Our story

With its flagship in Manhattan’s vibrant SoHo neighborhood, Osteria Morini now brings the soulful cuisine and convivial spirit of Emilia-Romagna in northern Italy to Roosevelt Field in Long Island. Emilia-Romagna is known as the Italian Breadbasket – the birthplace of some of the flavors and ingredients most commonly associated with Italian cuisine worldwide: prosciutto, mortadella, parmigiano, and balsamic vinegar.

In Italian, “osteria” means a place where the owner “hosts” guests. We look forward to hosting you, Long Island!
