50 Best Italian Restaurants near Bay Harbor Islands

“Wonderful and fresh food, great atmosphere and very professional crew“

“1st time to Boynton Beach new location today. Outstanding burrata salad (arugula, tomato, prosciutto) and thin and perfect crust, cheese pizza. Paulina, our server, was delightful.Lots of pizza and salad options. Nice wine list, but doing dry January, so had to pass it up! I’m looking forward to returning….could do this once a week!“

“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 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.“

“Best Italian restaurant in Miami“

“I think they're all great“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“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“

“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.“

“We found this place walking around and Agata was our server. She is so friendly and nice person, she was the reason we stayed more and ordered more drinks and definitely we will come back just to get amazing service from her. Nice music and atmosphere from this place ?“

“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!“

“We went early so not many people in the restaurant but soon got nicely busy. Staff were great and friendly. Service was brilliant and the food was excellent. We had the pasta dishes which I believe were all home made. Really great experience.“

“Our experience was absolutely incredible — everything was a 10. We shared the Lemoni and the Filet with the table, and it truly felt like culinary heaven. It was my birthday, and this marks the third time I've celebrated at one of Chef Giorgio's restaurants. He and his team never disappoint. My all-time favorite dessert is the pistachio semifreddo, and as always, it was AMAZING. Huge thanks to the entire Luca crew for making my birthday so special — and delicious!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ very good place!!!!“

“The place is elegant and relaxed. The service is good and pleasant. The food was quite good. However, the negative part was that they served 2 dishes to a table of 6 and 25 minutes later the other 4 dishes, even though they apologized for a place of this level, this is intolerable. The price is quite high.“

“The service was great and the food was delicious!“

“what a great restaurant great service, very friendly and professional. the food delicious, causy place for couple and groups“

“Very delicious food and the service team (especially Valentina) is very friendly and did a great job! We will come back ☺️“

“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!!“

“Unbelievably great food and service My Wife hosted my 70-birthday dinner at Capriccio's and all I can say was it was one of the most enjoyable dinner experiences I have had in a very long time. Capriccio’s is a warm, friendly place, with fabulous food and an unsurpassed wait staff, led by William. Having my family and friends celebrate this occasion with me will be a wonderful memory. Everyone attending could not stop raving about the food. Needless to say, Capriccio’s has some new customers!“

“3/17/24 8:45:54 PM Today I was introduced to a hidden gem in Sunny Isles-ART PRIORI RESTAURANT…I was taken by a friend Elina, who is familiar with one of the owners family. We were seated quickly by the hostess. We were able to sit in the open air patio area which was great especially on a beautiful day. We were brought water and fresh bread very quickly. The menu is multi-european in its choices. We ordered several delicious appetizers, I especially loved the Tuna Tartar which was creatively presented and served atop of an avocado base-I thoughly enjoyed the combination…my friend’s favorite was the Beef Tartar and we ordered a creatively composed salad of mixed green, fresh sweet pears, feta in a light dressing-it was perfect. I appears the menu continues to evolve from what I’ve read. Our bill did not include an automatic gratuity. The décor eclectic, polished yet inviting… The owner is clearly an art lover…its evident in the décor and the artful food presentation. The prices are in the average range for this area. Our service was excellent, very accommodating yet not hovering. Easy parking right outside their entrance. All in all a delightful afternoon. I’ll be returning and I recommend.“

“The food, service and ambiance get five stars. Everyone smiles and are on top of everything. Juan our server was gracious and attentive. I have been here several times and will keep on coming because of the attention to detail that is lacking in many restaurants in Miami. Thank you for another amazing experience.“
