50 Best Italian Restaurants in Miami

“Awesome food ! Incredible atmosphere!!!“

“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!“

“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“

“How beautiful! I’ve lived in the Grove area since I was young, and never knew of this place. We had the Miami spice menu, and the food was delicious and served in sizeable portion. The service was truly out of this world, and the view from the top of the hotel was gorgeous.“

“espectacular 👌 me encantó“

“Great ambiance, special flavors exploding on your palette with every bite, perfect service, live music that isn't cheesy, wow to the wine list. Will be a place I visit often. Great job

Kid-friendliness: Would NOT recommend it for kids“

“An excellent lunch this week at Torno Subito. A lovely rooftop location in the city center (on top of Julia & Henry's) makes for a lovely setting. The food is excellent quality with four courses, perfectly judged in size and flavour: an amuse bouche packed full of flavour, delicious "modern" salad, tagliatelle carbonara a selection of sorbets to finish. The servers were also informative and attentive without being intrusive. Hghly recommend a visit.“

“Perfect Italian cooking. A beautiful view of the bay and Brickell Key. Impeccable service with no need to wait for service.“

“Food was great, Italian atmosphere and great service. Special thanks to our server Mirko“

“Excellence and friendly service along with delicious food and nice ambiance 💕“

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

“you treat your employees disgusting sending an email telling them they "forgot to take their medication" 🤬 is this really how to treat people?“

“This place has a great atmosphere! Staff is on point and the service is too! And the food? It doesn’t get any better than this😊 Do yourself a favor and stop in!“

“The food, service and ambiance get five stars. Everyone smiles and are on top of everything. Juan our server was gracious and attentive. I have been here several times and will keep on coming because of the attention to detail that is lacking in many restaurants in Miami. Thank you for another amazing experience.“

“Mamo is a must if you like sensational food, impeccable service and a stunning setting. The Chef Salvatore, is without a doubt Oscar winning in the Restaurant world. I recommend this restaurant very highly. You will not be disappointed, trust me.“

“amazing service and drinks in Miami's trendiest neighborhood. Highly recommend it. Mangia!“

“Delicious, fresh Italian food Recommend eggplant parmesan, pizza capriciola, and mushroom pappardelle. Beautiful restaurant and patio.“

“Like Mike has quickly become a Grove favorite. We had a gathering here and I’m planning on returning weekly!“

“We had lunch at Felice in Brickell today and it was AMAZING. We drove from Fort Lauderdale and its location is so easy to reach from I-95 and we loved the valet parking so prompt. The restaurant has a wonderful outside dining area, made private by luscious plants, fans, heaters, modern furniture and decor, but we opted to dine inside due to the bad weather. The dining room is quite elegant but contemporary, the tablecloths and silverware on point, which is important for us. The overall service quality was superb, from hostess Manuela's warm reception, to Flavio the manager's exquisite charm, to the skilled waiter's attentiveness, and we even got to meet Chef Luigi to compliment him on each of the dishes we enjoyed. Most importantly, everyone was really Italian and spoke Italian, which was so refreshing, since we are also Italian from the actual Country ! We loved the refined ambiance and relaxed atmosphere which made the authentic Northern Italian dishes taste even better ! Food and drink wise: the Mojito we started with was most delicious ! A Bubbly Prosecco DOC was our choice to enjoy the meal. For appetizers we had Tuna Carpaccio with capers, but it was as fancy as a Tuna Tartar, and scrumptious shrimps in pink sauce with a touch of Jalapeno. For the entrees, we went with the New York strip with Truffle and Mushroom which came inside a fancy copper pan; we were impressed by the very generous portion boasting an aroma and flavor we hardly tasted anywhere else other than Italy, and a classic Branzino al Cartoccio, which came inside the actual "cartoccio" it was baked within, and its freshness and flavor were amazing. Side dishes were delicious too: we ordered char-grilled asparagus and the best home made French Fries EVER! All the food was "clean", fresh, cooked to perfection, with no heavy sauce or seasoning covering/altering the actual flavor of the main ingredients like most "Italian" restaurants do here in Sfla. We appreciated that immensely! We "tried" to end with a nice espresso only.....but they insisted we had a bite of their Tiramisu dessert and we obliged. Obviously, it was delicious too. Hence, as far as REAL Italian restaurants in South Florida are concerned, we recommend this place wholeheartedly, and we will be back very soon to taste more of their dishes. OVERALL : 10 STARS!!!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Out of the last dozen times I’ve been here, they are everything from excellence to exceptional. Service = Outstanding Taste & portion = Outstanding Visual & Smell = Outstanding“

“We celebrated our kids' sixth birthday with a dozen very loud and difficult-to-control children. The staff and the owner were extremely nice and patient and made it one of the best birthdays we've had for any of our kids. This place is awesome. I would give six stars if I could. A+ in every sense. Food, ambience, staff, everything you want in a pizza place. Long live Pummarola“

“very friendly, you feel like family. great service“

“Two nights ago we had dinner at Pasta Wynwood, excellent experience, they received us very attentively, they served us quickly and wonderfully, the white wine was very good, the pasta was fresh and made by them, you can really see the difference! Agnolotti and Taglierini with Anchovies, Exquisite Dessert, cheesecake. Quality, attention, price, 5 star place!
I recommend it 100%“

