good food of the pasta and pizza variety.

This restaurant is named after the Mori family, composed of Giuliana and her sons Alessandro and Francesco, who oversee the day-to-day operations. The spot is every bit as rustic and simple as a traditional osteria, with its family-sized tables and open kitchen, and the menu is composed of no-fuss Roman fare that is executed to perfection. Some of the dishes at Fratelli Mori not to miss are the Neapolitan-style woodfire pizza, Gricia with artichokes, and the classic meatballs.

Osteria Fratelli Mori is named for Alessandro and Francesco Mori, two brothers with a love for cooking, who serve honest, Roman fare in a relaxed environment. The menu isn’t exactly surprising but everything is executed to perfection, from the fritti to the desserts. You’ll find Roman classics like meatballs and a Gricia with artichokes, plus woodfire pizzas that are a cross between Roman and Neapolitan style.

Osteria Fratelli Mori is located on Via dei Conciatori 10, footsteps from the Piramide Cestia. The restaurant is captained by Alessandro and Francesco Mori and their mother, Giuliana. Together, they bring the same passion and respect for quality that led their father, Ambrogio, to open the osteria back in 2004.

Trecca and Osteria Fratelli Mori are also both in Testaccio, and newest of all (opened November 2023), Casa Sceppa, a 10-minute walk from St. Peter’s Basilica.
