One of the best Italian restaurants in the entire city!! The food is fantastic and well-presented. All the staff were amiable and very detailed about the dishes with a boutique atmosphere. My favorite was vòngole, which was really really creamy, and the pasta was made very fresh. Love it!!! Bolonase was also delicious and juicy. The desert was so upscale that we were amazed. If you look for something unique and sound, it’s in dishes. I’ll come back for pizza next time!! Thank you!

This place is okay. Not awesome, not terrible. Had a pasta dish (good) and a pizza (not so much) and drinks, of course. It's loud and cramped and honestly pushing the price envelope. Bill for 2 including tip was over $160.

1st time here. A local. Had a reservation at 8:00 arrived at 7:59….packed with people blocking the entrance…must have been 25 people waiting for a table. Very chaotic. No host present finally flagged someone down to ask where we check in. He pulled out his phone and asked me fpr my name told me to stand near the bathrooms and wait…after getting pushed by people trying to make their way to the bathroom…and 20 minutes later..the host cane back to us and asked for our name again….said he didnt have a table but 2 seats at the “pizza bar”. He said if we didnt want that we could continue to wait for a table….but had no idea how long it would be…we took the bar.After a really unwelcoming beginning we moved onto drinks and dinner. Drinks are great. Top notch curated cocktails. Our Italian Chopped salad was outstanding..full of meats, cheeses, lettuce, tomatoes, chickpeas and the dressing was spot on . Next was the Bucatini with Clams/Clam Sauce. It was amazing! The best and the pasta is delish! Full of clams too. This was the highlight of our experience. Lastly we had the Short Rib Pizza. What a BIG disappointment! The Sicilian Oven pizza is soooo much better. Our pizza was supposed to have short rib…several varieties of mushrooms and prosciutto de parma…none of which was on the pizza..and if they were..you couldnt see or taste them. Because of the pizza (and the unwelcoming welcome) ..? I couldn’t give this place more than an average rating. maybe we just ordered the wrong pizza who knowsUPDATE:read the reply from this business to my honest review and you will see for yourself why you would never want to step foot in this restaurant . Their insulting vulgar reply to my review has also been done to many other people who also gave honest reviews. STAY AWAY from this place.

Came here expecting good pizza based on reviews. What I didn't expect was the owner dropping the whole thing on the floor, trying to clean the dirt off it with a hand vacuum right in front of us and trying to serve it.Owner stank of alcohol and shame and clearly had urinated in his pants within the last few minutes. When I made it clear I was leaving he got on the floor and grabbed my pant leg and started sobbing. Weird way to run a business

Heritage is the kind of great vibe spot, you wish you had in your neighborhood, atmosphere, decor, is sublime. Service was outstanding and the back parking lot is very safe and convenient. We ordered a lot of food to sample as much as stomachs will allow. Starting with their red butter micro greens salad, outstandingly fresh and yummy. Followed by a wagyu beef, fontina, provolone, rice & pea’s, stuffed pepper, this was a show stopper. The pizza orders consisted of a special requested Vegan pizza, a Broccoli Rabbe and Sausage pizza and lastly the Squash blossom and cold burrata combo. All were excellent, the Rabbe and sausage was definitely on the salty side however. The final plates were two pasta entree’s: The bolognese (which has been touted as one of the best in the state) and the Vongole (pasta and clams). For me, both pastas were over cooked and were disappointing, while the bolognese tasted very good, I’m not a fan of pasta which comes out as soft noodles. The clam pasta was lacking any bright briny notes and therefore disappointed on two fronts, unfortunate way to end an otherwise great food night. Understand that the top of the Florida Italian pasta scene for me is Cafe Martorano’s and that’s a high bar, perfect pasta every time I’ve dined there.Vegetarian options: Chef can accommodate Vegan requestsParking: Convenient and safe parking lot in rear of restaurantWheelchair accessibility: Restaurant entrance on ground level and while accessible for a wheelchair, inside space is at a premium, so that may be challenging

Heritage has some of the best Italian food, let alone pizza around. It's my third time coming here, and I have yet to leave disappointed. The meatballs, italian chopped salad, the Soppressata, and the Brooklyn pizza leave me drooling. Don't sleep on the meatballs, they're a hit. The Soppressata pizza is topped with hot honey and packs a punch. The classic Brooklyn with cupping pepperoni is pure nostalgia. And if you like bananas, I can't recommend the Banana Boudrino enough.All around the food is fresh, delicious, and balanced. The atmosphere is moody and enjoyable. And the service was the best I've had in years. Our waiter, Paul, made the evening for me. His recommendations were insightful, and his responses were classy and quick-witted. Paul turned our meal into a memorable experience. I would recommend Heritage and Paul to any food snob looking for a good time.Parking: Paid parking lot, more spots earlier than later, but circulation happens frequently.

Found them via Michelin recommendations. Great atmosphere and really the best Italian food we have eaten on our trip in Florida so far. The service was a hit and miss- one guy who served us initially was too lazy to work and chatting with the owner chef. The other guy then served us and was great. I highly recommend this place for

I was in Miami on a getaway trip and I decided to drive up to have dinner here after hearing about it on the MJ (Mussolini Junior) Morning Show in Tampa. I ordered the New York pie and the kale salad. The ingredients were all very fresh and bursting with flavor! I will definitely come back the next time I'm in town, which will be soon because bikini season is coming up. I brought home some kale in a doggy bag for my two gerbils Pretzel and Skippy. They both give it a thumbs up!The staff was able accommodate my needs because i'm a Little Person. I'm a concealed carry owner, so I didn't get to venture near the bar area.Hopefully I get to see the handsome owner next time!
