50 Best Italian Restaurants 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!“

“Best authentic Napoletana pizza you can find in Miami. Thought I was back home. Food is fire people. Need to try this place. Love pasta? They do not disappoint. So good. Acacia provided amazing service this last visit. She was very attentive and prompt. The entire staff is great. Many of them speak Italian and make you feel at home.“

“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.“

“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!!!!!“

“Me and my husband Came to Torno Subito to ran away from the rain and Claudia and Victor gave us the best service. We had a reservation at another restaurant but we ended up being late because the ambience and the service is the best and people are so lovely and attentive we wanted to stay here for the rest of the night! Thank you“

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

“Nice place. Good service.“

“Ten out of ten. Mother Wolf Miami delivered one of the best Italian meals I’ve had outside of Italy, honestly, I’d imagine this is close to the real thing.

We started with the panzanella salad, which was fresh and perfectly balanced. The lamb chops were cooked beautifully, and the gnocchi were pillowy soft with incredible flavor. We finished with the tiramisu, which was the perfect ending to the meal.

Our server, Ryan, made the night even better , attentive, knowledgeable, and just genuinely great to have at our table.

Can’t recommend this place enough. Already thinking about when we can go back.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“I had visited for my birthday and it was a great experience. Service was A1. I loved that they had live entertainment that night. Full service bar so you can literally get whatever drink you want. Everything we ate was literally so good. Best spicy rigatoni I’ve had, actually had a little kick. My only complaint is that they promote family style but those dishes are too tiny, nothing about it was plentiful enough to share.“

“Real deal Italian pizza here, fresh ingredients and you can tell they don’t cut corners. Loved the little red vintage car parked inside too, cute touch that gives the whole place character.

Cozy spot, staff were attentive and made us feel welcome. They also do pizza, making classes which sounds like a fun time for a group or even a date. Great meal, great vibe.“

“An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The food was exceptional, made with fresh, high-quality ingredients and beautifully presented. Every dish was full of authentic flavor, and the service was attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the entire meal. The atmosphere was elegant, welcoming, and perfect for any occasion. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for excellent food and outstanding hospitality. I will definitely be coming back!“

“For us, fanatics of authentic Italian food, discovering Bahiablue, a jewel in middle of Coconut Grove is like a fresh; guzzle for our thirst of enjoyments. We met Chef Vincenzo and instantly fell in love with the place decoration, ambiance, service and unforgettable attention. What about the food? It is a 10 stars for us who have travelled to the Amalfi Coast in Italy several times and can appreciate fresh seafood and pasta when we see it and taste it. Here it really feels like you are in the middle of Positano or Sorrento, it really made us felt that way.
We ordered first an amazing ‘crab panzanella’ – a delightful appetizer, then fresh oysters, followed by ‘fiori di zucca’ another Italian delicious thing that melts in your mouth. As a surprise to the Chef, we ordered ‘linguini alla nerano’ with bottarga – an Italian specialty tastier many more times than caviar eggs. If you never have tasted bottarga, you are missing on a great pleasure for sure. For wine, nothing short of beautiful flavors from an amazing white Vermentino di Sardegna. Adding to the feast, we continued with a spectacular ‘rissoto ai frutti di mare’ – a full storm of great flavors for your palate. To seal the night with great colors, they brought us an amazing ‘sgroppino’ – a super delicious prosecco, lemon based drink that melted our hearts.
We had an amazing dining experience, just like having dinner in Marina Piccola bay in Sorrento, Italy. If you’re serious about great talent, traditions, passion and dedication poured on your table, Bahiablue is the perfect spot.
Thank you Vincenzo!“

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

“What a great experience. Everything was so well made. The starters were fresh and well balanced. The tuna tartare and octopus dish were standouts for me. We also had a mushroom special that blew us away. The pastas were amazing. The portions were generous and the dessert was delicious too. What made this even better was the service. Carol (sorry if I misspelled the name!!) was our server and she was amazing. She explained everything really well and was just such a delight. Will definitely be back. Probably one of my favorite meals so far in 2026! This place deserves all the praise!!“

“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“

We really enjoyed our meal and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food and excellent service!“

“One of the best sandwiches I've had. Absolutely loaded with meat, great flavor, and balanced in flavor. But the bread perfectly matches the sandwich. I got the Godfather but you can bet I'm going to try the others that they have. Great service. Very impressed with everything, they deserve to have their brick and mortar shop.“

“Italianità in cucina in Miami Von aussen hätten wir hier nie ein so sympathisches und vor allem feines italienisches Restaurant vermutet. Die Pasta und auch der Fisch waren sehr lecker! Gute Weinauswahl und authentischer italienischer Kaffee. Man kann auch am Nachmittag einfach einen Cappuccino trinken gehen. Insgesamt sehr zu empfehlen.“

“Food great...beer cold....prices great....staff awesome. ....5 stars for good local Italian meal....If you want Olive Garden....then go there that means i will have a table to sit at at Enzos!“

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