50 Best Italian Restaurants near Key Biscayne

“Luissell and her team were absolutely PERFECT for our rehearsal dinner. We got married at the Ritz in Key Biscayne, after a COVID-canceled Amalfi Coast wedding. We wanted a casual and friendly trattoria feel for our rehearsal dinner, similar to the welcome pizza party we had planned in Ravello. Luissell delivered. She helped set up all of the decorations without hesitation. In fact, when I arrived to deliver them 3 days before our wedding, my maid of honor had just tested positive for covid and couldn’t attend our wedding. Luissell was patient and kind to me. The food, service and ambiance at our rehearsal dinner was exceptional and exceeded every expectation. Luissell and her staff went above and beyond to make my husband and I, our 80+ year old parents and all of our guests feel special. The chef is a culinary genius. The staff is well trained and very good at their craft. The food, pizza, wine and price point is perfectly on point. Portions are huge and delicious. And the warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere is something that I still go back to as often as I can. Don’t underestimate the magic of this corner spot!“

“The best daily option for: fantastic Mediterranean menù with daily special, great atmosphere and efficient service with attention to any detail. I highly recommend “Costa Med Bistro”!“

“This was our favorite restaurant in Key Biscayne. The owners are incredible. The food is top notch and influenced from Northern Italy. I loved the chicken parmigiana. However, believe it or not my favorite item was the key lime pie. I ate probably 20 pieces of key lime all through the Keys and they simply had the best.“

“This was our first time in FULANO and we were pleasantly surprised how good it was. The server Ms Rosario was great offered help and checked on us few times during our meal. I had ribeye and it was done to perfection to my liking. My wife had skirt stake and as well very tasty and soft. For sure we will be back when we on the island.“

“Recomiendo todo porque lo hacen muy rico todo sus platos“

“I wanted my wedding to be beautiful and perfect, so I went with this shop to inquire about lovely flowers that fitted for the occasion. Also, this shop has a big space to walk around and look for different pets to buy. It was very nice to visit here, and I was glad that I finally had my dreamed pet. Thank you!“

“Excelente todo. Atención rápida y cálida. Platos exquisitos . hoy probé dos menúes diferentes y fueron excelentes. Ademas buen precio“

“We tried the TD Experience pop up and everything was spectacular! The wines & flavors took us right back to Italy and the service was top tier. This is such a hidden gem in Key Biscayne and we're so glad we found it. We will definitely go back very soon!“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“If you love thin crust pizza, this is your place! They bring creativity to pizza which I love. Can’t wait to taste each and every one! Would love to see cannoli’s offered with dessert coffees.“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“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 ?“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“Best salad … shrimp beets avocado OMG … 10 out of 10“

“Everything was great the pizza salad wine“

“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.“

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

“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!!“
