“Best Italian restaurant in Miami“

“I first had the pleasure of dining here nearly two years ago, and it instantly became one of my favorite restaurants. From the warm atmosphere to the unforgettable flavors, everything about the experience was exceptional. The plate of pasta I had on that first visit was so memorable, it’s still the background on my phone — and I’ve made multiple trips to Miami just to come back and enjoy it again. The quality has never wavered. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.“

“I've been to this Italian restaurant before, and it never disappoints! This visit was just as fantastic as the last. We were lucky to have Michell (hope I'm spelling that right!) as our server. Even though she mentioned she recently started working at the restaurant, you'd never know it—her service was phenomenal, and her recommendations were spot on. Big thanks to Michell and the whole team for making it a special night.“

“I had a fantastic experience last night! The service is top tier--Marco and the rest of the staff are kind, knowledgeable, and attentive. I had the best beef carpaccio ever--try it, they put a unique spin on the traditional dish--followed by the baby artichoke hearts and accompanied by an amazing Swiss Pinot Noir from Lucas Madonia. One of the best dinners I've had in a while and I'm frequently out. Highly recommend this quirky and cool restaurant!“

“Melania amazing server, she recommended the most amazing pasta for me and my girlfriend loved.“

“Boia De is very special. Bold flavor with a delicate execution. The staff are humbly proud of their accomplishments and the Michelin Star is well deserved. The smoked muscles were delicious you need them. Steak tar-tar you must have. The gnocchi will change your life and the lamb could alter they ways of man & possibly change the world. No liquor needed here. Creative mixology with sake & Pilsner will make you happy. Desert a must… buy 2. Or 3.. Love from Mary & Peter“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“This was our first time here, the atmosphere and ambience was spectacular. We had the pizza and it’s definitely one of the best in Miami. Anise was out waitresses ans she was very kind & provided great service. We will definitely be back!“

“Absolutely delicious. Tried the chefs tasting menu and it was an amazing culinary experience. Best polenta I have ever had, and dbranding was perfection. Cheers to amazing food provided with exceptional service with Sean. Seriously you can’t go wrong. What are you waiting for? Go eat!! Buon appetito!“

“I had an incredible experience here! The gluten-free pizza was absolutely delicious—one of the best I’ve had. The service was outstanding, and Lenka truly went above and beyond to make the evening memorable. Her attention to detail, friendliness, and professionalism were exceptional. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and amazing service!“

“I had heard about this hot restaurant from New York that I must try, but was reticent to do so because Carbone was the name of a character from Goodfellas that Robert Deniro's Jimmy Conway whacked when tying up loose ends after the Lufthansa job! Poor sap was hanging frozen in a meat locker. I'm glad I put that imagery aside because this place was amazing! Platitudes like wonderful ambience, fine service, flavorful food, great family style dining, are all applicable but just don't capture the full spirit of the evening. From the pickled cauliflower, to the signature spicy rigatoni ala vodka (which pairs nicely with their pinot noir offering Presqu'ile), to the Caesar salad (you must have those croutons!), and their delicious Italian petit-fours, everything burst with flavor and was resplendent of the authenticity of old Venice. And since you will be spending more than a few pennies here, one must luxuriate in the mid century environs replete with Murano glass chandeliers while being serenaded with a sound track of Italian crooners like Mel Torme and Frank Sinatra in the full bela canta tradition. If you have a special occasion, Carbones Miami Beach will make for a memorable evening.“

“Great spot on Ocean Drive! Excellent service, friendly staff, and perfect for people-watching. Prices are reasonable — you can get a decent bottle of wine starting at $40. Overall, a relaxed vibe with good food and great atmosphere. Ceviche, spaghetti alla vongole are delicious. Good cocktails, too.“

“This restaurant is a gem in the heart of Coral Gables. 5 stars is not enough for this restaurant. 💗
All the people who works there are wonderful Everything I ate was an explosion of flavors.
I don't usually drink alcohol, but I convinced myself to have a cocktail (I told them I didn't want to taste too much alcohol). They really impressed me.
I want to especially thank Adri and her husband; they were attentive from start to finish.
P.S. Their baby is the happiest and most delicious baby I've ever met.“

“We had the coconut shrimp and buffalo wings as appetizers. They were excellent. The shrimp came with a lovely sweet and spicy dipping sauce that was not overly sweet or spicy, just perfect. The wings were crispy and the buffalo sauce and ranch were flavorful. Each app came with a serving of 8 pieces each. I had the linguine Frutti Di Mare and it was incredibly flavorful and full of seafood. The sauce is silky and delicious. He had the Chicken Parmesan and it was delicious. The spaghetti and sauce were excellent, the chicken was a large piece that was cooked to perfection. This was our second time going and we ordered the same thing both times and it was excellent each time. Melissa, the manager was wonderful. The portions were large and there was a live saxophonist which made for a very romantic evening. Highly recommend!!“

“I had an amazing experience at this restaurant.
From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure everything was perfect throughout our visit.

The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor.
I especially loved the mussels, fiori di zucca, octopus and gnocchis, which were perfectly cooked and bursting with taste.
You can tell they use fresh, high-quality ingredients.

The ambiance was cozy yet elegant, and the music and lighting created a very relaxing vibe.
It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy a nice dinner with friends, family, or even on a date night.

Our server was Misael. Best service ever!! He even did a Mariachi show for us!! AMAZING!

I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to everyone I know.
If you’re looking for great food, great service, and a great atmosphere — this is the place to go!“

Will return again on my next visit to Miami Beach.“
