In Italian, the word osteria means a small often informal restaurant where the owner hosts guests rather than serving customers. Osteria Morini maintains this friendly atmosphere in its DC restaurant, which is located in the Navy Yards. The cuisine of choice here hails from Emilia-Romagna, the so-called “bread basket” of Italy, from which the world has received some of its favorite Italian staple flavors such as balsamic vinegar and prosciutto. In keeping with its osteria spirit, Osteria Morini has an open kitchen, meaning guests can enjoy watching their dishes come to life even before the meal begins. The restaurant has received high ratings from publications like The Washington Post and Washingtonian Magazine.
