   We've eaten here a few times and think the food is great even though pricey for the area. Our usual place to eat for Thanksgiving was booked so we decided to try Morettis. Our reservation was for 1p. Why we had to make one I don't know cuz they weren't crowded. Upon sitting down we were promptly told out of pumpkin pie! HOW? This was a TG meal and at no time was a basket of warm bread sent to the table...or even dinner rolls when the meal came! MInd you this was over $27 PP. Food arrived fast and hot. More than enough turkey even had some dark meat. Nice and tender! Mashed potatoes and gravy were good. The Sweet mashed could've used some flair...some butter, cinnamon or even brown sugar sprinkled on it. Flavor was basic but ok. The veggies were decent. The cranberry sauce was good. Meal shouldve been $18. PP What brought this meal down was the atrocious "stuffing". Stove Top is 10x better than what they tried passing off as stuffing. It was basically, thick soppy, saggy white bread covered in what tasted like chicken bone broth, This was GARBAGE. We even told the waiter that while everything else tasted good, the stuffing is beyond horrible. He said he would say something. Well...I guess things have changed over the years because at no time did a manager come over to our table to speak with us and try to make it right. What happened to the old days if something was really bad, you would get comped a dessert, a drink, or something? And to add insult...they even tried to sneak in that almost $2 service fee which I told the waiter to remove and he did. On a scale of 1 -10 I have to give this very pricey, no rolls, horrible stuffing, no pumpkin pie at 1p (Which DEF' couldn't have sold out based on an almost empty restaurant)....along with no management coming to our table....as well as trying to charge us a fee for being a customer...a 5 While we'll be back for the other eats Im gonna watch for that service fee and never again eat a TG meal here

   Moretti's is new to the southside so I wanted to try it. I was not disappointed. The pizza was good. I rarely order spaghetti and meats balls and again I was not disappointed. My wife enjoyed her fettuccine alfredo. Good portions, good food and reasonable priced. I recommend Moretti's and will return to try more dishes!

   Slow service on drinks (water and pop). The food came out fine.

   Food and service were both terrific! It was our first time at this new location, and it had ample parking and the interior space was very large, yet the noise level was low.”, making it a nice dining experience.

   Nice to have a new local restaurant. Service was very good. It was busy at the time we went but the server will still attentive. Nice options and variety on the menu and the food came fast and was hot. We thought the food was very good but a little overpriced. Appreciated that the server comped one of the drinks when she realized she had forgotten to submit the order. What we didn't appreciate was the $4+ "service charge" that we had to ask to be removed from our bill. The explanation was that because of COVID, things have become more expensive. What??!!!! Just be forewarned about that service charge.

   Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re delighted you enjoyed the attentive service, menu variety, and quality of the food during your visit. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the server’s efforts to make things right with the comped drink. However, we’re sorry to hear about your frustration with the service charge. While it’s intended to help offset increased operating costs, we understand it can feel unexpected, and we’ll take your feedback into consideration. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to welcome you back soon!
