Just another over-hyped/ good on the surface only Miami restaurant. For sure you’ll get excellent service in a classy and elegant atmosphere, but the food is at most just “good” or “ok” and not worth its high $100 pp cost average. Not planning on returning.

Incredibly disappointing. Small portions. Mediocre Italian food, Long wait time for food and high prices culminated in a ultra poor experience which is led me to the fact that I will not return to this restaurant after two visits of not enjoying it. spare yourself the overpriced bill, go elsewhere, there are plenty of better Italian restaurants in Miami.

Overpriced for what it offers. Hamachi crudo swimming in oil. Decor way overdone. Poor parking.
Fabulous experience all around. We stopped in for a drink at the bar hoping to also get a snack. The two hostesses were lovely and one of them walked us to the bar which was standing room only. We stood off to the side and that is when Alyssa walked up to us with cocktail menus and a warm, welcoming smile. Her hospitality was perfection and April behind the bar was equally great. She is a fantastic mixologist and a great host. These two ladies made our first time at Erba memorable and fun and just an all around great experience. The food was delicious and creative. We had the Cacio Pepe Pave - cheesy but light and peppery with a little bit of naughty. The Grilled Peach Panzanella was cool and refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. The Halibut was a superstar dish with lemon and mushrooms but light, allowing the fresh fish to shine. We are Chef Patel fans and know we will always be in for a culinary treat if he is at the helm but he outdid himself in finding two star team members that are the gold standard for a place as nice as Erba!!

Just too expensive, and I'm used to prices around the country. Eggplants for $17? Ugh. Great carpaccio. $40 for six agnolotti with 4 pieces of beef cheek? Obviously this chef understands he knows how to make money from overpriced dishes. Just too much; sorry, it was good, but not when you walk out for $150 per person with two glasses of wine and two cocktails.

The restaurant is beautiful I felt in Vegas The Food was amazing but the service was chaotic there seemed to have been a fire in the kitchen and the food delivery just halted it took hours to get service but in the end the manager and hostess and waiter made it up by not charging us for some wine and desert?Will repeat in a weekday with less people

We went for date night. Had the miami spice dinner. We loved the ambiance and feel of the restaurant. The service was good, all the staff was attentive. The food - Hamachi crudo was fresh and delicious Peach salad was good The picanha was superb. We wished there was more. The corn ravioli was nothing to write home about. I did not appreciate the watery sauce and the corn just comes on top. The tiramisu was delicious while the olive oil cake was just regular. Overall, we did like the experience. We would go back to try something else.
Our dinner at Erba was amazing! From the moment you enter till you leave it is an experience The place is gorgeous, impeccably clean with an excellent , friendly wait staff Our dinner was delicious. Food was prepared and presented so well We had the Miami spice menu with wine pairings which is an excellent value. We are so lucky to have this restaurant in Miami. We will return

Delicious food, loved the flavors. Beautiful space. Could have a conversation with the people across the table without shouting. Excellent service. Enjoyed the Miami Spice dinner, especially the hamachi crude and the olive oil cake.

"Florentine-inspired Ambiance Misses the Mark". My experience was marred by several unfortunate choices that detracted from the restaurant's otherwise charming atmosphere. Upon arriving, I found the noise level not merely "energetic," but overwhelmingly loud, which clashed with the restaurant's intended theme. The choice of 70s rock and roll music was jarring, lacking any connection to the carefully cultivated esthetics of the establishment. Adding to my disappointment was the lighting situation, which I found to be utterly inadequate. The dim atmosphere made it impossible to read the menu, forcing me to resort to using my iPhone's light. Even the small lamp provided on our table failed to emit enough light to enhance the setting. One redeeming aspect of my visit was the service. Our waitress was pleasant and attentive, providing a welcoming presence throughout our meal. Despite the restaurant's beautiful decor and attentive staff, the atmosphere felt disjointed due to the loud music and poor lighting choices. I truly hope the management considers making adjustments, as this establishment has immense potential to offer an exceptional dining experience.

The food was delicious. Love the ambience. Super cool place. I loved the candle butter great idea. The drinks also were delicious and the food was great. The waiter was also super nice. Will be back for sure.

Loved Chef Niven Patel's last restaurant Orno, but I think Erba is even better. The service was excellent start to finish- they were behind on tables as the place was packed- and they graciously got us a round of drinks while we waited. Details like that matter. Food was fantastic, all executed beautifully- we did the Miami Spice dinner, all the dishes were great. The pastry chef is to be commended. I am not a dessert person usually but loved every bite of the tiramisu & olive oil cake.
