Osteria Mozza
“Chef Nancy Silverton's elevated Italian dining, with handmade pastas and wine.”
Osteria Mozza is an Italian restaurant in Georgetown bringing the elevated osteria dining tradition to the Georgetown dining community with the handmade pastas, the carefully selected wines, and the signature Italian dishes that the Georgetown diner uses for the special occasion dinner and the regular neighborhood Italian restaurant relationship. The osteria format, which occupies the middle register of the Italian restaurant hierarchy between the casual trattoria and the formal ristorante, provides the Georgetown dining context for the quality Italian cuisine in the convivial and the welcoming dining environment that the Georgetown professional and residential community uses for the dining occasion that calls for the quality Italian food without the formal restaurant’s strictness.
The handmade pasta program at Osteria Mozza reflects the Italian culinary tradition’s insistence on the pasta production from the fresh dough, the specific pasta form cut to the appropriate thickness and the shape for the specific sauce, and the cooking of the pasta to the precise point that the Italian kitchen’s al dente standard defines. The Georgetown diner who orders the handmade pasta at the Osteria Mozza has the pasta that the kitchen has produced the same day from the specific dough formulation that the pasta form and the sauce pairing requires.
The wine program at Osteria Mozza supports the Italian culinary tradition’s specific pairing of the regional wine with the regional cuisine: the pasta and the regional Italian wine that the Osteria Mozza selection provides give the Georgetown diner the integrated Italian dining experience that the wine and the food together create.
