50 Best Italian Restaurants in Miami Beach

“Really lovely rustic Italian menu. We had the tasting menu for two with one wine pairing. Everything was excellent: simple, bright, flavorful. It comes with a *wild* amount of food and you get to try 8 dishes in what they call four courses. Definitely a good deal for the price. Waiter was very knowledgeable and the service was great - really noticed the small stuff that most wait staff don't seem to be trained in anymore. A pleasure to eat here.“

“This has been some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had! I’m Italian American so I know lol. Try the arancini and rigatoni alla vodka, you can not be disappointed!“

“The waiter was very friendly. We were thirsty from walking in the sun all day. He kept the water coming. Our glasses were never empty. The veal scaloppini was very good. $105 for four people. we did have a lot of leftovers though.“

“We made a reservation for our Anniversary (24-02-18) after looking at some online reviews in the area we were staying in Miami. SO happy we chose here to celebrate our anniversary! The atmosphere was very inviting, busy yet flowing with a full dining room. Our waiter Andreu was very welcoming asking us if we were there for a special occasion. With our anniversary he provided us each with a glass of champagne! He explained the dinner specials and even brought us a taste of one of the appetizers called Fiocchi Rapers – filled pasta with cheese and pear, with crispy prosciutto and creamy truffle sauce. So delicious! We decided on 2 entrees, the Lasagna Bolognese, and the Crab Ravioli. Absolutely, hands down, some of the best pasta dishes we’ve ever eaten!“

“The best sandwiches in Miami. Delicious and healthy“

“a favorite in Miami Beach. Terrific pizza and great salads!“

“This was one of the best places I’ve ever been to, Rami was my server and when I say I have never gotten better customer service at any other place I really mean it. If you go, make sure to ask for him as the server I recommend it 100%. He’s the best.“

“Gem salad was excellent with fresh greens and just the right amount of dressing. The garganelli with pesto was tasty and the shrimp was cooked just right unlike most Italian place that overcook them and tough to eat. The waiter was very attentive and made us feel like honored guests. Highly recommended.“

“This was my family's first time here as we were visiting Miami and this place is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I chose it as my birthday dinner and our server, Timothy, was amazing! He really knew his stuff and recommended amazing dishes. He talked with our table and checked up on us plenty of times. The meatballs were my favorite part! The resturant also gave us a wonderful sorbet on the house as a birthday treat and I thought that was very kind. Absolutely recommend this place!“

Our waiters were wonderful and made us feel like we walked into an evening in Italy. The food, omg, amazing. We had the pasta that they swirl through the Parmesan Reggiano cheese wheel at our table. Then they proceeded to gently debone and filet out sea bass. Perfection“

“Love this place so much! Staying in Miami Beach for vacation from New York and Deborah, Valentina, Simona, Febe and whole staff are so very sweet!

I have eaten here 3 times since i’ve arrived and they have the best hospitality and the tasteful food selection is beyond perfect!

I highly recommend dining here when you’re in the area. I have eaten the arugula salad, caprese, gnocchi, with Cabernet, cannoli and complimentary bread and oil/vinegar and was so perfect! They hand make their pasta and are so super friendly ❤️.

Deborah is by far the most pure hearted bartender and is the sweetest big hearted person. I’m very grateful to have met these people, they are a great examples of real kindness and spectacular service.

Thank you so very much, i’ll never forget these experiences! ???“

“Posto fantastico dove si può gustare la vera cucina italiana con prodotti fresca e di qualità la amatriciana e un qualcosa di afrodisiaco per il palato consigliassimo. Attilio e un amicone.“

“I, my wife, and toddler recently had wonderful dinner here. My toddler had buttered noodles and eagerly ate the entirely plate of them, which is unusual for her. My wife and I were in good spirits thanks to even better wine. The octopus appetizer was well-prepared and had the perfect texture (not rubbery or chewy). The entrees (I had the lobster linguini) were perfectly cooked and brought promptly. We closed the meal with espressos and tiramisu, both of which were delizioso. Our waiter (Francesco) was prompt, attentive, and gave excellent suggestions. Overall, we all had a wonderful experience here and will certainly return if we are ever back in the area again.“

“Amazing, the best Lasagna and Salmone in Miami. Great service“

“The fish was out of this world fantastic!!! And so was the service. My friend and I both had the branzino fish special. It was cooked to perfection with a touch of olive oil. garlic and lemon. It was fresh and clean, just what we wanted. One of us had french string beans that was the right slight snap; my friend had angel hair pasta with not too much and not too little roasted garlic and oil that was so tasty. The total meal was outstanding as well as the service. I love this restaurant because no matter what you order, it's consistently top notch.“

“When walking through the Lincon in search of food, what caught my attention was the decoration of the terrace, and its very good state of cleanliness. This is why I decided to ask for a table, the staff was very attentive, the waiter (Argentinian) knew how to recommend the dish, perfect temperature, good presentation.“

“Tutto molto buono come in Italia in un ristorante di livello. Tagliatelle ottime, locale accogliente.“

“After reading some reviews we decided to eat here.
We didn't regret it.
The service was very friendly.
The food was very tasty and the portions were big enough to fill you up.
Really great value for money.“

“Friendly service, delicious authentic Italian pizza“

“reviens, c'est bien là bas et tu es parfaite, mais ici c'est nettement moins pire ;-) ;-) et puis tu manques au paysage“

“Amazing smoothie!! The smoothies are made to order!! Had the strawberry mango smoothie and it was made with high quality fruit! My friends ordered the blueberry strawberry flavor and loved it too! would highly recommend this place if you are around!!“

“RUE was most fantastic, her true craft is her talent and ability to go above and beyond. Professional, courteous and very kind, Rue stands out as a genuine person who other staff members can learn from. We look forward to coming back again soon!“

“We loved everything about Sardinia! The delicious Italian food is served perfect portions for sharing, or taking home for leftovers for a tasty snack. We recommend a large antipasto platter, where you choose your gourmet meats and cheeses, accompanied by a very excellent Pino Grigio wine. I suspect Sardinia has a wide array of very excellent wines, if you prefer the reds. My dinner partner enjoyed the Chicken Parmesan, and I very much enjoyed the Beef Bolognese with diced filet mignon. Elegant decor, subdued lighting, and comfortable seating induce relaxed intimacy among guests, while attentive staff rounded out a very enjoyable evening of upscale Italian food, fine wine and conversation, all at an affordable price.“

“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!!“

“Super cozy… very friendly servers Food was serve fast,“

“Best breakfast and pastries. Excellent customer service!“

“Nice little quaint place. We sat outside. The food was delicious, and the service was top notch. Our server, Angie was a doll! Angie made sure our order was perfect and the food came fast. Will definitely visit again our next time in Miami!“
