50 Best Italian Restaurants near Key Biscayne

“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.“

“Delicious food. The grilled octopus was amazing!“

“This place was a wonderful hidden gem.
The food was fresh, delicious, and very reasonably priced. We had the tuna, salmon, & snapper crudo, beef empanada, Caesar salad, and the paccheri pasta w/ braised short rib. Juan insured we had excellent service as he was the host, Bartender, server, and food runner. We highly recommend this amazing quaint little place!“

“Wonderful place! We had lunch here on a Saturday evening and everything was perfect. The portions of the dishes were great for the prices, and just as tasty. Our server, Gisela, was very friendly and explained the menu of the day. The coffee was also just as good as the entrees. And the music was the cherry on top--tranquil italian jazz.“

“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!“

“The hard part is entrance. You go through a gate, to the end to a guest parking then enter the building and turn right then left. After a confusing entrance there is a very quiet restaurant with nice spacing, great for having conversations. Server was great and helpful with choosing appetizers, entrees and wine. Pasta was on-point and very balanced. All in all, a great place for both a romantic date or a business dinner. Will return.“

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

“Best Italian restaurant in Miami“

“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.“

“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.“

“Luca offered an explosion of flavors. The restaurant is small with outside seating. During the afternoon, the weather is enjoyable. They have outdoor fans. Located in the beautiful Giralda Ave. Coral Gables. The menu is varied and exquisite. For antipasti, we had pattate fritte, tuna caprese, and Stracciatella with black truffle honey. For our main course we had cacio e Pepe and short rib bolognese. Our desert was panna cotta. They also offer a wonderful menu of cocktails. We had 3 different Italian spritzes. My favorite was the Hugo. Everything was 5/5. Worthy trying, make reservations ahead of time!“

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

“Our orders were delicious and fresh. Will definitely visit again.“

“This place is amazing! I love the atmosphere and location. Our server, Claudia, was amazing as well. She helped us with the perfect selection of food for our taste buds and always greeted us with a smile. People, please ask for Claudia if you plan on visiting this restaurant. G“

“My two sisters and I went in on a Thursday at 6:15 with no reservations. We were warmly welcomed at the host stand and told they could seat us at the bar. We asked the host who seated us what his favorite dishes are and he recommended the creamy polenta appetizer and the pork chop. We were then greeted at the bar by Maria who was friendly and extremely helpful. She recommended a few wines and dishes and we settled on the polenta appetizer, a salad to share then we shared the spaghetti pomodoro, the mushroom pasta and the pork chop. Everything was truly delicious and we would definitely return.“

“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.“

“Decided to stop by here for early dinner happy hour. We had the pleasure of having Valentina as our server. Valentina super kinda , attentive and recommend seafood and land platter along with some mojitos . We’re from Los Angeles so Thank you Valentina for welcoming us!!

Gracias Valentina nos atendiste muy muy bien 10/10. Super amable.“

“Sapore Di Mare in Coconut Grove offers an enchanting dining experience that harmonizes exquisite cuisine with impeccable service and a warm, inviting ambiance. The evening began with a bottle of Montepulciano D'Abruzzo, Gran Sasso. This wine, with its rich, full-bodied flavor and subtle hints of dark fruit, set a perfect tone for the meal. For the main course, the Lasagna al Brasato di Short Ribs e Tartufo was an absolute delight. The layers of tender short ribs, perfectly cooked pasta, and a generous amount of truffle made every bite an orgasmic experience. This dish is a true testament to the chef's skill and creativity. The Ravioli di Ossobuco was another highlight. The ravioli, filled with succulent ossobuco, was served in a delicate sauce that complemented the richness of the filling. The balance of flavors and textures in this dish was impeccable. To conclude the meal, we indulged in the Pastiera Napoletana for dessert. This traditional Neapolitan cake, with its sweet and creamy ricotta filling, was the perfect ending to an exceptional dining experience. The service at Sapore Di Mare was outstanding. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring a memorable dining experience. The ambiance of the restaurant, with its elegant decor and cozy atmosphere, further enhanced the overall enjoyment of the evening. In summary, Sapore Di Mare in Coconut Grove is a must-visit for anyone seeking a top-tier Italian dining experience. From the exquisite food to the exceptional service and delightful ambiance, every aspect of the restaurant exceeds expectations.“

“Lunch at Bellini’s at Mr. C’s: An Italian Escape in Coconut Grove. Friday afternoon lunch for girlfriends to catch up. From the moment we arrived at Bellini’s, with a warm welcome from Beni and his staff, the restaurant’s elegant ambiance and breathtaking views of Biscayne Bay set the stage for an enjoyable afternoon. Service was impeccable—attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely warm. We were quickly seated and offered a selection of fine Italian wines. Choosing a crisp Gavi de Gavi to compliment, the Tagliolini with white Alba truffles was truly the highlight of our meal. This dish was a true celebration of Italian culinary artistry: the pasta was perfectly al dente, and the generous shavings of white truffle added an earthy, aromatic richness that elevated every bite. The chef’s restraint allowed the delicate flavors to shine, making each mouthful both decadent and refined. Thank you Bellini, we will be back.“

“My favorite restaurant! I've been several times, both to the previous downtown location and to the new location at the Moore and I must say, this new location is perfect for Torno Subito. It's whimsical, creative and inspiring.
The food is amazing (as always) and the service is top tier. Staff is knowledgeable, kind, and makes your experience memorable every time. Drinks are also so great!
I always recommend this place to my friends and family and everyone I've taken / recommended Torno Subito to loves it!
Kudos to the whole team, incredible work!“