“J C gives personal service and the food was exquisite!“

“Finally I can say that at Baiocco you eat impeccably… the kitchen has given a positive change… the food was nothing short of delicious !! thank you for the evening“

“This is without a doubt the best lomo saltado in Miami and the smoked salmon, cream cheese and avocado lumpia from another planet. They have different sauces, some better than others. My husband brought it home and I was eager to try more of his creations. Super recommended, the food is excellent, the portions large, the quality of the ingredients A+. Don't forget to try it 305 Foodie is incredibly EXQUISITE!“

“We live locally and decided to stay here for a quick getaway and it became one of our best vacations ever! We actually booked the South Cottage and called to a week before our vacation to see if they have any cottages with two bathrooms instead of just one. We spoke with Eli who was so helpful and professional. He was able to upgrade us to the Rosemary Cottage. Side note: I could not stress how awesome it is to call their number and someone from the front desk is the one who actually answers the phone. It's so convenient than waiting for prompts and long promos before being connect to a person. The Rosemary Cottage is BEAUTIFUL. The decor, the location, the convenience and comfort ARE worth every penny. The rooms are beautifully decorated, clean and the beds are really comfortable. Our kids love the space and the options they had for their room. There are peacocks roaming around the whole property which my kids loved seeing. They also come with two golf carts that you can use throughout the property. The people that work here are very friendly. From the front desk to the bellman, bartender even the person who helped with our beach chairs and always happy to help! We love the beach they have in property because is right in front of the hotel beach restaurant and you can order your food and hangout on the beach without having to walk too far. The food is really good too! Don't be discouraged to order from the restaurants outside hotel property in the island because even their convenience store has good food. They have everything you need, even caviar. : ) They also have a nice place ground where my kids spent the afternoon. If we weren't there, we'd be in the pool or just driving around the island. The ferry was on rotation 24/7 so we had no issues getting in and out of the island. We definitely enjoyed our stay and are already looking forward to going back. So if you want experience Miami without the hustle bustle of downtown during the day and just relax, this is the place to stay in.“

“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.“

“La Martola is a beautiful new Italian restaurant in the ever growing area of Buena Vista. It's a large restaurant with lots of inside and outdoor dining. The food is great - lots of options for appetizers and main courses and a long list of pizzas. We had the burrata salad with soft creamy cheese sprinkled with pistachios, the tagliolini with lemon and the Classico (or margherita) pizza which was very tasty and delicious. There is a nice wine list with lots of wines by the glass. A great experience. We sat outside and the live music was a little loud - perhaps acoustic, rather than electronic music would be better in the space. But a delightful delicious meal that warrants a return visit.“

“Very good every time we go“

“Good food and good service.“

“We came to Miami (3 hr ride) specifically for this restaurant and it was amazing!!! We had a variety of items from their menu guided my our amazing server (Irina) who made the best recommendations. Make sure you add a stop here if you come to visit!“

“There delicious Italian food made fresh and there great service ! And it's family friendly“

“Gem of an establishment! Located in downtown Miami, but once you cross the threshold it’s a world all on its own. A quaint, calm, romantic, and aromatic atmosphere. We were immediately greeted with kindness, attention and excitement. The menu was enthusiastically explained as well as a brief introduction to this fantastic, family owned business. The food was top tier! Amazing! The staff, from entrance to exit, were fabulous and well appointed. This is a MUST if you are in the Miami area. When we come back, we will definitely be back! Chefs kiss“

“I was here for a specific reason, to craft my own pizza, which was NOT on the menu. The women at the front said “You can ask, but I am not entirely sure” and that was good enough for me.The bartender, Chris, was extremely helpful and personable, and I wanted to create my own personal pizza, so he called out a chef to help me.One of the chefs, Tony an experienced foodie from NY, came out to discuss the order I wanted and told me it would be a little pricier as I wanted a “fat sandwich pizza” a staple from where I am in NJ and where I went to college.This pizza is a white pizza with no sauce besides buffalo drizzled over the top piled high with mozzarella cheese, french fries, chicken tender pieces and mozzarella sticks.The pizza was AMAZING, one of the best fat sango’s I had ever eaten, maybe they will put it on their menu for me :-).The price was $35 for this one pizza as the bartender whom was extremely busy accidentally charged me for a cheese pizza + a side of all the toppings. The chef corrected this mistake and comp’d me a bruschetta as he could not charge back what I paid with.Apparently restaurants starting with B in Wynwood have something in common, friendly, experienced staff and fantastic food.I introduce myself to make conversation at every restaurant and Baccano went above and beyond with my experience.“

“This place never disappoints. The setting is intimate the food is amazing and the staff is attentive and warm. Viviana already knows my go to order and is always so welcoming when I go. All the risottos are tasty. The fiocchi is my favorite pasta dish with its unique sweet and savory flavor. I recommend for date night and their lunch specials are great too.“

“Everything about this restaurant is fantastic if you like authentic Italian food made with the best ingredients topped with fabulous service and great wine!“

“It was an evening among friends that we are rarely lucky enough to have everything be perfect, the attention, the quality of the food and the decoration of the place with a tasteful Italian touch, I recommend it 100%. So happy with the place !!!! Will be back soon!!!!!“
